Section 8 – Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events

On September 10, 2004, the Company entered into an agreement settling an action styled, Royal Insurance Company of America v. Cadapult Graphic Systems, Inc. and Media Sciences, Inc., No. 04-CV-231, before the United States District Court for the District of New York. The insurance carrier denied coverage under an insurance policy, and filed suit for a declaratory judgement seeking to rescind the policy or in the alternative to have the court declare that the insurance company has no obligation to indemnify the Company for claims for the unreimbursed portion of warranty expenses associated with the Company’s recall of ink products in January 2002. Pursuant to the agreement, in exchange for general releases, the Company received a payment of $500,000 on September 17, 2004. There is no admission on the part of the insurance company that the Company was covered by the insurance policy pursuant to which the Company had filed its claim.
