Item 1.03. Bankruptcy or Receivership
On November 15, 2020, a prospective buyer entered into a non-binding letter of intent to purchase the CBAV1 Assets pursuant to the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Code sale process. On December 18, 2020, CBAV1 filed a motion to sell substantially of the CBAV1 Assets free and clear of all interests, liens, claims and encumbrances. On that same date, CBAV1 also filed a motion to approve (i) certain procedures for the submission of bids in connection with the sale of substantially all of the assets, (ii) the break-up fee and expense reimbursement, (iii) scheduling an auction and (iv) scheduling a sale hearing.
On March 12, 2021, the bankruptcy court approved the sale of the CBAV1, LLC Assets to BTL Diffusion SARL, the winning bidder, at the auction held on March 10, 2021 and March 11, 2021 for a total sum of $3,000,000, which includes a cash payment at closing in the amount of $2,650,000, less certain closing costs and credits, and additional royalty payments in the amount of $150,000 on April 15, 2022 and in the amount of $200,000 on April 15, 2023 (“CBAV1-BTL Transaction”).
A dry closing of the CBAV1-BTL Transaction occurred on April 16, 2021, with the transfer of assets and release of funds to be completed on or before April 21, 2021 (“Final Closing”). Contemporaneously with the Final Closing, a certain license agreement between CBAV1 and Edison Nation, LLC (“Edison Nation”) shall terminate and any remaining operational assets of Edison Nation shall be transferred to BTL.
