AutoLife Acquisition Corp. engaged in transactions that left it owing secured creditors about $5.5 million due in two months. It contracted with Kann Capital, Ltd. to seek $9 million in financing and "advise and assist AutoLife in devising and executing a program to secure" the financing. The agreement had an arbitration clause for any controversy arising out the agreement or breach, termination, interpretation, or validity of it.
