PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview and Plan of Operation
Company History
CornerWorld Corporation (hereinafter referred to as “CornerWorld”, the “Company”, “we” “our” or “us”) was incorporated on November 9, 2004, in the State of Nevada. Effective May 2007, we changed our name to CornerWorld Corporation. Our principal executive offices are located at 13101 Preston Road, Suite 510, Dallas, Texas 75240. Our telephone number is (888) 837-3910 and our fiscal year-end is December 31 having recently been changed; prior to December 31, 2013, our fiscal year ended April 30.
The Company is a marketing and technology services company creating opportunities from the increased accessibility of content across mobile and internet platforms. The Company conducts its business through its main operating subsidiaries as described below.
The Company provides certain marketing services through its operating subsidiary Enversa Companies LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Enversa”). Enversa is a technology-oriented direct response marketing company. Using its proprietary technology, Enversa identifies qualified leads for advertisers thereby connecting them with potential consumers. Enversa utilizes a pay-for-performance pricing model which is very appealing to clients because it ensures that they are billed solely for campaign performance. Enversa also operates several ad networks. Enversa also provides search engine optimization services (“SEO”), domain leasing and website management services on a recurring monthly basis.
The Company provides telecommunications services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Woodland Holdings Corp. (“Woodland Holdings”). Woodland Holdings was the owner of S Squared, LLC, doing business in the state of Texas as “Ranger Wireless LLC” (“Ranger”). The Company sold Ranger on September 30, 2013. See also Recent Developments, below, for more detail.
Woodland Holdings also provides telephony and internet services through its subsidiaries Phone Services and More, L.L.C., doing business as Visitatel (“PSM”) and T2 Communications, L.L.C. (“T2”). As a provider of Internet and VoIP services, T2 delivers leading-edge technology to business and residential customers in Michigan and Texas. Offerings include: phone lines, internet connections, long distance and toll-free services. T2 is a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC). PSM, also a CLEC, holds an FCC 214 License as a wholesale long distance service provider to the carrier community and large commercial users of transport minutes.
Recent Developments
As discussed further in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, during 2013, the Company divested its largest asset, Ranger and paid off substantially all of its debt. Accordingly, Ranger’s operations have been reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying annual report and consolidated financial statements.
Business Segments
Our business consists primarily of two integrated business segments: (i) marketing services and (ii) telecommunications services. Our marketing services segment is comprised of Enversa and its subsidiaries. Our telecommunications services segment consists of T² and PSM. Our corporate administrative functions are tracked separately and the associated costs are not pushed down to the operating segments. For financial information relating to our business segments, please see “Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”
Regulatory Matters
Portions of our operations, particularly our telecommunications services, are highly regulated and subject to a variety of federal and state laws, including environmental laws, which require that we obtain various licenses, permits and approvals. We must obtain and maintain various federal, state and local governmental licenses, permits and approvals in order to provide our services. We believe we are in material compliance with all applicable licensing and similar regulatory requirements.

Employees

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On October 10, 2013, the Company’s former President, Marc A. Pickren (“Pickren”) filed a lawsuit in Dallas County District court alleging, among other things, that the Company had wrongfully terminated his employment; Pickren’s suit sought claims approximating $265,000. As noted in the Company’s form 8-K filed on October 4, 2013, Pickren’s employment agreement expired on September 15, 2013, Pickren’s employment agreement was not renewed, Pickren was removed as President of CornerWorld on October 4, 2013 and the Company terminated Pickren’s employment on October 8, 2013. The Company settled Pickren’s claim out of court for an undisclosed amount in August 2014.
The Company is occasionally involved in other litigation matters relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business.

