Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On June 2, 2025, Safe and Green Development Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment (the “Amendment”) to Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated February 25, 2025, (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Resource Group US Holdings LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Resource Group”), and the members of Resource Group (the “Equityholders”). The Amendment alters the consideration to be paid by the Company to the Equityholders in connection with the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of Resource Group. Pursuant to the Amendment, the purchase price for the membership interests of Resource Group was amended to be comprised of (i) $480,000 in principal amount of unsecured 6% promissory notes due on the first anniversary of the closing, (ii) the issuance of shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (the “Closing Shares”) equal to 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on the date the Purchase Agreement was executed; and (iii) 1,500,000 shares of a newly designated series of non-voting Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) (which, subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders and The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) not objecting to the conversion and the Company continuing to meet and being eligible to meet the Nasdaq continued listing requirements after conversion), would be convertible into 9,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock). The Amendment also provides that, subject to shareholder approval, the Company will issue an aggregate of 41,182 additional shares of Company common stock to the Equityholders upon the approval of such issuance by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s stockholders’ meeting and provided that the Company continues to meet and is eligible to meet the Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

 

In addition, the Amendment provides that, as soon as possible after the closing, but in any event within fifteen (15) days following the Closing Date, the Board of Directors of the Company shall be reconstituted to consist of seven directors, four of which will be current directors of the Company as designated by the Company and three of which will be directors designated by a majority in interest of the Equityholders; provided, however, that during the period between the closing and such reconstitution, the Company shall not enter into any material agreements without the prior consent of a majority in interest of the Equityholders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.. Each director designated by the Equityholders must have relevant expertise and experience in business operations, finance, real estate development, or other applicable areas aligned with the Company’s goals.

 

The Amendment also provides that on or prior to the twelve-month anniversary of the closing, the Company will use its best efforts to have on file with and approved by the SEC (subject to certain cut backs) an effective registration statement on Form S-1 or any other allowable form providing for the resale by the Equityholders on a pro rata basis of any Company common stock issued to them in connection with the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. The Amendment also removes certain closing conditions.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference. 

 

In connection with the transaction between the Company and Resource Group and the members of Resource Group, the Company intends to file with the SEC a proxy statement for its stockholders to vote on the approval of the issuance of 41,182 shares of the Company’s common stock and the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock issued to the members of Resource Group at closing. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND OTHER DOCUMENTS THAT MAY BE FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY IF AND WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Investors and shareholders will be able to obtain free copies of these documents (if and when available), and other documents containing important information about the Company and Resource Group, once such documents are filed with the SEC through the website maintained by the SEC at http://www.sec.gov. Copies of the documents filed with the SEC by the Company will be available free of charge on the Company’s website at www.sgdevco.com.

Certificate of Designations

 

On June 2, 2025 the Company filed a certificate of designations for the Series A Preferred Stock with the Delaware Secretary of State (the “Series A Certificate of Designations”) which sets forth the following key terms.

Conversion Terms. Subject to, and following, the approval by the Company’s stockholders of the issuance of Company’s common stock upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into six fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.

 

Rank. The Series A Preferred Stock will rank pari passu with the Company common stock with respect to payment of dividends and the consummation of any redemption.

 

Dividend Terms. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to their shares.

 

Liquidation Preference. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive $25.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, plus accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, whether declared or not, before any amount is paid or any assets distributed to holders of shares of the Company ranking junior as to the return of capital to the Series A Preferred Stock. After payment to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock of the amounts so payable to such holders will not be entitled to share in any further payment in respect of the distribution of the assets of the Company.

 

Voting Rights. Except as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock will have no voting rights; provided, however, as long as any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Preferred Stock or alter or amend this Certificate of Designation.

Effective as of May 29, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company approved an amendment (the “Bylaws Amendment”) to the quorum requirement contained in Section 3.5 of the Company’s amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to provide that the holders of thirty-four percent (34%) of the outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote at a stockholders meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

As a result of the acquisition of Resource Group, the Company believes that, as of the date of this Current Report, it is in compliance with NASDAQ’s stockholder’s equity requirement for continued listing, as evidenced by the pro forma balance sheet of the Company as of March 31, 2025 attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report, giving effect to the acquisition.

As previously disclosed, on August 26, 2024, the Company received a letter from Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq stating that the Company was not in compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Rule”) because the stockholders’ equity of the Company of $2,018,263 as of June 30, 2024, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 14, 2024, was below the minimum requirement of $2.5 million.

Pursuant to Nasdaq’s Listing Rules, we had 45 calendar days (until October 10, 2024), to submit a plan to evidence compliance with the Rule (a “Compliance Plan”). We submitted a Compliance Plan within the required time and were granted an extension of up to 180 calendar days to evidence compliance with the Rule.

On February 14, 2025, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that based on the Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC on February 12, 2025, Nasdaq determined that the Company now complied with the stockholders’ equity requirement as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The letter further stated that if the Company failed to evidence compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) upon the filing of its next periodic report it may be subject to delisting.

The stockholders’ equity of the Company as of March 31, 2025, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 15, 2025, was below the minimum requirement of $2.5 million as the Company did not close the acquisition of Resource Group when anticipated and had sold certain joint ventures in anticipation of the Resource Group acquisition.

