Cyalume Technologies, Inc. (“CTI”), the wholly owned subsidiary of Cyalume Technologies Holdings, Inc., is currently named a defendant in Civil Action No. 06-706 in Superior Court of the State of Massachusetts. Filing suit against CTI is Omniglow, LLC (the former novelty business of CTI which was sold on January 23, 2006). On March 28, 2011, CTI received additional Findings, Rulings and Order in Civil Action No. 06-706 in which the Court awarded $1.7 million damages for certain lost profits. Prejudgment interest at the rate of twelve (12%) percent per annum since the filing of the complaint in 2006 will accrue on $575,000 of that amount. The Court also awarded attorney’s fees and costs in the amount of $235,000. A final judgment will enter at the direction of the Court. CTI is considering its alternatives relating to the Findings and is in the process of evaluating all avenues of appeal. CTI has thirty (30) days from the entry of final judgment to file any appeal. According to the Stock Purchase Agreement with CTI’s former owners (from whom we purchased CTI in 2008), the former owners have indemnified CTI for all costs and liabilities associated with Civil Action No. 06-706.
