On April 1, 2015, Jamba Juice Company, California corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Jamba, Inc.

The Refranchising Transaction is contingent upon Buyer’s financing arrangements. As part of the Refranchising Transaction, Buyer agreed to complete 21 store refreshes for the Refranchised Stores no later than December 31, 2016, and the Company provided Buyer with rights of first offer for area development rights granted or recaptured by the Company within the markets acquired. The Company is targeting completion and closing of the Refranchising Transaction towards the end of its fiscal second quarter.
