On October 12, 2020 Terra Tech Corp.

In addition, on October 12, 2020, the Company and Mr. Nahass entered into a Forfeiture Agreement (the “Forfeiture Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Nahass agreed to forfeit and cancel, for no consideration, an aggregate of 3,654,030 shares of Terra Tech common stock.

 

On October 12, 2020 the Company entered into a Confidential Separation Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with Matthew Morgan, formerly the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and the Matthew Lee Morgan Trust (the “Trust”). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Morgan will forfeit and cancel, for no consideration, an aggregate of 14,616,118 shares of Terra Tech common stock, representing all of the Company’s common stock owned by Mr. Morgan. The Trust granted the Company a credit of $250,000 toward a promissory note (the “Note”) issued by the Company to the Trust; provided the Company pays the remaining $250,000 principal balance on the Note by its maturity date of December 30, 2020. Mr. Morgan and the Company each agreed to be responsible for 50% of the settlement costs of a lawsuit brought by two former employees of a subsidiary of the Company against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and Mr. Morgan. The Separation Agreement also contains certain indemnification obligations by the Company and Mr. Morgan as more fully set forth therein.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment, Forfeiture Agreement, and Separation Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.

Mr. Nahass has served as a Director since January 26, 2012, and as the Company’s Secretary and Treasurer since July 20, 2015, and as the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer since November 6, 2017.

 

On October 12, 2020, Mr. Morgan notified the Board of Directors of the Company that he has resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and director, effective immediately.

WHEREAS, Terra Tech is the Borrower, and the Trust is the Lender, under that certain Secured Promissory Note in the face amount of $500,000, dated December 30, 2019, payable from Terra Tech to the Trust in accord with the terms thereof, on the Maturity Date of December 30, 2020, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (the “Note”).

WHEREAS, both Morgan and Terra Tech intend as complete and immediate a separation of their affairs as possible, and for a modification and reduction of Terra Tech’s obligations to the Trust under the terms of the Note and Security Agreement, through an expiring credit, and therefore agree that the Parties shall separate from one another pursuant to and on the terms and conditions and specifications set forth in this Agreement, and modify the obligations set forth in the Note and Security Agreement as more fully specified herein below.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, agreements, representations, and warranties contained in this Agreement, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which is hereby mutually acknowledged by the Parties, and for valid and binding consideration, the Parties hereby memorialize their agreements as follows:

 

 
1

 

 

AGREEMENT

 

1. No Admission of Liability. The Parties mutually acknowledge and agree that the settlement, the delivery of this Agreement, and the consideration provided for in this Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed as any form of admission of liability by any Party hereto, except as otherwise expressly specified herein. This Agreement represents, among other things, the settlement of disputed and other claims and the Parties expressly deny all liability to one another except as expressly provided for in this Agreement, which shall govern their separation and any relationship among them going forward from the Effective Date.

 

2. Consideration. The consideration exchanged by and among the Parties in connection with this Agreement includes the following:

 

a. Morgan’s Forfeiture of Shares of Stock in Terra Tech. Morgan hereby irrevocably forfeits 14,616,118 shares of common stock of Terra Tech (the “Common Stock”) issued to him pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Shares”), representing all of the shares of Common Stock issued to Morgan pursuant to the Merger Agreement. As of the Effective Date, the Shares shall be cancelled and retired on the books and records of Terra Tech and shall be of no further force or effect, and Morgan agrees that no payment by Terra Tech shall be made with respect thereto.

In connection with the foregoing forfeiture and cancellation of the Shares, Morgan shall deliver to Terra Tech and/or its representatives, a duly executed stock power in a form acceptable to Terra Tech, to the extent needed to separately memorialize the foregoing.

 

b. Modification reducing amount payable from Terra Tech to the Trust under the Note, and modification of Security Agreement. The terms of the Note and Security Agreement are re-affirmed by the Parties hereto, subject however to the following:

For the avoidance of doubt, no interest shall be due on the Note if payment is made as set forth in this paragraph.

 

B. If the $250,000 Accommodation Sum has not been paid as specified above by the Credit Expiry Time, then the Credit shall permanently and irrevocably expire, and the Note shall be enforceable in accord with its terms as stated.

 

C. In the event Terra Tech closes an Asset Sale or a Funding Event (as defined below) prior to December 30, 2020, Terra Tech shall pay the Accommodation Sum in good funds by wire transfer or other means to an account designated by the Trust within five (5) business days following such closing.

 

Asset Sale” shall mean any event whereby Terra Tech sells assets that provides gross proceeds of at least $10,000,000.

 

Funding Event” shall mean any event whereby Terra Tech raises equity or debt capital that provides gross proceeds of at least $10,000,000.

 

ii. The Trust agrees that the Security Agreement shall be deemed released if, as and when the indebtedness which it secures is paid in full, including through the proper use and application by Terra Tech of the expiring Credit referenced herein, above.

 

c. Settlement of Litigation. Morgan and Terra Tech shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of the payments required to be made pursuant to that certain Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (“Settlement Agreement”) among Scott Billups and Hisako Billups, on the one hand, and Staywell Laboratories, Inc.

With respect to any recovery or indemnification sought by an Indemnified Person from the Responsible Party, if the Responsible Party does not notify the Indemnified Person within ten (10) business days from its receipt of the Claim Notice that the Responsible Party disputes such Claim (“Dispute Notice”), the Responsible Party shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed with such Claim. If the Responsible Party has disputed a Claim for indemnification, the Responsible Party and the Indemnified Person shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution to such dispute.

