On December 31, 2013, we completed the asset purchase of Paperly, a direct seller that allows its independent sales consultants to work with customers to design and create custom stationery through home parties, events and individual appointments.

Since we did not deliver 572,549 of the 7,446,600 shares of our Common Stock until January 2014, we recorded a payable totaling $263,373 at December 31, 2013. Goodwill arising from the transaction totaled $1.9 million.

Happenings Communications Group, Inc. Acquisition

On August 24, 2012 we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), with, Happenings Communications Group, Inc. ("HCG") and Rochon Capital Partners, Ltd. ("Rochon Capital"). Under the Share Exchange Agreement, in exchange for all of the capital stock of HCG, we issued 438,086,034 shares of our restricted common stock to Rochon Capital (the "Initial Share Exchange"). The shares of our Common Stock received by Rochon Capital totaled approximately 90% of our issued and outstanding stock at the time of issuance. The Initial Share Exchange was completed on September 25, 2012 and resulted in a change in control and HCG becoming our wholly owned subsidiary. In May 2013, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized number of shares of Common Stock to 5,000,000,000 and changed our name to CVSL Inc.

Possible Issuance of Additional Common Stock under Share Exchange Agreement

        Under the Share Exchange Agreement, Rochon Capital also purchased and has the right to an additional 504,813,514 shares of Common Stock (the "Additional Shares"). The second closing of the transactions and the issuance of the Additional Shares contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement (the "Second Tranche Closing") was to occur on the date that was the later of: (i) the 20th calendar day following the date on which we first mailed an Information Statement to our shareholders; (ii) the date the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") approved the Amendment; or (iii) the first business day following the satisfaction or waiver of all other conditions and obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, or on such other date and at such other time as the parties may mutually determine.

        On April 12, 2013, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the Florida Secretary of State to effect: (i) an increase in the number of authorized shares of the Corporation's common stock from 490,000,000 to 5,000,000,000 shares (the "Increase") and (ii) a change in the name of the Corporation to CVSL Inc. (the "Name Change") on May 27, 2013. The Company's shareholders holding a majority of its outstanding shares of common stock have approved the Increase and the Name Change and the Articles of Amendment (the "Amendment") effecting such transactions.

        However, at the time of the filing of the Amendment, Rochon Capital and CVSL each determined that it was not in the best interests of CVSL to consummate the Second Tranche Closing and the issuance of the Additional Shares at that time. As a result, the Share Exchange Agreement was amended on April 10, 2013 to provide that, among other things, the Second Tranche Closing will occur on the date specified in a written notice provided by Rochon Capital, which date shall not be prior to the 20th calendar day following the date on which we first mailed our Information Statement to our shareholders and the date the FINRA approves the Amendment.

        The amendment to the Share Exchange Agreement also (a) clarifies and redefines the number of shares that are to be issued at the Second Tranche Closing as 504,813,514 shares of our Common Stock, or any portion thereof provided for in the notice from Rochon Capital and (b) modifies the date tied to certain restrictions set forth in Section 7.08, since the Second Tranche Closing Date cannot be determined at this time. We have the ability to issue the Additional Shares to Rochon Capital, as agreed to in the Share Exchange Agreement, as amended, upon our receipt of written notice from Rochon Capital.

Convertible Note Settlement

On June 14, 2013, in accordance with the mandatory conversion provisions of the Convertible Subordinated Unsecured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $6,500,000 (the "Note") that we issued to the Tamala L. Longaberger Trust (the "Trust") as part of the consideration of the acquisition of TLC, we issued the Trust 32,500,000 shares of our Common Stock upon conversion of the Note.

Equity Contribution

On June 18, 2013, Rochon Capital Partners, Ltd. entered into an Equity Contribution Agreement with CVSL pursuant to which Rochon Capital Partners, Ltd. contributed to CVSL for no consideration 32,500,000 shares of our Common Stock to offset the shares issued to the Trust. During the fourth quarter of 2013, Rochon Capital Partners, Ltd. contributed and CVSL cancelled a total of 13,726,554 shares, which consisted of 4,512,975 shares related to the YIAH acquisition, 1,766,979 shares related to the TBT acquisition, 7,446,600 shares related to the Agel acquisition. The cancelled shares are not being held as treasury shares.

The Longaberger Acquisition

On March 18, 2013, we acquired a controlling interest in TLC, a direct-selling business based in Newark, Ohio. The transaction resulted in the Company acquiring 64.6% of the voting stock and 51.7% of all the stock in TLC in return for a $6,500,000 convertible note and a $4,000,000 promissory note. We incurred acquisition related costs of approximately $338,000 recorded during the fourth quarter of 2012, $138,000 during the first quarter of 2013 and $165,000 during the second quarter of 2013. The costs were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statements. The acquisition is being accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and as of March 18, 2013 TLC is a consolidated subsidiary of CVSL. No Goodwill was recorded relating to this transaction.
