Genius Group Sues Alto Opportunity Master Fund, SPC, Ayrton Capital, LLC and Waqas Khatri in New York Federal Court
01 Março 2023 - 9:00AM
Genius Group Limited (NYSE American: GNS) (“Genius Group” or the
“Company”), a leading entrepreneur edtech and education group,
announced that on February 27, 2023, the company filed a complaint
in the United States District Court Southern District
of New York, Case Number 1:23-cv-01639 against Alto
Opportunity Master Fund, SPC – Segregated Master Portfolio B,
Ayrton Capital, LLC and Waqas Khatri (“The Parties”) seeking
an Order that rescinds and declares a financing agreement with
Ayrton Capital to be null and void. This lawsuit was filed by
Warshaw Burstein LLP of New York and Christian Levine Law Group LLC
of Texas, two firms that possess extensive experience and achieved
considerable success in litigating stock manipulation cases.
The suit challenges multiple aspects of the
financing agreement including Ayrton’s claim that in exchange for
lending $18 million dollars to Genius, it can convert this loan
into 49 million ordinary shares of the company worth around $200
million dollars. This suit follows multiple claims that the SEC has
commenced against toxic lenders who are unregistered brokers and
offer “death-spiral” financings to undercapitalized small and
mid-cap companies.
Genius Group’s CEO, Roger Hamilton said that
“the company is committed to protecting the integrity of its
operations and the value of its shareholders equity by
investigating and prosecuting toxic lenders, and market
manipulators who violate federal securities laws.”
