Item 8. Other Events.
On October 20, 2023, Sweet Cut Grow, LLC and Green Ice, LLC (collectively, “Claimant”) a client of the Company with which it had an equipment contract and engineering contract, filed a demand for arbitration asserting claims for breach of contract, breach of warranty, and unjust enrichment, and demand for $1,049,280 in damages, plus interest (“Claims”). The Company denies all the Claims. The Company believes Claimant is owed nothing as the Company fulfilled all its obligations under the contracts to Claimant, and further, that the negligence of a third-party supplier is the basis of the Claims. The Company’s equipment contract with Claimant requires the parties to arbitrate their disputes under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration will be heard in Denver, Colorado. There are no scheduled hearing dates currently. The parties will pay their own legal fees and expenses. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously, believing there are no merits to the claims as currently presented.
