INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 the Company wrote off the remaining balance of its investment in YogaEarth Group LLC (“YogaEarth”) and recorded a $50,000 expense in connection with the write off. Contemporaneously with the write off, the Company, YogaEarth and other third parties (collectively, the “Parties”) entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement”) related to prior investment activity and intellectual property development initiatives undertaken by the Parties. Under the terms of the Settlement, YogaEarth agreed to sell its 50% ownership position in the kaniwa protein extraction intellectual property (the “Kaniwa IP”) to the other Parties for the termination of certain equity rights and claims held by such parties in and against YogaEarth. Under the terms of the Settlement, the Company issued shares of its common stock with a fair market value of $84,500 to the third parties in exchange for their 37.5% of the Kaniwa IP, resulting in the Company owning 100% of the Kaniwa IP. The Company booked the $220,000 implied value of the Kainwa IP to intangible assets, net and recorded a gain on the transaction of $137,500. On December 22, 2014, the USPTO notified the Company that its claims under the Kaniwa IP were not allowed. The Company filed a response with the USPTO on March 23, 2015. In July 2015, the Company received a Notice of Allowance from the USPTO regarding its claims for the Kaniwa IP. On April 19, the Company received confirmation from the USPTO that the patent related to the Kaniwa IP was issued.
