Item 3. Legal Proceedings
On July 11, 2019, Dr. Bessie (Chia) Soo and Dr. Kang (Eric) Ting (“Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint (the “Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts against the Company, Bruce Stroever (“Stroever”), John Booth (“Booth”), Stephen LaNeve (“LaNeve”, and together with Stroever and Booth, the “Individual Defendants”), and MTF Biologics (f/k/a The Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Inc.) (“MTF”). The Complaint alleged claims for breach of contract against the Company and tortious interference with contract against the Individual Defendants and MTF arising from the termination of the Professional Service Agreements, dated as of January 8, 2016, between the Company and each of the Plaintiffs. The Individual Defendants were sued for actions taken by them in connection with their service to the Company as directors and/or officers of the Company. As such, we have certain indemnification obligations to the Individual Defendants.
On January 10, 2024 we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the “Agreement”) with the Plaintiffs on the one hand, and the Company and LaNeve on the other hand, in settlement of the claims for breach of contract and tortious interference with contract. The Agreement is effective as of January 9, 2024.
Under the Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the plaintiffs $750,000, and on February 7, 2024, the Company paid $414,989, and the Company’s insurance carrier paid $335,011 for the total settlement. The parties to the Agreement have filed a joint stipulation to dismiss the action with prejudice with the Court and the Company expects the action to be dismissed by the Court.
In the normal course of our business, we may periodically become subject to various lawsuits. However, except as noted above, there are currently no legal actions pending against us or, to our knowledge, are any such proceedings contemplated.
