Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As disclosed below, the registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated as of August 15, 2014 between itself, its wholly-owned subsidiary, FD Acquisition Corp., and The Fresh Diet, Inc., a Florida corporation (“FD”).
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the registrant acquired FD through a reverse triangular merger as the registrant created a subsidiary corporation (FD Acquisition Corp) that merged with and into FD with FD being the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant. FD is the nationwide leader in freshly prepared gourmet specialty meals, using the finest specialty, artisanal, direct from source ingredients, delivered daily, directly to consumers using The Fresh Diet® platform. The Fresh Diet’s platform includes a company managed and owned preparation and logistics infrastructure, including a comprehensive company owned network of same day and next day last mile food delivery capabilities. The purchase price consisted of 10,000,000 shares of the registrant’s common stock. The majority of FD’s current liabilities consist of approximately $5 million of deferred revenues and approximately $1.3 million in short term commercial loans and there are additional ordinary course of business expenses such as trade payables, payroll and sales taxes which varies from month to month. In addition, it has some long term obligations the bulk of which consist of interest free loans from FD’s shareholders in the amount of approximately $2.2 million which are not due for three years. Prior to the merger FD had purchased an immaterial amount of product from the registrant. It is anticipated that FD will operate as an independent subsidiary subject to oversight of its board of directors and the registrant’s President and CEO and that two of FD’s executive officers will be appointed to the registrant’s board of directors.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On August 18, 2014 we completed a round of financing of $1,435,000 through the sale of 1.435 million shares of our common stock at a price per share of $1.00. No warrants or other convertible securities were involved in the financing and the financing was completed by officers of the registrant without requiring the services of a placement agent. The financing was an exempt private placement under Regulation D with offers and sales made only to “accredited investors” without the use of public advertising.
