Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Private Placement
     On December 21, 2007, Solar Power, Inc. (“Solar Power” or the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) in connection with a private placement of its securities to certain institutional and accredited investors for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $11.7 million, before placement agent fees and offering expenses of approximately $150,000. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the investors purchased an aggregate of 4,513,911 shares of Common Stock of the Company (“Common Shares”) at a price of $2.60 per share. Additionally, the investors were issued warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 1,351,164 shares of Solar Power common stock at an exercise price of $3.90 per share. The Warrants have a term of 5 years, and are exercisable beginning on June 20, 2008.
     Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 20 days following the last closing of the sale of Common Shares and shares underlying the Warrants, covering the resale of those shares by the investors. Each of the Company and the investors has agreed to indemnify the other party and certain affiliates against certain liability related to the registration statement.
     Needham & Company, LLC (“Needham”) served as lead placement agent and Roth Capital Partners, LLC (“Roth”) served as co-placement agent for the transaction. Needham received a customary fee equal to 5.5% of the gross proceeds received from the investors and warrants to purchase 3.0% of the total number of Common Shares sold at an exercise price per share of $3.90 Roth received a customary fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds received from the investors.
     The foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, attached as an Exhibit hereto, and which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The issuance of Common Shares was completed in accordance with the exemption provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Each of the investors represented that it is an accredited investor, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, and that it was acquiring the securities for its own account, not as nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act.
