On February 28, 2008, 3D Systems Corporation (the “Company”) purchased for $5,300,000 certain
equipment from Tangible Express, LLC (“Tangible Express”) that was made available following
Tangible Express’ announcements in late January and early February 2008 that it was closing its
doors, no longer providing prototyping services and selling certain equipment. In connection with
that transaction, Tangible Express paid the Company approximately $638,000 covering the net amount
of accounts receivable that it owed the Company.
In connection with these arrangements, the Company and Tangible Express entered into a
Settlement and Release Agreement in which both parties agreed to a general release of all claims
against the other, including such claims as made by Tangible Express against the Company in a civil
action it filed on January 22, 2008 in the United States District Court, District of Utah, Central
Division in which Tangible Express sought, among other things, a refund of the purchase costs for
equipment and services and related damages.
