On November 12, 2024, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York issued a temporary restraining order enjoining VStock Transfer from transferring the ordinary shares previously issued by Genius Group Limited (the “Company”) to LZGI as part of the previously disclosed asset acquisition. This temporary restraining order emanates from the Petition for a Preliminary Injunction in Aid of Arbitration and a Temporary Restraining Order filed by the Company to enjoin the Company’s transfer agent, VStock, from reissuing shares without restrictive legend or otherwise preventing VStock from issuing any shares related to the transaction, specifically on the 7.4 million shares of the Company currently held by VStock in LZGI’s name.

 

The Company will continue to take the appropriate actions related to the LZGI transaction via current arbitration and independent investigation to preserve the Company’s rights and protect shareholder value.
