NOTE 8 – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PURCHASE AGREEMENT

On February 25, 2011, the Company, Atlas Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company formed in February 2011 (“Atlas Sub”), and Peak Wellness, Inc. (“Peak”), entered into and consummated an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Atlas Sub purchased certain intellectual property assets from Peak (the “Acquisition”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired from Peak all intellectual property pertaining to MYO-T12, a natural-myostatin inhibitor, including the formula and process for making MYO-T12, certain trademarks, trade secrets, patent applications and certain domain names.  The aggregate consideration for MYO-T12 was $4,662,000 paid in cash, a promissory note and shares of common stock. The contractually stated purchase price for the assets was $1,150,000, of which $450,000 was paid in cash and $700,000 via the issuance of the promissory note. Additionally, the Company issued 7,024,000 shares of common stock with an aggregate fair value of $3,512,000 to Peak as part of the purchase price of MYO-T12, representing 12% of the fully diluted voting common stock of the Company on the date of the Acquisition.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued a secured promissory note to Peak (the “Promissory Note”) in the amount of $700,000 with interest accruing at an interest rate of 3% per annum.  The Promissory Note was payable in two installments as follows: $350,000 plus accrued interest was due within 180 days after the closing date of the Agreement (originally August 25, 2011 but extended to the earlier of November 30, 2011 or the closing of a certain financing and paid on November 29, 2011) and $350,000 plus accrued interest was due on the first anniversary of the closing date of the Agreement and paid on February 21, 2012.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement and the Promissory Note, the Company entered into a security agreement with Peak to secure the payments due under the Promissory Note (the “Security Agreement”). Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Company granted Peak a continuing security interest in the assets purchased from Peak. The Security Agreement also secured all of the Company’s obligations to Peak, whether related or unrelated to the Promissory Note. The security interest was released in February 2012 upon payment of the final installment of the Promissory Note. On the closing date of the Acquisition, new officers and a new director were appointed to serve the Company.

The Company completed its annual impairment testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets after the fourth quarter of 2011. Based on (i) assessment of current and expected future economic conditions, (ii) trends, strategies and projected revenues from sales of MYO-T12® and (iii) assumptions similar to those that market participants would make in valuing the Company's intangible assets, management determined that the carrying values of the intellectual property intangible assets exceeded its fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded noncash impairment charges totaling $2,662,000 in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2011, reducing the MYO-T12 intellectual property asset to its fair value of $2,000,000.
