Item 9. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Legal Matter: Request for Negotiation under the Bilateral Investment Treaty between the United States and Jamaica

 

On February 8, 2024 Music Licensing, Inc. (“the Company”), represented by its legal team, initiated a dialogue with the Jamaican government under the provisions of the Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) between the United States and Jamaica. The purpose of this engagement is to address issues arising from challenges faced by the Company in its investments in the Jamaican Stock Exchange.

 

The Company, a United States-based entity, has been an active foreign investor in Jamaica’s music and entertainment sector. However, it has encountered significant challenges attributable to governmental actions and omissions in Jamaica, resulting in substantial monetary damages to its investments. These challenges include arbitrary changes in regulatory frameworks, lack of enforcement of existing regulations, and direct interference in business operations.

 

The Company believes these actions contravene the commitments Jamaica has made under the United States and Jamaica BIT, specifically regarding the fair and equitable treatment of foreign investments and the obligation to provide full protection and security.

 

As a result of these challenges, the Company seeks to initiate consultations and negotiations with the Jamaican government to reach an amicable resolution, as outlined in Article VI of the United States and Jamaica BIT. The Company is prepared to provide further details on its claims, including evidence of damages incurred, and is open to discussing proposals from the Jamaican government to address its concerns.

 

The outcome of these negotiations may have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Any resolution reached could affect the Company’s future investments and operations in Jamaica.

 

The Company is committed to resolving this matter in a manner that is fair and equitable for both parties, in accordance with the principles established by the United States-Jamaica BIT.

 

The Company will provide updates on significant developments related to this legal matter as they occur.