As of January 22, 2015, there were approximately 88 holders of record of our common stock. Because brokers and other institutions hold many of the shares on behalf of shareholders, we are unable to determine the actual number of shareholders represented by these record holders.
The Company has two equity compensation plans. Please see the information found under the “Executive Compensation” section in this document.
Dividends
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain all future earnings to fund the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Pursuant to its credit agreement, the Company is precluded from paying dividends.
Penny Stock
The Company’s common stock is subject to provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), commonly referred to as the “penny stock rule.” Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stock, and Rule 15g-9(d) incorporates the definition of “penny stock” that is found in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The Company is subject to the SEC’s Penny Stock rules.
Since the Company’s common stock is deemed to be penny stock, trading in the shares is subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. “Accredited investors” include persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse. For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such security and must have the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction of a risk disclosure document, prepared by the SEC, relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in an account and information to the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of a broker-dealer to trade and/or maintain a market in the Company’s common stock and may affect the ability of the Company’s stockholders to sell their shares.
Recent Issuances of Unregistered Stock
None.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Introduction
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.
Overview
CornerWorld is a marketing and technology services company providing services for the increased accessibility of content across mobile and Internet platforms. The Company is a holding company whose wholly owned subsidiaries operate in two rapidly changing business segments: marketing services and communication services.
Originally a development stage company, the Company has completely evolved into a fully integrated telecommunications and marketing services company. Since completing the integration of our two segments, we have developed a consistent revenue stream and gross margins that support not only our administrative and operating costs but also produce the cash-flows necessary to service our financing commitments.
Our marketing services segment includes Enversa and all its subsidiaries. Enversa is an interactive media company with a focus on marketing to generate qualified leads (consumers) for its customers. In addition, Enversa provides SEO services, domain leasing and website management services on a recurring monthly basis. We believe the marketing industry will continue to trend toward digital and social media as well as search retargeting and we are attempting to position our marketing services segment to address the rapidly changing needs of our customers.
Our key assets in our communication services segment are our CLEC’s and their respective licenses.
Year ended December 31, 2014 Highlights
· | We completed the change of our fiscal year end from April 30 to December 31. |
|
|
· | We completed the development of our TinyDial mobile telecommunications application. |
|
|
· | We signed a non-binding LOI to merge operations with Florida based Neogenix, LLC DBA Ogenix, LLC. |
Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can have a significant effect on our revenues, income (loss) from operations, and net income, as well as on the value of certain assets on our consolidated balance sheet. We believe that there are several accounting policies that are critical to an understanding of our historical and future performance as these policies affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and significant estimates and judgments applied by management. While there are a number of accounting policies, methods and estimates affecting our consolidated financial statements, areas that are particularly significant include allowance for doubtful accounts, recoverability of long-lived assets (including goodwill), revenue recognition and stock-based compensation. In addition, please refer to Note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our accounting policies.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an estimate of buckets of customer accounts receivable, stratified by age, that, historically, have proven to be uncollectible; in addition, in certain cases, the allowance estimate is supplemented by specific identification of larger customer accounts and our best estimate of the likelihood of potential loss, taking into account such factors as the financial condition and payment history of major customers. We evaluate the collectability of our receivables at least quarterly. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The differences could be material and could significantly impact cash flows from operating activities.
- 5 -
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company’s management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of long-lived asset impairment is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management.
Revenue Recognition
It is the Company’s policy that revenue from product sales or services will be recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB No. 104”), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB No. 101”). SAB No. 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product was not delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for awards made under its two stock-based compensation plans pursuant to the fair value provisions of ASC No. 718. ASC No. 718 requires the recognition of stock-based compensation expense, using a fair-value based method, for costs related to all share-based payments including stock options. ASC No. 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC No. 718 and estimates its fair value based on using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. This model also requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including:
| (a) | The expected volatility of our common stock price, which we determine based on comparable companies; |
|
|
|
| (b) | Expected dividends (which does not apply, as we do not anticipate issuing dividends); |
|

| (c) | Expected life of the award, which is estimated based on the historical award exercise behavior of our employees; and |

These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods. In the future, we may elect to use different assumptions under the Black-Scholes valuation model or a different valuation model, which could result in a significantly different impact on our net income or loss.
The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards is made as of their respective dates of grant using the Black Scholes option valuation model. Because the Company’s options have certain characteristics that are significantly different from traded options, the Black Scholes option valuation model may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of the Company’s options. Although the fair value of the Company’s options is determined in accordance with ASC No. 718, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction. The calculated compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the options.
See also Note 8 – “Stock Based Compensation Plans”– to the consolidated financial statements contained in this report for additional information regarding our accounting policies for stock-based compensation.

