5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

On July 20, 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire exclusive commercial software licenses for the “GUST” (Georgia Tech UAV Simulation Tool) autopilot system from Adaptive Flight, Inc. (“AFI”). Through the purchase of the assets of privately held AFI, the Company assumed the transferable licenses from the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, which included flight simulation tools and fault tolerant flight control algorithms. In addition, the Company acquired AFI’s dedicated flight computer and additional related hardware and airframes. The Company paid $100,000 in immediately available funds and $100,000 to be held in escrow. In addition, the Company issued 150,000 shares of unregistered common stock valued at $8.40 per share on the date of agreement, to be held in escrow. 

The Company had a milestone of twelve months from July 20, 2015 to complete a technology Integration Plan, the non-completion of which may result in the return of the purchased assets and termination of the Company’s obligations to release the escrow cash and shares. Additional milestones include exclusive, no-cost and perpetual licenses to all contributing intellectual property included or related to the purchased assets. As such time as all milestones are met, one-half of the escrow shares will be released to AFI. Upon termination of the Escrow Agreement, anticipated to be twelve months from the closing of the asset purchase, if all milestones have been met, the remaining escrowed shares will be released to AFI, but if all milestones have not been met, the escrowed cash and escrowed shares will be released to the Company and the purchased assets will be returned to AFI. According to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, if the escrow share value is less than $1,400,000, the Company must issue an additional number of unregistered shares, not to exceed 50,000 shares. At December 31, 2015, the value of the 150,000 shares was $3.23 per share, or $484,500. The Company recorded $161,500 as an additional liability and expense at December 31, 2015 for the cost of 50,000 shares at $3.23 per share.

On June 3, 2016, the Integration Plan was deemed to be completed. At June 3, 2016, the value of the 150,000 shares was $3.01 per share, or $451,150. The additional liability was reduced to $150,500 for the cost of 50,000 shares at $3.01 per share. The Company recorded the $11,000 reduction in the additional liability through the statement of operations at June 3, 2016. The Company began amortizing the $1,460,000 of purchased assets over a sixty month period on June 3, 2016 in the amount of $24,333 per month. Total amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is $24,333. The Company and AFI instructed the Escrow Agent to disburse the cash and 150,000 shares of stock. The Company issued an additional 50,000 shares valued at $150,500 as described above.

The asset acquisition did not qualify as a business combination under ASC 805-10 and has been accounted for as a regular asset purchase.
