Hajjar and sovereign capital holdings, LLC should pay the repurchase price and corresponding interest to the group. However, due to the epidemic and other reasons, it is difficult to verify the current operation of SMS and John H. Hajjar’s personal assets, and the implementation of the ruling result is uncertain.
