ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS. As previously
reported on Form 8-K filed by LoJack Corporation (the “Company”) on
March 23, 2011, the Company received a demand for arbitration with the
American Arbitration Association on March 21, 2011. The demand was filed
by Global Tracking Tech., Ltd. and Tracker do Brasil LTDA, which are licensed
to use the LoJack technology in Brazil. The claim alleges that the Company
failed to maintain a patent for the stolen vehicle recovery system in Brazil
and the claims include breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of
good faith and fair dealing, and violation of Mass. Gen Laws c. 93A. The
claimant seeks $111,500,000 in actual damages, treble damages, and
attorneys’ fees and costs. On May 11, 2011, the American Arbitration
Association administratively closed this matter at this time. Also on
March 21, 2011, the Company received a separate demand for arbitration
with the American Arbitration Association, filed by the same parties, alleging
breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair
dealing and violation of Mass. Gen. Laws c. 93A relating to product pricing and
the fulfillment of purchase orders to the licensee. The claimant seeks, amongst
other things, $289,500,000 in actual damages, treble damages, attorneys’
fees, and declaratory and injunctive relief. On July 6, 2011, claimants
voluntarily withdrew their application for arbitration and Tracker do Brasil
LTDA commenced the below discussed lawsuit against LoJack Equipment Ireland,
Ltd. (“LoJack Ireland”) requesting that a Massachusetts Court order
LoJack Ireland to submit to arbitration before the American Arbitration
Association’s International Centre for Dispute Resolution, without
limitation or precondition. On July 7,
2011, LoJack Ireland was served by Tracker do Brasil LTDA with the
aforementioned lawsuit which was filed in Norfolk Superior Court in
Massachusetts. The lawsuit alleges interference with contractual relations,
fraud/intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, breach of
contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and
violation of Mass. Gen Laws c. 93A relating to product pricing and the
fulfillment of purchase orders for the licensee. The claimant seeks, amongst
other things, $289,500,000 in actual damages, treble damages, attorneys’
fees, and declaratory and injunctive relief. The claimant also seeks a court
order compelling arbitration and staying the case in Norfolk Superior Court
during the pendency of the arbitration. The Company
considers the allegations by the licensee to be without merit and intends to
fully defend itself in these matters.  2
