Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 17, 2005, International Lottery & Totalizator Systems, Inc. ("ILTS"), acting through its wholly owned subsidiary, Unisyn Solutions, Inc., entered into an agreement with Election Systems & Software, Inc. ("ES&S") for the joint development, certification, manufacturing and distribution of a Precinct Ballot Counter ("PBC") included in an election management system. The agreement has an initial term of thirty-six (36) months and shall automatically renew for an unlimited number of one (1) year terms, unless either party provides written notice of its intent not to renew at least one hundred twenty (120) days prior to expiration of the then current term.

In consideration of a profit sharing formula, ILTS grants ES&S an exclusive worldwide license to manufacture, sell and sublicense ILTS’ intellectual property relating to the PBC and PBC software to ES&S’ end customers. ES&S agrees to act as ILTS’ exclusive distributor, reseller, on-going service provider and manufacturer of the PBC and PBC software.

The contract also includes a provision for ILTS and ES&S to enter into a software support agreement for ILTS to supply necessary software maintenance and services to ES&S on terms to be negotiated.
