Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On December 11, 2012, HPEV, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Debt Settlement Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Phoenix Productions and Entertainment Group (“PPEG”), Action Media Group, LLC (“AMG”)(PPEG and AMG together, the “Debt Holders”), and Spirit Bear Limited. Prior to execution of the Agreement, the Debt Holders were owed an aggregate of $1,161,894 in principal and accrued interest (the “Debt”) by the Company. The Debt Holders also owned an aggregate of 4,676,000 shares (the “Total Shares”) of the Company’s common stock.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Debt Holders agreed (i) to forgive the Debt and (ii) to transfer the Total Shares to the Company’s transfer agent to be held in escrow and to be cancelled as provided for in the Agreement. Accordingly, the Debt holders have returned the notes evidencing the Debt, which notes were received by the Company on December 17, 2012; and have delivered the Total Shares to the escrow agent by book-entry transfer on December 20, 2012. As provided for in the Agreement, Debt Holders have released the Company of (i) any future liability or claim related to the Debt, (ii) any future liability or claim related to shares of any class of equity in the Company, and (iii) any obligation or liability of the Company.

 

The Total Shares will be held in escrow until the Company files a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the December 14, 2012, purchase by Spirit Bear Limited of unregistered securities of the Company (the “Registration Statement”). Upon the filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC, 3,676,000 shares of the Total Shares will be cancelled and 1,000,000 shares of the Total Shares (the “Consideration Shares”) will continue to be held in escrow. The Company, or a nominee of the Company, will then purchase the Consideration Shares at the price of Forty Cents ($.40) per share. The Consideration Shares will be purchased at the rate of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) per month until the purchase of all of the Consideration Shares shall have been completed. The first purchase will commence within ninety (90) days after HPEV shall have achieved One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in gross revenues for products or services from business operations.

 

The Agreement contains standards indemnification and confidentiality clauses.