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2014 to the Year Ended December 31, 2013
Consolidated CornerWorld Corporation
Revenues
We had revenues totaling $988,221 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $1,091,171 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease of $102,950, or 9.4%, is primarily due to revenue decreases in our marketing services segment resulting from the deterioration of the market for lead generation in the for-profit education space.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and Amortization expenses totaled $16,808 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $56,400 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease of $39,592 is due to the fact that several of our larger telecommunications fixed assets have become fully depreciated.
Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes
Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes totaled $999,175 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $2,098,981 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The improvement of $1,099,806 is primarily due to reductions in SG&A expenses, which included reductions in rent and personnel, combined with the fact that, during the year ended December 31, 2013, we impaired our remaining Goodwill recording a charge of $554,986.
Net Income (Loss)
Net Loss totaled $999,175 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to a Net Income of $1,482,532 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The Net Income (Loss) decrease of $2,481,707 is primarily due to the absence of prior year’s aforementioned reductions in SG&A expenses and Goodwill impairment charge of $554,986 which were offset by the fact that prior year Net Income numbers included earnings from discontinued operations totaling $792,970 as well as a gain on the sale of discontinued operations totaling $2,788,543.
Marketing Services
Revenues:
Our marketing services segment had revenues totaling $706,556 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $955,702 for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease is due to the deterioration in the for-profit educational lead generation space and significant ongoing challenges and customer churn in our search engine optimization and website leasing businesses.
Depreciation:
Our marketing services segment had depreciation expenses totaling $0 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $5,429 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was due to all of our marketing fixed assets becoming fully depreciated.
Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Before Taxes and Net Income (Loss):
Income from Continuing Operations Before Taxes and Net Income totaled $42,321 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes and Net Loss of $33,131 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The slight decrease is due to significant reductions in SG&A, primarily in the form of headcount, which were offset, to some extent, by the aforementioned reductions in revenue.
Telecommunications Services
Our communications services segment consists of our Woodland division.
- 7 -
Revenues:
Our communications services segment had revenues totaling $244,155 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $135,469 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in revenue is due to a new contract signed by one of our CLEC’s that enables it to bill and collect revenues from carrier access billing.
Depreciation:
Our communications services segment had Depreciation expenses totaling $10,709 for the year ended December 31, 2014 versus $16,607 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease is due to more of our telecom assets becoming fully depreciated.
Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes:
Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes totaled $46,723 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to a Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes totaling $290,200 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The improvement of $243,477 is primarily due to reductions in SG&A expenses which included the closure of our Michigan office along with the termination of its associated personnel as well the fact that the prior year’s results included a $249,000 investment banking fee related to the divestiture of our discontinued operations.
Net Income (Loss):
Net Loss totaled $46,723 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to Net Income of $3,254,873 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease of $3,301,596 is due to the fact that prior year Net Income numbers included earnings from discontinued operations totaling $1,000,815 as well as a gain on the sale of discontinued operations totaling $2,544,258.
Corporate
Depreciation:
Corporate had Depreciation expenses totaling $6,099 for the year ended December 31, 2014 versus $34,364 for the corresponding period in 2013. The decrease is due to the disposal of selected fixed assets as we downsized our corporate operations.
Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes:
Loss from Continuing Operations Before Taxes totaled $994,773 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to a loss of $1,841,912 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The improvement of $847,139 is primarily due to reductions in SG&A expenses, which included reductions in rent and personnel, as well as due to the fact that, during the year ended December 31, 2013, we impaired all of our Goodwill recording a charge of $554,986.
Net Loss:
Net Loss totaled $994,773 for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $1,805,472 for the corresponding period in the prior year. The Net Loss improvement of $810,699 is due to the elimination of interest expenses at Corporate associated with our discontinued operations which was offset, to some extent, by the aforementioned increases in SG&A expenses related to the buildout of our TinyDial mobile application.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2014, we had negative working capital totaling $621,825 including cash of $70,746. Approximately $233,188 of our negative working capital relates directly to amounts owed for accrued bonuses and accrued interest.
- 8 -
The Company’s only secured debt is the note payable to the Company’s CEO, Scott Beck (the “CEO Note”). On December 31, 2014, the Company did not make its regularly scheduled payment totaling $12,746 to Scott N. Beck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, which constituted an event of default under the Company’s lone senior secured note. Mr. Beck did not call default but there can be no assurance that, as the Company’s senior secured lender, he will not do so. It is anticipated that the Company will amend the note with Mr. Beck at some future point but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in amending the terms of Mr. Beck’s senior secured note. Should we be unsuccessful in executing an amendment or an extension, Mr. Beck, as the senior secured lender, could move to seize the underlying collateral which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Our investing activity for the year ended December 31, 2014, totaled $2,639 which consisted of acquisitions of fixed assets.
Our financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2014 totaled $7,785 which consisted entirely of payments pursuant to a capital lease.
We have no other bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. There can be no assurance that, going forward, our operations will generate positive operating cash flow.
As previously noted, the Company’s marketing revenues have been adversely impacted by industry forces. The marketing services division has completely exited the for-profit educational lead generation space and continues but has substantially eliminated the customer churn in our search engine optimization and website leasing businesses. The Company cannot be certain how much further its marketing services revenues could deteriorate.
We will most likely need to obtain additional capital in order to further expand our operations. We are currently investigating other financial alternatives, including additional equity financing. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. However, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will become available to us, and if available, that such financing will be on terms acceptable to us.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Company’s management, with the participation of its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2014. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of that date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, were not effective simply due to the fact that the small size of the accounting department could not provide for adequate segregation of duties typically established in larger reporting companies.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Section 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s CEO and the Company’s CFO and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in conformity with U.S. GAAP and include those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
As of December 31, 2014, management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the criteria established by COSO, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2014, as a result of the identification of the material weakness described below.
A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the Company’s internal controls.
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
The Company’s management has identified a material weakness in the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting related to a shortage of resources in the accounting department required to assure appropriate segregation of duties.
- 11 -
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Management’s Remediation Plan
Management determined that a material weakness existed due to an inability to appropriately segregate duties in the Company’s accounting department due to its small size. The Company has included additional reviews to mitigate the size of the accounting department and the overlap of responsibilities. Management believes the foregoing efforts effectively remediate this material weakness but the Company can give no assurance that the additional controls will be effective. As the Company continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation plan described above. We cannot assure you that, as circumstances change, any additional material weakness will not be identified.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
The Company currently has two Directors. The term of each Director expires at the Company’s annual meeting each year. The persons whose names are listed below will serve until the Annual Meeting in 2015 or until his successor has been elected and qualified. Our Board of Directors is not currently divided into classes.
Name of Director |

