Viggle To Sell Certain Assets to Perk.com in All-Stock Transaction

Focused on B2B Partnerships in Growing Fantasy Sports Market While Maintaining Upside Through Deal Structure and Retained Assets, Business is Restructured

Seeks Strategic Alternatives for Certain Other Remaining Assets

NEW YORK – December 14, 2015 – Viggle Inc. (Nasdaq:VGGL) entered into an agreement to sell a number of assets, including the Viggle applications and rewards program, to Perk.com, a leading cloud-based mobile rewards platform provider based in Austin, Texas, which trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol PER.TO. Perk is a mobile-centric rewards platform targeting the “New Consumer” and rewarding people for their everyday mobile and internet activities.

Viggle intends to rebrand itself as DraftDay to focus greater attention on its recently acquired DraftDay Gaming Group subsidiary which it will retain as its entertainment publishing site (upon completion of the transaction). The fantasy sports market is rapidly growing, with IBISWorld estimating that revenue for the fantasy sports market has grown at an annual rate of 10.8 percent to $2.0 billion from 2010 to 2015. DraftDay is a differentiated platform in the industry because it is focused on B2B partnerships, including new ventures with companies within the regulated gaming industry. Viggle will change its trading symbol to DDAY, which it has reserved with the NASDAQ.

At the present time, Wetpaint.com, its play-along app MyGuy, and its B2B provider of digital rewards in loyalty programs Choose Digital, will be retained and managed by Viggle as it explores strategic alternatives for these non-DraftDay assets. Due to the deal structure, Viggle anticipates that it will participate in the upside of the Viggle assets through the shares that it receives in Perk.com, both at the closing of the transaction and upon earn-out, depending on the business meeting certain performance metrics and PER.TO shares reaching certain targeted levels.

Robert F.X. Sillerman, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Having launched the Viggle app just a few short years ago, we have accomplished a lot. Perk.com is now a natural fit for further monetizing these assets, as it is the leading mobile rewards program. We believe this transaction will be a win-win for all participants to the transaction, including our shareholders, as we expect to benefit from two fast growing digital spaces with DraftDay Gaming Group and our stake in Perk.com. The transaction will allow us to achieve continuing upside of a significant ownership position in this exciting combination of businesses.”

Financial Details of the Transaction

Upon closing of the transaction, Perk.com has agreed to pay 1.5 million PER.TO shares to Viggle, which equates to $4.7 million based on the closing price of PER.TO shares on December 11, 2015. Perk.com is also advancing $1 million to Viggle, which can be repaid by reducing the number of shares Viggle receives at closing to 1.37 million shares. Additionally, if the annual revenue of the combined companies exceeds $130 million in either 2016 or 2017, Viggle will receive an additional 2.0 million PER.TO shares. Perk will assume all of Viggle’s points liability. Perk will also provide Viggle with two warrants to purchase a total of 2.0 million PER.TO shares at CDN $6.25 per share. The first warrant will vest and become exercisable for1.0 million PER.TO shares if within two years of the closing, PER.TO shares trade at an average of CDN $12.50 for 20 consecutive days. The second warrant will vest and become exercisable for an additional1.0 million PER.TO shares if within two years of closing, PER.TO shares trade at an average of $18.75 for 20 consecutive days.

Mr. Sillerman stated, “Assuming the earnout is achieved and the warrants become exercisable, Viggle will have received approximately $75MM in consideration, with continuing potential upside for Viggle’s shareholders.”

The transaction is expected to close in early 2016, subject to the customary closing conditions.
