Item 8.01

Other Events

 

On November 15, 2019, a complaint naming CVD Equipment Corporation (the “Company”) as defendant (the “Complaint”) was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York by plaintiff O2Cure Ltd (“O2Cure”).

 

The complaint relates to O2Cure’s U.S. Patent No. 9,138,522 and 9,827,534 titled “Gas Exchanger and Artificial Lung,” alleges patent infringement by the Company under the patent laws of the United States, 35 U.S.C. § 271 et seq., and seeks injunctive relief against the Company together with an unspecified amount of damages.

 

Although the ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined with certainty, the Company believes that the allegations stated in the Complaint are entirely without merit. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously in the suit.
