Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings involving a variety of matters. We do not believe there are any pending legal proceedings that will have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial
position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.
Following the announcement of the Merger Agreement with KushCo, two complaints have been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York: one is captioned Richard Garreffa v. Greenlane Holdings, Inc., Aaron LoCascio, Adam Schoenfeld, Neil Closner, Richard Taney and Jeff Uttz, Case No. 1:21-cv-05512, filed June 23, 2021 and one is captioned Lance K. Callaghan v. Greenlane Holdings, Inc., Aaron LoCascio, Adam Schoenfeld, Neil Closner, Richard Taney and Jeff Uttz, Case No. 1:21-cv-05635, filed June 29, 2021; additionally, one complaint has been filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, captioned Eric Sabatini vs. Greenlane Holdings, Inc., Aaron LoCascio, Adam Schoenfeld, Neil Closner, Richard Taney and Jeff Uttz, Case No. 2:21-cv-06571 (collectively, the “Actions”). The Actions name as defendants Greenlane and each of the members of the Greenlane Board. The Actions allege, among other things, that all defendants violated provisions of the Exchange Act insofar as the registration statement on Form S-4 preliminarily filed by Greenlane on May 28, 2021 allegedly omits material information with respect to the transactions contemplated therein that purportedly renders the preliminary registration statement false and misleading. The complaints seek, among other things, injunctive relief, recissory damages, an award of plaintiffs’ fees and expenses and a trial by jury. The defendants believe the claims asserted in the Actions are without merit and intend to vigorously defend them.
Other Contingencies

We are potentially subject to claims related to various non-income taxes (such as sales, value added, consumption, and similar taxes) from various tax authorities, including in jurisdictions in which we already collect and remit such taxes. If the relevant taxing authorities were successfully to pursue these claims, we could be subject to significant additional tax liabilities.
See "Note 5—Leases" for details of our future minimum lease payments under finance lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities. See "Note 11—Incomes Taxes" for information regarding income tax contingencies.
