Box 9046 Waltham, Massachusetts 02454-9046 (Address of principal executive offices) (Zip Code) Registrant's telephone number including area code: (781) 622-1000 FORM 8-K THERMO TERRATECH INC. Item 2. Disposition of Assets On March 6, 2000, TPST Soil Recyclers of California, Inc. ("TPST"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of ThermoRetec Corporation, a majority-owned subsidiary of Thermo TerraTech Inc. (the "Company"), sold all of the assets of its soil-remediation facility located at the West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill in Contra Costa County, California (the "Facility") to Nove Investments I, LLC, a California limited liability company (the "Buyer"). The Facility is in the business of providing soil-remediation services. The assets sold in the transaction include all rights under certain contracts, the permits possessed by the Facility and fixed assets and equipment used at the Facility. The Buyer assumed all liabilities and obligations under the assumed contracts and all liabilities and obligations relating to the land and building where the Facility operates, including all environmental liabilities. The purchase price for the assets was $400,000 in cash, of which $250,000 was placed in escrow. The release of the escrowed funds to TPST is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain post-closing conditions, primarily the achievement of fuel efficiency targets for certain equipment. If certain of the post-closing conditions are not satisfied, some or all of the escrowed funds will be returned to the Buyer. The purchase price of the assets was determined by the parties in arms-length negotiations. In connection with the transaction, the Operating Agreement by and among TPST, West County Landfill and West Contra Costa County Sanitary Landfill relating to the operation of the Facility was terminated and the Company was released from its guaranty of TPST's performance obligations under the Operating Agreement. TPST will, however, continue to operate the Facility on the Buyer's behalf for a period not to exceed three months after the closing under a management agreement pursuant to which TPST will be reimbursed by the Buyer for its "Allowable Costs" as that term is defined in the agreement. 2 FORM 8-K THERMO TERRATECH INC.
