Settlement Agreement and Release
On December 15, 2003, ISCO International, Inc. (the “Company”), and Morgan and Finnegan L.L.P. (“M&F”), the Company’s former patent counsel, entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release. As a result of the parties’ respective claims arising from ISCO’s engagement of M&F, the parties have determined to settle such claims in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, pursuant to which the Company has issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to M&F. The Company had reserved a two million dollar ($2,000,000) accrued liability related to the claims. This accrued liability is resolved and no longer necessary. Both the expense that created the accounting reserve and the reversal of that expense upon termination of the reserve occurred during the fiscal year 2003.
