4. Acquisition

On September 20, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of Personnel Strategies, Inc. ("PSI") pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated September 18, 2013, by and among the Company and PSI, pursuant to which the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of PSI for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000.  The Company concurrently hired PSI's former CEO and committed to pay him an additional $100,000 on each of September 20, 2014 and 2015, contingent upon the former CEO's continued employment on each of those respective dates. Additionally, the former CEO may receive up to an additional $100,000 on each of September 20, 2014 and 2015, provided certain cash flow targets are met. The Company recorded $25,000 of this contingent liability, which is included as a component of accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet at December 31, 2013 and also included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of comprehensive (loss) income for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company acquired PSI in order to expand its networking capabilities and enhance the Company's diversity recruitment offerings by creating networking events that assist corporations in their compliance initiatives while providing diverse professionals with face-to-face time with corporate recruiters.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values. The operating results for PSI are included in the financial statements from the effective date of acquisition of September 20, 2013 and did not have a material impact for the year ended December 31, 2013.
