Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 22, 2010, Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. ("NIMS") provided notice to Sing Lin Technology Co. Ltd. ("Sing Lin") that effective 90 days thereafter, NIMS was terminating the Product Development and Supply Agreement (the "Agreement") between NIMS and Sing Lin related to the development and supply of NIMS’ Exer-Rest®, and other related products (the "Products"). The Agreement contained certain minimum purchase obligations of approximately $2.6 million of Products in the calendar year following the September 2008 acceptance of the final product. Additionally, the Agreement provided for minimum purchase obligations in the second and third calendar years following such acceptance of the final product of $4.1 million and $8.8 million of Products, respectively. NIMS terminated the Agreement to minimize potential exposure, if any. Through the date of the termination notice, NIMS had paid Sing Lin $1.7 million in connection with orders placed through that date. As of the date of the termi nation notice, NIMS had not placed orders sufficient to satisfy its commitment to purchase a minimum number of units in the first and second calendar years after acceptance of the final product. Prior to receipt by Sing Lin of the notice of termination, Sing Lin requested that NIMS comply with the minimum purchase requirements under the Agreement. NIMS is exploring its options under the Agreement and continues to discuss with Sing Lin various scenarios to resolve the matter. There can be no assurance that the Agreement will be modified or replaced on terms acceptable to NIMS or at all, or that Sing Lin will not attempt to enforce its rights under the Agreement, or pursue all other available remedies.
Pursuant to the termination provisions of the Agreement, NIMS has also requested that Sing Lin (i) cease manufacturing and distribution of the Products under the Agreement, (ii) transfer to NIMS all intellectual property rights relating to the product tooling developed with funding provided by NIMS, (iii) sell to NIMS the hardware and software of Sing Lin’s brushless servo motor technology along with the wireless digital controller; and (iv) return to NIMS the tooling, equipment, parts, materials or prototypes that remain the property of NIMS.
