LEGAL SETTLEMENT	On August 11, 2015, PSKW, LLC (“PSKW”) served the Company, with a complaint styled PSKW, LLC v. 3Pea International, Inc., filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Case No. 5:15-cv-03576-RMW, San Jose Division (the “Action”). In the Action, PSKW asserted claims against the Company for $5,800,000 for marketing fees allegedly due by the Company. The Company contended, among other things, that PSKW breached its agreement with the Company, for which the Company was damaged in an amount in excess of the amount which PSKW claimed was owed by the Company to PSKW. The parties each denied liability, and entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release on October 2, 2015 whereby the Company agreed to pay $2,500,000 to PSKW in full settlement of the Action. The settlement amount was payable by an initial payment of $1,000,000 which was paid in October 2015, with the balance of $1,500,000 being payable in equal monthly installments over 18 months with interest at 3% per annum commencing on November 1, 2015. The Court dismissed the Action with prejudice, but retained jurisdiction to enforce the Settlement Agreement. 3Pea Technologies, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, guaranteed the amount due under the Settlement Agreement. The Company expensed the entire $2,500,000 settlement during the year ended December 31, 2015 since the principal terms of the Settlement Agreement had been agreed to as of that date. As of March 31, 2017, the settlement was paid in full.
