NOTE 9 – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

On August 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with Thomet. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Company was required to pay Thomet $7,036,000 as full satisfaction for two (2) promissory notes held by Thomet by September 30, 2015. Included in this agreement (and deducted from the $7.036 million settlement) was the assignment of license rights to Thomet with an assigned value of $1.15 million. The licenses were previously acquired for $450,000 from Rampart Systems. Thomet shall pay Quest Solution a royalty fee of 3.5% of revenue related to the “gun-barrel,” “rebar inspection,” and “air frame” licenses for a five (5) year period, beginning on the effective date of the Assignment Agreement (as defined in the Settlement Agreement). The parties agreed to exclude the existing mining distribution license from the royalties to be paid to the Company by Thomet. On October 19, 2015, Quest Solution and Thomet entered into that First Amendment to the Omnibus Settlement Agreement, which modified the payment schedule under the Settlement Agreement.

 

The amount due to Thomet at December 31, 2016 is $5,092,245 which includes accrued interest. In July 2016, the holders of the notes signed subordination agreements with the Supplier of the Secured Promissory Note and Action, whereby the noteholders agree to subordinate their rights and payments until the Supplier with the Secured Promissory Note is reimbursed in full. As a result, the balance on this loan and related accrued interest at December 31, 2016 were all classified as long term.
