Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On October 13, 2017, U.S. Gold Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Leading Testing Laboratories, Inc. dba LTL Group (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which it sold 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Dataram Memory, its wholly owned subsidiary, to the Purchaser in consideration for a cash payment of Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000).

 

Global Alliance Securities acted as a financial advisor in the transaction. Net proceeds, after payment of expenses associated with Dataram Memory, will be distributed on a pro rata basis to the Company’s shareholders of record on May 8, 2017, as previously disclosed in the Registration Statement/prospectus on Form S-4 (File No. 333-215385), declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 7, 2017 (the “Registration Statement”).

 

As disclosed in the Registration Statement, the costs of the transaction to be deducted from the purchase price to determine the net proceeds shall include:

 

   1. Sale costs (including applicable legal and accounting fees tied directly to the sale), the Company’s investment banker and broker commissions tied directly to the sale, employee bonuses paid specifically in connection with the sale of the assets;
     
   2. Costs incurred by a third party administrator overseeing / managing the sale of the assets, if any. This shall not include the costs of the Company’s employee’s managing the legacy business;
     
   3. Legacy business employee benefits triggered solely by the sale of the legacy assets, such as employee severance;
     
   4. Debt repayment of the legacy business by the Company, if required as a condition of sale; and
     
  5. Shareholder distribution costs for special dividend.

 

Net proceeds are estimated to be approximately $286,500 after deducting costs associated with the legacy Dataram Memory business and the sale thereof including $142,500 for legal and accounting expenses, $74,000 for financial advisory fees, $261,400 for repayment of outstanding undebtedness related to Dataram Memory, $10,000 for paying agent expenses and $125,000 reserved for payments to be made in connection with legacy litigation settlement. The Company will update its disclosure regarding the final net proceeds amount as soon as such numbers are available.

U.S. Gold Corp. Announces Disposition of Dataram Memory Corp.

 

-Sale of non-core business enables USAU to focus completely on gold exploration

 

ELKO, NV, October 16, 2017 – U.S. Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU) today announced it sold its subsidiary, Dataram Memory Corp. Dataram Memory Corp. develops, manufactures and markets computer add-in memory products for use with workstations, minicomputers and servers. Since the Company’s acquisition of Gold King Corp. f/k/a U.S. Gold Corp. in May 2017, the Company shifted its focus to gold exploration and Dataram Memory Corp. was no longer its core business.

 

Commenting on the disposition, Edward Karr, President & CEO said, “The sale of our Dataram Memory legacy subsidiary is another step in our transformation to a focused junior gold exploration and development company. We view this disposition as a win-win-win: for U.S. Gold Corp., for our shareholders and for Dataram Memory Corp. I would like to thank our Board of Directors for their involvement in the process. We are looking at, and evaluating, several new potential opportunities in the exploration and mining sectors.”

 

Global Alliance Securities, LLC arranged for this transaction.

 

The net proceeds from the sale of Dataram Memory Corp., when finally determined after deducting expenses associated with the legacy business and the sale, will be distributed, on a pro rata basis, to the Company’s shareholders of record as of May 8, 2017.
