The parties, including the Company’s insurer Gemini, settled the case and the order and judgment approving final settlement were entered during a hearing on May 15, 2024. After the hearing on May 15, 2024, Mr. Gross filed a crossclaim within the same case against several of the Company’s insurers (Zurich American Ins. Co., American Guarantee and Liability Insurance Co., and American Zurich Insurance Co. (collectively, the “Zurich Insurers”)), which had intervened in the case. On June 14, 2024, the Zurich Insurers filed a motion to amend the judgment and then removed the case to federal court. They purport to have removed only part of the case to federal court but the Company is unaware of any authority for a partial removal. The Zurich Insurers have subsequently filed a declaratory judgment action against the Company and Mr. Gross in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida pursuant to which they seek a declaration that their policies provided no coverage to the Company, they had no duty to defend the Company, and they did not wrongfully deny coverage to the Company. On June 24, 2024, the Zurich Insurers filed a notice of appeal of the judgment that they previously moved to amend in state court.

On March 9, 2021, the Company filed suit against Jeremiah Gross for a deficiency balance owed to the Company following the 2018 surrender and sale of his motor vehicle which secured a loan from the Company.
