Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

The purchase by the Reporting Persons of the Units was effected because of the belief that the Units represented, and continue to represent, an attractive investment. The Spring Mountain Reporting Persons beneficially own the Units as an investment. Subject to the limitations described below in this Item 4, the Spring Mountain Reporting Persons from time to time may decide to increase or decrease their investment in GreenMan through purchases or sales of shares of capital stock of GreenMan in open market or private transactions or otherwise. The timing and amount of any such increase or decrease may depend upon the price and availability of shares of GreenMan’s capital stock, subsequent developments affecting GreenMan, GreenMan’s business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to the Spring Mountain Reporting Persons, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors considered relevant.

The Securities Purchase Agreement

On the Closing Date, SMC Co-Investment, SMC Reserve II, SMC Reserve II Offshore and SMC EP (collectively, the “SMC Purchasers’) along with certain other investors entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with GreenMan whereby the SMC Purchasers acquired units comprised of one share of 10% Convertible Preferred Stock of GreenMan (“Preferred Stock”) and a warrant (“Warrant”) to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock of GreenMan at an initial exercise price of $0.50 per share (the “Units”), from GreenMan in exchange for the purchase price amounts set forth in Item 3 above (the “Securities Purchase Agreement’). On the Closing Date, the Spring Mountain Reporting Persons acquired, in the aggregate, 349 shares of Preferred Stock, which are immediately convertible into 8,725,000 shares of Common Stock, and Warrants exercisable for a total of 8,725,000 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,490,000. The Warrants are exercisable for a five year period commencing on October 30, 2012.

Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, setting forth the rights, preferences and privileges of the Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), GreenMan shall pay a quarterly dividend at a rate of 10% per annum payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock at GreenMan’s option to the holders of the Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock has a stated value of $10,000 per share and is convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.40 per share. The conversion price of the Preferred Stock is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and the number of shares issuable upon conversion is subject to ownership limitations.

In accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Board of Directors of GreenMan (the “Board”) accepted the resignations of Dr. Allen Kahn and Thomas Galvin, and appointed Dr. Avi Faliks, Jamie M. Weston and Neil Braverman as directors of GreenMan, effective as of the Closing Date. Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation, the Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect three directors to the Board and, until March 31, 2013, the holders of Common Stock voting as a separate class shall be entitled to elect four directors to the Board. As of March 31, 2013, the size of the Board shall be reduced to six directors and the holders of Common Stock voting as a separate class shall be entitled to elect three directors to the Board.
