Class Action Complaints

On March 8, 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware by plaintiff Richard Delman against certain defendants including the Company’s former directors (the “Delman Defendants”). Neither the Company nor Eos Energy Storage LLC were named as a defendant but each was identified in the Complaint as a relevant non-party and the Company has indemnification obligations relating to the lawsuit. On February 1, 2024, the parties agreed to a binding Settlement Term Sheet (the “Settlement”) whereby plaintiff agreed to resolve the lawsuit in exchange for a settlement payment of $8,500, consisting of cash payments previously made by the Company of approximately $1,000 and an additional cash payment of approximately $7,500 funded by the Company’s Directors and Officers (“D&O”) liability insurance policies. The definitive settlement agreement is currently being negotiated between the parties. Once finalized, the settlement agreement will be submitted to the Court of Chancery for final approval.

On August 1, 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court of New Jersey by plaintiff William Houck against the Company, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, its former Chief Financial Officer and its current Chief Financial Officer (with the Company, the “Houck Defendants”). The Complaint alleges that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making knowingly false or misleading statements about the Company’s contractual relationship with a customer and about the size of the Company’s order backlog and commercial pipeline. Defendants deny the allegations and, on February 13, 2024, moved to dismiss the Complaint. On March 5, 2024, plaintiff filed an amended complaint that dropped the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer as a defendant. On April 4, 2024, defendants filed a renewed motion to dismiss the lawsuit. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against this action.
