12. Related Party Transactions

On April 2, 2013, the Company entered into the "Merger Agreement" with its wholly owned subsidiary, Nuta, North South, the owner or assignee of certain patents, licenses and applications (the “North South Intellectual Property”), and the shareholders of North South (the "North South Shareholders"). Upon closing of the transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement (the "Merger"), North South will merge with and into Nuta with Nuta as the surviving corporation. Nuta will operate as the record owner of the North South Intellectual Property. The closing of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of a fairness opinion that the Merger Consideration (as defined below) is fair to stockholders and the Company from a financial point of view, based on, among other things, the North South Intellectual Property assets, and the approval of the Company’s shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding voting capital stock of the Company as of the record date (July 10, 2013) to issue the Merger Consideration pursuant to NASDAQ listing standards.

 

On August 16, 2013, we had obtained the approval a majority of our shareholders necessary to complete the Merger with North South. Closing of the Merger is subject only to the expiration of the statutory twenty (20) calendar day period, which will expire on September 2, 2013. Upon the closing of the Merger, the existing shareholders of the Company will hold approximately 91.6% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company and the shareholders of North South will hold approximately 8.4% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company (without regard to any conversions, beneficial ownership or conversion limitations contained therein).

 

The transaction will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations, and uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as of the completion of the acquisition of North South, primarily at their respective fair values and added to those of the Company. Financial statements and reported results of operations of the Company issued after completion of the acquisition of North South will reflect these values, but will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of North South.

 

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger, at the closing of the Merger, all issued and outstanding shares of North South’s capital stock will be converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 118,483 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and 1,488,152 shares of the Company’s Series D Convertible Preferred , which is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock on a one-for-ten basis (collectively with the 118,483 shares of Common Stock, the “Merger Consideration”). Each holder of Series D Preferred Stock is entitled to vote on all shareholder matters, equal to the number of shares of Common Stock such shares are convertible into at such time, unless the holder is precluded from affecting the conversion taking into account beneficial ownership limitations and conversion limits as set forth in the Certificate of Designation.

 

At the effective time of the Merger, from the Merger Consideration, 150,000 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock (the “Escrow Shares”) shall be delivered to an escrow agent and shall be held pursuant to an escrow agreement to secure the Company from certain claims that may arise with respect to the representations, warranties, covenants or indemnification obligations of the North South Shareholders for a period of twelve (12) months following the closing of the Merger. The Escrow Shares are the sole remedy for indemnifiable losses payable under the Merger Agreement.

 

At the effective time of the Merger, 100,000 shares of the Company’s Series E Convertible Preferred held by North South will be retired.
