Executive Arbitration
Former Chief Executive Officer, Indroneel Chatterjee
On December 29, 2022, the arbitrator entered a final order which granted an additional award of fees and costs to the Company in the amount of over $1 million, bringing the Company's total judgment against Mr. Chatterjee to approximately $1.6 million. In the arbitrator’s final award, he also included the amounts he had previously awarded to the Company in his October 19, 2022 order, which were $400,000 plus interest at the U.S. Virgin Islands’ 9% statutory rate for contractual claims (since Mr. Chatterjee’s termination on April 16, 2021) and approximately $140,000 as reimbursement to the Company for all expenses the Company incurred directly and solely as a result of Mr. Chatterjee’s misconduct in the arbitration.
The Company intends to enforce the judgment against Mr. Chatterjee.
