NOTE 10 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On or about November 13, 2017, David A. Badhwa and Denise a Badhwa (collectively “Plaintiffs”) filed a lawsuit in district court in Hennepin County, Minnesota asserting that the Company breached the terms of a promissory note. Plaintiffs seek repayment on the principal of the promissory note, in the amount of $100,000, $10,000 of which Plaintiffs contend Veritec previously paid, plus interest, collection costs and attorney’s fees. As of May 15, 2018, the date of the last communication on the amount of recovery that Plaintiffs seek, Plaintiffs sought an award or settlement in the amount of $162,990. If Plaintiff’s prevail on their claims, the Court could award Plaintiffs the unpaid principal in the amount of $90,000, plus interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum on the unpaid balance, as well as attorney’s fees incurred by Plaintiffs in seeking payment on the promissory note in an amount determined by the Court. An award of attorney’s fees could be significant. Veritec has vigorously defended Plaintiffs claims and has asserted a variety of counterclaims against Plaintiffs. Veritec has also attempted to engage Plaintiffs in settlement discussions, but Plaintiffs have not engaged in meaningful negotiations to resolve the claims in dispute.

 

On September 21, 2016, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with an individual who was a former officer of the Company.  The individual in prior years was also issued 500,000 shares of common stock for services.  The Company alleged that the individual used the Company's intellectual property without approval.   Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the individual agreed to relinquish a convertible note payable and unpaid interest aggregating $364,686, and return 500,000 shares of common stock previously issued to him.  In turn, the Company agreed to release and discharge the individual against all claims arising on or prior to the date of the settlement agreement.  The Company recorded a gain on the settlement of $364,686 in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2018, the 500,000 shares have not been relinquished. When the Company receives the shares, it will record a cancellation of shares.