| Positions with CornerWorld Since |
Scott N. Beck |
| 41 |
| Chief Executive Officer, Chairman and Director, 2007 |
Marc Blumberg |
| 42 |
| Director, 2008 |
Scott N. Beck was appointed Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CWC after founding CWC in 2007. Prior to founding CWC, from 2004 to present, Mr. Beck has served as Chairman and President of Beck Ventures, a venture capital firm that he founded. Prior to founding Beck Ventures, Mr. Beck worked as an Associate Vice-President at JP Morgan Chase and Co’s Lab Morgan where he focused on new business formation and corporate strategy for the bank globally. Prior to joining JP Morgan Chase, Mr. Beck was a member of SG Cowen’s Leveraged Finance Group, where he provided support to clients who access the high yield and leveraged finance capital markets. Preceding SG, Mr. Beck was a senior auditor at Ernst and Young LLP. Mr. Beck received a Masters of Accounting from the Kozmetsky School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin where he completed his B.B.A. Mr. Beck is a member of the Board of Directors of United Texas Bank and is President of Beck Properties Trophy Club. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Beck’s prior experience working as an investment banker on Wall Street with both high-tech and public companies make him uniquely qualified to serve as the Chairman of CornerWorld.

Code of ethics
The Company has not currently adopted a code of ethics.
- 13 -
Director Independence
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB. Accordingly, we are currently subject to the OTCQB continued listing requirements which include, among other things, conducting an annual audit and remaining current with all reporting requirements of the Securities Act of 1934. In determining whether a director or nominee for director should be considered “independent” the board utilizes the definition of independence set forth in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. The Company currently does not have an independent director.
Board Meetings
The Board of Directors held one meeting during the year ended December 31, 2014. Mr. Beck and Mr. Blumberg attended the meeting. Directors receive no compensation for meeting attendance.
Board Committees
We do not have an audit, nominating or compensation committee. Due to the small size of the Board of Directors, at this time we do not intend to establish either an audit committee or a compensation committee of our Board of Directors. When we do ultimately establish these committees, we envision that the audit committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing the services performed by our independent auditors and evaluating our accounting policies and our system of internal controls. The compensation committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing and approving our salary and benefits policies (including stock options) and other compensation of our executive officers. We do not have an audit committee financial expert on our Board because we do not have an audit committee.
Board Structure
Our Board has not chosen to separate the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board in recognition of the fact that our operations are sufficiently limited that such separation would not serve any useful purpose. Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is responsible for setting the strategic direction for our Company and for the day-to-day leadership of our Company, as well as setting the agenda for Board meetings and presiding over meetings of the full Board.
Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process
Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risk and for identifying our risk exposures and communicating such exposures to our Board. Our Board is responsible for designing, implementing and overseeing our risk management processes. The Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but administers this function directly through the Board as a whole. The whole Board considers strategic risks and opportunities and receives reports from its officers regarding risk oversight in their areas of responsibility as necessary. We believe our Board’s leadership structure facilitates the division of risk management oversight responsibilities and enhances the Board’s efficiency in fulfilling its oversight function with respect to different areas of our business risks and our risk mitigation practices.
Communications with the Board of Directors
Stockholders with questions about the Company are encouraged to contact the Company by sending communications to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer at 13101 Preston Road Suite 510, Dallas Texas 75240. If stockholders feel that their questions have not been sufficiently addressed through communications with the Chief Executive Officer, they may communicate with the Board of Directors by sending their communications to the Board of Directors, c/o the Chief Executive Officer at the same address.

