Guarantee provided by The RHL Group

 

On May 6, 2011, the RHL Group agreed to guarantee up to $250,000 in payments to a vendor for future services to be rendered. In consideration of this guarantee, the RHL Group received (i) a warrant to purchase 625,000 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $0.046 per share, which was the closing price of our common stock on the date of the transaction, and (ii) 125,000 shares of our common stock priced as of the same date. In the event that the RHL Group has to perform on this guarantee, interest on any outstanding balance paid to the vendor by the RHL Group will be added to the balance of the Fifth Amended Note or any subsequent renewals. Additionally, any balances due to this vendor at any given time will reduce the amount available under the Fifth Amended Note or any subsequent renewals. The warrants and shares were issued on November 11, 2011 to the RHL Group.

Litigation Matters

 

From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings generally incidental to our business. While the result of any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, our management presently believes that the outcome of any known, pending or threatened legal proceeding or claim, individually or combined, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

 

On January 26, 2012, MMR filed a complaint against a certain former officer of pre-merger Favrille, Inc., and other potential defendants (the "Favrille Defendants") that the Company believed may have misappropriated some of Favrille's intellectual and personal property. On July 31, 2011, Ropers Majeski, Kohn and Bentley ("Ropers"), a national firm with offices in San Francisco, Redwood City, San Jose, Los Angeles, New York and Boston, became counsel of record in this matter. The matter was settled as of September 12, 2012. The defendants in this suit have agreed to supply MMR significant information and data concerning the intellectual and personal property. The information and data will allow MMR to continue to value and exploit certain of the Company's intellectual and personal property through licensing and/or sales agreements.

 

On December 9, 2011, MyMedicalRecords, Inc. entered into a Non-Exclusive Settlement and Patent License Agreement (the "Agreement") with Surgery Center Management LLC ("SCM"). In consideration for the rights granted under the Agreement and in consideration of a settlement and release agreement, SCM contracted to pay MMR an initial payment of $5 million payable on December 23, 2011 and additional payments of $5 million per year for five consecutive years. After numerous attempts to collect the past due amount of $5 million, on January 19, 2012, MyMedicalRecords, Inc. filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles for breach of contract and is seeking damages in an amount of $30 million. On September 19, 2012 the Company engaged Liner, Grode, Stein, Yankelevitz, Sunshine, Regenstreif & Taylor, LLP ("Liner") to substitute into this matter. The Agreement contains an arbitration clause and arbitration proceedings have commenced. An appeal is also presently pending the Second Appellate District of the California Court of Appeal stemming from the Superior Court's denial of SCM's Petition to Compel Arbitration. The Company and SCM have participated in an appellate mediation program administered by the California Court of Appeal and are in the process of implementing the results of the mediation. Thus, this litigation is currently pending before the arbitration tribunal, the Superior Court and the Court of Appeals. Counsel does not have enough facts at this time to predict the chances of either a favorable or unfavorable outcome, nor does counsel have any facts upon which to base any information regarding collectability.
