 2023, the Derivative Lead Plaintiffs designated an operative complaint in the Consolidated Paul Derivative Action. The operative complaint named Mr. Plank, certain other current and former members of the Company's Board of Directors, and certain other current and former Company executives as defendants, and named the Company as a nominal defendant. It asserted allegations challenging (i) the Company's disclosures related to growth and consumer demand for certain of the Company's products; (ii) the Company's practice of shifting sales between quarterly periods supposedly to appear healthier and its purported failure to disclose that practice; (iii) the Company's internal controls with respect to revenue recognition and inventory management; and (iv) the Company's supposed failure to timely disclose investigations by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice. The operative complaint asserted breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment claims against the defendants and asserted a contribution claim against certain defendants. The operative complaint sought damages on behalf of the Company and also sought certain corporate governance related actions.The Company and the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the operative complaint on June 23, 2023. The District Court granted that motion on September 27, 2023, dismissing the Consolidated Paul Derivative Action without prejudice, due to lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Following that decision, Viskovich, one of the Derivative Lead Plaintiffs, filed the above-referenced Viskovich Action in State Court.The other Derivative Lead Plaintiff, Paul, filed a motion in the District Court seeking reconsideration of the dismissal decision or leave to amend the operative complaint. On January 9, 2024, the District Court entered an order denying Paul's motion and ordering that the Consolidated Paul Derivative Action remained dismissed without prejudice.In February 2024, Paul filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (the "Fourth Circuit") from the decisions by the District Court on September 27, 2023 and January 9, 2024. Briefing on the appeal began on April 24, 2024 and was completed as of July 22, 2024. No decision has been issued in the appeal, which remains pending before the Fourth Circuit. As described above, on January 18, 2025, the parties in the Derivative Actions entered into the binding Term Sheet, which contains the material terms of a settlement resolving those cases. A summary of the Term Sheet and the next steps with respect to the proposed settlement
