Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As of May 17, 2024, Safe and Green Development Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Real Estate Sales Contract with Pigmental, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Pigmental Studios”), dated as of January 31, 2024, as amended as of April 25, 2024, to sell approximately 27 acres of land zoned for a manufacturing facility in St. Mary’s, Georgia (the “St. Mary’s Industrial Site”). Pursuant to the original agreement of sale, the Company was to sell the St. Mary’s Industrial Site to Pigmental Studios for $1.35 million, payable $900,000 in cash and $450,000 by the issuance of a promissory note to the Company, with the closing to occur no later than April 30, 2024. Pursuant to the first amendment to the original agreement of sale, dated as of April 29, 2024, the closing date was amended to one of three dates (April 30, 2024, May 15, 2024 and May 30, 2024) and the purchase price was amended contingent upon the closing date met by Pigmental Studios to $1,290,000, $1,310,000 or $1,375,000, payable $899,000 in cash and the balance by the issuance of a promissory note to the Company. The Second Amendment amends the closing date to no later than June 17, 2024 and amends the purchase price to $1,400,000 payable in cash.
The foregoing description of the Second Amendment and the transaction contemplated by the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Second Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangement of Certain Officers.
On May 20, 2024, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) determined that it was in the best interests of the Company to reconstitute the Board such that each class of the Board consists, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors. For that purpose, the Board accepted the resignation of Christopher Melton as a Class III director and appointed Mr. Melton as a Class I director to hold office until the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”) and until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. In addition, the Board nominated Mr. Melton to stand for re-election at the 2024 Annual Meeting as a Class I director. Following this reconstitution of the Board, the Board consists of three Class I directors, two Class II directors and three Class III directors. Mr. Melton will continue to serve on the Company’s Audit Committee, where he serves as Chairman, and on the Company’s Nominating and Governance Committee.
Additional information about Mr. Melton is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024. As a non-employee director, Mr. Melton will continue to receive the standard compensation available to the Company’s current non-employee directors which for fiscal 2024 consists of the following:
Each director will be given the option to select one of the following three compensation options quarterly (with payments to be made on or about April 1, 2024, July 1, 2024, October 1, 2024 and January 1, 2025):
Option A |
Option B | Option C | ||
● A cash retainer of $20,000, and | ● A cash retainer of $10,000; and | ● A grant of 40,000 RSUs that will vest after three months of continued service by the director. | ||
● A grant of 20,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that will vest after three months of continued service by the director. | ● A grant of 30,000 RSUs that will vest after three months of continued service by the director. |
