GLOBANT S.A.
FORM 6-K
In December 2015, Globant S.A. (the “Company”) received a civil investigative demand from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Texas (the “US”) for the production of records in connection with an investigation relating to alleged non-compliance with laws governing the application for and use of B visas during the period from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2015 (the “Relevant Period”).
In order to avoid the inconvenience and expense of litigation, on March 15, 2017, the Company settled this matter by entering into a Settlement Agreement with the US (the “Settlement Agreement”) where the Company denies the US’s allegations and all liability in connection with the conduct alleged by the US to have involved 21 employees from June 2010 through December 2012. Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company has agreed, among other things, to pay an amount equal to $1.0 million. Of that amount, $500,000 is attributable to penalties connected to the above-described conduct and $500,000 is attributable to reimbursement of the US’s investigative costs. In return, the US has agreed, among other things, to release the Company and/or its affiliates from any civil or administrative monetary claim that the US has for the above-described conduct during the Relevant Period with respect to the foreign nationals referenced in the Settlement Agreement, subject to customary exceptions.
