The RO Agreement provided for the sale of the DraftDay Business to RO for a purchase price of $4,000 plus stock and warrants of RO. On September 8, 2015, the Company and MGT Sports entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Viggle, Inc. (“Viggle”) and Viggle’s subsidiary DraftDay Gaming Group, Inc. (“DDGG”), pursuant to which Viggle acquired all of the assets of the DraftDay.com business (the “DraftDay Business”) from the Company and MGT Sports.

In addition, in exchange for providing certain transitional services, DDGG issued to MGT Sports a warrant to purchase 1,500,000 shares of DDGG common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share.

MGT Gaming owns two U. S. patents covering certain features of casino slot machines. MGT’s wholly owned subsidiary Medicsight owns U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved medical imaging software and has designed an automated carbon dioxide insufflation device on which the Company receives royalties from an international distributor.
 
MGT Gaming owns U.S. Patents 7,892,088 and 8,550,554 (the “’088 and ’554 patents,” respectively), both entitled “Gaming Device Having a Second Separate Bonusing Event” and both relating to casino gaming systems in which a second game played on an interactive sign is triggered once specific events occur in a first game. On November 2, 2012, MGT Gaming filed a lawsuit (No. 3:12–cv–741) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi alleging patent infringement against certain companies which either manufacture, sell or lease gaming systems alleged to be in violation of MGT Gaming’s patent rights, or operate casinos that offer gaming systems that are alleged to be in violation of MGT Gaming’s ’088 patent, including Penn National Gaming, Inc. (“Penn”) (NASDAQ GS: PENN), and Aruze Gaming America, Inc. (“Aruze America”). An amended complaint added the ’554 patent, a continuation of the ’088 patent.
 
In May 2014, Aruze America successfully sought a stay of the Mississippi action pending resolution of a Petition filed by a co–defendant for Inter Parties Review (“IPR”) with the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”), challenging the’088 patent.
 
Aruze America and a related company, Aruze Macau, subsequently filed additional IPR Petitions seeking review of the ’088 and ‘554 patents. Aruze America also filed a Request for Ex Parte Re–examination of the ’088 patent that was subsequently denied.
 
On July 29, 2015, MGT, Aruze America, Aruze Macau, and Penn agreed, through their respective counsel, to settle all pending disputes, including the Mississippi litigation and all proceedings at the PTO. The parties subsequently jointly terminated the Mississippi litigation and the PTO proceedings. The Company received a payment of $90, which was earned as licensing revenue.

On April 21, 2015, Gioia Systems, LLC (“Gioia”) filed a complaint against the Company, the Company’s majority owned subsidiary, MGT Interactive, LLC and Interactive directors with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. MGT Interactive, LLC was also included as a derivative plaintiff in the actions, LLC’s complaint asserts claims for breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty relating to the September 2013 Contribution Agreement and related agreements between Gioia, the Company and MGT Interactive, LLC.
 
On August 28, 2015, the Company and MGT Interactive along with Gioia entered into an Assignment and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”). MGT Interactive sold certain tangible and intellectual property assets in exchange for Gioia’s 49% membership interest in Interactive along with a cash payment of $35.
