Kinda OLD news, but provides a small amount of clarity on the legal filing.. Of course the agreement extension is not mentioned since it took place after the 10-K filing.
From PHOT's Annual Report http://www.otcmarkets.com/edgar/GetFilingPdf?...ID=9891304 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company discloses the following pending legal actions to which we are a party or of which our property is the subject that may have a material adverse affect on our business and operations:
On March 20, 2014, Wise Phoenix, LLC (“WP”) and AJOA Holdings, LLC (“AJOA”), collectively referred to as the “Sellers,” and R.X.N.B., Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“RXNB”) initiated a lawsuit against the Company and OGI, the Company’s Joint Venture, in Clark County, Nevada in its Business Court division in regards to a Sellers Interest Purchase Agreement (“RXNB Agreement”) with the Company and OGI. The Sellers and RXNB claim that the Company must effect registration of Company shares issuable to Seller in connection with the
RXNB Agreement since it had complied with the provisions set forth in the RXNB Agreement and delivered documents and instruments to the Company. The Company contends that the Sellers and RXNB have not met the requirements established by the RXNB Agreement and therefore the Company is not obligated to register or issue the shares.
On March 24, 2014, Sellers, RXNB, OGI and the Company agreed to extend the closing date of the RXNB Agreement to April 4, 2014. Additionally, Sellers and RXNB agreed to withdraw their lawsuit against the Company and OGI without prejudice.
The Company has from time to time been involved in disputes and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition, as a public company, we are also potentially susceptible to litigation, such as claims asserting violations of securities laws. Any such claims, with or without merit, if not resolved, could be time-consuming and result in costly litigation. There can be no assurance that an adverse result in any future proceeding would not have a potentially material adverse affect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
