On July 18, 2016, Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) received an Amended Satisfaction of Default Judgment dated as of July 5, 2016 (the “Amended Default Judgment”) filed by Cherry Bekaert, LLP (“Cherry Bekaert”), through its counsel, in the action against the Company in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida, Case No. 16-002062-CA-01 (the “Action”) whereby Cherry Bekaert, et al., acknowledged the Company has fully satisfied all sums due to Cherry Bekaert, et al., under the Action.

 

As previously disclosed by the Company in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the arbitrator, Lawrence Saichek, ruled against the Company on December 29, 2015 awarding Cherry Bekaert the full $31,280 for amounts due to Cherry Bekaert for service provided to the Company plus legal fee reimbursement, and court costs reimbursed. The total award was $47,568, including fees relating to Mr. Saichek’s service. The amount of the judgment subsequently increased to $51,387 due to interest accruing. On April 25, 2016, the Company made a $15,000 payment to Cherry Bekaert towards this outstanding amount. On June 28, 2016, the remaining balance of $36,387 was paid by the Company to Cherry Bekaert, et al.
