For the year ended December 31, 2017, both Premier Packaging and Plastic Printing Professionals were in compliance with the annual covenants. *Other Debt* - On February 13, 2014, the Company’s subsidiary, DSS Technology Management, Inc. (“DSS Technology Management” or “DSSTM”), entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated February 13, 2014 (the “Effective Date”) with Fortress Credit Co LLC, as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent” or “Fortress”), and certain investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which DSSTM contracted to receive a series of advances up to $4,500,000 (collectively, the “Advances”). Under the terms of the Agreement, on the Effective Date, DSSTM issued and sold a promissory note in the amount of $1,791,000, fixed return equity interests in the amount of $199,000, and contingent equity interests in the amount of $10,000, to each of the Investors, and in return received $2,000,000 in proceeds. To secure the Advances, DSSTM placed a lien in favor of the Investors on ten semi-conductor patents (the “Patents”) and assigned to the Investors certain funds recoverable from successful patent litigation involving these Patents, including settlement payments, license fees and royalties on the Patents. DSSTM is a plaintiff in various ongoing patent infringement lawsuits involving certain of the Patents. On March 27, 2014, DSSTM received an additional $1,000,000 under the Agreement comprised of a promissory note for $900,000 and fixed and contingent equity interests of $100,000. On September 5, 2014, DSSTM received the remaining $1,500,000 under the Agreement comprised of a promissory note for $1,350,000 and fixed and contingent return interests of $150,000. On May 23, 2016, DSSTM remitted $495,000 in proceeds received from the sale of patent assets (Note 5) to Fortress under the terms of the Agreement. On September 20, 2016, DSSTM remitted $125,250 in proceeds received from a settlement to Fortress as repayment of the note principal balance under the terms of the Agreement. The Agreement defined certain events as Events of Default, one of which is the failure by DSSTM, on or before the second anniversary of the Effective Date, to make payments to the Investors equal to the outstanding Advances. On February 13, 2016, being the second anniversary date of the Effective Date, DSSTM had failed to make these payments and was therefore in default of the Agreement. On December 2, 2016, the parties entered into a First Amendment to Investment Agreement and Certain Other Documents (the “Amendment”). The purpose of the Amendment was to vacate DSSTM’s ongoing non-payment default under the Agreement, and to amend certain provisions of the Agreement. The Agreement also was amended to add expenses in the amount of $150,000 to DSSTM’s payment obligation, payable on the Maturity Date. This amount was recorded as debt issuance costs and was being amortized on a straight-line basis through the amended maturity date of February 13, 2018. The Amendment added a provision whereby DSSTM was required to deposit $300,000 on or before March 2, 2017 and (ii) a further sum of $300,000 on or before March 2, 2018, into a deposit account (collectively, the “Deposit”). The March 2, 2017 and March 2, 2018 deposits were made in a timely manner. The Deposit funds were restricted to pay certain expenses, consisting of out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with certain existing patent litigation matters and other patent litigation matters which may occur after the Amendment Effective Date (the “Qualified Expenses”). In the Event of Default, the Investors would apply the then remaining Deposit to the then outstanding Obligations, if any. Additionally per the Amendment, DSSTM agreed to pay to the Investors an amount equal to 25% of any amounts received by DSSTM for any and all types of monetization activities related to certain of its patents covering systems and methods of using low power wireless peripheral devices (collectively, “BlueTooth Patents”), but only until the Investors have received payments under the Agreement totaling the sum of (i) the Capitalized Expenses plus (ii) payments of principal and interest on the Notes totaling the sum of (x) $4,500,000 (consisting of the previously made Advances) plus (y) additional amounts, if any, advanced by the Investors pursuant to the Agreement. In addition to the monetization interest granted the Investors in the BlueTooth Patents, DSSTM also granted the Collateral Agent and the Investors a security interest in certain of DSSTM’s unencumbered semiconductor patents to further collateralize the amounts owed under the Agreement. As of February 13, 2018, DSSTM had made aggregate principal payments of $794,283 on the notes. On February 13, 2018, the Maturity Date, DSS Technology Management defaulted by failing to pay the investors an amount equal to (x) two times the aggregate amount of all advances made by the investors as of such date plus (y) the Capitalized Expenses. The sole recourse available to the investors under the Agreement, as amended, was the establishment of a special purpose entity controlled by the investors which would take ownership of the collateral consisting of the patents covered under the amended Agreement. Each of the investors and the collateral agent had contractually agreed that they would not, individually or collectively, seek to enforce any monetary judgment with respect to or against any assets of the Company other than the patents and the monetization payments and the remaining deposit. On June 26, 2018, the parties agreed that the amounts due under the Agreement having an aggregate remaining balance of $3,714,129 as of the Maturity Date, are discharged, without the assignment to the Investors of any of the collateral that secured the repayment under the Agreement. In addition, the Company confirmed its obligation to pay the Investors $345,000 that remained from an aggregate of $600,000 that had been deposited and restricted to cover expenses related to the IP monetization activities. Furthermore, the parties agreed that in the event there are any future recoveries by DSSTM with respect to monetization activities relating to the collateralized patents or applicable proceed rights set forth in the Agreement, the contractual payment provisions of the original Agreement will apply, and the Investors will be entitled to receive payment of such proceeds. As a result of this agreement, the Company paid $345,000 from restricted cash and recorded a gain of extinguishment of liabilities of $3,372,129 to reflect the discharge of the notes, wrote off contingent equity interests of $459,000 eliminated by the agreement, and wrote-off the underlying patents which had an aggregated gross cost of $2,655,000 and a net unamortized carrying amount of $295,470 on the agreement date, all of which resulted in the a net gain on the extinguishment of liabilities of $3,532,659 recorded in the three months ending June 30, 2018.

