Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 22, 2008, the subsidiaries of CoaLogix, Inc. (“CoaLogix”), CoaLogix Solutions Inc., CoaLogix Tech Inc., SCR-Tech, LLC and Metallifix LLC (the “CoaLogix Subsidiaries”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Square 1 Bank (the “Bank”). Coalogix is a majority-owned subsidiary of Acorn Energy, Inc. Under the Loan Agreement, the Bank has agreed to provide the CoaLogix Subsidiaries with a three-year term loan of $500,000 ($250,000 of which is available immediately during the first six months and $250,000 of which is available during the following six months) and a three-year $2,000,000 formula based line of credit. Advances under the line of credit may not exceed 80% of the eligible receivables of the CoaLogix Subsidiaries. Interest of prime plus 0.75% on the line of credit is due monthly. All balances of principal and unpaid interest of the line of credit will be due at maturity. During the first 12 months under the term loan, interest of prime plus 1.50% is due monthly. Thereafter for the term loan, principal and interest will be amortized over 24 months in equal monthly installments. The loans are secured by all assets of the CoaLogix Subsidiaries other than intellectual property. Under the Loan Agreement, CoaLogix Subsidiaries must comply with financial and other covenants. The loans will be used for working capital and growth purposes. CoaLogix has entered into an Unconditional Guaranty in favor of the Bank pursuant to which it has guaranteed the obligations of the CoaLogix Subsidiaries under the Loan Agreement.
