On May 13, 2008, Liquidity Services, Inc. (the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Surplus Acquisition Venture, LLC (“SAV”), and the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Service (the “DRMS”) of the U.S. Department of Defense entered into a Supplemental Agreement (the “Amendment”) relating to Commercial Venture II (CV-II) (Sales Contract Number 99-0001-0002), entered into as of June 13, 2001, between SAV and the DRMS (the “Surplus Contract”), which was previously filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2005. The Surplus Contract was previously amended pursuant to an amendment filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 13, 2006.  A copy of the associated press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Amendment, which is effective as of May 13, 2008, (1) extends the performance period for the Surplus Contract by 180 days to December 19, 2008 (the “Extension Period”), (2) enables the Government to include or exclude items from a delivery order under the Surplus Contract based on national security concerns at its sole discretion during the Extension Period, (3) allows either party to terminate the Surplus Contract (without cost to the Government) upon 60 days written notice to the other party and (4) increases the profit-sharing distribution payable to the Company under the Surplus Contract to 39.5% for the Extension Period.
