# Forward Industries gets Brera Holdings demand letter alleging undisclosed Section 13(d) group; company rejects claim

## Summary
- Brera Holdings' counsel accused Forward of forming an undisclosed group with Viktor Fischer, RockawayX, and RBCH to influence SLMT control.
- The allegation connects Forward's June 1 unsolicited acquisition proposal to RockawayX's concurrent board-removal campaign.
- Forward responded on June 15, 2026, calling the contentions meritless and attaching both the letter and its response as exhibits.
- Brera separately filed a Delaware Superior Court fraud lawsuit against RockawayX and Fischer over a failed acquisition deal.
- Brera demands disclosure, corrective Schedule 13D filings, and preservation of documents; reserves rights to seek injunctive relief.
