Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously reported, on June 6, 2005, PNM Resources, Inc. ("PNMR" or the "Company") completed the acquisition of TNP Enterprises, Inc. ("TNP"). The aggregate purchase price included a payment to the previous owner of 4,326,337 shares of PNMR common stock valued at $87.4 million. The 4,326,337 PNMR common shares that were part of the consideration for the acquisition were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and were issued under the private placement exemption. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, PNMR agreed to certain registration rights with respect to the common shares and as such, registered the resale of the shares on Form S-3, as amended, which registration statement became effective on December 5, 2005. Also, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, certain of the partners in the seller of TNP agreed to enter into lock-up agreements with respect to the common shares. Lock-up agreements were executed at closing which provided for a lock up of approximately 50% of the shares until October 6, 2005, and until December 6, 2005 with respect to the remaining approximately 50%. After December 6, 2005, there will be no remaining restrictions on the right of the holders to sell their shares other than compliance with applicable securities laws.
This Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
