Item 8.01 Other Events
On May 26, 2022, Artesian Water Company, Inc. (“Artesian Water”), a subsidiary of Artesian Resources Corporation (“Artesian Resources”), completed its
previously announced purchase pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement by and between Artesian Water and Clayton, dated as of February 16, 2022 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), of substantially all of the operating assets of the Town of Clayton’s
(“Clayton”) water system, including Clayton’s exclusive franchise territory and the right to provide water service to Clayton’s existing customers (the “Water System”). Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Clayton transferred to
Artesian Water all of Clayton’s right, title and interest in and to substantially all of the municipal water utility, plant and equipment, associated real property, contracts, easements and permits possessed by Clayton at closing related to the
Water System. The Delaware Public Service Commission approved the transfer of Clayton’s exclusive franchise territory on April 20, 2022.
A copy of the Asset Purchase Agreement, attached as Exhibit 10.2 to Artesian Resources’ Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 11, 2022, is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Asset Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Asset Purchase Agreement. On May 11, 2022, Artesian Water and Clayton
entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Amendment contains certain changes, which individually or in the aggregate do not constitute a material change to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Company intends to
file the Amendment as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2022.
