Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 3, 2012, Performance Technologies, Inc. ("PT") executed a lease agreement (the "new lease") with HUB Properties Trust ("Landlord") for its new corporate headquarters facility, a property more appropriately sized for PT's current and projected space needs.  The new facility, which has approximately 32,000 square feet of office and warehouse space, is located at 140 Canal View Boulevard, Rochester, New York.  This facility will replace PT's existing corporate headquarters facility located at 205 Indigo Creek Drive, Rochester, New York, and will house executive offices, along with sales, marketing, engineering and manufacturing operations.  PT expects to occupy the new premises during the second quarter 2012.
The new lease has a sixty-six month term for approximately two-thirds of the space and a thirty-eight month term for the remaining space.  The initial rent payments for the new facility will total approximately $352,000 annually and will escalate by approximately 1.3% each year.  In addition, PT will be responsible for payment of the utilities, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance on this property.
In addition, PT entered into a termination of lease agreement with the Landlord for PT's existing corporate headquarters facility, which waives PT's remaining obligations for the payment of  rent and real estate taxes through the expiration date of its current lease.  As part of these agreements, PT will commence paying rent and real estate taxes on the new facility as of January 1, 2012.
The lease and termination of lease agreements will be filed as exhibits to PT's March 31, 2012 Form 10-Q.
