Item 8.01 Other Events.

On April 9, 2017, IDT Corporation (the “Registrant”) entered a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with Straight Path Communications Inc. (“SPCI”) providing for the settlement and mutual release of potential liabilities and claims that may exist or arise under the Separation Agreement between the Registrant and SPCI related to the 2013 spin-off of SPCI by the Registrant and otherwise related to the prior relationship among the parties (the “Mutual Release”). Pursuant to the Term Sheet, in exchange for the Mutual Release, the Registrant will pay SPCI an aggregate of $16 million, and SPCI will transfer to IDT its majority ownership interest in Straight Path IP Group, Inc. (“SPIP”), a subsidiary of SPCI that holds intellectual property primarily related to communications over computer networks, subject to the right to receive 22 percent of the net proceeds, if any, received by SPIP from licenses, settlements, awards or judgments involving any of the patent rights and certain transfers of the patents or related rights, that will be retained by SPCI’s stockholders (such equity interest, subject to the retained interest right, the “IP Interest”). The Term Sheet allocates (i) $10 million of the payment and the retained interest right to the settlement of claims and the Mutual Release and (ii) $6 million to the transfer of the IP Interest.

On April 10, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Registrant and its Corporate Governance Committee approved the sale by the Registrant of 728,332 shares of Class B common stock to Howard Jonas, the Registrant’s Chairman, for aggregate consideration of $10 million. The price per share of $13.73 was based on the closing price of the Class B common stock on the date the sale was approved.

On April 10, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Registrant and its Corporate Governance Committee also approved the transfer by the Registrant of the IP Interest to an entity to be organized by Howard Jonas in exchange for $6 million (which is the price to be paid by the Registrant to SPCI for the IP Interest). The transfer is permitted under the Term Sheet and the entity will assume the Registrant’s obligations to SPCI and its stockholders with respect to the IP Interest.
