On December 14, 2022, Gregory and Great Ajax agreed to exchange 361,912 shares of Great Ajax held by Gregory for a reduction in the amount of outstanding debt owed under the promissory note based upon the volume-weighted average price of the shares as reported during the ten trading day period preceding the date of the exchange.
