The complaint charges that Medis
and certain of its present officers and senior management violated Sections
10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by issuing materially
false and misleading statements about certain "Commercial Sales" it claimed
to have made to Microsoft.
The Complaint alleges that on April
13, 2007 the Company issued a press release announcing that it has begun
"commercial sales" of its 24/7 fuel cell Power Packs to Microsoft and that
the first shipment of Power Packs were made that day. This announcement
caused the Company's stock to dramatically rise on April 13, 2007. Company
CEO and Chairman Robert K. Lifton stated the moment was "historic." Later
that day, the Company issued additional information about the Microsoft
deal through its business development manager Andrew Udis, as reported
by the publication Inside Greentech. Mr. Udis indicated that the products
were "branded" by Microsoft, that the products would be sold around the
world by Microsoft, and that the ultimate unit commitment was expected
to be in the "millions." On April 17, 2007, after market close, it was
reported by certain media outlets that according to a Microsoft spokesperson,
Microsoft only purchased a "small amount" of Medis' products, the products
were not Microsoft branded, that Microsoft had no intention to sell them
to consumers but rather distribute them free at an upcoming event. Nor
did Microsoft have any plans for development of the product. The Complaint
alleges that these subsequent adverse disclosures concerning Medis' purported
deal with Microsoft caused the Company's stock to fall.
