PART I

 

ITEM 1. Description of Business

 

Business

 

Present Business

 

On July 2, 2007, International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc. (“IPL Group” or “the Company”) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, YesRx.com (“YesRx”) acquired all the outstanding shares of H&H Glass, Inc. (“H&H Glass” or “H&H”). H&H Glass is a glass importer that supplies custom products such as perfume bottles and food condiment bottles, plus provides complementary services such as container design and mold making. H&H Glass imports glass containers from Asia and distributes to North America. H&H Glass acquires its products mainly from 3 to 5 suppliers in China and Taiwan and sells its products through several distributors in the United States and Canada who service small to medium sized customers. H&H imports in excess of 1,000 shipping containers of glass a year. Depending on the size of the product, a container can contain anywhere from 3,000 to 300,000 pieces.

 

History

 

International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was originally incorporated as Interactive Medical Technologies, Ltd., on June 2, 1986 in the state of Delaware. On April 17, 2008, IPL Group converted from a Delaware corporation to a Nevada Corporation.

 

Effective February 3, 1998, Interactive Medical Technologies, Ltd., changed its name to Kaire Holdings Incorporated, and effective May 28, 2008 its name changed from Kaire Holdings Incorporated to International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc.

 

On January 23, 2007, IPL Group and its wholly-owned subsidiary, YesRx.com, executed a Letter of Intent whereby YesRx.com would acquire all of the outstanding stock of H&H Glass Corporation, an Illinois corporation. H&H Glass was formed in 1989. As part of this transaction, on February 4, 2007, IPL Group discontinued its pharmacy business, and Effective Health, Inc., was shut down.

 

Acquisition of H&H Glass

 

On July 2, 2007, an Agreement and Plan of Merger was executed between IPL Group, its wholly-owned subsidiary YesRx.com, and H&H Glass, whereby YesRx.com acquired all of the outstanding stock of H&H Glass Corporation, an Illinois corporation in exchange for 3,915,000 shares of IPL Group’s common stock representing 87% of IPL Group’s outstanding stock. As part of the merger agreement, 225,000 shares were issued to Naccarato and Associates related to assistance with the merger.

 

As a result of the Merger, there was a change in control of IPL Group. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, H&H Glass was defined as the accounting acquirer. While the transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the transaction results in a reverse merger with a recapitalization of IPL Group’s capital structure.

 

Acquisition of EZ Link Corporation

 

On January 1, 2010, International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc., (“IPL Group Inc.”), acquired a majority interest in EZ Link Holdings, Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on December 18, 2009, which controls EZ Link Corporation (“EZ Link”), a logistics company headquartered in Taiwan. EZ Link was established in July 2003 under the laws of Taiwan, Republic of China. EZ Link Holdings, Ltd. consolidates EZ Link under ASC Topic 810 as it controls EZ Link through a management contract. EZ Link is a full service international freight forwarder, who has current networks to locations in China, Hong Kong, South East Asia, North East Asia, North America, Latin America and Europe.

 

2
 

 

The capital stock of EZ Link Holdings, Ltd. consists of 50,000 authorized shares of common stock, US$1.00 par value, of which 24,500 shares were issued and outstanding and held by Seller (“Shares”). Upon the terms and conditions set forth below, Seller assigned fifty-one percent (51%) of its shares, or 25,500 shares in the aggregate, to Buyer, such that, following such transaction, EZ Link Holdings, was a majority owned subsidiary of Buyer. The parties agreed that 51% ownership of the issued and outstanding shares of EZ Link Holdings, Ltd had an estimated market value of approximately US$857,143 (the “Purchase Price”).

 

(a) A portion of the Purchase Price amount (US$457,143) was paid in common shares of IPL Group, Inc. as of the closing date based on a per share value of US$1.00, or 457,143 shares. Such shares bear the appropriate restrictions.

 

(b) A portion of the Purchase Price amount (US$400,000) was paid in Series B Convertible preferred shares which are convertible into shares of IPL Group, Inc. common shares on a one for one basis. The preferred were valued at US$1.00 per share, and are exercisable pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the purchase agreement.

 

Vend-out of EZ Link Corporation

 

As of February 28, 2015, IPLO’s majority interest in EZ Link Holdings, was sold back to EZ Link Holdings. for the following terms: In exchange for the fifty-one percent (51%) of the EZ Link Corporation Shares, or 688,500 EZ Link Corporate Shares in the aggregate acquired by IPL, EZ Link Corp. will return

(b) an aggregate of 400,000 Series A preferred shares issued on June 30, 2009 to the shareholders or assigns of EZ Link Corp as consideration of acquiring 51% of EZ Link Corporation.

 

Product Liability Insurance

 

We carry product liability insurance through Golden Eagle Insurance Corporation.

