Through the Acquisition, the Company: (1) acquired the following Target assets -- all inventory, receivables, equipment, store fixtures, tools, furniture, customer lists, trade names, URL’s, websites, telephones, contractual rights and other intellectual property; (2) has retained the former full and part-time staff of Target; and (3) assumed liability for the Target's accrued gift card liabilities and customer product returns.
