Analytical Frame

Settlement resolution of Virginia judgment enforcement through Texas receivership proceedings

Analytical Summary

This joint court filing documents the settlement of a multi-state judgment enforcement action in Harris County, Texas. Atlantic Wave Holdings and Secure Community obtained a $1.57 million Virginia judgment against Cyberlux Corporation and Mark D. Schmidt in June 2023, which led to Texas receivership proceedings in 2024-2025. After partial payments through Virginia proceedings ($1.14 million in November 2025), the parties reached a comprehensive settlement distributing the $3.08 million held by the Texas receiver. The agreement allocates $873,849 to plaintiffs for Texas enforcement costs and attorneys' fees, $218,462 to the receiver (25% fee), and returns $1.99 million to Legalist SPV III LP. Upon disbursement, the underlying judgment is marked satisfied and the receivership terminated, though disputes in two Virginia cases remain unresolved.

Key Points

Virginia court entered $1,572,500 judgment against Cyberlux Corporation and Mark D. Schmidt in June 2023
Texas receivership appointed in May 2025 to enforce judgment, collected $3,083,639.75
Virginia court disbursed $1,140,004.66 in November 2025 for principal and Virginia legal fees
Settlement stipulates $873,849.02 in reasonable Texas enforcement attorneys' fees under Section 31.002(e)
Receiver entitled to $218,462.30 (25% of recovery) per receivership order terms
Remaining $1,991,328.43 to be returned to Legalist SPV III LP (defendant's funder)
Settlement resolves Texas action but not pending Virginia Stock Case or Interpleader Action

PLAINTIFFS' AND DEFENDANTS' JOINT NOTICE OF SETTLEMENT AND JOINT MOTION FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS, FOR SATISFACTION OF JUDGMENT, AND TO DISSOLVE RECEIVERSHIP

COME NOW, Plaintiffs Atlantic Wave Holdings, LLC, and Secure Community, LLC ("Plaintiffs") and Cyberlux Corporation and Mark D. Schmidt ("Defendants") :selected: (collectively, the "Parties"), and file this Joint Notice of Settlement and Joint Motion for Release of Funds, for Satisfaction of Judgment, and to Dissolve Receivership. In support thereof, the Parties state:

I. INTRODUCTION

On June 23, 2023, a Virginia court presiding over Case No. CL22-3882-4, Atlantic Wave Holdings, LLC and Secure Community, LLC v. Cyberlux Corporation and Mark D. Schmidt, in the Circuit Court of the City of Richmond, State of Virginia, entered a judgment ("Underlying Judgment") in favor of Plaintiffs and against Defendants, in the principal sum of $1,572,500.00.

Following entry of the Underlying Judgment, Defendants made certain partial payments towards the balance due on the Underlying Judgment.

On July 30, 2024, Plaintiffs filed a Petition to Enforce the Underlying Judgment in this Court, initiating this enforcement and collection action.

On May 22, 2025, pursuant to Section 31.002(b)(3) of the Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code, this Court appointed Robert W. Berleth ("Receiver") "to take possession of [Cyberlux] property, sell it, and pay the proceeds to [Plaintiffs] to the extent required to satisfy the judgment." The Receivership Order entitled Plaintiffs "to collect post-judgment attorneys' fees under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 31.002(e)."

On November 14, 2025, a Virginia court presiding over Case No. CL-2025- 3413, Atlantic Wave Holdings, LLC and Secure Community, LLC v. Cyberlux Corporation, in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, State of Virginia, entered a final order ("Final Order") which, among other things, ordered the clerk of that court to disburse (1) $952,601.71, representing the principal balance owed on the Underlying Judgment; and (2) $187,399.95, representing Plaintiffs' reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the Virginia state court proceedings only. On November 18, 2025, $1,140,004.66 was disbursed to Plaintiffs pursuant to the Final Order. The Final Order did not determine the reasonable post-judgment attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Plaintiffs in the enforcement and collection of the Underlying Judgment in Texas.

On January 6, 2026, Plaintiffs filed their updated Second Amended Motion for Distribution of Funds in this action seeking recovery of $873,849.02, representing the updated reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Plaintiffs in the enforcement and collection of the Underlying Judgment in Texas. Plaintiffs therein requested that the $873,849.02 be paid from the $3,083,639.75 in non-exempt funds currently held by Receiver under the Receivership Order.

II. ARGUMENT

This joint motion resolves all remaining disputes between Plaintiffs and Defendants in this Texas enforcement action. This joint motion does not resolve the Parties' disputes

in two pending Virginia actions: (1) Case No. CL24-3910, Atlantic Wave Holdings, LLC and Secure Community, LLC v. Cyberlux Corporation and Mark D. Schmidt, pending in the Circuit Court of the City of Richmond, State of Virginia ("Stock Case"); and (2) Case No. 3:25-cv-00483, HII Mission Technologies Corp. v. Cyberlux Corp., et al., pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Richmond Division, ("Interpleader Action").

Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 31.002(e), Plaintiffs, as the judgment-creditors, are "entitled to recover reasonable costs, including attorney's fees" for their efforts to obtain turnover relief in this Texas enforcement action. The Parties stipulate that Plaintiffs' reasonable costs and attorneys' fees recoverable under Section 31.002(e) are $873,849.02.1

The Receivership Order provides that "Receiver's fees and expenses are considered costs of court" and the fee is "equal to 25% of ... all recoveries and credits against the [Underlying Judgment]." The Parties stipulate that Receiver's fees and expenses are $218,462.30-that is, 25% of the $873,849.02 recovery against the Underlying Judgment to Plaintiffs.

The Parties therefore respectfully ask that this Court: (1) order Receiver to disburse $873,849.02 to Plaintiffs within two business days of entry of this Court's order; (2) permit Receiver to retain $218,462.30, representing Receiver's recoverable fees and expenses; and (3) release $1,991,328.43 to Legalist SPV III, LP within two business days of entry of the Court's order. Furthermore, the Parties ask the Court to order Receiver to provide notice

Defendants waive and forever relinquish any right for reconsideration, appeal, or bankruptcy relief on the disbursement of $873,849.02 in attorneys' fees and costs to Plaintiffs, as allowed to the fullest extent by law.

Docusign EnveCase 5:25-309-004833JACA-Document 175-19 Filed 04/15/26 Page 5 of 10 PageID# 2854

and documentation to the Parties and the Court confirming the funds were disbursed and deposited as ordered.

Upon Plaintiffs' receipt of the $873,849.02 disbursement, the Parties request that the Court mark the Underlying Judgment satisfied and close this Texas enforcement action initiated by Plaintiffs. Upon satisfaction of the Underlying Judgment, the Parties agree to promptly dismiss all Texas actions involving Plaintiffs and Defendants.

Upon satisfaction of the Underlying Judgment (by the foregoing requested disbursement), the Parties request that the Receivership Order be terminated and the receivership closed.

III. CONCLUSION

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Parties respectfully pray that the Court order disbursement of funds as requested; mark the Underlying Judgment satisfied, discharge the Receiver, terminate the receivership, and close this action.

Dated: February 26, 2026.
