ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

On July 26, 2013, MusclePharm Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("MusclePharm" or the “Company”), entered into an Endorsement Licensing and Co-Branding Agreement (the "Agreement") by and among Marine MP, LLC, and Fitness Publications, Inc. (Marine MP, LLC and Fitness Publications, Inc. together, the “AS Parties”). Under the terms of the Agreement, Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger will endorse the Corporation’s products and a special Arnold Schwarzenegger product line of between 4 and 8 products will be marketed under Mr. Schwarzenegger’s name and likeness.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Schwarzenegger granted the Company a license to use, subject to Mr. Schwarzenegger’s approval, worldwide, Mr. Schwarzenegger’s name and Appearance Rights (as defined in the Agreement), oral and written endorsements, and approved videos, images, appearance, likeness, voice recording, signature and professional background to advertise the Company’s products. Additionally, Mr. Schwarzenegger has agreed to make certain appearance on behalf of the Company throughout the term of the Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, as compensation and in consideration of the license granted by Mr. Schwarzenegger and the services he shall provide, Marine MP, LLC shall receive (i) royalty payments based upon a percentage of net sales of licensed products throughout the term of the Agreement, subject to certain minimum amounts, and (ii) 780,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (the “Stock Compensation”). The Company has agreed to file a “resale” registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering all shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Agreement, using its reasonable best efforts to file such registration statement concurrently with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, but in no event shall such registration statement be filed later than August 21, 2013. Mr. Schwarzenegger has agreed that he will not sell more than 50% of the Stock Compensation for a period of six (6) months. The Company has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement from the effective date until all securities have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. The Company has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.

 

The Agreement shall have an initial term of three (3) years commencing on July 26, 2013, however, the Agreement shall automatically extend for two additional three-year terms if certain net sales milestones are met, as specified in the Agreement.

 

The Agreement may be terminated by either party upon a material breach or default by the other party, given that such terminating party shall give notice and provide the non-terminating party a 30 day period in which it may cure the potential event of default. Moreover, should Mr. Schwarzenegger become incapable of performing a material amount of the personal or consulting services provided for in the Agreement due to death, disability, injury or other incapacity, the Company may terminate the Agreement upon 15 days written notice. The AS Parties may terminate the Agreement under certain other circumstances set forth in the Agreement.

 

The Agreement also contains standard independent contractor, indemnification, exclusivity and non-competition clauses.

 

 
 

 

The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of the Agreement and does not purport to be complete.
