In the future, we might from time to time become involved in litigation relating to claims arising from our ordinary course of business.

The Company filed a complaint against COE Bridgewater, LLC (its “Landlord”) in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Somerset County, Chancery Division on July 11, 2025 alleging principally that Landlord illegally locked the Company out of its leased premises in Bridgewater, New Jersey. As a result of the illegal lockout, the Company seeks (among other things) a declaration that the lease and all obligations thereunder, including rent, terminated as of the date of the lockout. On September 5, 2025, Landlord filed an answer with counterclaims, which it amended on December 12, 2025. In the counterclaims, Landlord seeks a declaration that there was no lockout, or that the lockout was justified, and therefore the lease remains in effect. Landlord also seeks damages for the Company’s alleged failure to pay approximately $205,000 in rent (as of December 31, 2025) following the lockout, and alleged conversion of certain furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) items within the premises belonging to Landlord. The amounts potentially payable under the lease have been reserved until the matter is resolved. The Company is currently in settlement negotiations with the Landlord, however there can be no assurance such a settlement will be achieved.
