The Company has been named as a defendant in three complaints filed in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada: Yilan Shi v. Paysign, Inc. et. al., filed on March 19, 2020, Lorna Chase v. Paysign, Inc. et. al., filed on March 25, 2020 and Smith & Duvall v. Paysign, Inc. et. al., filed on April 2, 2020 (collectively, the “Complaints”). Smith & Duvall v. Paysign, Inc. et. al. was voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff on May 21, 2020. The complaints are putative class action lawsuits filed on behalf of a class of persons who acquired the Company’s common stock from March 12, 2020 through March 15, 2020, inclusive. The Complaints allege that the Company, Mark R. Newcomer, and Mark Attinger violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, and Messrs. Newcomer and Attinger violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, by making materially false or misleading statements, or failing to disclose material facts, regarding our internal control over financial reporting and our financial statements. The Complaints seek certification as a class action, compensatory damages, and attorney’s fees and costs. Paysign has not been served any of the complaints as of the date of this filing and cannot give any meaningful probability of outcome or damages.
