Lease Obligations - The Company leases office space under two operating lease agreements. A lease for our former headquarters, was scheduled to expire in 2014 and provided for monthly rent of $4,048. On January 18, 2013, we entered into a sublease agreement for our former headquarters space of approximately 1,870 square feet. The sublease provided $3,000 per month rent and expired on October 31, 2013. In January 2013, we exercised an early termination option clause and, accordingly, that lease expired in October 2013. The Company paid a lease termination fee of $13,090 in connection with the exercise of the early termination clause.

 On December 16, 2012 the Company entered into a separate operating lease agreement commencing on January 1, 2013 to lease 4,600 square feet of office space which became our new headquarters. The lease expires on June 30, 2015 and provides for monthly rent of $4,064 for the first 10 months and $6,386 per month for the remaining 20 months of the lease.  The Company also leases approximately 1,900 square feet of office space for its events business in Minnesota. The lease provides for monthly rental payments of $2,551 and is scheduled to expire on September 30, 2014.
 
Rent expense, amounting to $76,000 and $43,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in general and administrative expense in the statements of comprehensive (loss) income.

Employment Agreements - On March 5, 2013, the Company entered into two employment agreements with the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Executive of the iHispano.com division (the "Executives").  The agreements were for a one year period and required annual base salaries of $200,000 and an annual bonus as determined by the Compensation Committee.  In the event that either of the Executives are terminated without cause (as defined in the employment agreement) but not due to death or disability, the company will pay as severance continued salary for six (6) months to the terminated executive upon delivery of a release of claims against the company. No severance payment will be paid if termination is for cause or if the executive resigns. During each named Executive's employment and for two (2) years thereafter, each Executive will agree not to disclose confidential information and will be subject to restrictions on competing or interfering with our business and business relationships and soliciting the services of our employees or independent contractors.  Both of these contracts expired March 5, 2014 and the Executives continue to be compensated under the same terms as stated in the contract until new agreements are in place.
