Trust Stamp (Euronext Growth: AIID ID), announces that it has filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
On July 15, 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”) to amend the terms of the Company’s modified contract with ICE, initially awarded to the Company on September 23, 2021 and modified on March 27, 2022 (the “ICE Contract”, originally filed as Exhibit 6.15 to the Company’s offering statement on Form 1-A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 22, 2021).
As previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 21, 2022, on April 15, 2022, the Company and ICE entered into amendment agreement (the “First Amendment”) to the ICE Contract which had the effect of implementing an up to 90 day cessation of performance of the Company’s and ICE’s obligations under the ICE Contract previously agreed to be performed between March 27, 2022 and September 26, 2022.
The Second Amendment had the effect of implementing an additional up to 60 day cessation of performance of the Company’s and ICE’s obligations under the ICE Contract previously agreed to be performed between March 27, 2022 and September 26, 2022.
The First Amendment was entered into due to a recent change in legislation (enacted through The Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2022) which requires a Congressional notification in order for ICE to award a contract or subcontract to a particular entity for any pilot or demonstration program that uses more than 5 full-time equivalents or costs in excess of $1,000,000. This change in legislation was retroactively applied to the March 27, 2022 modification to the ICE Contract. The up to 90 day cessation of the ICE Contract provided by the First Amendment was intended to allow ICE ample time to obtain a Congressional notification for the modification of the ICE Contract. However, as of July 15, 2022 (the end of the 90 day cessation period), ICE had not yet been able to obtain such a Congressional notification.
The Second Amendment is intended to provide ICE additional time to obtain such a Congressional notification, so that the Company can continue to provide services to ICE under the ICE Contract.
