NOTE 9 – OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Stockholder Agreements
During 2009, the Company entered into a cancelable Term Sheet Agreement with a LHV Power Corporation, an entity owned by James Gevarges, one of our major shareholders. Mr. Gevarges is also the Chief Executive Officer and President of LHV Power. Pursuant to the Term Sheet Agreement, Flux Power was appointed as a distributor of LHV Power battery charging products allowing Flux Power to sell the products either separately or as part of an energy storage solution. Additionally, Flux Power was required to develop a microprocessor control board (“MCB”), and the associated software to enable communication between the parties’ respective products which entitles Flux Power to royalties for any such units sold by the related entity. Pursuant to the Term Sheet Agreement Flux Power may purchase the products at the then current price list for distributors. Further, under the Term Sheet Agreement, if LHV Power sells its products to a different distributor Flux Power is entitled to a distribution fee equal to 20% of the gross profits on such sale. This distribution fee and royalties are capped at a total of $200,000. The chargers are not currently under commercial production and therefore no Distribution and Royalty Fee has been received by Flux Power. On September 1, 2010, with our consent, LHV assigned the Term Sheet Agreement to Current Ways Inc. a different company that is owned by Mr. Gevarges. The parties are also subject to restrictions on the use and disclosure of confidential information of the other party until April 1, 2013.
Pursuant to our standard purchase order terms and conditions, during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, the Company purchased approximately $8,000 and $28,000, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012, the Company purchased approximately $41,000 and $52,000, respectively of charger products from Current Ways, Inc., which were not subject to the distribution fee or royalties referred to above under the Term Sheet Agreement.
On August 1, 2009, the Company entered into a Manufacturing Implementation Agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) with LHV Power pursuant to which Flux Power granted LHV Power a right of first refusal to manufacture our battery management systems and agreed to pay for any specialized tooling LHV Power may require to manufacture Flux Power’s battery management systems. Under the Manufacturing Agreement, Flux Power will retain ownership of all intellectual property developed as part of the Manufacturing Agreement, which expires on August 1, 2014. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, the Company paid approximately $0 and $108,000, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012, the Company paid approximately $18,000 and $260,000, respectively to LHV Power pursuant to the Manufacturing Agreement. |
