Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On January 21, 2009, The Armored Group (“TAG”) filed a complaint against affiliates of Supreme Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) alleging breach of oral contract, unjust enrichment, and other claims, including that the Company had an obligation to pay TAG a 10% commission on all sales of armored vehicles to the United States Department of State under a contract with the United States Department of State providing for up to $98,000,000 in sales.  On May 25, 2011, the Company and TAG signed a Civil Settlement Agreement under the terms of which this lawsuit will be dismissed and the Company will: (i) pay to TAG the cash sum of $1,100,000 (payable $400,000 on  or about May 25, 2011, and the balance of $700,000 payable over the next twelve months in the principal amount of $58,333 per month plus accrued interest at 5.75% simple interest); and (ii) issue and deliver to TAG on or about May 25, 2011, 350,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and an additional 350,000 shares on January 15, 2012.  Under the terms of the Civil Settlement Agreement, TAG is restricted from selling more than 50,000 shares during any thirty-day period, and the Company is given the first right to purchase any shares that TAG wishes to sell.
