NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

On October 3, 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Hoang Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Hoang Huu Thinh, an individual (“Hoang”) for the purchase of the BWPS business. Pursuant to the Hoang Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company is to pay Hoang up to $60,000 in cash pursuant to the earn-out provisions of the Hoang Asset Purchase Agreement. The earn-out provisions were defined as follows, upon completion of the Closing and within three (3) years thereafter ("Earn-out Period" ends 10/3/2025), Hoang shall be eligible for two additional cash payments (i) if in any calendar month, the monthly gross revenue generated by the BWPS business is US$47,500.00 or more, then the buyer shall pay Hoang a one-time payment of US$30,000.00 (“Earn-out Payment 1”), payable within thirty days of the Earn-out Payment 1 being earned and (ii) if in any calendar month, the monthly gross revenue generated by the BWPS Business is US$52,000.00 or more, then the buyer shall pay Hoang a one-time payment of US$30,000.00 (“Earn-out Payment 2”), payable within thirty days of the Earn-out Payment 2 being earned. As of September 30, 2024 no payments have been made pursuant to the earn-out provision.

 

Pursuant to the RevenueZen acquisition as described above in Note 4, the Company granted earn-out payments that could be paid to RevenueZen pursuant to the earn-out formula described in the RevenueZen Asset Purchase Agreement. The earn-out formula specifies for a period of one year, if the SDE of the RevenueZen business exceeds $227,000, the sellers of RevenueZen Delaware would be entitled to receive an amount equal to three times the amount above $227,000 of SDE. SDE in this case is defined as gross revenue, less returns, discounts, and refunds and reduced by the cost of contractor payments, freelance copywriters, and payroll and benefits, consistent with the practices of the seller in the operations of the RevenueZen business, and for the sake of clarity exclude any payments, reimbursements, administrative charges, overhead charges, or other payments of any kind to the buyer, the Company, or any affiliate thereof. The earn-out amount will include 20% of any revenues of the Company that are from any customers of RevenueZen Delaware. The Company has the option to pay any earn-out amount in cash or in shares of preferred stock of the Company. The Company valued the earn-out provision at $1,869,000 and as of September 30, 2024 no payments have been made pursuant to the earn-out provision.
