Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 15, 2013, Boomerang entered into a Manufacturing and Licensing Agreement (the “Agreement”) with JBT Corporation (“JBT”), pursuant to which JBT would manufacture all Boomerang automated guided vehicles (“AGVs”) and license certain software to us for use in our robotic parking systems, including a non-exclusive, non-transferable, license to sub-license the software to customers for the duration of each customer contract with Boomerang. In each year from the effective date of May 15, 2013, Boomerang was required to purchase a minimum of 25 AGVs from JBT based on JBT’s cost plus an agreed upon profit. In the event of termination of the Agreement, JBT is obligated to license to Boomerang software for up to three years from the termination date.
The Agreement was terminated by JBT effective May 23, 2014, due to Boomerang not meeting the minimum purchase requirements described above. As previously disclosed in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, with JBT’s knowledge, Boomerang manufactured, assembled, tested and delivered all AGVs for our first RoboticValet project, BrickellHouse, and expects to do so for subsequent projects in which our first-generation AGV design is included.
As mentioned above, under the Agreement, Boomerang has the right to continue to license software through May 22, 2017, and expects to collaborate with JBT on a project-by-project basis going forward.
