Item 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously reported on June 28, 2017 by Gadsden Properties, Inc, formerly known as FC Global Realty Incorporated and, prior to that, known as PhotoMedex, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), on June 23, 2017 the Company entered into a Confidential Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement with DS Healthcare Group, Inc. (“DSKX”) under which the Company agreed to drop its lawsuit against DSKX in exchange for certain settlement payments. The lawsuit stemmed from a failed merger arrangement between DSKX and two of the Company’s subsidiaries in 2016. DSKX was to begin settlement payments under specified circumstances, but no later than the completion of its own suit against its former legal representatives for legal malpractice and other claims. That suit was completed in April 2019; DSKX did not make the required payments to the Company, and the Company commenced another suit against DSKX on June 21, 2019.
On September 13, 2019, the Company entered into a Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) with DSKX, under which DSKX will pay to the Company the original settlement sum of $800,000 plus applicable interest of 6% per annum. The Agreement took effect upon the Company’s receipt of an initial payment of $80,000 from DSKX on September 13, 2019. Under the Agreement, DSKX will pay the remainder of the original settlement amount to the Company over a period of not more than 48 months, with an option to prepay. In exchange, the Company received a security interest in DSKX’s future accounts receivable and it dismissed its current suit against DSKX, although the Florida state court in which that suit was filed will retain jurisdiction over the settlement arrangement. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, if DSKX fails to make payments, the settlement amount may be accelerated and becomes immediately payable. Each party agreed to a mutual release of claims against the other, and paid its own legal fees and costs in connection with the Agreement.
