On August 26, 2015 Cirrus Services LLC (“Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Medici, Inc. (“Medici”), which is a majority owned subsidiary of Overstock.com, Inc. (“Overstock”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Cirrus Asset Purchase Agreement”) dated August 26, 2015 with Cirrus Technologies LLC, a privately-held New Jersey limited liability company (“Seller”).  On August 26, 2015 the transaction also closed, and Buyer acquired all or substantially all of Seller’s assets for a purchase price of approximately $30,300,000, consisting of approximately $11,000,000 in cash and approximately 900,000 shares of Overstock’s common stock valued at approximately $19,300,000.  In connection with the transaction, Overstock entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) dated August 26, 2015 with Joseph Cammarata for the benefit of the members of Seller, who are to receive shares as a result of the transaction. Mr. Cammarata is the sole or majority owner of Seller and each of the other business entities described below, including Pro Securities, LLC, in which Overstock owns a 24.9% interest that it previously purchased from Mr. Cammarata. In connection with the transactions, Overstock increased its equity ownership of Medici to 81.0% by acquiring an additional 5.9% of Medici’s common stock from an entity of which Mr. Cammarata is a 50% owner.

 

In addition, on August 26, 2015 Medici entered into (i) a Membership Purchase Agreement (the “SpeedRoute Purchase Agreement”) dated August 26, 2015, pursuant to which Medici agreed to purchase all of the outstanding membership interests in SpeedRoute LLC, a New York limited liability company (“SpeedRoute”), and (ii) a Membership Purchase Agreement (the “Pro Securities Purchase Agreement”) dated August 26, 2015, pursuant to which Medici agreed to purchase all of the outstanding membership interests not already owned by Medici in Pro Securities, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Pro Securities”), and (iii) a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “TraderField Purchase Agreement”) dated August 26, 2015 pursuant to which Medici agreed to purchase 80% of the outstanding capital stock of TraderField Securities Inc., a New York corporation.  SpeedRoute, Pro Securities and TraderField are each privately-held registered broker dealers, and these acquisitions are subject to conditions, including satisfaction of all applicable regulatory requirements.  The aggregate consideration to be paid for the interests to be acquired in SpeedRoute, Pro Securities and TraderField acquisitions will be shares of Overstock common stock having a market value of approximately $700,000.

 

The Registration Rights Agreement provides that Overstock will file a shelf resale registration statement on Form S-3 for the benefit of the members of Seller who are to receive shares as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Cirrus Asset Purchase Agreement.
