Item 1.01                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On November 1, 2011, in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement, dated September 6, 2011 (the “Settlement Agreement”), between Infinite Group, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”), the Company received from the PBGC the executed Agreement for Appointment of Trustee and Termination of the Osley & Whitney, Inc. Retirement Plan (the "O&W Plan") (the “Trusteeship Agreement”).  The Trusteeship Agreement: (i) terminated the O&W Plan; (ii) appointed the PBGC as the statutory trustee of the O&W Plan; and (iii) established November 30, 2001 as the termination date for the O&W Plan.

On October 17, 2011, in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, the Company: (i) purchased 500,000 shares of its common stock from the O&W Plan for $130,000; and (ii) issued a promissory note in favor of the PBGC for $300,000 bearing interest at 6% per annum amortizing in quarterly payments over a seven year period (the “Note”).  The purchase price for the 500,000 shares was funded by the Company using the proceeds from the placement of a convertible note in the principal amount of $100,000 to a non-affiliated accredited investor on October 4, 2011.  The shares purchased will be retired and restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares.  All obligations of the Company under the Note are secured by a security interest in all assets of the Company, subordinate to certain pre-existing obligations, including the security interest of the lender under the Company’s credit facility.

Since the PBGC terminated the O&W Plan as of November 30, 2001, the Company has no further obligations to the O&W Plan and the PBGC other than those stated in the Settlement Agreement.  The Company will record the effects of the termination of the O&W Plan in its financial statements during the fourth quarter of 2011.
 
The foregoing summary of the Settlement Agreement, Trusteeship Agreement and the Note are qualified in their entirety by reference to the same which are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 hereto. A copy of the press release that the Company expects to release with respect to the foregoing is attached as Exhibit 99.1, hereto.

Infinite Group, Inc. Relieved of Obligation to Act as Sponsor of the Osley & Whitney, Inc. Retirement Plan and the Related Financial Responsibilities


Pittsford, NY, November 8, 2011 - Infinite Group, Inc. (OTCBB: IMCI) today announced that on November 1, 2011, it completed an agreement with the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”) pursuant to which the Osley & Whitney, Inc. Retirement Plan (the "O&W Plan") was terminated effective as of November 30, 2001 and the PBGC was appointed the statutory trustee of the O&W Plan.  Since the PBGC terminated the O&W Plan as of November 30, 2001, the Company has no further obligations to the O&W Plan and the PBGC other than those stated in the Settlement Agreement with the PBGC.

Prior to December 30, 2002, the Company owned 100% of the common stock of Osley & Whitney, Inc. (O&W).  On December 30, 2002, the Company sold 100% of the O&W common stock to a third party, but continued to act as the sponsor of the O&W Plan.  Although the Company continued to act as the sponsor of the O&W Plan after the sale, during 2007 management determined that it had no legal obligation to do so.

Mr. James Villa, President, stated that "we appreciate the cooperation and assistance of the PBGC in working with us to resolve the long standing issues associated with the O&W Plan and we are very pleased with the outcome.  We will now be able to focus our efforts exclusively on growing our Company without the distractions, negative financial impact and administrative burdens associated with the O&W Plan.  We believe that this resolution with the PBGC is in the best interests of the Company, its stockholders and the O&W Plan participants.  We expect that it will help the Company avoid the ongoing expense associated with legal and other expenses to assert the Company's position advocating that it had no legal obligation to act as the sponsor of the O&W Plan and will provide the O&W Plan participants with a long-term financial and administrative resolution backed by the PBGC."
