Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The information contained in Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented with the following information:

On July 31, 2016, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), among the Issuer, Tesla Motors, Inc. (Tesla) and D Subsidiary, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Tesla (Merger Sub), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer (the Merger), with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Tesla. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that at the effective time of the Merger, each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than treasury shares owned by the Issuer or shares owned by Tesla or Merger Sub) will be converted into the right to receive 0.110 shares of common stock, par value $.001, of Tesla.

The closing of the Merger is subject to certain conditions and the Merger Agreement may be terminated by the parties thereto in certain circumstances. The full text of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B and is incorporated herein by reference.


Also on July 31, 2016, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement by the parties thereto, Mr. Musk, solely in his individual capacity as a holder of Common Stock and not in any other capacity, and the Elon Musk Revocable Trust dated July 22, 2003 (together with Mr. Musk, the Stockholders) entered into a Voting and Support Agreement (the Voting Agreement) by and among the Issuer and the Stockholders. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, among other things:

 

  (i) the Stockholders agreed that they will vote the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them in favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, unless the Issuers board of directors withdraws its recommendation with respect to the Merger Agreement and the Merger in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement; and

 

  (ii) in the event that the Issuer terminates the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a binding agreement with respect to an alternative proposal for the acquisition of the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Stockholders agreed that they will vote the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them in favor of, or tender the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them with respect to, that alternative proposal, as applicable, in the same proportion as all other shares of Common Stock are voted in favor of, or tendered with respect to, that alternative proposal.

In addition, the Stockholders agreed that in the event they transfer shares of Common Stock (other than by way of charitable gifts or donations) and do not retain voting power over such shares but either (i) remain a beneficial owner of such shares or (ii) retain the economic benefits of such shares, the transferee must agree in writing to the terms of the Voting Agreement by executing and delivering a joinder agreement.

The Voting Agreement automatically terminates upon the earliest of:

 

  (i) with respect to the Stockholders obligations in respect of the Merger Agreement and the Merger, (A) the effective time of the Merger, (B) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, and (C) the written agreement of the Stockholders and the Issuer to terminate the Voting Agreement; and

 

  (ii) with respect to the Stockholders obligations in respect of an alternative proposal for the acquisition of the Issuer, (A) the effective time of any merger or other transaction of the Issuer provided for in the binding agreement that provides for that alternative proposal or (B) the termination of the binding agreement that provides for that alternative proposal in accordance with its terms.

The Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C and is incorporated herein by reference.