 

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

(a) Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired

 

The audited financial statements and unaudited interim financial statements of Resource Group required by this Item 9.01(a) will be filed by amendment not later than 71 calendar days after the date on which this Current Report on Form 8-K related to the Closing of the acquisition is required to be filed.

 

(b) Pro Forma Financial Information

 

The unaudited pro forma financial information required by this Item 9.01(b) will be filed by amendment not later than 71 calendar days after the date on which this Current Report on Form 8-K related to the closing of the acquisition is required to be filed.

SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

 

PURSUANT TO SECTION 151 OF THE

DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW

 

The undersigned, Nicolai Brune, does hereby certify that:

 

  1. He is the Chief Financial Officer of Safe and Green Development Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”).  
     
  2. The Corporation is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which have been issued.  
     
  3. The following resolutions were duly adopted by the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”):

 

WHEREAS, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), provides for a class of its authorized stock known as preferred stock, consisting of 5,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value per share, issuable from time-to-time in one or more series;

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized by resolution to provide for the issuance of preferred stock in one or more series, and to establish from time-to-time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, privileges, preferences and relative participating, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof; and

 

WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors, pursuant to its authority as described above, to fix the rights, preferences, restrictions and other matters relating to a series of the preferred stock, which shall consist of 1,500,000 shares of the preferred stock, which the Corporation has the authority to issue.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors does hereby provide for the issuance of a series of preferred stock to be designated “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” and does hereby fix and determine the designation, powers, privileges, preferences and relative participating, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as follows:

 

1. Designation and Number. The shares of such series shall be designated as the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”). The number of authorized shares initially constituting the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be One Million Five Hundred Thousand (1,500,000). The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have a stated value equal to $4.00 per share (”Stated Value”).

 

2. Rank. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall rank pari passu with the Common Stock with respect to payment of dividends and the consummation of any redemption.

 

3. Dividends. The holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to their shares.

 

4. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up; Certain Mergers, Consolidations and Asset Sales. Payments to Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid, with respect to each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding held by the holder, out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount in cash per share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock equal to the Stated Value (the amount payable pursuant to this sentence is hereinafter referred to as the “Liquidation Value”). After payment of the Liquidation Value as set forth above, the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and the holders thereof shall have no further rights as holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

5. Voting. Except as otherwise required by law, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights; provided, however, as long as any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or alter or amend this Certificate of Designation.

 


 

6. Conversion. The holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows:

 

(a) Right to Convert. Subject to, and following, the approval by the Corporation’s stockholders of the issuance of Corporation’s Common Stock upon the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into six (6) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Ratio”).

 

(b) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of a share of Common Stock, which shall be the last reported closing sale price of a share of Common Stock on the Conversion Date if the Common Stock is then listed and trading on a Trading Market or, if the Common Stock is not then so listed and trading, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. Whether or not fractional shares would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.

 

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

 

(i) Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall effect conversions by providing the Corporation with a written notice of conversion in the form of Annex A hereto (a “Notice of Conversion”) on the Trading Day on which such holder wishes to effect such conversion (the “Conversion Date”). Each Notice of Conversion shall specify the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted, the applicable Conversion Ratio and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued. The shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued, and the holder or any other Person so designated to be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date of delivery to the Corporation of the Notice of Conversion. To effect conversions of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, a holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to the Corporation unless all of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case such holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock promptly following the Conversion Date at issue. Conversions of less than the total amount of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by a certificate held by the holder will have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holder by an amount equal to the number so converted, as if the original stock certificate(s) were cancelled and one or more new stock certificates evidencing the new number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were issued; provided, however, that in such cases the holder may request that the Corporation deliver to the holder a certificate representing such non-converted shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; provided, further, that the failure of the Corporation to deliver such new certificate shall not affect the rights of the holder to submit a further Notice of Conversion with respect to such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and, in any such case, the holder shall be deemed to have submitted the original of such new certificate at the time that it submits such further Notice of Conversion.

 

(ii) Not later than two (2) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting holder the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such shares of Common Stock are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable holder by the Share Delivery Date, the holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such shares of Common Stock, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to the holder any original Series A Convertible Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation and the holder shall promptly return to the Corporation the shares of Common Stock issued to such holder pursuant to the rescinded Notice of Conversion.

 

(iii) The Corporation shall at all times when the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, free from preemptive rights, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Articles of Incorporation.

 

(iv) All shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and to vote, shall immediately cease and terminate on the Conversion Date at the time of conversion, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor, to receive payment in lieu of any fraction of a share otherwise issuable upon such conversion and payment of any dividends declared but unpaid on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and canceled and return to the status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation.

(v) The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid.

 

(d) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately adjusted so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately adjusted so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

(e) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Corporation at any time or from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Ratio then in effect by a fraction.

 

(1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

 

(2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;

 

provided, however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend shall not be fully paid or if such distribution shall not be fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Ratio shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date, and thereafter the Conversion Ratio shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(e) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock which are convertible, as of the date of such event, into such number of shares of Common Stock as is equal to the number of additional shares of Common Stock being issued with respect to each share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution.

