Section 8 – Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 26, 2013, Integrated Environmental Technologies, Ltd. (“Integrated”), and its wholly owned subsidiary I.E.T., Inc. (collectively referred to herein as the “Company”), Crystal Enterprises, Inc. (“Crystal”), and Pendred, Inc. (“Pendred”), entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) related to the civil complaint filed on January 12, 2012 by Crystal against the Company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington. In its complaint, Crystal alleged interference with prospective advantage or business expectancy, tortious interference with contract, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of non-disclosure agreement and breach of contact. Crystal’s allegations centered on discussions among the Company, Crystal, Pendred (an affiliate of Crystal) and Biolize Products, LLC, regarding the establishment of a business relationship involving the distribution of the Company’s anolyte and catholyte solutions. Crystal sought monetary damages as well as attorney fees. The Company refuted all claims made by Crystal, including the monetary damages claimed by Crystal.
In order to resolve the dispute and to avoid further litigation costs associated with defending the litigation, the Company agreed to this settlement with Crystal. Pursuant to the settlement, neither party admitted to any wrongdoing, the parties agreed to unconditional mutual releases regarding, among other things, all of the claims made by Crystal in the civil complaint and Integrated issued 450,000 shares of its common stock, par value $.001, to Crystal. The fair market value of the shares issued to Crystal, based on the quoted market price of Integrated’s common stock on the date of issuance ($0.059 per share), was $26,550.
