ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On December 10, 2012, we, through our wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, HDS Energy and Ecosystems NB, Ltd., entered into a new technology license agreement with Hillwinds Energy Development Corp., which expands the geographic territory under our previous technology licenses. All previous license agreements between HDS and HEDC, including the asset acquisition agreement dated August 15, 2011, and the intellectual property agreement entered into September 2, 2011, have been terminated and superseded in their entirety by the new license agreement.
There has been no change to the technology licensed. However, the new license agreement expands our exclusive geographic territory to cover the entire Province of New Brunswick, Canada, as compared to our previous exclusive geographic territory, which was defined as Back Bay, New Brunswick, Canada, and any geography within 50 miles from the center of Back Bay, with the boundary on the west being the border with the State of Maine in the United States.
The financial terms of the transactions herein described were deemed immaterial, with no cash or securities paid or owed by the Company to HEDC. HEDC is controlled by the Company’s officers and directors, who also control the majority of the Company’s basic and fully diluted shares of common stock, and accordingly this transaction was classified as a related-party transaction and was not conducted at arms-length.
ITEM 1.02 TERMINATION OF MATERIAL CONTRACT.
On December 10, 2012, we terminated the intellectual property agreement acquired from Hillwinds Ocean Energy LLC, filed as Exhibit A of Exhibit 10.1 on Form 8-K, August 17, 2011 and Intellectual Property License Agreement with Hillwinds Energy Development Corp. filed as Exhibit 10.1 on Form 10-K, April 16, 2012.
ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
On December 10, 2012, we announced that we terminated all of our previous licensing agreements with Hillwinds Energy Development Corp. and entered into a new licensing agreement with Hillwinds Energy Development Corp.
