Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On September 5, 2013, AOL Inc. (“AOL”) completed its acquisition of Adap.tv, Inc. (“Adap.tv”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 5, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among AOL, Carmel Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of AOL (“Merger Sub”), Adap.tv, and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Adap.tv, and Adap.tv became a wholly-owned subsidiary of AOL. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

AOL acquired Adap.tv for aggregate consideration of approximately $413.8 million, net of cash acquired and subject to a customary post-closing adjustment for working capital. The aggregate consideration consists of approximately $331.3 million in cash, and approximately $82.5 million in AOL common stock. The cash portion of the aggregate consideration was allocated among holders of Adap.tv preferred stock, Adap.tv common stock, and warrants to purchase Adap.tv stock. Vested Adap.tv stock options were cashed out as part of the transaction.

In connection therewith and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, AOL assumed the Adap.tv, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, and unvested Adap.tv stock options and shares of Adap.tv restricted stock were converted into shares of AOL restricted common stock, with a fair value of approximately $47.3 million. AOL currently estimates that approximately $10.8 million of the $47.3 million in fair value of the converted awards will be attributed to the purchase price for accounting purposes and the remaining approximately $36.5 million is expected to be recognized as compensation expense over the future requisite service period of these employees (subject to adjustments for actual forfeitures).
