Important Update on Pending Litigation
In late 2017, the Company commenced litigation against Los Angeles Farmers, Inc. (L.A. Farmers), a medical marijuana growing and retail company based in Los Angeles, and David and Irina Vayntrub, who were the sole officers, directors and members of L.A. Farmers, seeking to enforce its contract rights under a Strategic Consulting Agreement. The action was originally filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court and was subsequently stayed so that the matter could be arbitrated before a federal judge at Judicate West in Los Angeles. In January 2021, the Company entered into a confidential settlement with the Vayntrubs that resolved all claims between the Company and the Vayntrubs. In February 2021, the Company and L.A. Farmers conducted a four-day arbitration hearing at Judicate West.
On April 8, 2021, the Judge issued his Arbitration Award, which found in favor of the Company and against L.A. Farmers on all claims. The judgment awards 49% of L.A. Farmers business to the Company as of November 2017, along with a share of any profits from November 2017 to the present and going forward, accrued interest and litigation costs. The Judge also appointed a monitor to conduct an accounting of L.A. Farmers business to determine how much the Company is entitled to under the award.
Because the arbitration award is final, L.A. Farmers has no appellate rights and there is little to no possibility that the arbitration award will be modified or overturned in any material respect, said Chief Executive Officer Evan Horowitz. We are in the process of confirming the arbitration award and working with the monitor to have him commence his work. The financial impact of this arbitration award is unknown at this time.
