[1] The trade names related to our web properties have an indefinite life, and as such are not amortized.

[2] On May 8, 2015, we purchased two domain websites with a fair value of $715,874. In May 2016, the carrying value was adjusted by approximately $46 thousand to reflect the lower price paid as compared to the contingent liability recorded as a result of the change in the price of Inuvo stock from the date of acquisition to the first contingent release of shares. In March 2017, we determined that the seller would not meet the specific performance target for the second year and therefore, we adjusted the carrying value of the intangible asset by $222,477.
