8. ACQUISITION OF ASSETS OF SONGSTAGRAM, INC.

 

On December 11, 2014, Songstagram, Inc. (“Songstagram”) and Rocky Wright (“Wright”) issued secured promissory notes (collectively, the “Promissory Notes”) in connection with advances that the Company made to Songstagram and Wright. The advances were made by the Company in connection with ongoing negotiations for a possible acquisition of Songstagram or its assets by the Company. Pursuant to the Promissory Notes, Songstagram promised to pay the Company the principal sum of $475,000, together with interest at a rate equal to 8% per annum, and Wright promised to pay the Company the principal sum of $386,435, together with interest at a rate equal to 8% per annum. All unpaid principal, which totaled an aggregate of $861,435, together with any then unpaid and accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Promissory Notes, were to be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the Company’s demand for payment; or (ii) when, upon or after the occurrence of an event of default, the Company declared such amounts due and payable or such amounts were made automatically due and payable under the terms of the Promissory Notes. During any period in which an event of default had occurred and was continuing, Songstagram and Wright, as applicable, were to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance at a rate of 13% per annum. The full amounts due under the Promissory Notes were secured by all of Songstagram’s assets and all of Wright’s assets related to Songstagram, as applicable, in accordance with security agreements dated December 11, 2014, as described below.

 

In connection with the Promissory Notes, the Company entered into security agreements (collectively, the “Security Agreements”) with each of Songstagram and Wright dated December 11, 2014. Pursuant to the Security Agreements, Songstagram and Wright, as applicable, agreed to, among other things; (i) pay all secured obligations when due; (ii) upon or following the occurrence of an event of default, pay all of the Company’s costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Company in the perfection, preservation, realization, enforcement and exercise of the Company’s rights, powers and remedies under the Security Agreements; and (iii) execute and deliver such documents as the Company deems necessary to create, perfect and continue the security interests.

 

Effective January 20, 2015, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with Songstagram and Wright, pursuant to which the Company acquired from Wright all assets and intellectual property that Wright owned related to, or used in connection with: (i) the business of Songstagram, (ii) the assets owned and/or used by Songstagram, (iii) the Songstagram software application, (iv) the business and assets of Qubeey Inc. (“Qubeey”), and (v) all software applications of Qubeey, in consideration of the forgiveness of all principal and interest owing by Mr. Wright to the Company under the promissory note issued by Wright to the Company on December 11, 2014. In connection with the Acquisition Agreement, the Company also paid an additional $43,900 to Wright in January 2015.

 

In connection with the Acquisition Agreement and the Company’s prior demand for the repayment of all monies outstanding under the Promissory Note issued by Songstagram to the Company on December 11, 2014, as Songstagram was unable to repay such monies, Songstagram consented to the enforcement of the security granted under the Security Agreement with Songstagram by way of a strict foreclosure. In accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, and as further provided for in a surrender of collateral, consent to strict foreclosure and release agreement dated January 20, 2015 (the “Surrender of Collateral, Consent to Strict Foreclosure and Release Agreement”) between the Company and Songstagram, Songstagram agreed to turn over all collateral pledged under the Security Agreement and consented to the Company retaining such collateral in satisfaction of the indebtedness due under the Promissory Note issued by Songstagram to the Company.

 

Effective March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a settlement and release agreement with Songstagram and Jeff Franklin, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay $10,000 and issue 500,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Franklin in full settlement and release of a claim he had on certain assets the Company acquired from Songstagram and in consideration for the transfer to us of a secured lien he held on assets of Qubeey. The shares of common stock issued to Mr. Franklin were valued at $250,000 and were included as part of the acquisition price of Songstagram.

 

Effective March 5, 2015, the Company entered into a settlement and release agreement with Songstagram and Art Malone Jr., pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue 320,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Malone in full settlement and release of a claim he had on certain assets the Company acquired from Songstagram. The shares of common stock issued to Mr. Malone were valued at $160,000 and were included as part of the acquisition price of Songstagram. The 320,000 shares of common stock were issued to Mr. Malone on April 29, 2015.

 

In July 2015, the Company agreed to issue an aggregate of 240,000 shares to two individuals pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement as payment for claims they had on certain assets acquired from Songstagram. The shares of common stock were valued at $120,000 and were included as part of the acquisition price of Songstagram. The shares of common stock have not been issued, although the Company expects them to be in the future.

 

As a result, the total consideration paid by the Company for the acquisition of Songstagram amounted to $1,435,335. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets were based on valuations using the income approach. 

 

The preliminary purchase price allocation was allocated as follows:

 

Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, at fair value      
       
Intangible assets   $ 1,435,335  
    $ 1,435,335  

 

The intangible assets acquired represented software applications which have an estimated useful life of 3 years. Amortization expense for intangible assets amounted to $331,008 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

At September 30, 2015, the Company made an analysis of this asset and determined there were no reliable predictors of future cash flows to support the value recorded for this asset. Accordingly, the Company concluded that impairment of this asset was appropriate and recorded an impairment charge of $1,104,327, which represented the book value of the intangible assets at the time.

 

The amount of Songstagram’s revenue and earnings included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015, and the revenue and earnings of the combined entity had the acquisition date been January 1, 2014 are as follows. The pro forma information includes the effects of the amortization and impairment of intangibles arising from the transaction. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had the transactions been effected on the assumed dates.