IU Investments, LLC is an entity owned by the immediate family members of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The outstanding portion of the Tier 3 Junior Note along with its accrued interest was settled in its entirety on September 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Tier 3 Junior Note had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2014. The Company recorded interest of $0, $26,105 and $57,992 on the Tier 3 Junior Note during the year ended December 31, 2014, the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013, respectively.
On March 30, 2011, the Company entered into a subordinated $1,500,000 promissory note with IU Holdings, LP (“IUH”) (the “Tier 2 Junior Note”). IUH is a partnership whose limited partners include the immediate family members of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Steve Toback, the uncle of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, served as the manager of IU Holdings, GP, LLC, which is the general partner of IUH. The outstanding portion of this note along with its accrued interest was settled in its entirety on September 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Tier 2 Junior Note had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2014.

On March 30, 2011, the Company entered into a subordinated $400,000 promissory note (the “Tier 5 Junior Note”) with Internet University (the “Tier 5 Junior Lender”). The outstanding portion of this note along with its accrued interest was settled in its entirety on September 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Tier 5 Junior Note had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2014. The Company recorded interest expenses of $0, $1,342 and $19,639 on the Tier 5 Junior Note during the year ended December 31, 2014, the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013, respectively.
On March 30, 2011, the Company entered into a subordinated $389,942 promissory note (the “Senior Note”) with Scott N. Beck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Principal under the Tier 7 Junior Note is payable in monthly installments of $12,746 until such point as the Tier 7 Junior Note matures on July 31, 2016. The Company amended this note on September 30, 2014 such that principal payments were deferred until December 31, 2014 and the interest rate was reduced to 6.25%; interest on the outstanding principal amount under the Tier 7 Junior Note is payable at the Company’s choosing.

On December 31, 2014, the Company did not make its regularly scheduled payment totaling $12,746 to Scott N. Beck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the holder of the Senior Note, which constituted an event of default under the Senior Note. Mr. Beck did not call default but there can be no assurance that, as the Company’s Senior Lender, he will not do so. It is anticipated that the Company will amend the Senior Note at some future point but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in amending the terms of the Senior Note. Should we be unsuccessful in executing an amendment or an extension, Mr. Beck, as the senior lender, could move to seize the underlying collateral which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The balance of this note totaled $338,958 at December 31, 2014.
The Company is party to a lease agreement with 13101 Preston Road, LP pursuant to which it leases office space for its corporate headquarters.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of CornerWorld Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013 were audited by other auditors whose report dated August 12, 2013, expressed an un-modified opinion thereon.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014
1. Basis of Presentation
Organization
CornerWorld Corporation (“the Company”, “CornerWorld”, “we”, “our” or “us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada, on November 9, 2004.
The Company is a marketing and telecommunications services company creating opportunities from the increased accessibility of content across mobile, television and internet platforms.
The Company provides marketing services through its subsidiaries Enversa Companies LLC (“Enversa”) and Leadstream LLC, (“Leadstream”) both of which are a Texas limited liability companies. Enversa, the parent company of Leadstream, offers a full menu of services for brand and direct response customer acquisition campaigns, including media buying and planning. It provides customer relationship marketing and interactive services, as well as customer data collection and analysis tools used for planning and targeting client marketing efforts across a network of partner, representative and owned content sites. Enversa identifies qualified leads for advertisers thereby connecting them with potential consumers. Enversa also utilizes a pay-for-performance pricing model which is very appealing to clients because it insures that they are billed solely for campaign performance. Finally, Enversa provides search engine optimization services (“SEO”), domain leasing and website management services on a recurring monthly basis.
The Company provides telecommunications services through its Woodland Holdings Corporation (“Woodland”) subsidiary. Woodland is the parent company of Woodland Wireless Solutions, Ltd. (“Woodland Wireless”), West Michigan Co-Location Services, L.L.C. (“WMCLS”), T2 TV, L.L.C. (“T2 TV”), Phone Services & More, L.L.C., doing business as Visitatel (“PSM”) and T2 Communications, L.L.C. (“T2”). As a provider of Internet and VoIP services, T² is a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC) which delivers leading-edge technology to residential and business customers. Offerings include: phone lines, internet connections, colocation and both long distance and toll-free services. PSM is also a CLEC which holds an FCC 214 License as a wholesale long distance service provider to the carrier community and large commercial users of transport minutes.
On September 30, 2013 Woodland sold its S Squared, LLC doing business as Ranger Wireless Solutions, LLC (“Ranger”) whose key asset was the patented 611 Roaming ServiceTM from RANGER Wireless Solutions®, which generates revenue by processing approximately 10.2 million calls from roaming wireless customers per year and seamlessly connecting them to their service provider. See Note 3, Discontinued Operations, for more information with respect to the sale of Ranger.
Spinoff
On November 5, 2014, the Company announced that it had signed a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) to merge its interests with another entity. As discussions surrounding the LOI progressed, the Company determined that the most efficient way to effectuate the merger would be to spin-off all of the Company’s operations into Woodland. Accordingly, on March 17, 2015, Woodland filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 with the SEC. In addition, on March 17, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the spin-off to become effective immediately preceding the merger proposed pursuant to the LOI.
Change in Fiscal Year
The Company’s year-end is December 31. On April 29, 2014, the Company announced that it was changing its fiscal year end from April 30 to December 31. Accordingly, this transitional report on form 10-K details the Company’s accounts as of December 31, 2013 and its results of operations, cash flow and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the eight-month period then ended as well as its accounts as of April 30, 2013, the last date the Company was audited, and its results of operations, cash flow and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the two years then ended. Moving forward, the Company will report its accounts on a more standard calendar reporting basis filing quarterly reports as of March 31, June 30 and September 30 each year and an annual report as of December 31 of each future year. See Note 13, Transition Period Comparative Data (unaudited), for more information with respect to our change in fiscal year end.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
December 31, 2014
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements are stated in United States of America dollars.
Receivables
Accounts receivable include uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30-60 days from invoice date. Payments of accounts receivable are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoices.
The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected based on historical collection trends. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $80,790 and $44,574 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC No. 850 requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amount of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts receivable-related party, accounts payable, accounts payable-related party and accrued liabilities approximate their estimated fair values due to their short-term maturities. Notes payable are carried at their face value net of their issuance costs which management believes is a reasonable approximation for their fair value. Warrants with put features are carried at their minimum cash put value discounted for the time value of money. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these consolidated financial statements.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC No. 740 which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting of income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
In accordance with ASC 260, basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share, if any, is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is adjusted for the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities were exercised or converted into common stock.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” as revised by SAB 104. As such, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title transfer has occurred, the price is fixed or readily determinable and collectability is probable. Sales are recorded net of sales discounts.
At Enversa, revenue is recognized along with the related cost of revenue as leads are delivered. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Amounts billed to clients in advance of delivery of leads are classified under current liabilities as deferred revenue. In addition, revenue is recognized monthly as SEO services are provided or in the form of revenues from domain leases.

