Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement:
•Luxor surrendered all 144,212 shares of AAMC Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) it held to AAMC. Luxor and AAMC agreed that their related Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 13, 2014 (the “SPA”), along with the Certificate of Designations dated March 17, 2014 attached thereto (the “Certificate”), are void and all rights thereunder are extinguished.
•The Company shall provide the following consideration to Luxor:

•Three Promissory Notes in the following principal amounts and durations:
•A Note in the principal amount of $2,000,000 due and payable on the three (3) year anniversary of the Effective Date;

The Company shall refrain from making common stock repurchases or issuing dividends at any time the PIK option is in effect and is subject to certain additional covenants enumerated in the Notes.
•The Company shall also pay Luxor 50% of any proceeds received in respect of its damage claims in the action brought by Erbey Holding Corporation pending in USVI Superior Court with case number SX-2018-CV-146, up to a cumulative payout cap to Luxor of $50,000,000.

be rescinded.

PAYMENTS 2.1 Payments of Principal and Interest. (a) The outstanding principal amount of the Loan made to AAMC and evidenced by this Note, together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided, shall be due and payable in cash by AAMC to Luxor on the Maturity Date, subject to acceleration of the maturity as provided below. (b) Interest on the principal amount hereof will accrue at the Interest Rate. The accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan hereunder is due and payable on each such Interest Accrual Date. AAMC must deliver a written notice to Luxor at least five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Accrual Date of AAMC’s election to pay interest either entirely (i) in cash (the “Cash Option”) or (ii) in-kind (the “PIK Option”). Once AAMC elects the Cash Option, it may not revoke its election with respect to such Interest Accrual Date. If AAMC fails to deliver a written notice at least five (5) Business Days before each applicable Interest Accrual Date to Luxor of its
3 election of either the Cash Option or the PIK Option, AAMC will be deemed to have elected the PIK Option. If AAMC elects the Cash Option, AAMC shall pay all interest payments payable herein on each Interest Accrual Date in cash. If AAMC elects the PIK Option, AAMC shall pay all interest payments payable herein on each Interest Accrual Date in-kind (“PIK Interest”), which PIK Interest shall be automatically capitalized on the applicable Interest Accrual Date by adding such amount to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, following any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loan upon a payment of PIK Interest on any Interest Accrual Date, the Loan shall bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such Interest Accrual Date, and all references herein to the principal amount of the Loan shall include all interest accrued and capitalized as a result of any payment of PIK Interest except as otherwise specified. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, and charged for the actual number of days elapsed. 2.2 Manner of Payment. All payments received shall be applied first against costs of collection and other expenses, if any, then against accrued and unpaid interest, if any, then against principal. Principal, interest, and all other amounts due under this Note will be payable, in U.S. dollars, in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to Luxor to such account or at such address as designated by Luxor in writing to AAMC. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment will be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time will be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note. All amounts due under this Note shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, or any other defense or deduction whatsoever. 2.3 Optional Prepayment. AAMC may prepay the Loan evidenced hereby at any time in whole or in part, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon in cash, without premium or penalty. Any prepayment, whether in whole or in part, shall be applied first to reimburse Luxor for any expenses, costs, fees, and disbursements incurred and due hereunder, second, to any accrued interest, and third to principal, and interest shall immediately cease to run on any amount of the principal so prepaid. 2.4 Frustration of Repayment. Immediately prior to entering into any agreement, arrangement, or understanding that restricts the ability of AAMC to repay the Loan or interest when, as, and if due in accordance with the terms of this Note, all principal, all accrued interest then remaining unpaid, and other amounts payable in connection with this Note shall become automatically immediately due and payable in cash. 3.

PAYMENTS 2.1 Payments of Principal and Interest. (a) The outstanding principal amount of the Loan made to AAMC and evidenced by this Note, together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided, shall be due and payable in cash by AAMC to Luxor on the Maturity Date, subject to acceleration of the maturity as provided below. (b) Interest on the principal amount hereof will accrue at the Interest Rate. The accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan hereunder is due and payable on each such Interest Accrual Date. AAMC must deliver a written notice to Luxor at least five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Accrual Date of AAMC’s election to pay interest either entirely (i) in cash (the “Cash Option”) or (ii) in-kind (the “PIK Option”). Once AAMC elects the Cash Option, it may not revoke its election with respect to such Interest Accrual Date. If AAMC fails to deliver a written notice at least five (5) Business Days before each applicable Interest Accrual Date to Luxor of its
3 election of either the Cash Option or the PIK Option, AAMC will be deemed to have elected the PIK Option. If AAMC elects the Cash Option, AAMC shall pay all interest payments payable herein on each Interest Accrual Date in cash. If AAMC elects the PIK Option, AAMC shall pay all interest payments payable herein on each Interest Accrual Date in-kind (“PIK Interest”), which PIK Interest shall be automatically capitalized on the applicable Interest Accrual Date by adding such amount to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, following any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loan upon a payment of PIK Interest on any Interest Accrual Date, the Loan shall bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such Interest Accrual Date, and all references herein to the principal amount of the Loan shall include all interest accrued and capitalized as a result of any payment of PIK Interest except as otherwise specified. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, and charged for the actual number of days elapsed. 2.2 Manner of Payment. All payments received shall be applied first against costs of collection and other expenses, if any, then against accrued and unpaid interest, if any, then against principal. Principal, interest, and all other amounts due under this Note will be payable, in U.S. dollars, in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to Luxor to such account or at such address as designated by Luxor in writing to AAMC. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment will be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time will be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note. All amounts due under this Note shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, or any other defense or deduction whatsoever. 2.3 Optional Prepayment. AAMC may prepay the Loan evidenced hereby at any time in whole or in part, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon in cash, without premium or penalty. Any prepayment, whether in whole or in part, shall be applied first to reimburse Luxor for any expenses, costs, fees, and disbursements incurred and due hereunder, second, to any accrued interest, and third to principal, and interest shall immediately cease to run on any amount of the principal so prepaid. 2.4 Frustration of Repayment. Immediately prior to entering into any agreement, arrangement, or understanding that restricts the ability of AAMC to repay the Loan or interest when, as, and if due in accordance with the terms of this Note, all principal, all accrued interest then remaining unpaid, and other amounts payable in connection with this Note shall become automatically immediately due and payable in cash. 3.