 

Competition

 

We do not compete with large glass manufacturing companies because they require very large minimum orders. Other importers are our main competition, which operate on a smaller scale, usually out of their homes and without name recognition. However, they do sometimes have a broader distribution network and warehousing facilities which can cover almost all of the United States and Canada market area. H&H Glass feels its competitive advantage is smaller minimum run requirements, shorter runaround on mold orders at a lower cost, and providing assistance in product design. H&H Glass generally has a longer service history than its competitors.

 

Some of our larger competitors are Owens Illinois, Vitro, Weaton’s and SGB Group (France).

Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

EZ Link Corporation is governed by Taiwan’s Income Tax Law and local income tax laws. Pursuant to the Taiwan Income Tax Law, enterprises are subject to tax at a statutory rate of 17%.

ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Evaluation Date"), were unable to conclude that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

 

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

 

Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving an entity's disclosure objectives. The likelihood of achieving such objectives is affected by limitations inherent in disclosure controls and procedures. These include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures such as simple errors or mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established process.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(f). Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("2013 COSO Framework").

 

A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

Our management concluded we have a material weakness due to lack of segregation of duties. Our size has prevented us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties within our internal control system. There is mainly one person involved in processing of transactions. Therefore, it is difficult to effectively segregate accounting duties. We have hired an additional administrative person and retained an outside professional firm to assist in the separation of duties on an ongoing basis. The use of the outside firm has proven successful in assisting in the separation of duties. However, additional people are not needed to do the administrative workm therefore segregation of duties will continue to be an ongoing weakness.

 

Similarly, the EZ Link operation also has a material weakness due to lack of segregation of duties. Its size has prevented us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties within our internal control system. We have retained an outside professional firm to assist in the separation of duties on an ongoing basis. The use of the outside firm has proven successful in assisting in the separation of duties. However, additional people are not needed to do the administrative work therefore segregation of duties will continue to be an ongoing weakness.

 

Based on this evaluation and because of the material weaknesses, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2014.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management's report on internal control in this annual report.

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income , consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31,2014.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the united States of America.

Nature of Operations

 

On July 2, 2007, International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, YesRx.com (“YesRx”) acquired all the outstanding shares of H&H Glass, Inc. (“H&H Glass” or “H&H”), in exchange for 3,915,000 shares of its common stock in a reverse triangular merger (the “Merger”). H&H Glass is a glass importer that supplies custom products such as perfume bottles and food condiment bottles, plus provides complementary services such as container design and mold making. H&H Glass imports glass containers from Asia and distributes to North America. H&H Glass acquires its products mainly from one supplier in China and Taiwan and sells its products through several distributors in the United States and Canada who service small to medium sized customers. H&H imports in excess of 1,000 shipping containers of glass a year. Depending on the size of the product, a container can contain anywhere from 3,000 to 300,000 pieces.

 

On January 1, 2010, International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc., (“IPL Group Inc.”), acquired a majority interest in EZ Link Holdings, Ltd., company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands which contractually controls EZ Link Corporation (“EZ Link”), a logistics company headquartered in Taiwan.

Divestiture of EZ Link

 

Effective as of February 28, 2015, EZ LINK is acquiring back IPL Group Inc.’s share position in EZ Link in exchange for their share position in IPL Group Inc.

 

International Packaging and Logistics Group, Inc. (“IPL Group Inc.”) (Seller), entered into an agreement with its majority owned subsidiary, EZ LINK Corporation (“EZ LINK”) (Buyer) which is a logistics company headquartered in Taiwan. EZ Link was established in July 2003 under the Company Law of Republic of China. Under this agreement EZ LINK is acquiring back IPL Group Inc.’s share position in EZ Link in exchange for their share position in IPL Group Inc. This transaction is effective as of February 28, 2015.

 

The terms are as follows:

 

IPL Group Inc. will assign its position in EZ LINK or 688,500 shares in the aggregate, to EZ LINK, such that, following such transaction, EZ LINK will no longer be a subsidiary of IPL Group Inc.

 

EZ LINK will assign the following:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IPL Group and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). The Company’s subsidiaries include H&H Glass and 51% of EZ Link Holdings, Ltd. which is now shown in discontinued operations.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Consolidation of variable interest entities

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all majority-owned subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The Company determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity or a variable interest entity (“VIE”). 

 

Voting interest entities are entities that have sufficient equity and provide the equity investors voting rights that give them the power to make significant decisions related to the entity’s operations.  The usual condition for a controlling financial interest in a voting interest entity is ownership of a majority voting interest.  Accordingly, the Company consolidates its majority-owned subsidiary, EZ Link Corp, in which it holds more than 50% of the voting rights or where control is exercised through other contractual rights. 

 

VIEs are entities that lack one or more of the characteristics of a voting interest entity.  Either the entity does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest.  The entity that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is referred to as the primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the VIE.  The Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries are not considered VIEs. 

