Form 8-K for DIGITAL ANGEL CORP


16-Jul-2008

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Termination of a Material Definiti


Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 10, 2008, Digital Angel Corporation (the "Company") entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Sterling Hallmark, Inc., a California corporation ("Sterling"), whereby the Company sold all the issued and outstanding stock of Computer Equity Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("CEC"), to Sterling (the "Sale"). As a result of the Sale, Sterling indirectly acquired Government Telecommunications, Inc., a Virginia corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CEC ("GTI").

Under the terms of the agreement, Sterling paid the Company $600,000 - $400,000 in cash and a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $200,000. The secured promissory note is due in full on August 1, 2008. Intercompany loans between CEC, GTI and the Company were forgiven by the parties. Also, the shares of CEC and GTI that were pledged by the Company to Kallina Corporation pursuant to the Stock Pledge Agreement dated August 31, 2007 and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. pursuant to the Stock Pledge Agreement dated August 24, 2006 to secure the Company's obligations were released by such lenders and are now pledged to the Company in connection with the secured promissory note.

In connection with the Sale, GTI, the Company and Verizon Federal Inc. entered into an amendment ("Amendment") to the Confidential Settlement Agreement and Release entered into by the same parties on December 19, 2007 ("Settlement Agreement"). The Amendment, among other things, released the Company from its guaranty of GTI's obligations under the Settlement Agreement ("Guaranty") in exchange for $1.5 million paid by Sterling to Verizon Federal Inc. as partial consideration for the Sale. Therefore, as a result of the Sale and the Amendment, the Company is no longer liable for GTI's obligations under the Settlement Agreement, as amended.

In addition, the Company and Sterling entered into a Noncompetition and Confidentiality Agreement, whereby the Company is prohibited, among other things, from engaging in certain competing business activities and soliciting Sterling's customers and employees for a period of two years.

As a result of the Sale, the Company expects to record a gain of approximately $3 million. The gain will be included in the Company's results from discontinued operations.

The foregoing descriptions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Amendment to Confidential Settlement Agreement and Release and the Noncompetition and Confidentiality Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Amendment to Confidential Settlement Agreement and Release and the Noncompetition and Confidentiality Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
