NOTE 9 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

St. Louis and Sarasota Operations Common Stock Sales

 

Effective September 1, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to the Escrow Agreement with Multiband, Inc. (Multiband) traded under the NASDAQ symbol MBND, for the acquisition by Multiband of the common stock of the Company’s former wholly-owned subsidiaries, the St. Louis and Sarasota Operations, for $2,000,000 in cash.  The $2,000,000 in proceeds was used to reduce the outstanding borrowings under a previous loan agreement with BOA.

 

Hartford and Lakewood Operations Asset Sales

 

On July 25, 2012, the Company and the Hartford and Lakewood Operations entered into an asset purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which the Hartford and Lakewood Operations sold substantially all of their assets to two newly-created subsidiaries of Kavveri Telecom Products Limited (Kavveri) for a purchase price of $5.5 million in cash, subject to adjustment, and the assumption of their various liabilities.  At closing, the Company received $4.9 million in cash, with the remaining $600,000 of the purchase price to be placed into escrow pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Company used the proceeds from this sale to repay the full amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement of $4,022,320 as of July 25, 2012.  The difference of $877,680 was deposited in its operating cash account.

  

The parties agreed to place $350,000 of the purchase price into escrow pending assignment of certain contracts post-closing, with the Company receiving those funds upon successful assignment of the contracts. The remaining $250,000 is to be escrowed for purposes of satisfying certain adjustments to the purchase price based on a final net asset valuation to be completed after closing as well as repurchase obligations of certain delinquent accounts receivable. No later than three days after the final determination of the net asset valuation, the purchasers are required to deposit the $600,000 into escrow. On September 4, 2012, the purchasers provided the Company with their net asset valuation as of the closing date.  The Company is currently evaluating the net asset valuation within its 30 day review period to approve or disagree with such calculations. If the parties disagree, they have 20 days to resolve any differences, and if they are unable to come to an agreement, the matter will then be submitted to one or more independent, nationally-recognized accounting firms for final determination.

 

The Company has reported the financial activity of these four operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented.  A summary of the operating results for the discontinued operations is as follows:
