Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

The Company has initiated legal proceedings against XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI”) in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York (Case no. 1:23-cv-10656-JPO), along with other unnamed defendants, alleging fraudulent acts, breach of contract and misappropriation of intellectual property. In the complaint, the Company contends that XTI, utilizing false promises, induced substantial investments from the Company, in terms of millions of dollars together with valuable intellectual property, for the development of the TriFan 600  vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft.

 

The Company believes that the completed designs of the TriFan 600, a product of the Company’s significant investment, are integral to XTI’s impending merger with Inpixon. Despite the Company’s pivotal role in facilitating this merger, as memorialized in a formal agreement, XTI has publicly disclaimed any obligation to compensate the Company. In response to XTI’s alleged fraudulent conduct, deceptive maneuvers and intentional breaches, the Company is seeking a range of remedies. These include the recovery of losses, expenses, attorneys’ fees, punitive damages and a compensatory damage award exceeding $500 million. Additionally, the Company is pursuing a court order to enjoin any further misappropriation of the jointly owned TriFan 600 designs and to prevent additional breaches of the Company’s rights. The legal action aims to address the alleged misconduct comprehensively and to protect the Company’s interests in the face of XTI’s actions.

 

The foregoing description of the legal action does not purport to be complete and is subject in its entirety by the full text of the Complaint, a copy of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