B. If an action, demand, suit, claim or proceeding by a third party (“Third-Party Claim”) is made against any Indemnified Person, and if such Indemnified Person intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Responsible Party of such Third-Party Claim; provided that the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Responsible Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Responsible Party is materially prejudiced thereby. Other than in connection with a Third-Party Claim by a federal, national, state, foreign, provincial, local or other government or any governmental, regulatory, administrative or self-regulatory authority, agency, bureau, board, commission, court, judicial or arbitral body, department, political subdivision, tribunal or other instrumentality thereof, the Responsible Party shall have the right to assume, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person at the expense of the Responsible Party, of the settlement or defense thereof, by sending notice thereof to the Indemnified Person, which notice shall state that the Responsible Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Person for the entirety of all Expenses the Indemnified Person may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third-Party Claim, and the Indemnified Person shall cooperate with it in connection therewith; provided that the Responsible Party shall permit the Indemnified Person to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Person; provided, further, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by such Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding an election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate co-counsel and to participate in the defense as counsel of record, if applicable, in such action, demand, suit, claim or proceeding (and the Parties shall jointly control the defense), and the Responsible Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) there exists any actual or potential conflict of interest between the Indemnified Person and the Responsible Party in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim that would make representation by the same counsel or the counsel selected by the Responsible Party inappropriate, (ii) such Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Person, (iii) such Third-Party Claim is related to or otherwise arises in connection with any criminal or regulatory enforcement action, demand, suit, claim or proceeding, or (iv) the resolution of the Third-Party Claim could materially affect the operations or business of the Morgan Indemnified Persons.

C. So long as the Responsible Party is reasonably contesting any such Third-Party Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Person shall not pay or settle any Third-Party Claim without the prior consent of the Responsible Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Responsible Party does not notify the Indemnified Person within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Indemnified Person’s notice of a Third-Party Claim of indemnity hereunder that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the Third-Party Claim but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefor pursuant to this Agreement. The Responsible Party shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Person, enter into any settlement that (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the person or persons asserting such Third-Party Claim to all Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim or consent to entry of any judgment, (ii) does not involve only the payment of money damages, (iii) imposes an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Person or (iv) includes any admission of wrongdoing or misconduct by the Indemnified Person.

 

D. Any Indemnified Person and Responsible Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the other Party and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of any Third-Party Claim and any appeal arising therefrom and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include reasonable access during normal business hours afforded to each Party and its agents and representatives to, and reasonable retention by each Party of, records and information which have been identified by the other Party as being reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and making employees and attorneys available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in any notifications to insurers.

vi. Binding Effect. A Responsible Party’s indemnity obligations shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of Terra Tech), assigns, spouses, heirs, and personal and legal representatives.Terra Tech shall use its reasonable efforts to cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of Terra Tech, by written agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Morgan, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Terra Tech would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to an Indemnified Person for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified capacity pertaining to an Indemnifiable Event even though he, she or it may have ceased to serve in such capacity at the time of any Indemnifiable Event.

 

vii. Payment Obligations. It shall not be a basis to delay or fail to make an indemnity payment for a Responsible Party to contend that an Indemnified Person has not obtained a preliminary or final ruling in their favor with respect to any claim made against the Indemnified Person for which the Indemnified Person seeks indemnity, or that further approval by the Responsible Party is required.

EXHIBIT 99.1

 

Terra Tech Corp. Appoints Michael Nahass as Chief Executive Officer

 

IRVINE, CA – October 13, 2020 – Terra Tech Corp. (OTCQX: TRTC) (“Terra Tech” or the “Company”) today announced it has appointed Mr. Michael Nahass as Chief Executive Officer.

 

Mr. Nahass currently serves as Terra Tech’s President, Chief Operating Officer, Secretary and Treasurer as well as a Director, and has been working at Terra Tech since its inception. Mr. Nahass was instrumental in the start-up operations of Terra Tech and he continues to manage the daily activities of Terra Tech. He takes over the position from Matthew Morgan, who has been CEO since February 2020 as he is stepping down to pursue other interests.

 

Derek Peterson, Chairman of the Board of Directors, commented, “On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank Matt for his insight and leadership at Terra Tech throughout 2020. He has navigated the Company through unprecedented times, and we wish him well for the future. As the co-founder and CEO of OneQor Technologies, Inc., Matt was brought into Terra Tech to guide our expansion strategy in the CBD market. With the events of the past six months, including the COVID-19 pandemic which forced many retailers to delay purchase orders in the CBD market, it has become evident to both Matt and the Board that Terra Tech must focus on growing its THC business in order to maximize near-term revenues.”

 

Mike Nahass commented, “Terra Tech has excellent assets in California and Nevada that have the potential to drive revenue growth in the THC market, including our Hegenberger cultivation facility which is under construction and our Blum retail dispensary in Oakland. The impact of COVID on the CBD industry has led us to streamline and intensify our focus on this core cannabis business and I look forward to sharing more details of our THC expansion strategy on our next quarterly call which is expected to be in mid-November.”

 

Matthew Morgan commented, “Terra Tech and its Blum and IVXX brands are some of the most long-standing and recognizable names in the California cannabis market. At this juncture in the Company’s evolution and given the volatile market dynamics at play, it makes sense for the Company to leverage this well-established niche they have in the market to build shareholder value. On a personal note, I am stepping down to pursue my other interests.”

 

Mr. Morgan was issued 14,616,118 shares of Terra Tech common stock in February 2020, in connection with the merger of OneQor with a subsidiary of Terra Tech. Mr. Morgan is voluntarily returning the entirety of his shares in Terra Tech, effective the date hereof, at no cost to the Company.
