ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT. On April 5, 2006, Integral Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") announced that it had entered into a Patent License Agreement with Heatron, Inc. ("Heatron"), pursuant to which the Company granted to Heatron the rights to use the Company's proprietary ElectriPlast(TM) technology for specific applications in the heating and LED lighting markets. The effective date of the agreement was March 17, 2006. Heatron, found in 1977 and based in Leavenworth, Kansas, is an industry leader in heating element and thermal management designs and solutions. As outlined in the agreement, Heatron was granted a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-assignable, worldwide license; however, Heatron's rights are exclusive for two years from the effective date. The agreement will terminate upon the expiration of the last patent licensed under the agreement. Heatron may terminate the agreement upon 30 days notice at any time. Either party may terminate the agreement for cause, subject to a 30 day cure period. The Company may terminate the agreement in the event Heatron institutes any legal action claiming that the Company's patents are invalid or unenforceable, or alleging that the Company infringes on any Heatron patent. Heatron paid a nominal up-front fee of $1.00 to the Company. Any revenue to be generated by the Company under the agreement will be from raw materials fees. The parties agreed to use good faith efforts to reach agreement on commercially reasonable terms for the pricing and delivery of raw materials.
