Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 29, 2010 (the “Effective Date), Lantronix, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”) with TL Investment GmbH (together with any affiliate thereof, “TLI”).
TLI previously submitted a proposal to the Company to nominate three members for election to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2010 Meeting”) and previously filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in support of such proposal. The Company previously filed a Definitive Proxy Statement (the “Schedule 14A”), which included the Company’s recommended slate of directors among other matters.
Under the Agreement, TLI and the Company have agreed that, in connection with the 2010 Meeting, the Company will (i) include Bernhard Bruscha and Hoshi Printer or their respective Replacements (as defined in the Agreement) (each, a “TLI Nominee”) in its slate of nominees for election to the Board at the 2010 Meeting and (ii) amend its Schedule 14A to reflect the inclusion of the TLI Nominees on the Company’s slate of recommended nominees for election to the Board at the 2010 Meeting. TL Investments also agreed to certain standstill restrictions through the end of the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
This summary of the Agreement is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.
