Items 1.01 and 8.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement and Other Events.

   

On July 15, 2014, Save The World Air, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Equipment Lease/Option to Purchase Agreement (“Agreement” or “Lease”) with Kinder Morgan Crude & Condensate, LLC (“Kinder Morgan”), dated effective as of July 15, 2014. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Kinder Morgan has agreed to lease, install, maintain, operate and test the effectiveness of the Company’s AOT technology and equipment (the “Equipment”) on one of Kinder Morgan’s operating pipelines.

The Agreement provides for, among other things, the Company to deliver the Equipment to Kinder Morgan, at the Company’s expense, to a location designated by Kinder Morgan, by a date no later than December 31, 2014, and for the Equipment to be installed and placed in operation by Kinder Morgan, at Kinder Morgan’s expense, on the date that the Equipment’s direct current power supply is successfully energized by the Company, following an installation pre-startup safety review by Kinder Morgan, which shall be completed by Kinder Morgan no later than thirty (30) days following the Company’s delivery and Kinder Morgan’s acceptance of the Equipment (the “Commencement Date”).

The initial term (the “Initial Term”) of the Agreement is four (4) months, commencing on the Commencement Date. On sixty (60) days’ written notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, Kinder Morgan has an option to extend the Lease for a minimum of twelve (12) months and a maximum of eighty-four (84) months (the “Extended Term”). The Agreement further provides that Kinder Morgan, during the Initial Term and Extended Term, if any, shall have an option to purchase the Equipment for a fixed price during the Initial Term of $1,200,000. If Kinder Morgan extends the lease for twelve (12) months, Kinder Morgan may, at its option, at the expiration of the twelve (12) month extended term, purchase the Equipment for $1,050,000. If Kinder Morgan extends the Lease for eighty-four (84) months, the purchase price for the Equipment at the expiration of the eighty-four (84) month extended term shall be $600,000. If the Lease is extended for any period of time greater than twelve (12) months up to a maximum of eighty-four (84) months, the purchase price shall be equal to $1,050,000, less the sum of $6,250 for each month during any such extended term through the date of purchase.

Lease payments shall commence on the Commencement Date and be made during both the Initial and Extended Terms of the Lease at the rate of $20,000 per month; provided however, that in the event the Equipment is removed from service at its initial location during the Initial Term, the monthly lease payments shall be reduced to $5,000 until the Equipment is placed back in service at its new location, at which time the Lease payments shall resume at $20,000 per month. The Agreement further provides that title and ownership of the Equipment shall remain at all times with the Company, unless purchased by Kinder Morgan. During the Initial Term, either the Company or Kinder Morgan may terminate the Agreement for any reason on forty-five (45) days’ written notice.

The above description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference.

Additionally, and in connection with the Lease, as described above, the Company and Kinder Morgan entered into a Mutual Confidentiality Agreement, dated July 15, 2014 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Among other things, the Confidentiality Agreement allows the Company and Kinder Morgan to share and discuss any data, in summary form only, acquired by the Company or Kinder Morgan, in furtherance or as a result of operations under the Lease, with the customers, potential customers, vendors, potential vendors, contractual relationships or potential contractual relationships of the Company or Kinder Morgan. Other than the foregoing exception and additional usual and customary exceptions, all confidential information, as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement, exchanged by the Company and Kinder Morgan, shall remain confidential and used between the Company and Kinder Morgan only in furtherance of their business relationship, discussions related thereto or transactions between them.

The above description of the Confidentiality Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Confidentiality Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.2, and incorporated herein by reference.
