Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 23, 2016, Islet Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and General Release, dated as of March 23, 2016 (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Progenitor Cell Therapy, LLC (“PCT”),
a subsidiary of NeoStem, Inc., relating to litigation between the Company and PCT. In its lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in April 2014, PCT had alleged various claims, including breach of contract and unjust enrichment, based on the alleged failure of the Company to pay for services and goods provided by PCT under a January 10, 2012 letter agreement (the “Litigation”).
Under the Settlement Agreement, PCT will execute consent judgments in favor of PCT in the amounts of $125,000, $83,000 and $41,000, PCT will, after its receipt of the final settlement payment, take all necessary action to dismiss the Litigation with prejudice, and each party agreed to release and forever discharge the other party for all claims, known or unknown, arising
out of or in connection with the Litigation. As part of the settlement of the Litigation, the Company is required to pay to PCT: (i) $20,000 within one business day of its receipt of a fully executed copy of the Settlement Agreement, (ii) $20,000 within ten business days of its receipt of a fully executed copy of the Settlement Agreement, (iii) $42,000 within 90 days of the payment of the first amount paid in settlement, (iv) $180,000 within 180 days of the payment of the first amount paid in settlement and (v)
$41,000 within one year of the payment of the first amount paid in settlement.
Additionally, the Company has agreed to issue shares of its common stock to PCT as partial consideration for the settlement of the Litigation. Within 90 days of the payment of the first amount paid in settlement, the Company will issue to PCT the number of shares of its common stock having a market value of $7,000, within 180 days of the payment of the first amount paid
in settlement, the Company will issue to PCT the number of shares of its common stock having a market value of $7,000 and within one year of the payment of the first amount paid in settlement, the Company will issue to PCT the number of shares of its common stock having a market value of $6,000. The shares of common stock to be issued as described above will be pursuant to the exemption from registration provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company and PCT expect to enter
into one or more subscription agreements setting forth the terms of the issuance.
Other than in respect of the letter agreement that was the subject of the Litigation, the Litigation itself and the Settlement Agreement, there is no material relationship among the Company or its affiliates and PCT. The foregoing description of the Settlement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Settlement Agreement,
which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
