On November 30, 2017, the Issuer entered into a joint venture agreement, dated November 30, 2017 (the “Joint Venture Agreement”), with CNHTC and Sinotruk Global Village Investment Limited, a Hong Kong based limited liability company (“SGVIL”), in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement.

The purpose of the JV was to design, produce, manufacture, market and sell commercial electric motor systems with transmission related motors in the electric vehicle market in China and to work to sell mutually developed E-axle products globally. Under the Joint Venture Agreement, the Issuer acquired a 25% equity interest in the JV with the option to increase its ownership interest to 33% beginning after the first anniversary of the agreement through the third anniversary, at a price equal to the then-market price of the JV shares. The initial total capital of the JV was $24 million, with UQM contributing $6 million. Each party was scheduled to contribute 16.7% of its capital contribution by December 31, 2017, 33.3% by June 30, 2018, and the remaining 50% by December 31, 2018, but none of these actions were completed. The proceeds of the initial capital contribution are used primarily for acquisition of manufacturing facilities and related infrastructure and employment of key personnel. The board of directors of the JV consists of five directors, with one of the directors to be nominated by the Issuer and the remaining directors nominated by CNHTC and SGVIL.

The scope of the license is limited to the manufacture and sale of UQM products in China, although the parties may in the future jointly develop and sell electric motor, E-axle and integrated motor and transmission products manufactured by the JV Entity outside of China. The license grant included the right to use Issuer’s patents, copyrights, technical documentation and related knowhow related to such products as required for the manufacture and sale of these products in the commercial vehicle market in China.
