Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization | Note 4 – Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization The Transactions and Merger Agreement On January 28, 2015, Propel, Propel Media and Kitara consummated the Transactions. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, as amended, the Members exchanged all of the outstanding Propel Media limited liability company interests for (i) $80,000,000 in cash, (ii) 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, (iii) the right to receive performance-based “earn out” payments that enables the Members to receive up to an additional $40,000,000 in cash or stock consideration based on Propel Media reaching certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) levels during the 2015 to 2018 fiscal years, (iv) on or prior to June 30, 2016, a $10,000,000 payment (the “Deferred Obligation”) in cash and/or shares of Propel common stock, and (v) immediately after the payment of certain fees to Highbridge on or about January 28, 2019, the $6,000,000 Deferred Payment in cash (the “Exchange”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, as amended on January 26, 2016, the $10,000,000 Deferred Obligation is payable in cash and/or stock not later than, June 30, 2019. The Company can pay the $10,000,000 Deferred Obligation from the raising of capital via an equity financing or from available working capital. The Company is required to use its reasonable best efforts to complete equity financings that would raise sufficient net proceeds to pay the $10,000,000 Deferred Obligation in cash to the Transferors on or before June 30, 2019 (the “Equity Financing Period”). In addition, the Company’s board of directors, at least two times per year during the Equity Financing Period, is obligated to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, the amount, if any, of the Company’s working capital available to be used to pay all or a portion of the $10,000,000 Deferred Obligation in cash, taking into account such factors as it may deem relevant. If the Company’s board of directors determines that there is available working capital to pay all or a portion of the $10,000,000 Deferred Obligation, the Company must use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain any required lender consent and, if such consent is obtained, must promptly pay to the Transferors an amount in cash equal to such available working capital. Finally, Mr. Pobre, on behalf of the Transferors, is permitted to elect, during the ten day period following each December 31st during the Equity Financing Period, commencing December 31, 2016, to receive any unpaid amount of the $10,000,000 Deferred Obligation in shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company recorded the obligations for the $10,000,000 Deferred Payment and the $6,000,000 Deferred Payment, (in the aggregate, “Deferred Payments to Transferors”) to Transferors at fair value. Fair value was determined by recording the fixed obligations at their net present value, discounted at an interest rate of 10% per annum. The discount rate used was based upon the interest rate of the Term Loan. The Company is amortizing the discount utilizing the interest method over the periods for which future amounts are due. On January 28, 2015, upon the consummation of the Exchange, the Company recorded the fair value of the Deferred Payments to Transferors of $12,696,000, reflecting a discount of $3,304,000. As discussed above, on January 26, 2016, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the transferors agreed to defer receipt of the $10,000,000 until June 2019. This extension of the timing to remit payment was evaluated for extinguishment accounting. The amendment was determined to be a modification for accounting purposes, and as such, the unamortized discount of $9,582,000 will be amortized over the remaining term of the obligation. As a result, subsequent to the amendment date, the effective interest rate on the obligation was reduced to 1.25%. For the three month ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded discount amortization of $144,000 and $324,000, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded discount amortization of $345,000 and $544,000 respectively. The unamortized discount was $1,732,000 as of June 30, 2016 and $2,076,000 as of December 31, 2015. The following represents the obligations to Transferors outstanding under the Exchange Agreement as of June 30, 2016. Obligations Amount due on or before June 30, 2019 (pursuant to amendment dated January 26, 2016) $ 10,000,000 Amount due January 28, 2019 6,000,000 Total, gross 16,000,000 Less: discount (1,732,000 ) Total, net $ 14,268,000 Pro Forma Financial Information The following presents the unaudited pro forma combined financial information, as if (a) the Company had always been a taxable entity and (b) the Transactions had occurred as of January 1, 2015.