For Woodland, the majority of revenue is derived from month-to-month, bundled service contracts for the phone and internet services used by each customer. Revenue is recognized as the services are provided.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three (3) months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method as follows:
Computer equipment | 3 years |
Office furniture | 5 years |
Computer software packages | 3 years |
Capitalized software development | 3 years |
Leasehold improvements | 3 years |
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in operations. Management periodically reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment for impairment. The property and equipment had not incurred any impairment loss at December 31, 2014.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360. The Company’s primary long-lived assets are property and equipment. ASC 360 requires a company to assess the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable from estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. Management reviews its long-lived assets annually and concluded that, as of April 30, 2013, due to negative cash flows and the continuing deterioration of market conditions in the for-profit education space, the goodwill associated with Enversa had become permanently impaired. Accordingly, the Company recorded a charge to earnings totaling $554,986 to impair Enversa’s goodwill for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for awards made under its two stock-based compensation plans pursuant to the fair value provisions of ASC No. 718. ASC No. 718 requires the recognition of stock-based compensation expense, using a fair-value based method, for costs related to all share-based payments including stock options. ASC No. 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC No. 718 and estimates its fair value based on using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
F-9
CornerWorld Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
December 31, 2014
The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards is made as of their respective dates of grant using that option pricing model and is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as a number of subjective assumptions. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behavior. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate selected to value any particular grant is based on the U.S. Treasury rate that corresponds to the pricing term of the grant effective as of the date of the grant. The expected volatility is based on comparable companies. These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock based compensation expense in future periods. The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the value of traded options that have no vesting or hedging restrictions and are fully transferable. Because the Company’s options have certain characteristics that are significantly different from traded options, the existing valuation models may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of the Company’s options. Although the fair value of the Company’s options is determined in accordance with ASC No. 718 using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction. The calculated compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the options. See also Note 8 Stock Based Compensation, for more details.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CornerWorld Corporation, its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities determined to meet the definition of Variable Interest Entities. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Concentrations of Cash and Cash Equivalents
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) currently insures accounts at each institution for up to $250,000. At times, cash balances may exceed the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000. At December 31, 2014 and 2013 the Company had $0 and $476,000, respectively, in excess of that which is insured by the FDIC.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There were various accounting standards and interpretations issued during the year ended December 31, 2014, none of which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operations, or cash flows.
Issuance of Stock for Non-Cash Consideration
All issuances of the Company’s stock for non-cash consideration have been assigned a dollar amount equaling either the market value of the shares issued or the value of consideration received, whichever is more readily determinable.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year accounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
3. Discontinued Operations
We completed the sale of our Ranger business on September 30, 2013 for $7.5 million in cash plus a contingent receivable for $800,000 which we collected in November 2013; we recognized a gain of $2,788,543 on the sale, net of tax. The decision to sell Ranger allowed us to retire substantially all of our secured debt, including debt with loan covenants for which we were previously not in compliance. Our Ranger operations, previously reported within the Communications Services segment, have been reclassified as discontinued operations in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the operations up to the date of sale for the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013. In addition, all secured debt retired as a result of the divestiture have been reclassified as discontinued operations and interest plus loan discounts from all secured debt, including the Company’s put warrants, directly paid off as a result of the divestiture of Ranger, was allocated to discontinued operations for all periods presented. Finally, the Company’s patent and all of its goodwill, as of April 30, 2013 were part of the assets divested while all revenues related to the Company’s customer concentrations as of December 31, 2013 and April 30, 2013 were also part of the discontinued operations.

