Item 1.01         Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On April 28, 2023, WaveDancer, Inc. (the “Company”) and Jeffrey Gerald, the individual from whom the Company purchased all the outstanding shares of Gray Matters, Inc. (“GMI”), executed an agreement to settle pending litigation between them (the “Settlement Agreement”). On January 25, 2023, Gerald, as the result of the termination of his employment, filed a lawsuit against the Company for one year’s severance of $150,000 and benefits to which he claims he was entitled under his employment agreement with the Company. He has also claimed an anticipatory breach of the payment of $1,500,000 of deferred consideration otherwise due him on December 10, 2023, under the Stock Purchase Agreement between him and the Company and the anticipatory breach to release from escrow 436,481 shares of the Company’s common stock which are held in escrow for application against potential indemnity claims under the Stock Purchase Agreement.
 
The Company filed an answer denying Gerald’s claims. In addition, the Company filed a counterclaim seeking damages from Gerald associated with the acquisition transaction and arising under the Stock Purchase Agreement.
 
The principal terms of the Settlement Agreement are:
 
 
(a)
All amounts due to Gerald related to the GMI acquisition, including the $1,500,000 of deferred consideration, are deemed satisfied and such obligations are extinguished;
 
 
(b)
The Company will release from escrow 436,481 shares of the Company’s common stock 90 days after the date of the Settlement Agreement;
 
 
(c)
The Company will pay Gerald $25,000 as reimbursement for legal costs; and,
 
 
(d)
Gerald and the Company agreed to mutual general releases of one another.
