Item 1.01

Entry Into a Definitive Material Agreement.

Triplecrown Acquisition Corp. (“Triplecrown”) today announced it has entered into an agreement (the “Victory Agreement”) with Victory Park Capital Advisors, LLC pursuant to which funds managed by Victory Park or other purchasers acceptable to Victory Park and Triplecrown (collectively, “Victory Park”) will use their reasonable best efforts to purchase up to an aggregate of approximately 15.2 million shares of Triplecrown’s common stock from third parties prior to the Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on October 21, 2009, at which special meeting Triplecrown stockholders will consider and vote upon the proposed transaction between Triplecrown and Cullen Agricultural Technologies, Inc. (“Cullen Agritech”). Upon consummation of the proposed transaction, (i) Triplecrown will merge with and into Cullen Agricultural Holding Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Triplecrown (“CAH”), with CAH surviving the merger and becoming the new publicly-traded corporation of which the present holders of Triplecrown securities will be security holders by reason of the automatic exchage of their Triplecrown securities for common stock and warrants of CAH, and (ii) Triplecrown Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of CAH, will merge with and into Cullen Agritech with Cullen Agritech surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of CAH. Victory Park is not an affiliate of any of Triplecrown, CAH, its officers and directors and/or their respective affiliates, or Cullen Agritech or their officers and directors and/or their respective affiliates. It is anticipated that Victory Park will effect purchases of Triplecrown’s common stock through independent, privately negotiated transactions with third parties who are institutions or other sophisticated investors that have voted against or indicated an intention to vote against the Acquisition. Pursuant to the Victory Agreement, Triplecrown will pay Victory Park a fee of 1.0% of the value of all Triplecrown shares purchased by Victory Park from third parties up to $50 million, 0.8% of the value of all Triplecrown shares purchased by Victory Park from third parties from between $50 million to $100 million and 0.5% of the value of all Triplecrown shares purchased by Victory Park from third parties above $100 million. All shares purchased as a result of this Victory Agreement will be voted in favor of each of the stockholder proposals to be presented at the Special Meeting of Stockholders, which proposals are set forth in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, dated October 13, 2009, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). In connection with each purchase of Triplecrown shares by Victory Park pursuant to the Victory Agreement, Victory Park and Triplecrown will enter into a stock purchase agreement (each, a “Victory Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Triplecrown will agree to purchase the Triplecrown shares from Victory Park at a price equal to the aggregate purchase price paid by Victory Park for the Triplecrown shares plus the fees described above. No funds other than those payable to Victory Park may be released from the trust account containing the net proceeds of Triplecrown’s initial public offering following the consummation of the proposed transaction until Triplecrown has paid Victory Park pursuant to the Victory Purchase Agreements in full. Although Victory Park has a reasonable best efforts obligation to purchase Triplecrown shares pursuant to the Victory Agreement, there can be no assurance that any such purchases will be made. Such purchases, if made, would increase the likelihood that a majority of Triplecrown’s outstanding shares of common stock will be voted in favor of the proposed transaction.

Attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 is a copy of the Victory Agreement, which is incorporated herein by referenced.

Additionally, as of the close of business on October 19, 2009, Triplecrown had also entered into agreements to purchase approximately 3.9 million of the shares of its common stock sold in its initial public offering (“Public Shares”), in privately negotiated transactions from 8 stockholders who would otherwise vote against Triplecrown’s proposed transaction with Cullen Agritech described in its proxy statement/prospectus dated October 13, 2009, for an aggregate of approximately $38.5 million. Pursuant to such agreements, the holders have agreed to give Triplecrown’s management proxies to vote their Public Shares in favor of the merger proposal, which will revoke any prior proxies voted against the proposal. It is possible that further such agreements may be entered into prior to the special meeting of stockholders on similar terms. The closing of such purchases will be effected on the date the merger is closed, out of the funds that are presently in Triplecrown’s trust account and will be released as a result of the merger.

A press release relating to all of the foregoing agreements is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
