2013 Acquisitions and Openings
 
In connection with the acquisition of the Foster Clubs in September 2012, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Jaguars Holdings, Inc. (“JHI”), entered into a Commercial Contract (the “Real Estate Agreement”), which agreement provided for JHI to purchase the real estate where the Foster Clubs are located. The transactions contemplated by the Real Estate Agreement closed on October 16, 2012. The purchase price of the real estate was $10.1 million (discounted to $9.6 million as explained below) and was paid with $350,000 in cash, $9.1 million in mortgage notes, and an agreement to make a one-time payment of $ 650,000 in twelve years that bears no interest. The note bears interest at the rate of 9.5%, is payable in 143 equal monthly installments and is secured by the real estate properties. The Company has recorded a debt discount of $431,252 related to the one-time payment of $650,000. The Company reduced previously recognized goodwill because the purchase of the Foster Clubs operations and the real estate were considered to be one purchase transaction with multiple closings and were included in the same purchase agreement.

On March 4, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of a second adult business in midtown Manhattan. The Company opened a new gentlemen's club at the 61 West 37th Street location, just east of Sixth Avenue. The Company paid $ 3 million for the business, with $ 1.5 million paid in cash and the remaining $1.5 million in six percent promissory notes convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $10.25. The notes call for monthly payments of $ 16,653, including principal and interest, and mature in 120 months. At the option of the noteholders, the principal amount of the notes and the accrued but unpaid interest thereon may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at $ 10.25 per share. The notes are redeemable by the Company at any time if the closing price of its common stock for 20 consecutive trading days is at least $ 13.47 per share. One of the noteholders with a note aggregating approximately $790,000 converted his note into shares during 2015.

A subsidiary of the Company closed a transaction involving the air rights above the Company’s 33rd Street club in Manhattan in October 2013. The subsidiary entered into a contract to buy the land and building for $ 10 million at any time in the next five years. Concurrent with the building transaction, a third party (the “Third Party Purchaser”) purchased the balance of the air rights of the property that are not subject to the Option Agreement. The purchase price for these air rights was $13,000,000, of which the Company’s subsidiary contributed $5,200,000 in connection with the overall business transaction. The transactions are part of a previously announced transaction under which the Company agreed to purchase the land and building for $ 23 million which has not closed. The new agreement also amends the lease for the three-story building at 50 West 33rd Street to $100,000 per month for the next five years rather than the $180,000 per month called for in the original agreement.
