Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

The text set forth below under Item 2.03 is incorporated into this Item by this reference.

On July 27, 2012, SmartHeat Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into a secured, revolving credit facility under the terms of a Secured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility” or the “Credit Agreement”) with Northtech Holdings Inc., a British Virgin Islands business corporation (“Northtech”), owned by certain members of the Company’s former management, James Wang, Rhett Wang and Wen Sha. Jane Ai, the Company’s Corporate Secretary is also a part owner of Northtech. The Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to two million U.S. Dollars ($2,000,000) (the “Committed Amount”).  The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized an initial draw under the Credit Facility of $500,000.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by the Company’s deposit accounts and general intangibles located in the United States, its trademarks in the People’s Republic of China  and 35% of its equity interests in each of its wholly-, directly owned subsidiaries.  An origination fee of 4% of the Committed Amount was due to Northtech upon the singing of the Credit Agreement. Borrowings will bear interest at a rate of 1.25% per month, payable monthly, and the Credit Facility will mature on April 30, 2012.  At the Company’s option, the maturity date of the Credit Facility may be extended for up to 4 successive 9 month periods in exchange for an extension fee of 4% of the Committed Amount for each extension. Generally, borrowings may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty, provided however that if the Company prepays any amount due under the Credit Facility from the proceeds of another instrument or agreement of indebtedness, the Company shall pay a 10% prepayment fee.  All amounts due under the Credit Facility may, at the Company’s option, be paid in either cash or restricted shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Credit Agreement shall be submitted to the Company’s stockholders for approval at the Company’s next annual meeting. The foregoing description of the Credit Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, a copy which is attached as Exhibit 10.12 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