 

(f) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If, at any time on or after the Original Issue Date, the Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for below), the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such shares into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, as would be received by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change.

 

(g) Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to another corporation at any time on or after the Original Issue Date other than a transaction covered by paragraphs (d),(e) or (f) of this Section 6 (each, a “Transaction”), then following such Transaction, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible (or shall be converted into a security which shall be convertible) into the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon conversion of such share immediately prior to such Transaction would have been entitled upon consummation of such Transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Section 6(g) with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 6(g) (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Conversion Ratio applicable to such series) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Corporation will not effect any Transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the surviving party, if other than the Corporation, shall agree to assume the obligation to deliver to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock such shares of stock or other securities or property to which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders are entitled.

The Corporation shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (but in any event not later than 10 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Ratio then in effect, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at Law for any such breach would be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is reasonably requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Note against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Note.

Exhibit 99.1

 

 

Safe and Green Development Corporation Achieves Strategic Milestone with Acquisition of Resource Group

 

MIAMI, FL – June 3rd, 2025 – Safe and Green Development Corporation (NASDAQ: SGD) (“SGD” or the “Company”), a publicly traded real estate and development company, today announced it has completed its acquisition of Resource Group US Holdings LLC (“Resource Group”), a next-generation environmental solutions company focused on transforming organic green waste materials into engineered soil and mulch products.

 

This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in SGD’s realignment toward revenue-generating operations. Through this transaction, SGD has acquired Resource Group’s integrated operational platform, including a permitted composting facility, two green waste aggregation sites, and a transportation fleet that collectively streamlines the collection, processing, and distribution of environmentally friendly soil solutions.

 

About Resource Group

 

Resource Group operates Resource Group US LLC (“Resource Group US”), an advanced engineered soils and compost business, as well as Zimmer Equipment, a regional logistics and transportation business. Resource Group US is a vertically integrated platform specializing in organics recycling and compost innovation, providing closed-loop, zero-landfill solutions for diverse sectors including municipalities, landscape contractors, golf courses, and institutional land managers. Leveraging an extensive logistics network and controlled year-round operations, the company offers reliable and cost-effective organic waste management and feedstock aggregation

 

Resource Group US applies to the organic biomass SURGRO™, a proprietary low-carbon substrate engineered as a sustainable alternative to peat-based and synthetic horticultural mixes. Utilizing exclusive kinetic-convection grinding and micronization technology licensed from Microtec, SURGRO™ transforms organic biomass into biologically active, high-performance substrate ideal for professional horticulture, soil restoration, green infrastructure, and controlled-environment agriculture. This innovation significantly reduces environmental impact, supports compliance with emerging “peat-free” regulations, and offers operational benefits through local sourcing, circular economy practices, and optimized resource utilization.

 

Seamless Integration and Shared Vision

 

The Resource Group team will continue to operate in their current roles and will collaborate with SGD’s leadership to help ensure a seamless transition. This operational continuity will support the integration of both companies’ systems and seek to accelerate the development of additional market opportunities.

 


 

 

“The acquisition of Resource Group represents a milestone in the Company’s strategic direction, adding significant revenues and growth potential to our core business,” said David Villarreal, Chief Executive Officer of SGD. “We are now focused on scaling the existing revenue, delivering impact, and creating shareholder value. We believe Resource Group’s operational excellence and innovative environmental technologies are a perfect fit for that vision. Together, we are building a greener future.”

 

In connection with the closing of the acquisition of Resource Group, SGD issued to the members of Resource Group (the “Equityholders”) an aggregate of: (i) 376,818 shares of SGD’s common stock, representing 19.99% of SGD’s issued and outstanding shares on the initial execution date of the Resource Group Membership Interest Purchase Agreement; (ii) 1,500,000 shares of a newly designated series of non-voting Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) (which, subject to the approval of SGD’s stockholders, will be convertible into 9,000,000 restricted shares of SGD’s common stock); and (iii) $480,000 in principal amount of unsecured 6% promissory notes due on the first anniversary of the closing. In addition, SGD agreed to issue an additional 41,182 shares of SGD’s common stock, subject to the approval of SGD’s stockholders.

 

SGD has agreed that as soon as possible after the closing, but in any event within fifteen (15) days following the closing date, its board of directors will be reconstituted to consist of seven directors, four of which will be current directors of SGD as designated by SGD and three of which will be directors designated by a majority in interest of the Resource Group Equityholders.

 

In connection with the transaction between the Company and Resource Group and the members of Resource Group, the Company intends to file with the SEC a proxy statement for its stockholders to vote on the approval of the issuance of 41,182 shares of SGD’s common stock and the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock issued to the members of Resource Group at closing.. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND OTHER DOCUMENTS THAT MAY BE FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY IF AND WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Investors and shareholders will be able to obtain free copies of these documents (if and when available), and other documents containing important information about the Company and Resource Group, once such documents are filed with the SEC through the website maintained by the SEC at http://www.sec.gov. Copies of the documents filed with the SEC by the Company will be available free of charge on the Company’s website at www.sgdevco.com.
