NAPERVILLE, Ill., Oct 30, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- BWEN | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Broadwind Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: BWEN | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) today announced that it has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to a proposed public offering of 15,000,000 shares of its common stock. In this offering, Broadwind proposes to sell 10,000,000 shares and Tontine Capital Partners, L.P., and certain of its affiliated funds (Tontine), propose to sell 5,000,000 shares. The underwriters have the option to purchase from Tontine and Broadwind CEO, J. Cameron Drecoll, up to an additional 2,250,000 shares of common stock on the same terms and conditions to cover over-allotments, if any.

Broadwind expects to use its anticipated net proceeds from its share of the offering to repay a portion of its outstanding debt and the remainder for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures to grow the Company's services businesses.

Each of Broadwind's executive officers and directors is expected to agree not to transfer shares of Broadwind common stock until ninety days following the pricing of the offering, subject to certain exceptions and the extension of the restricted period under certain circumstances. Accordingly, Mr. Drecoll has terminated his previously filed Rule 10b5-1 sales trading plan for shares of the Company's common stock. Additionally, Tontine Capital Partners, L.P., and certain of its affiliated funds, is expected to agree not to transfer shares of Broadwind common stock until sixty days following the pricing of the offering, subject to certain exceptions and the extension of the restricted period under certain circumstances.
