FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Adaptive Medias, Inc. (the “Company”) to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

 

 

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A is filed for the purpose of amending Part I, Item 3 of the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2015 (the “Annual Report”) to disclose a pending legal proceeding that was inadvertently excluded, of which the Company became aware on February 27, 2015. Except for this correction, there have been no changes in any of the financial or other information contained in the Annual Report.

 

PART I

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report includes forward-looking statements. We have based these statements on our beliefs and assumptions, which we base on information currently available to us. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, our total market opportunity and our business plans and objectives set forth under the sections entitled "Business" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

 

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Our future results and requirements may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and requirements are beyond our control. In addition to the risks and uncertainties discussed in "Business" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," investors should consider those discussed under "Risk Factors."

 

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. We do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in our business, anticipated results of our operations, strategy or planned capital expenditures, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

 

In July 2013, the Company became aware that a default judgment had been entered against Mimvi (now Adaptive Medias, Inc.) in favor of Mario Armando Wilson and against the Company in the amount of $62,141 and the balance has been accruing interest. In 2014, the Company and Mr. Wilson reached a settlement agreement in which the Company granted Mr. Wilson 19,629 unregistered shares of stock and a commitment that the shares will be tradeable on June 3, 2015 at a value of $74,000 with any shortfall being paid in cash.

 

The Company was in an arbitration case entitled  Felix Chan v. Mimvi  (now Adaptive Medias, Inc.) which was proceeding before the American Arbitration Association. On December 12, 2014, the Arbitrator issued an award against the Company in the amount of $348,803 which has been accrued as of December 31, 2014. The Company is exploring options to have the award set-aside or reduced.

 

On September 20, 2013, Eric Rice, a former employee, sued the Company (Rice v. Adaptive Medias, etc., et al., LASC No. LC100816, Van Nuys Superior Court). The complaint alleges that the Company breached Mr. Rice's employment agreement and made misrepresentations when the Company terminated Mr. Rice. The complaint does not specify the amount of alleged damages. The Company denies any breach or misrepresentation, and the Company denies that it owes Mr. Rice anything. The Company has filed a cross-complaint against Mr. Rice for damages and other relief. Discovery is underway.

 

 
 

 

 

On July 29, 2013, Khoi Senderowicz filed a lawsuit against the Company and two other individuals, Andrew Linton and Kasian Franks (Senderowicz v. Franks, etc., et al., Case No. RG13689457, Alameda County Superior Court). The suit alleges breach of leases for real property and damages to real property and seeks $353,894 in alleged damages. The Company has responded to the Complaint and denied all claims and damages.

 

In April of 2014, the Company became aware that a lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of Santa Clara County, California by Amanda Besemer, who was an Advisory Board member of Mimvi from 2010-2012. Ms. Besemer seeks damages equivalent to $400,000 of stock or the cash equivalent of such related to the termination of the Advisory Board role. The Company has responded to the Complaint and denied the allegations. The Company has been informed that the case in Santa Clara has been dismissed and that Ms. Besemer intends to refile the case in Southern California. As yet, the case has not been refiled.

 

On January 27, 2015, the Company became aware of a recent cross-complaint filed by the former CEO of OneScreen. (Patel v. OneScreen, Adaptive Media, Inc and Qayed Shareef) in connection with the Company’s purchase of Media Graph in 2014 . The complaint alleges that the transaction violated the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and that Mr. Shareef made certain statements which cast Mr. Patel in a “false light” in the presence of various employees of the Company. The Company believes it has sufficient defenses against any of the claims in this matter and intends to vigorously defend its position.

 

On February 27, 2015, the Company became aware of a first amended complaint filed by AdOn Network, LLC on February 13, 2015 (AdOn Network, LLC v. OneScreen, Inc., et al., Case No. CGC-14-542878, San Francisco County Superior Court). The complaint alleges that the Company is responsible for the obligations of OneScreen to its creditors as its “successor-in-interest” following the Company’s purchase of OneScreen’s assets in 2014. The Company believes that it has sufficient meritorious defenses to this claim and a demurrer has been filed against the complaint, which will be heard on September 24, 2015. The Company is awaiting production of the underlying materials regarding this claim.

 

The Company does not believe the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