As previously noted, on September 30, 2013, the Company sold 100% of the outstanding membership interests of Ranger. By executing the sale of Ranger, the Company was able to payoff substantially all of its secured creditors including reacquiring the common stock purchase warrants originally issued to the Senior Lender (the “Warrants”), pursuant to which the Senior Lender could have purchased up to 8,762,008 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate price of $100. The Warrants were not exercisable prior to March 30, 2014 but were being carried as a liability due to the fact that they could be put to the Company for $1,000,000 on March 30, 2014. In addition to retiring the Warrants and the notes payable to the Senior Lender, unamortized loan fees of $396,913 were written off as a result of the sale of Ranger and the subsequent retirement of substantially all secured payables.

Substantially all of the Company’s secured notes payable were also paid off as a result of the sale of Ranger. The remaining collateralized note payable, due to the Company’s CEO, contains no restrictive covenants or events of default other than non-payment.
On December 31, 2014, the Company did not make its regularly scheduled payment totaling $12,746 to Scott N. Beck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, which constituted an event of default under the Company’s lone senior secured note. Mr. Beck did not call default but there can be no assurance that, as the Company’s senior secured lender, he will not do so. It is anticipated that the Company will amend the note with Mr. Beck at some future point but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in amending the terms of Mr. Beck’s senior secured note. Should we be unsuccessful in executing an amendment or an extension, Mr. Beck, as the senior secured lender, could move to seize the underlying collateral which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Future minimum principal payments pursuant to the above long term debt agreements are as follows:
As of December 31, 2014 |

6. Leases
The Company leases its facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. The leases expire on various dates through 2016 and provide for minimum monthly rents of approximately $3,500. Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2014, the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013 was approximately $24,137, $138,982 and $283,649, respectively. See also Note 11, Related Party Transactions, for more details.
The Company also has a capital lease on telecom equipment. The lease expires on March 1, 2015 and the Company makes monthly payments of $892 pursuant to the terms of this lease.

8. Stock Based Compensation Plans
Incentive Stock Plan
On August 17, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and implemented the Company’s 2007 Incentive Stock Plan. Under the Incentive Stock Plan, the Company is authorized to issue 4,000,000 shares of its common stock to the Company’s directors, officers, employees, advisors or consultants.
Any Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee of the Company shall become exercisable over a period of no longer than five years, and no less than 20% of the shares covered thereby shall become exercisable annually. 25% of shares vest on the six month anniversary of the date of grant, the Initial Vesting Date, while the remaining options vest annually in 25% increments beginning on the first anniversary of the Initial Vesting Date. The options expire five years from the grant date.
There were 1,925,000 shares outstanding under the Company’s 2007 Incentive Stock Plan as of December 31, 2014.
Stock Compensation Plan
On August 17, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and implemented the Company’s 2007 Stock Compensation Plan. The total number of shares of the Company’s common stock which may be purchased or granted directly by Options, Stock Awards or Warrants under the Compensation Plan shall not exceed 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
Awards granted to a participant of the Company shall become exercisable over a period of no longer than five years, and may vest as determined at the Company’s discretion at the time of grant.
There were 1,625,000 shares outstanding under the Company’s 2007 Stock Compensation Plan as of December 31, 2014.