 

The Company's consolidated financial statements include 100% of the assets, liabilities and earnings of a subsidiary, EZ Link Corp, which is more than 50% owned and control is established.  The ownership interest of the minority owners of the Company’s subsidiary is called noncontrolling interest.

 

The Company has concluded that EZ Link Corp is a VIE and that the Company’s 51% owned subsidiary, EZ Link Holdings, absorbs a majority of the risk of loss from the activities of EZ Link Corp. and enables the Company to receive a majority of its expected residual returns. Accordingly, the Company accounts for EZ Link Corp. as a VIE as of January 1, 2010.

 

The initial measurement of the assets and liabilities of EZ Link Corp. for the purpose of consolidation by the Company is at fair value. EZ Link Holdings, Ltd. has had no other business activities except for the entering into of the exclusive agreements with EZ Link Corp. and its shareholders.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements for the Company, its subsidiaries and the variable interest entity, EZ Link Corp. and EZ Link Corp.’s subsidiary EZ Link International. All significant inter-company transactions and balances between the Company, its subsidiaries and the variable interest entity are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Divestiture of EZ Link

 

Effective as of February 28, 2015, EZ LINK is acquiring back IPL Group Inc.’s share position in EZ Link in exchange for their share position in IPL Group Inc.

 

Country risk

 

As EZ Link Holding, Ltd. principal operations are conducted in Taiwan, it is subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the US. These risks include, among others, risks associated with the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange limitations encountered in Taiwan. The EZ Link Holdings results of operations may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in Taiwan, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, among other things.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

In addition, most of the transactions undertaken in Taiwan are denominated in New Taiwan Dollars (“NTD”), which must be converted into other currencies before remittance out of Taiwan may be considered. Both the conversion of NTD into foreign currencies and the remittance of foreign currencies abroad require the approval of the Taiwan government.  Therefore, it is assumed that there will be limitations of distribution of profits from EZ Link Corp. to EZ Link Holdings.

 

Divestiture of EZ Link

 

Effective as of February 28, 2015, EZ LINK is acquiring back IPL Group Inc.’s share position in EZ Link in exchange for their share position in IPL Group Inc.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include an allowance for doubtful accounts and depreciation of property, plant and equipment.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include amounts invested in a money market account with a financial institution. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes product revenue provided that (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery to the customer has occurred, (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable and (4) collection is reasonably assured.  Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. The price is considered fixed or determinable when it is not subject to refund or adjustments. Outbound shipping and handling charges are included in net sales and cost of goods sold.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value). All inventory consists of finished goods.

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The accounts of the EZ Link were maintained, and its consolidated financial statements were expressed, in NTD. Such consolidated financial statements were translated into USD with NTD as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the consolidated balance sheet dates, stockholders’ equity are translated at the historical rates and the statements of income items were translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments were reported under other comprehensive income in 2013 and earlier periods. In 2014, the EZ Link operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the other comprehensive income previously accumulated has been recognized as income from discontinued operations in 2014, and consequently the foreign currency translation adjustments are eliminated as of December 31, 2014.

 

Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Such amounts were not material during each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

Cash flow from the Company's operations included in the statement of cash flows is calculated based upon the functional currency using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with arithmetical changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheet. No presentation is made that the NTD amounts could have been, or could be, converted into USD at the rates used in translation.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains balances in a Money Market Fund that is not federally insured. Balances in this fund were $404,173 and $783,519 at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. It generally requires no collateral and maintains reserves for potential credit losses on customer accounts, when necessary. As of December 31, 2014, 86.7% of H&H Glass’s Accounts Receivable were attributable to three customers. As of December 31, 2013, 86.0% of H&H Glass’s Accounts Receivable were attributable to three customers.

 

At December 31, 2014 and 2013 H&H Glass had allowance for doubtful reserves of $16,194 and $16,194 respectively.

 

In general the Company will reserve a receivable based one of the following reasons; If the receivable is over 90 days old the company will reserve 50% and if over 12 months old the Company will reserve 100% of the amount.

 

H&H Glass purchased 100% of its glass from one vendor in the twelve- month periods ending December 31, 2014 and 2013.  During the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2014 and 2013, H&H Glass purchased $36,219,076 and $31,534,443 of products from this vendor, respectively. This concentration is due to the relatively small size of H&H Glass’s orders.  H&H Glass’s specialized short-run custom orders generally are not attractive to larger glass manufacturers.  As customer orders have been growing in size, H&H Glass has begun to seek additional suppliers.

Non-controlling Interest

 

The Company accounts for its non-controlling interest of 49% in EZ Link Holdings, Ltd. in the consolidated financial statements classified as a separate component of equity. In addition, net earnings, and components of other comprehensive income are attributed to both the Company and non-controlling interest.

