During the three months ended March 31, 2014, $180,000 was capitalized as software development cost.  During the three months ended March 31, 2014, a total of $675,000 of licenses were purchased by exchanging the Company’s own licenses and were accounted for as a non-cash transaction in accordance with ASC 985-845. See Note 1 for more details.
