Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Flextronics Inventory Purchase Agreement
On May 8, 2008, our subsidiary, Gateway Pro Partners, LLC, entered into a Flextronics Inventory Purchase Agreement (the “IPA”) with Flextronics Computing Mauritius Limited (“Flextronics”). Under the IPA, Flextronics will purchase certain inventory currently located at our Nashville facility which we expect to then repurchase from Flextronics over the 90 day period following the agreement date for production at our Nashville facility. Any remaining inventory after the 90 day period must be repurchased by us. It is currently anticipated that the amount of inventory subject to the IPA will be approximately $8.7 million; however, the actual amount may vary and is subject to the discretion of Flextronics. Flextronics will charge a monthly interest cost of 1.5% per month on the outstanding inventory not repurchased by MPC-Pro in addition to a monthly management fee.
The foregoing description of the Flextronics Inventory Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Flextronics Inventory Purchase Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
