Previous wording

In addition to the Merger Note to IDC, in the principal amount of $35 million, issued at the closing of the Merger, Lyneer’s existing debt obligations currently include all of the debt obligations of IDC as a co-borrower as all of the loan arrangements entered into by Lyneer and IDC provide that such parties are jointly and severally liable for the full amount of the indebtedness. While Lyneer is legally jointly and severally liable for IDC’s debt obligations, as of the date of the Merger, the Company deconsolidated its joint and several debt obligations as it is reasonably probable that IDC has the ability to repay their portion. At June 30, 2025, such indebtedness totaled approximately $70,373,516. The joint indebtedness of Lyneer and IDC is made up of a term note for the shortfall from the restructuring of the previous revolving credit facility, a term loan from their senior lenders and promissory notes that are payable to the two prior owners of Lyneer. Until such obligations are either repaid in full or restructured by the lenders to release Lyneer as an obligor on such indebtedness, if IDC cannot, or does not, repay any portion of the debt owed by IDC, Lyneer could be responsible for repaying all of the outstanding obligations and Lyneer’s current operations are not expected to be sufficient to make all of the necessary payments. Pursuant to an Allocation Agreement dated as of December 31, 2023, IDC agreed with Lyneer to assume responsibility for all payments under the term loan and the promissory notes payable to the two prior owners of Lyneer (the “Assumed Debt”). However, until such time as Lyneer’s joint and several debt obligations are restructured, the agreement of IDC to assume the joint indebtedness is being given effect solely for accounting purposes, although Lyneer will remain legally a joint and several obligor on such indebtedness and will be obligated to pay such indebtedness if IDC does not do so.

Previous wording

In addition, under the Allocation Agreement, IDC and Prateek Gattani, IDC’s Chief Executive Officer and our then Chairman of the Board, have agreed for IDC to work with Lyneer to implement a plan to refinance or otherwise satisfy the Assumed Debt for which Lyneer is currently jointly and severally liable with IDC so that Lyneer will be obligated for only its portion under the facility. Lyneer has entered into a new revolving credit facility that will be supportable by Lyneer’s stand-alone borrowing base. The new credit facility provides credit availability to Lyneer of up to $70,000,000 and will replace Lyneer’s remaining obligations under the existing revolving credit facility. However, there can be no assurance that Lyneer will be able to support its continuing indebtedness, to generate revenues sufficient in amount to enable us to pay our indebtedness under the Merger Note, or to repay or refinance any such indebtedness when due. Lyneer’s failure to comply with its obligations under its existing indebtedness following the Merger, or to repay or refinance such indebtedness when due, including our indebtedness under the Merger Note, would likely have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and long-term viability. The Company has significantly restructured the debt owed to BMO and entered into a new revolving credit agreement with SLR. See Note 8: Debt to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Previous wording

As described in the previous risk factor, notwithstanding the deconsolidation of debt for accounting purposes, Lyneer remains legally jointly and severally liable as a co-borrower with IDC on all loan arrangements for which they are now jointly liable until such time as such loan arrangements are paid in full. The assets of Lyneer have been pledged to the new lender under the new ABL credit facility and, in connection with the closing of the Merger, were pledged to the lender under the term loan our equity interests in Lyneer, our sole operating subsidiary, as collateral for the repayment of such loan. In the event Lyneer or IDC is unable to repay their joint and several indebtedness, or there occurs any other event of default under the revolving credit facility or the term loan, including, but not limited to, completion of an Initial Capital Raise (as defined), the lenders under the revolving credit facility and the term loan will be able to foreclose upon the equity and assets of Lyneer, which could result in a loss of your investment. Notwithstanding the fact that IDC and Prateek Gattani have agreed to repay the joint and several indebtedness under the Allocation Agreement, IDC has been unable to repay such indebtedness and Lyneer may be required to make such payments. In such event, IDC would then be required to repay Lyneer for the amounts paid on IDC’s behalf. The failure of IDC to repay the joint and several indebtedness would be expected to have a material adverse impact on Lyneer’s financial condition and its long-term viability and the market price of our common stock and there is no guarantee that the lenders will continue to work with the Company amicably.

Previous wording

Lyneer has one client that represented approximately 11% and 14% of Lyneer’s revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of Lyneer’s revenues in either period. The client’s contract with Lyneer consists of a master service agreement (“MSA”) for temporary employee services with various customer locations entering into separate service annexes. None of the revenues from a specific location exceeded 5% of the aggregate revenue associated with the client. The current term of the MSA expires in January 2026 and automatically renews for one-year subsequent terms. However, the client may terminate the agreement for convenience at any time, subject to any accrued payment obligations. If this client were to terminate its relationship with Lyneer, Lyneer would face a material decrease in revenues if it is unable to replace the client’s lost revenues. This, in turn, would be expected to have a material adverse effect on Lyneer’s business and financial condition.
