Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 5, 2006, we entered into an Amended Settlement and License Agreement with Crossroads Systems, Inc. that supersedes the Settlement and License Agreement we entered into with Crossroads on June 28, 2006. The amended agreement clarifies that payments made by Dot Hill under the amended agreement shall not be reduced due to taxes, duties, fees or any other tax-related obligations owed by Dot Hill or any other entity anywhere in the world. The amended agreement also provides that Dot Hill will pay an additional $1.43 million to Crossroads to account for $1.43 million that was deducted, due to certain tax withholding requirements, from the lump sum payment of $10.50 million to be paid to Crossroads under the original agreement. The additional $1.43 million payment to Crossroads was included in the $10.5 million legal settlement obligation recognized by Dot Hill as of June 30, 2006. Crossroads also agreed to dismiss, with prejudice, the breach of contract lawsuit it filed against Dot Hill on or about July 24, 2006 relating to the original agreement. The remaining terms of the original agreement are unchanged.
