Form 8-K for RADIOSHACK CORP


1-Feb-2013

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Financial Statements and Exhibits


Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 6, 2012, RadioShack Corporation ("RadioShack") reported that a subsidiary of RadioShack Corporation ("RadioShack") entered into a joint venture agreement with a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of SMS Marketing Service (Asia) Co., Ltd. ("Cybermart"), an affiliate of Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd., to form a joint venture entity (the "Joint Venture") through which RadioShack and Cybermart will operate small-format retail stores in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. These retail stores will offer consumer electronic products, accessories and related services and will be owned, leased or franchised by the Joint Venture or its subsidiaries.

On January 31, 2013, RadioShack entered into an Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement (the "Joint Venture Agreement") with Cybermart and completed the formation of the Joint Venture.

The Joint Venture provides that RadioShack and Cybermart will hold 49% and 51%, respectively, of the total issued share capital of the Joint Venture. In conjunction with the formation and operation of the Joint Venture, RadioShack and Cybermart have agreed to initially contribute US$2.94 million and US$3.06 million, respectively, in cash, to the Joint Venture, and may contribute up to an additional US$34 million (in proportion to their then current respective shareholding percentages in the Joint Venture) during the next three years, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Joint Venture Agreement. The board of directors of the Joint Venture initially will be comprised of five directors, with two directors nominated by RadioShack and three directors nominated by Cybermart.

Subject to certain exceptions, neither RadioShack nor Cybermart may transfer its shares in the Joint Venture. In the event that the Joint Venture does not achieve certain financial thresholds or a deadlock between RadioShack and Cybermart occurs, RadioShack may offer its shares in the Joint Venture to Cybermart at fair market value. If Cybermart elects not to purchase RadioShack's shares in the Joint Venture or if RadioShack does not offer its shares in the Joint Venture to Cybermart at fair market value, Cybermart may offer its shares in the Joint Venture to RadioShack at fair market value. If RadioShack elects not to purchase Cybermart's shares in the Joint Venture or if Cybermart does not offer its shares in the Joint Venture to RadioShack at fair market value, the Joint Venture may be liquidated.

The parties have agreed in the Joint Venture Agreement to provide the Joint Venture with a right of first refusal with respect to certain retail business opportunities.

In addition, RadioShack entered into a License Agreement granting the Joint Venture the exclusive right to operate its business under the "RadioShack" brand and trademarks in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. RadioShack also entered into a Master Sourcing Agreement with the Joint Venture that, among other things, designates RadioShack as the preferred supplier of certain accessory products, including RadioShack private brands, to the Joint Venture subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Master Sourcing Agreement. RadioShack has also entered into a License Agreement with the Joint Venture providing that the Joint Venture may manufacture or cause to be manufactured televisions branded with the "RadioShack" trademark and offered for sale in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. RadioShack and Cybermart currently are in discussions to allow the Joint Venture to manufacture or cause to be manufactured additional consumer electronic products.

The foregoing description of the Joint Venture Agreement is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.
