Item 8.01Other Events

 

On February 20, 2018, Crede Capital Group LLC (“Crede”) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for Summary Judgment in Lieu of Complaint requiring the Company to pay cash owed to Crede. Crede claims that Precipio has breached a Securities Purchase Agreement and Warrant that Crede entered into in connection with an investment in Transgenomic, Inc., the predecessor of the Company and that pursuant to those agreements, Precipio currently owes Crede the sum of $2,205,008.00. In addition to the aforementioned sum, Crede is also demanding that the Company shall pay an additional sum of $3,737.32 per day between the date of the summons and the date that judgment is entered, plus interest. As previously disclosed by the Company, Crede had sent the Company a letter claiming that the Company owed Crede $1.8 million.

 

The Company is evaluating Crede’s claims. There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this case. An adverse outcome could have a material adverse effect on financial condition and liquidity.
