Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 24, 2021, Astrotech Corporation through its wholly owned subsidiary, Astrotech Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) signed a Letter of Agreement (the “Agreement”) effective as of March 24, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) by and among the Company and Sanmina Corporation (“Sanmina”).

 

Under the Agreement, Sanmina will procure and inspect components, parts, and raw materials (collectively “Components”) and manufacture, assemble, test, inspect, configure, store, and ship the products (“Products”) set forth in the Company’s purchase orders (“Orders”) accepted by Sanmina at prices, including delivery costs, as agreed upon between the parties.

 

Upon issuance of an Order or other written authorization from the Company, Sanmina will procure the Components to manufacture the Products in accordance with Sanmina’s standard material ordering policies (“Policies”) and the Company agrees to be financially responsible for all Components ordered in accordance with the Policies.

 

The Agreement terminates six (6) months from the Effective Date unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, during which period Sanmina and the Company have agreed to negotiate a more robust Manufacturing Services Agreement. The Agreement may be terminated for cause by either party if the other party materially breaches and has not cured the breach within 30 days after being notified in writing of the material breach.

 

The foregoing description of the terms of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement. The Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