The Agreement defined certain events as Events of Default, one of which is the failure by DSSTM, on or before the second anniversary of the Effective Date, to make payments to the Investors equal to the outstanding Advances. On February 13, 2016, being the second anniversary date of the Effective Date, DSSTM had failed to make these payments and was therefore in default of the Agreement. On December 2, 2016, the parties entered into a First Amendment to Investment Agreement and Certain Other Documents (the “Amendment”). The purpose of the Amendment was to vacate DSSTM’s ongoing non-payment default under the Agreement, and to amend certain provisions of the Agreement.

The Agreement also was amended to add expenses in the amount of $150,000 to DSSTM’s payment obligation, payable on the Maturity Date. This amount was recorded as debt issuance costs and was being amortized on a straight-line basis through the amended maturity date of February 13, 2018.

In the Event of Default, the Investors would apply the then remaining Deposit to the then outstanding Obligations, if any.

Additionally per the Amendment, DSSTM agreed to pay to the Investors an amount equal to 25% of any amounts received by DSSTM for any and all types of monetization activities related to certain of its patents covering systems and methods of using low power wireless peripheral devices (collectively, “BlueTooth Patents”), but only until the Investors have received payments under the Agreement totaling the sum of (i) the Capitalized Expenses plus (ii) payments of principal and interest on the Notes totaling the sum of (x) $4,500,000 (consisting of the previously made Advances) plus (y) additional amounts, if any, advanced by the Investors pursuant to the Agreement.

As of February 13, 2018, DSSTM had made aggregate principal payments of $794,283 on the notes. On February 13, 2018, the Maturity Date, DSS Technology Management defaulted by failing to pay the investors an amount equal to (x) two times the aggregate amount of all advances made by the investors as of such date plus (y) the Capitalized Expenses. The sole recourse available to the investors under the Agreement, as amended, was the establishment of a special purpose entity controlled by the investors which would take ownership of the collateral consisting of the patents covered under the amended Agreement. Each of the investors and the collateral agent had contractually agreed that they would not, individually or collectively, seek to enforce any monetary judgment with respect to or against any assets of the Company other than the patents and the monetization payments and the remaining deposit. On June 26, 2018, the parties agreed that the amounts due under the Agreement having an aggregate remaining balance of $3,714,129 as of the Maturity Date, are discharged, without the assignment to the Investors of any of the collateral that secured the repayment under the Agreement. In addition, the Company confirmed its obligation to pay the Investors $345,000 that remained from an aggregate of $600,000 that had been deposited and restricted to cover expenses related to the IP monetization activities. Furthermore, the parties agreed that in the event there are any future recoveries by DSSTM with respect to monetization activities relating to the collateralized patents or applicable proceed rights set forth in the Agreement, the contractual payment provisions of the original Agreement will apply, and the Investors will be entitled to receive payment of such proceeds. As a result of this agreement, the Company paid $345,000 from restricted cash and recorded a gain of extinguishment of liabilities of $3,372,129 to reflect the discharge of the notes, wrote off contingent equity interests of $459,000 eliminated by the agreement, and wrote-off the underlying patents which had an aggregated gross cost of $2,655,000 and a net unamortized carrying amount of $295,470 on the agreement date, all of which resulted in the a net gain on the extinguishment of liabilities of $3,532,659 recorded in the three months ending June 30, 2018.
