Quad
M Solutions, Inc., an Idaho corporation, (the “Company” or “Registrant”), a public holding company (OTC: MMMM),
is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to report that on February 14, 2023, the Registrant’s wholly owned subsidiary, NuAxess
2, Inc, (“NuAxess” or “Plaintiff”), filed a complaint (the “Complaint”) in the United States District
Court, Eastern District of New York, against Acrisure LLC d/b/a Connor Group Insurance Agency, a limited liability company formed under
the laws of the State of Michigan, authorized to do business in New York, with its domestic principal place of business in Lake Success,
New York (“Acrisure” or “Defendant”). A copy of the Complaint is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K
As
set forth more fully in the Complaint, Plaintiff and Defendant entered into a contract titled “Referral Agreement” dated
May 3, 2021 (the “Agreement”), a copy of which was filed with the United States District Court as Exhibit 1 to the Complaint.
Pursuant to the Agreement, Plaintiff provided comprehensive programs through Plaintiff’s vendors to customers that Defendant referred
to Plaintiff and further required Defendant to deliver to Plaintiff accurate information contained in a Special Risk Questionnaire (“SRQ”),
so that the health status of potential employees can be known, which circumstance bears directly on (a) the cost of staffing fees, and
(b) whether an employee or group will be accepted by Plaintiff as employees in the first instance.
Plaintiff
discovered that Defendant intentionally failed to disclose accurate information in the SRQs, thereby materially misleading Plaintiff,
causing Plaintiff to accept the referral groups and at artificially lower rates. Defendant knew that Plaintiff’s criteria for customer
groups required limited or minimal special risk factors and, on numerous occasions, Defendant expressed that a customer group was either
a new group of applicants without any prior claim history or known health concerns or a very healthy group. Nevertheless, Defendant repeatedly
referred customers to Plaintiff who had prior coverage and health problems. Plaintiff has learned that Defendant instructed such potential
customers to provide information in the SQRs stating falsely that such customers did not have any health conditions or prior health conditions
and Defendant’s agents and representatives made material misrepresentations related to customers’ health risk factors which
Defendant and its agents and employees knew would weigh heavily in determining whether and at what price Plaintiff agreed to staff employees
referred by Defendant. Defendant is and was also aware that Plaintiff, as a self-funded, self-insured staffing company, was dependent
and materially relied upon accurate information and that NuAxess program had no place for “Special Risk” employees.
Accordingly,
the Agreement contains a specific provision (4-b) anticipating and highlighting this understanding between the parties, whereby Defendant
agreed to provide Plaintiff with details of any fact that could bear on the issue of employee risk:
Referrer
agrees to promptly report, with full details, to NuAxess 2 any fact, occurrence, or incident that may result in an increased risk of
loss to NuAxess 2 or any insurer with which insurance was placed under this Agreement. Without limitation, Referrer agrees to report
any subsequent information regarding such claim or loss to NuAxess 2 and to cooperate with adjusters and attorneys appointed by NuAxess
2 to investigate, adjust, or defend any claim or loss or to collect any unpaid premiums.
Plaintiff,
in or about the 4th quarter of 2022, first became aware that Defendant, while acting as a referral agent for Plaintiff, through
its agents and representatives, deliberately misrepresented the qualifications of prospective clients of Plaintiff’s staffing business,
and further tortiously instructed prospective clients being referred to Plaintiff to misrepresent material qualifications in the SRQs,
in order to become Plaintiff’s “covered” employees. As a consequence of Defendant’s material breach of the Agreement,
these referred companies and employees began submitting substantial health claims, though each had provided clean SRQs, indicating no
prior serious disqualifying ailments, among their “referred” employees. Plaintiff, in or about the 4th quarter
of 2022, discovered that many of the companies that Defendant referred as qualified employee/customers were. In fact, engaged in an elaborate
scheme to provide Plaintiff with widespread misrepresentations and, as a result, Plaintiff first learned that many referred companies
(a) submitted false SRQs, omitting facts of existing at-risk (seriously ill) employees, (b) added at-risk employees after an SRQ submission,
and (c) included outside individuals to NuAxess who were not full-time employees of the companies.
Plaintiff
has alleged in the Complaint that it has been damaged in an amount to be determined at trial, but not less than $100,000,000.00.
In
response to the Company and NuAxess materially adverse business experience, all as set forth in the Complaint, effective January 1, 2023,
NuAxess: (i) terminated its Agreement with Defendant; (ii) terminated its previous NuAxess Health Plan; (iii) commenced implementation
of a new health plan with a new third-party administrator (“TPA”) which it expects will materially lower it reinsurance costs
and fees; and (iv) commenced actions to collect prior uncollected premium receipts from Defendant’s referred customers.
