ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
ITEM 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities
On April 29, 2010, CelLynx Group, Inc. (“the Company”), entered into a Master Global Marketing and Distribution Agreement (the “M&D Agreement”) with Dollardex, Corp. a Panama corporation (“Dollardex”).
An overview and summary of the M&D Agreement between the Company and Dollardex follows. The summaries of the terms and conditions of the M&D Agreement do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the M&D Agreement attached as an exhibit hereto.
By way of background, the Company and Dollardex had previously entered into a certain Joint Venture Agreement pursuant to which the Company granted to Dollardex and certain JV Companies (as defined in the Joint Venture Agreement) exclusive distribution rights of the Company’s products in a designated territory (the “Prior Agreement”). That agreement was then terminated by an agreement dated July 22, 2008, which is now being amended by the M&D Agreement.
Pursuant to the M&D Agreement, the Company appointed Dollardex as the independent, exclusive distributor of the Company’s products, specifically the 5BARz™ and all related accessories, if any, and any and all future products of the Company (the “Products”), in and limited to the following nine (9) regions: Canada, South America, Europe, Middle East, China, India, Australia, Africa, and South East Asia or those countries which may be expanded from time to time by mutual agreement by the Parties to include other countries (the “Territory”). The term of the M&D Agreement is perpetual, although the agreement may be terminated pursuant to the terms of the M&D Agreement.
Except for the limited right to appoint other dealers to market and distribute the Products as contemplated in the M&D Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Dollardex has no right to sublicense the rights set forth in the M&D Agreement. Additionally, subject to Dollardex’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the M&D Agreement, during the term of the M&D Agreement, the Company will not appoint another distributor of the Products in the Territory.
Pursuant to the M&D Agreement, the Company granted to Dollardex an exclusive, non-transferable license to use the trade names, trademarks, logos and designations in or associated with the Products, as specified in the M&D Agreement, solely in connection with Dollardex’s marketing, promotion and distribution of the Products within the Territory. Additionally, the Company granted an exclusive license for Latin America and Canada to Dollardex for the CelLynx Road Warrior unit and any and all accessories.
Dollardex’s obligations under the M&D Agreement include:
| - | Dollardex will (a) sell and distribute the Products directly to resellers or end users of the Products in the Territory, or (b) sell and distribute the Products to Dealers throughout the Territory for resale by such Dealers. |
| - | Dollardex will develop a network of Dealers in the Territory for the introduction, sale, maintenance, and distribution of the Products in the Territory. Dollardex shall insure that any and all subsequent distribution agreements with its Dealers shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the M&D Agreement. |
| - | Dollardex will promote and advertise the Products in accordance with the Company’s reasonable policies, as announced from time to time. Dollardex will obtain the Company’s prior approval of any promotional or advertising material relating to the Products that are not expressly authorized by the Company’s policies before publishing or distributing such materials. |
| - | Commencing with the calendar quarter in which Dollardex commences distribution, and within forty five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter thereafter, Dollardex will provide the Company with a written report that includes: (i) Dollardex’s net sales and shipments of each Product for that calendar quarter, by dollar volume and number of units, both in the aggregate and for such categories as the Company may designate from time to time; (ii) Dollardex’s current inventory levels of the Products, both in the aggregate and by Product; and (iii) any other information reasonably requested by the Company pertaining to the M&D Agreement. |
| - | Dollardex will provide the Company with (a) annual audited financial statements to be audited by a recognized international auditing firm prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and procedures to be delivered to the Company no later than 90 days after the end of its fiscal year, and (b) quarterly unaudited financial statement to be reviewed by its auditors and prepared in accordance with the same standard under which auditors are required to review Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and to be delivered to the Company no later than 45 days of the end of each quarter period. |
