The 27,305,442 shares of the Company’s common stock issued for the $1.45 million in consideration are subject to leak out agreements whereby the shareholders are unable to sell or transfer shares based upon the following:

The Leak-Out provision may be waived by the Company, upon written request by the holder of the common stock, if the Company is trading on either the NYSE American or Nasdaq, and has a rolling 30-day average trading volume of 50,000 shares per day; provided, however, that (i) only up to 5% of the previous days total volume can be sold in one day by a holder; and (ii) the holder can only sell through executing trades “On the Offer.”

The transaction costs associated with the Merger were $65,000 in legal fees paid $40,000 in cash, and 1,190,476 shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $55,952.

Fair Value of Consideration Transferred and Recording of Assets Acquired

The following table summarizes the acquisition date fair value of the consideration paid, identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed including an amount for goodwill:

Common stock, 27,305,442 shares at fair market value	$	1,449,919
8% Unsecured, Convertible promissory note payable to seller		350,000
Total purchase price	$	1,799,919
Tangible assets acquired	$	1,101,604
Liabilities assumed		(294,671	)
Net tangible assets acquired		806,933
Identified Intangible Assets
Customer Relationships	$	600,000
Trademarks		121,000
Non-compete agreements		22,000
Total Intangible Assets		743,000
Goodwill	$	249,986
Total purchase price	$	1,799,919

In determining the number of shares of the common stock issued, the Company considered the value of the stock as defined the Merger Agreement to be the calculated based on the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of a share of the Company’s common stock on the OTC Markets for (i) 180 days prior to the date of the parties’ execution and delivery of the binding term sheet for the Merger or (ii) 180 days prior to the closing date of the Merger, whichever results in a lower VWAP. Based on this calculation, the Company utilized calculation (i) resulting in a conversion price of $.051271831. This conversion price resulted in the issuance of 27,305,442 shares of common stock with a fair value of $1,449,919 on the closing date.

Inventory was assessed at the time of closing as to its fair value, and it was determined that a step-up analysis was necessary in order to evaluate the fair value of the inventory at the time of closing. The step up represents the net profit that would be attained when the inventory is sold. The key assumptions used in this analysis is a gross margin of 38.3% and selling costs of 5.0%, The analysis resulted in a necessary step up of $31,000 at the time of closing.

Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributable to the value of the potential expanded market opportunity with new customers. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