Stock Compensation Plan | 4,000,000 |
| 2,375,000 |
| 8,000,000 |
| 4,450,000 |
The Company issues awards to employees, qualified consultants and directors that generally vest over time based solely on continued employment or service during the related vesting period and are exercisable over a five to ten year service period. Options are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant.
The fair value of each stock-based award is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on comparable companies. The expected term of options granted subsequent to the adoption ASC 718 is derived using the simplified method as defined in the SEC’s SAB No. 107. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury interest rates in effect at the time of grant. The fair value of options granted was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:
| For the | For the | For the |
| 2014 | 2013 | 2013 |
Expected term (in years) | 5.0 | — | 5.0 |
Expected volatility | 125.0% | —% | 100.0% |

9. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
On October 10, 2013, the Company’s former President, Marc A. Pickren (“Pickren”) filed a lawsuit in Dallas County District Court alleging, among other things, that the Company had wrongfully terminated his employment; Pickren’s suit sought claims approximating $265,000. Pickren’s employment agreement expired on September 15, 2013 and was not renewed. Pickren was removed as President of CornerWorld Corporation on October 4, 2013 though he remained employed as the President of Enversa until October 8, 2013 when he was terminated for cause. The Company settled the lawsuit out of court for an undisclosed amount in August 2014.
From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation matters relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business. While the results of such claims and legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that there are claims or actions, pending or threatened against the Company, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Employment Agreements
On July 28, 2011, the Company’s CornerWorld, Inc. subsidiary entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Beck, its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Beck’s employment agreement has been modified multiple times, most recently as of November 1, 2013. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Beck is paid an annual base salary of $18,000 which adjusted to a base salary of $23,000 effective January 1, 2014. In addition, Mr. Beck is entitled to an annual performance-based cash bonus subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors, a bonus fee of 2% of all equity and debt raised during the time of his contract payable out of proceeds at closing of such equity and/or debt capital transaction, a 3.50% fee for the transaction value of all acquisitions as defined in his employment agreement payable at closing, warrants equal to 3.25% of the equity issued pursuant to any debt and equity raised during the time of his employment agreement, a warrant equal to 3.25% of the transaction value of any equity issued in association with all acquisitions and the greater of 5% of fair market value or $5.0 million buyout fee in the case of a change in control. Mr. Beck’s employment agreement also provides that, if he is terminated without cause prior to the end of the employment agreement, he will be paid the full amount of his base salary for any days remaining in the full ten year term, the Company will purchase all equity instruments held by Mr. Beck and the Company will pay Mr. Beck $5.0 million within six months of his termination. Finally, Mr. Beck will receive 10% of amounts payable to the Company as a result of any patent infringement litigation. Mr. Beck’s employment agreement continues through July 27, 2021.
The Company’s Chief Financial Officer, V. Chase McCrea III, was employed subject to his employment agreement which expired on July 31, 2014 at which time it was not renewed. Mr. McCrea remains an at-will employee of the Company.

IU Investments, LLC is an entity owned by the immediate family members of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The outstanding portion of the Tier 3 Junior Note along with its accrued interest was settled in its entirety on September 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Tier 3 Junior Note had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2014. The Company recorded interest of $0, $26,105 and $57,992 on the Tier3 Junior Note during the year ended December 31, 2014, the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013, respectively.
On March 30, 2011, the Company entered into a subordinated $1,500,000 promissory note with IU Holdings, LP (“IUH”) (the “Tier 2 Junior Note”).

Steve Toback, the uncle of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, served as the manager of IU Holdings, GP, LLC, which is the general partner of IUH. The outstanding portion of this note along with its accrued interest was settled in its entirety on September 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Tier 2 Junior Note had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2014.

The Company recorded interest expenses of $0, $1,342 and $19,639 on the Tier 5 Junior Note during the year ended December 31, 2014, the eight-month period ended December 31, 2013 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013, respectively.
On March 30, 2011, the Company entered into a subordinated $389,942 promissory note (the “Senior Note”) with Scott N. Beck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Principal under the Tier 7 Junior Note is payable in monthly installments of $12,746 until such point as the Tier 7 Junior Note matures on July 31, 2016. The Company amended this note on September 30, 2014 such that principal payments were deferred until December 31, 2014 and the interest rate was reduced to 6.25%; interest on the outstanding principal amount under the Tier 7 Junior Note is payable at the Company’s choosing.

On December 31, 2014, the Company did not make its regularly scheduled payment totaling $12,746 to Scott N. Beck, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the holder of the Senior Note, which constituted an event of default under the Senior Note.

It is anticipated that the Company will amend the Senior Note at some future point but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in amending the terms of the Senior Note. Should we be unsuccessful in executing an amendment or an extension, Mr. Beck, as the senior lender, could move to seize the underlying collateral which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The balance of this note totaled $338,958 at December 31, 2014.
