Item 8.01. Other Events.

This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 1, 2013 (the “Original 8-K”) by Argan, Inc. (the “Company”) solely for the purpose of providing updated information with respect to the disclosure contained therein. This Form 8-K/A does not amend or modify the Original 8-K in any other respect.

On August 1, 2013, Moxie Liberty, LLC (“Moxie Liberty”) entered into an amendment to the agreement covering the sale of its project, the design and construction of an 825 megawatt gas-fired power plant in Pennsylvania, to a third party, which is contingent upon the purchaser securing permanent financing for the plant (the “First Amendment”). The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gemma Power, Inc. (“GPI”), has been supporting Moxie Liberty’s development of this project with the advance of working capital funding. Upon the closing, GPI would receive the repayment of its working capital advances plus accrued interest and the payment of development success fees from the proceeds of the sale.

The Amendment provides that the sale of Moxie Liberty may be abandoned by either party to the sale agreement if the closing of permanent financing for the plant does not occur by the extended date of September 2, 2013.
