Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 28, 2015 and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on March 24, 2017.
Unless otherwise indicated in this Current Report, all the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), share and per share information, including price per share information, in this Current Report gives effect to the reverse split of our Common Stock at a ratio of 130-to-1 effectuated on March 24, 2017 (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
Item 1.01
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
As previously reported, on December 23, 2015, the Company completed an offering with six investors (the “Holders”), thereby issuing USD $3,000,000 of our two-year 11% Senior Debentures (the “Debentures”) and warrants to purchase up to 61,544 shares of Common Stock, with 50% of such shares exercisable at a price per share of $6.50 ($0.05 on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis) and the other 50% of such shares exercisable at price per share of $9.75 ($0.075 on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis) (all such warrants, the “Warrants”). On March 24, 2017, the Company and five of the six Holders of the Debentures, representing an aggregate principal balance of USD $2,000,000, amended the Debentures to provide that some or all of the principal balance, and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, is convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Holders’ election (such amended Debentures, the “Convertible Debentures”). The Debentures matured on December 22, 2017 (the “Original Maturity Date”).
Between December 22, 2017 and December 28, 2017, the Company and the Holders entered into a letter agreement dated December 21, 2017 (the “Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which the Holders agreed to extend the Original Maturity Date to April 3, 2018 (the “Extended Maturity Date”), and the Company agreed to (a) pay to the Holders an additional five percent (5%) interest payment on the principal balance of their Debentures totaling, in the aggregate, USD $150,000, of which USD $30,000 was paid and the remaining $120,000 will be paid on the Extended Maturity Date; (b) amend the Warrants to so that the exercise price of each is equal to the December 21, 2017 closing price of the Common Stock on the OTCQB Venture Marketplace (the “New Exercise Price”); and (c) issue to the Holders, pro rata based on their respective investments in the Debentures, five-year warrants to purchase, in the aggregate, up to 224,550 shares of Common Stock at the New Exercise Price (the “New Warrants”). The Convertible Debentures will continue to be convertible in accordance with the terms thereof.
As of December 22, 2017, Five of the six Holders and the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Senior Debenture and the remaining Holder and the Company entered into a First Amendment to Senior Debenture, all such amendments being on substantially the same terms, pursuant to which the Original Maturity Date was modified to the Extended Maturity Date (collectively, the “Debenture Amendments”). As of the same date, all Holders and the Company entered into a First Amendment to $0.05 Warrant and First Amendment to $0.075 Warrant, all such amendments being on substantially the same terms, pursuant to which the exercise price of the Warrants was modified to be equal to the New Exercise Price (collectively, the “Warrant Amendments”). Lastly, on the same date, the Company issued the New Warrants to the Holders.
The foregoing descriptions of the Letter Agreement, form of Debenture Amendments, form of Warrant Amendments and form of New Warrants do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Letter Agreement, form of Debenture Amendments, form of Warrant Amendments and form of New Warrants filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
The Company is providing this report in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the notice contained herein does not constitute an offer to sell the Company’s securities, and is not a solicitation for an offer to purchase the Company’s securities. The securities offered have not been registered under the Securities Act, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
Item 3.02
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Reference is made to the disclosure set forth under Item 1.01 above, which disclosure is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company has sold the Securities in a private transaction in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder since, among other things, the above transaction did not involve a public offering. Additionally, the Company relied on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The Holders had access to information about the Company and their investments, took the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities. Upon issuance, the resale of the securities will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
Item 9.01

Capitalized terms used in this letter agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Senior Debenture or the Warrants, as the case may be.
Thank you for agreeing to extend the Maturity Date of your Senior Debenture to April 3, 2018 (the “Maturity Date Extension”). We appreciate your cooperation in this regard and, in turn, agree to the following:
(i) Interest Payment under Senior Debenture: Blue Sphere shall make two (2) payments totaling an aggregate of five percent (5%) of the total principal invested by your group, or $3,000,000 (the “Group”). Accordingly, we shall pay an aggregate of $30,000 upon the execution of this letter agreement by all members of the Group, and an additional payment of $120,000 in the aggregate on April 3, 2018, the new maturity date of your Senior Debenture; such payment being in addition to re-payment of the Principal Amount. The interest payments made pursuant to this letter agreement shall be on a pro rata basis to each of you, based on your investment relative to the other members of the Group, as more fully detailed on Schedule A attached hereto.
(ii) Repricing of Warrant Exercise Prices: Blue Sphere shall amend your Warrants to reflect new Exercise Prices equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 21, 2017 (“December 21st Closing Price”). Specifically, each $0.05 Warrant and $0.075 Warrant issued to you in connection with the December 2015 Offering shall be repriced in accordance with this section (ii).
(iii) New Warrant : Blue Sphere shall issue new warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 224,550 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price equal to the December 21st Closing Price (the “New Warrants”). The New Warrants shall be issued on a pro rata basis to each of you, based on your investment relative to the other members of the Group, as more fully detailed on Schedule A attached hereto.
In connection with consummating the foregoing, please find attached to this letter agreement the Second Amendment to Senior Debenture (except for Mr. Haseley who shall receive a First Amendment to the Senior Debenture), First Amendment to $0.05 Warrant, First Amendment to $0.075 Warrant and a New Warrant, attached hereto as Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C, and Exhibit D, respectively. Each of these documents has been signed by the Company. Therefore, please countersign each where indicated and return a copy to us, along with your countersignature to this letter agreement. We shall provide to you a set of all closing documents, including original copies of the securities and payment of the interest in section (i) to you, as soon as possible, following receipt of countersigned documents from all members of the Group.

