In December 2018, the Company signed a co-packing agreement with California Custom Beverage, LLC’s (“CCB”), an entity owned by a former related party, pursuant to which CCB agreed to produce certain products for the Company for agreed fees. The co-packing agreement, as amended, includes certain provisions for product inputs, shrinkage, and quality assurance. Also beginning in 2019, CCB agreed to pay the Company a 5% royalty through 2021 on certain private label sales made by CCB.

In January 2024, CCB filed an arbitration demand alleging claims against the Company for various disputed amounts outstanding. Also in January 2024, the Company filed an arbitration demand alleging claims against CCB for various disputed amounts outstanding. The two cases were consolidated, and the arbitration process is expected to continue pending final judgment. The Company has determined that the probability of realizing any loss on the demand from CCB is remote and therefore has not recorded any additional accruals related to the demand.
