Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
In July 2008, LecTec Corporation (the “Company”) filed a complaint for patent infringement against Prince of Peace Enterprises, Inc. (“POP”) and four other defendants in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. On April 25, 2011, the Company entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) with POP to settle the Company’s claims against POP that POP infringed two of the Company’s patents related to the Company’s medicated patch technology and issued a press release announcing its entry into the Settlement Agreement. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8—K as Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, POP will pay the Company a one—time sum of $225,000 and the Company will grant to POP a fully paid—up, world—wide, non—exclusive and irrevocable license to (a) U.S. Patent Nos. 5,536,263 and 5,741,510 (the “Patents—In—Suit”), (b) any patent that claims priority, directly or indirectly, from the Patents—In—Suit (the “Family Patents”) and (c) any foreign counterparts of the Family Patents, for use in connection with any product or process sold or used by POP, other than products covered by exclusive licenses previously granted to other companies
In addition, under the Settlement Agreement the Company and POP entered into mutual releases of all claims.
The Settlement Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10—Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
