ITEM 1.01
ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On September 24, 2015, the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York (“New York
Court”) appointed Robert W. Seiden as the receiver (the “Receiver”) over Abakan Inc. (“Abakan”), in
response to a motion filed with the New York Court on September 17, 2015, for contempt, in a suit brought
by George Town Associates S.A. (“George Town”) against Abakan and its subsidiary MesoCoat, Inc.
(“MesoCoat”) on May 4, 2015, in order to collect amounts due to George Town pursuant to the terms of a
secured convertible note, and on August 19, 2015, Mr. Seiden was appointed receiver for MesoCoat, in
response to a motion filed with the Court on July 28, 2015, for contempt in the same action, as previously
reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Abakan with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on September 25, 2015.
On December 16, 2015, the New York Court issued an order approving a proposal (the “Court Approved
Transaction”) providing for the satisfaction of the debt owed by MesoCoat to its largest creditors, as
previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Abakan with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on December 18, 2015.
On January 4, 2016, Abakan and MesoCoat entered into a Satisfaction and Assignment Agreement (the
“Satisfaction Agreement”) with George Town, Sonoro Invest S.A. (“Sonoro”), Joseph T. Eberhard
(“Eberhard”), and David van der Gulik, Warren Lydon, Philip Graves, Paul Ammon, Ammon &Associates
and Vladimir Chernyakov (together the “Abakan Petitioning Creditors” and collectively with George Town,
Sonoro and Eberhard, the “Creditors”), reflecting the terms of the Court Approved Transaction. Pursuant to
the Satisfaction Agreement, Abakan transferred 77.5% of the outstanding stock and ownership in MesoCoat
to the Creditors in satisfaction of approximately $6.24 million of claims by the Creditor’s against Abakan
and MesoCoat. Under the terms of the Satisfaction Agreement, George Town received 38.75% of
MesoCoat’s outstanding stock, Sonoro received 28.17% of MesoCoat’s outstanding stock, Eberhard
received 7.44% of MesoCoat’s outstanding stock and the Abakan Petitioning Creditors received an
aggregate of 3.14% of MesoCoat’s outstanding stock. Abakan retained 22.5% of MesoCoat’s outstanding
stock. In addition, MesoCoat agreed to pay in full the claims of certain creditors of MesoCoat in the
aggregate amount of approximately $41,900 within 14 days of execution of the Satisfaction Agreement.
Further, pursuant to the Satisfaction Agreement, the Receiver will continue to serve as receiver over
MesoCoat and Abakan for 91 days following the date of the Settlement Agreement.
