ITEM 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Cyclone Power Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Amended and Restated Systems Application License Agreement (the “License”) with Phoenix Power Group LLC (“Phoenix”), which fully replaces the parties’ System Application License Agreement dated July 31, 2009, including all amendments thereto.

 

Under this License, Phoenix has received exclusive, worldwide rights to utilize, market and sell Cyclone engines to produce power specifically and solely from the combustion of used motor oil or other automotive/engine/industrial equipment fluids that have become unsuitable for their original purpose due to the presence of impurities or loss of original properties. The License is for 10 years with one five-year renewal period.

 

Phoenix has agreed to purchase engines from the Company for a period of at least five years at prices to be determined at a future date inclusive of standard industry profit margins. In order to maintain exclusivity for its specific market of power systems that use waste motor oil as their fuel, Phoenix must purchase at least 6,500 engines during the initial five-year period after delivery of the first 10 running prototypes. These prototypes are expected to be delivered to Phoenix in the first half of 2014 at a value of $10,000 per engine. Production runs in fulfillment of the minimum sales quota of 6,500 engines could commence later that year.

 

The Company has retained all rights to sell its engines to any other party throughout the world, provided that the primary use for these engines does not conflict with Phoenix’s specific market of used motor oil fueled power systems. If Phoenix does not meet its engine purchase quotas, or otherwise pays a fee to retain its rights, the Company may compete with Phoenix in this market.

 

The 10hp Waste Heat Engine (WHE) model will be the first engine to be provided to Phoenix; however, all Cyclone engine models are covered under the License. Upon completing certain engine development milestones expected in early 2014, the License will be transferred from Cyclone to Cyclone-WHE LLC to execute the production phase of this program. The Company owns a 72.5% controlling interest in Cyclone-WHE, which was formed to establish manufacturing and sales infrastructures for waste-to-power systems. No stock or other equity was issued to Phoenix in connection with this License, and there are no penalty payments or other compensation due to either party for non-timely delivery of any products or services.
