| Item 8.01 | Other Information. |
On June 7, 2023, Organicell filed a four-count complaint with the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida against Albert Mitrani and Dr. Maria Ines Mitrani, co-founders of the Company. Albert Mitrani was a former director and executive officer of the Company (most recently serving as Chief Executive Officer from September 2019 to July 2022 and as Executive Vice President of Sales from July 2022 until his termination in May 2023) and Dr. Mitrani is a current director and former executive officer of the Company (serving as Chief Science Officer from November 2016 until her termination in April 2023). The complaint alleges (i) breach of contract; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) tortious interference with business relationships; and seeks injunctive relief, in connection with, inter alia, non-solicitation and non-competition violations, misappropriation of Organicell materials and proprietary information resulting in unjust enrichment, causing detriment to business relationships and goodwill towards customers and physicians, self-dealing and misconduct afoul to Organicell’s business interests as members of Organicell’s board of directors, executive officers and minority equity interest holders—all causing irreparable harm to Organicell. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, in addition to both compensatory and punitive damages.
