Net Element (NASDAQ: NETE) shares are rising premarket after Mullen Technologies, an electric vehicle company, executed a non-binding Letter of Intent with Unlimited Electrical Contractors Corp (UEC) to enter agreements for the purchase of up to 10,000 MX-05 electric vehicles.
Net Element’s share price has benefitted from the deal as the company and Mullen entered a definitive merger agreement back in August. It is a stock-for-stock reverse merger with Mullen’s stockholders receiving most of the outstanding stock in the post-merger company.
UEC is an electrical contractor based in Florida and intends to be the first electrical contractor with an all-electric service fleet. The company said it will execute the purchase of 1,500 MX-05 vehicles for its Florida operations, followed by an additional 8,500 by 2025 for its US West Coast Expansion.