PAYMENTS 2.1 Payments of Principal and Interest. (a) The outstanding principal amount of the Loan made to AAMC and evidenced by this Note, together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided, shall be due and payable in cash by AAMC to Luxor on the Maturity Date, subject to acceleration of the maturity as provided below. (b) Interest on the principal amount hereof will accrue at the Interest Rate. The accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan hereunder is due and payable on each such Interest Accrual Date. AAMC must deliver a written notice to Luxor at least five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Accrual Date of AAMC’s election to pay interest either entirely (i) in cash (the “Cash Option”) or (ii) in-kind (the “PIK Option”). Once AAMC elects the Cash Option, it may not revoke its election with respect to such Interest Accrual Date. If AAMC fails to deliver a written notice at least five (5) Business Days before each applicable Interest Accrual Date to Luxor of its
3 election of either the Cash Option or the PIK Option, AAMC will be deemed to have elected the PIK Option. If AAMC elects the Cash Option, AAMC shall pay all interest payments payable herein on each Interest Accrual Date in cash. If AAMC elects the PIK Option, AAMC shall pay all interest payments payable herein on each Interest Accrual Date in-kind (“PIK Interest”), which PIK Interest shall be automatically capitalized on the applicable Interest Accrual Date by adding such amount to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, following any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loan upon a payment of PIK Interest on any Interest Accrual Date, the Loan shall bear interest on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such Interest Accrual Date, and all references herein to the principal amount of the Loan shall include all interest accrued and capitalized as a result of any payment of PIK Interest except as otherwise specified. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, and charged for the actual number of days elapsed. 2.2 Manner of Payment. All payments received shall be applied first against costs of collection and other expenses, if any, then against accrued and unpaid interest, if any, then against principal. Principal, interest, and all other amounts due under this Note will be payable, in U.S. dollars, in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to Luxor to such account or at such address as designated by Luxor in writing to AAMC. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment will be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time will be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note. All amounts due under this Note shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, or any other defense or deduction whatsoever. 2.3 Optional Prepayment. AAMC may prepay the Loan evidenced hereby at any time in whole or in part, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon in cash, without premium or penalty. Any prepayment, whether in whole or in part, shall be applied first to reimburse Luxor for any expenses, costs, fees, and disbursements incurred and due hereunder, second, to any accrued interest, and third to principal, and interest shall immediately cease to run on any amount of the principal so prepaid. 2.4 Frustration of Repayment. Immediately prior to entering into any agreement, arrangement, or understanding that restricts the ability of AAMC to repay the Loan or interest when, as, and if due in accordance with the terms of this Note, all principal, all accrued interest then remaining unpaid, and other amounts payable in connection with this Note shall become automatically immediately due and payable in cash. 3.

CHRISTIANSTED, U.S. Virgin Islands—(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 16, 2024-- Altisource Asset Management Corporation (“AAMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: AAMC) announces that it has settled litigation with Luxor Capital Group, LP and related entities (collectively “Luxor”) in respect of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”), as well as separate litigation with former AAMC director Nathanel Redleaf.
Settlement Highlights
•Luxor surrenders all 144,212 of its Preferred Shares, thereby extinguishing all rights under the related Securities Purchase Agreement and Certificate of Designations.
•The Company provides the following consideration to Luxor:
◦A $1,000,000 cash payment now, plus
◦Three Promissory Notes in the following amounts and durations:
▪$2,000,000 due in three years;
▪$3,000,000 due in five years; and
▪$6,000,000 due in eight years
Each Note bears annual interest at either 7.5% on a cash basis or 10% paid-in-kind (“PIK”) basis, at the election of AAMC. The Company shall refrain from making common stock repurchases or issuing dividends at any time the PIK option is in effect and is subject to certain other covenants.
◦AAMC shall also pay Luxor 50% of any proceeds received in respect of the Company’s damage claims in litigation brought by Erbey Holding Corporation pending in USVI Superior Court with case number SX-2018-CV-146, up to a cumulative payout cap of $50,000,000.
•The Parties agree to dismissals of their litigation with prejudice and exchange mutual releases of all claims with no admission by any Party of liability, violation of law or wrongdoing.