W-DEC-2017-___ |
ISSUANCE DATE: |
December 22, 2017 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED , BLUE SPHERE CORPORATION, as of December 22, 2017 (the “ Issuance Date ”) a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), hereby certifies that ________________, or its registered assigns (the “ Warrant Holder ”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company [___] shares (the “ Warrant Shares ”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “ Common Stock ”), exercisable at price per share of $1.60 per share (the “ Exercise Price ”). This Warrant may be exercised any time after issuance through and including the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “ Expiration Date ”), subject to the following terms and conditions set out in this Warrant.
1. Registration of Warrant . The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “ Warrant Register ”), in the name of the record Warrant Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Warrant Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Warrant Holder, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
2. Investment Representation . The Warrant Holder by accepting this Warrant represents that the Warrant Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account or the account of an affiliate for investment purposes and not with the view to any offering or distribution and that the Warrant Holder will not sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or the underlying Warrant Shares in violation of applicable securities laws. The Warrant Holder acknowledges that the certificates representing any Warrant Shares will bear a legend indicating that they have not been registered under the Act and may not be sold by the Warrant Holder except pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements of the Act and in accordance with federal and state securities laws. If this Warrant was acquired by the Warrant Holder pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Act afforded by Regulation S thereunder, the Warrant Holder acknowledges and covenants that this Warrant may not be exercised by or on behalf of a Person during the one year distribution compliance period (as defined in Regulation S) following the date hereof. “ Person ” means an individual, partnership, firm, limited liability company, trust, joint venture, association, corporation, or any other legal entity.

3. Validity of Warrant and Issue of Shares . The Company represents and warrants that this Warrant has been duly authorized and validly issued and warrants and agrees that all of Common Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, when issued upon such exercise, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company further warrants and agrees that during the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
4. Registration of Transfers and Exchange of Warrants .
(a) Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant, the Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company at the office specified in or pursuant to Section 10. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a “ New Warrant ”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Warrant Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a Warrant Holder of a Warrant.
(b) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Warrant Holder to the office of the Company specified in or pursuant to Section 10 for one or more New Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder. Any such New Warrant will be dated the date of such exchange.
5. Exercise of Warrants .
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time from and after the Issuance Date and through and including the Expiration Date, for such number of Warrant Shares as is indicated in the form of Election to Purchase, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A . If less than all of the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this Warrant are exercised at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by this Warrant. At 5:00 P.M., New York time on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value.
(b) Exercise of this Warrant shall be made upon surrender of this Warrant with an Election to Purchase in the form attached hereto (or attached to such New Warrant), duly completed and signed to the Company, at its address set forth in Section 10.
(c) A “ Date of Exercise ” means the date on which the Company shall have received (i) this Warrant (or any New Warrant, as applicable), with an Election to Purchase in the form attached hereto (or attached to such New Warrant), appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Warrant Holder to be purchased, as set forth herein.
2
(d) Payment upon exercise may be made at the written option of the Warrant Holder either by cashless exercise, as set forth in Section 6, or in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate purchase price, for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Election to Purchase (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of Warrant Shares issuable to the Warrant Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Warrant Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares determined as provided herein.
(e) The Company shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) business days after the Date of Exercise as defined herein, issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Warrant Holder and in such name or names as the Warrant Holder may designate (subject to the restrictions on transfer described in the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant), a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, with such restrictive legend as required by the Act, as applicable. Any person so designated by the Warrant Holder to receive Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Date of Exercise of this Warrant.
6. Cashless Exercise .
(a) If at any time prior to the Expiration Date there is not an effective registration statement on file with the SEC covering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Holder, then at such time this Warrant may also be exercised by means of a cashless exercise. In such event, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, together with a notice of cashless exercise, and the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
X = Y (A-B)/A
where:
X | = | The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder. |
Y | = | The number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised. |
A | = | The average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the Date of Exercise. |
B | = | The Exercise Price. |
(b) For purposes of Rule 144 of the Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Warrant Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been commenced, on the issue date. Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, the Warrant Holder is limited in the amount of this Warrant it may exercise.
3
7. Fractional Shares . The Company shall not be required to issue or cause to be issued fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant. The number of full Warrant Shares that shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrants Shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 7, be issuable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall, at its option, (i) pay an amount in cash equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction or (ii) round the number of Warrant Shares issuable, up to the next whole number.
8. Exercise Price Adjustments . The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 8. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued rights or warrants to acquire or otherwise sell or distribute shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price then, forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price (calculated to the nearest one hundredth of a cent) determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received (or to be received, assuming exercise or conversion in full of such rights, warrants and convertible securities) for the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock would purchase at such Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the issuance of such additional shares.
9. No Registration; Compliance with Reporting Requirements . The Company shall take all actions, including timely filing all reports and other documents with the SEC, necessary for the Warrant Holder to, and will refrain from taking any actions which would prevent the Warrant Holder from being able to, sell or transfer the Warrant Shares (a) obtained by means of a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 9 within six (6) months following the Issuance Date or (b) otherwise obtained by exercise of this Warrant within six (6) months following the Date of Exercise.
10. Notice . All notices, requests, demands, claims and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by certified or registered mail (first class postage pre-paid), guaranteed overnight delivery, or facsimile transmission if such transmission is confirmed by delivery by certified or registered mail (first class postage pre-paid) or guaranteed overnight delivery, to the following addresses (or to such other addresses which such party shall subsequently designate in writing to the other party):
