Saint-Hubert, Quebec, May 24, 2023 - Urbanimmersive Inc. (“Urbanimmersive,” the “Company” or “UI”) (TSV-V UI) (OTCQB: UBMRF) announced today that Darryl Glade, individually and on behalf of Daryl L. Glade, LLC, along with Bjarne Haug and Bagmanden, LLC ("Plaintiffs"), have initiated legal proceedings against Urbanimmersive as former owners of Imoto, LLC. The plaintiffs allege various contractual breaches and related claims under the Purchase Agreement between UI and Imoto, as well as under a separate employment contract with Mr. Glade (Louisiana, Orleans CDC, Civil Suit No. 2023-0723).
In response to these allegations, Urbanimmersive maintains that all the plaintiffs' claims are unfounded and result from Mr. Glade's frustration of not having reached his first-year earn-out milestone. Urbanimmersive firmly intends to defend itself against the lawsuit and has referred the case to its insurer, which has confirmed coverage for legal fees. Additionally, Urbanimmersive is actively considering all its legal options and defenses, including counterclaims and third-party actions. Such counterclaims and third-party actions may include, but are not limited to, violations of employees' and management's duty of loyalty to Imoto before and during Urbanimmersive's integration of its business solution software, as well as the solicitation of Imoto's contractor photographers, employees, and clients to work with a competitive vendor. These actions have resulted in rapid and significant client losses for Urbanimmersive. The Company is determined to protect its interests and ensure a comprehensive examination of all relevant facts during the legal proceedings.
