Business Wire
Flight Safety Technologies, Inc (AMEX: FLT) announced that it
reached a settlement in the litigation pending in the U.S. District
Court for the District of Massachusetts entitled Analogic
Corporation v. Flight Safety Technologies Inc, et al, No. 06- 11288
(JLT). Under the terms of the settlement, Analogic (NASDAQ: ALOG)
assigned its license rights in the SICM MANPADS Countermeasure
technology against certain shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles to
FLT, but retained certain related manufacturing rights or,
alternatively, certain royalty rights which range from 10% to 5% of
gross revenue from the sale of related products depending on the
gross margin realized by FLT. FLT will issue 100,000 shares of
common stock and pay $100,000 in cash to Sanders Design
International (SDI) and SDI's legal fees associated with the
lawsuit. Upon completion of a successful live fire test, FLT will
issue SDI another 250,000 shares of common stock and hire three SDI
employees for one year terms in exchange for ownership of all
intellectual property associated with the SICM and TIICM� MANPADS
countermeasure technologies. SDI also would receive a royalty of 1%
of gross revenue from sales of products based on these
technologies. There can be no assurance that any party to the
settlement eventually will realize revenue from any such products.
FLT CEO William Cotton says "We are pleased that we were able to
come to such a constructive resolution with all parties. I believe
this agreement positions us to move forward with the development of
this important technology. The resolution of this dispute allows us
to resume our leadership role in the development process, while
maintaining a strong relationship with SDI and Analogic. We have
been encouraged by test results of the technology and look forward
to completing a live fire test of the system with the Air Force
early this year." About Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. Flight