 

Net Earnings/(Loss) per Share

 

Earnings/(loss) per common share is computed on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Basic earnings per share is computed as net loss applicable to common stockholders’ divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through convertible preferred shares, stock options, warrants and other convertible securities when the effect would be dilutive.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company reports and displays comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose consolidated financial statements. The Company’s loss on translation was $17,945 for the year ended December 31, 2013, relating to the translation of financial statements from New Taiwan Dollar to US Dollars.

 

As a result of the divestiture of the EZ Link operations, there was a gain of $34,414 recognized on the income statement for the reclassification of discontinued operations as of December 31, 2014, but this gain does not increase comprehensive income.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Repairs and maintenance that do not extend the useful life of property and equipment are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and its accumulated depreciation are removed, and the resulting profit or loss is reflected in income.

 

 

The estimated service lives of property and equipment are principally as follows:

 

Computers and equipment 3-10 years
Furniture & Fixtures 5-10 years

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for its income taxes using the Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax asset if it is “more likely than not” that the related tax benefits will not be realized.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance ASC Topic 740. Realization of an uncertain income tax position must be estimated as “more likely than not” (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood of receiving a benefit) before it can be recognized in the financial statements. Further, the recognition of tax benefits is required to be recorded in the financial statements to be based on the amount most likely to be realized assuming a review by tax authorities having all relevant information. ASC 740 also clarifies the financial statement classification of tax-related penalties and interest and sets forth new disclosures regarding unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2014, the Company has not recognized any obligation for uncertain tax positions.

 

EZ Link, Corporation is governed by the Taiwan’s Income Tax Law and local income tax laws. Pursuant to the Taiwan Income Tax Law, enterprises are subject to tax at a statutory rate of 17%. The local government

has also provided companies with various incentives to encourage economic development in the region. Such incentives include reduced tax rates and other measures.

 

2. Preferred Stock Transactions

 

The Preferred Shares shall be convertible into common shares in two equal tranches, the first being upon completion and receipt of the year ending December 31, 2010, financials if all of the following performance targets are met by EZ Link:

 

(a) Maintain revenues and before tax earnings same as the prior 12 month period; and

(b) Maintained a positive cash flow from operations over the prior 12 month period.

 

These criteria were not met, so there were no conversions as of December 31, 2014. These certificates will be returned pursuant to the sale of EZ Link back to its original shareholders.

 

The Series A Preferred shares are convertible into common shares on a 1:1 ratio at a fixed rate of $3 per share.  Preferred shares have no voting rights, have no redemption rights and earn no dividends.  Holders of

2. Preferred Stock Transactions - continued

 

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are not permitted to convert their stock into common shares until the Company’s market capital reaches $15,000,000.  Upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company the sum of $0.0001 per share (the “Liquidation Rate”) before any payment or distribution shall be made on any other class of capital stock of the Company ranking junior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

As of January 1, 2010 pursuant to the purchase agreement for 51% ownership in EZ Link Holdings Ltd., approximately 47% of the purchase price amount $400,000 was paid in Series B convertible preferred shares of IPL Group, Inc. at a per share value of $1.00, or 400,000 shares.

 

The Preferred shares are convertible into common shares on a 1:1 ratio at a fixed rate of $1 per share.  Preferred shares have no voting rights, have no redemption rights and earn no dividends.

 

The Series B Preferred Shares shall be convertible into common shares in two equal tranches, the first tranche was to be upon completion and receipt of the year ending December 31, 2010, financials if all of the following performance targets are met by EZ Link:

 

(a) Maintain revenues and before tax earnings same as the prior 12 month period; and

(b) Maintained a positive cash flow from operations over the prior 12 month period.

 

This criteria was not met so there were no conversions as of December 31, 2014.  However, the first tranche will be eligible for conversion again at December 31, 2015. If EZ Link does not reach its performance goals at December 31, 2015, the conversion rights will be extended one additional year.

 

The second tranche of the Preferred Shares shall be convertible after the second 12 month period, i.e. the year ending December 31, 2014, if all of the following performance targets are met by EZ Link:

 

(a) 5% increase in revenues and 1% before tax earnings over the prior 12 month period; and

(b) Maintained a positive cash flow from operations over the prior 12 month period.

 

EZ Link did not reach its performance goals at December 31, 2014, so the conversion rights will be extended one additional year.

 

Divestiture of EZ Link

 

Effective as of February 28, 2015, EZ LINK is acquiring back IPL Group Inc.’s share position in EZ Link in exchange for their share position in IPL Group Inc.

A mandatorily redeemable financial instrument shall be classified as a liability unless the redemption is required to occur only upon the liquidation or termination of the reporting entity.  A financial instrument issued in the form of shares is mandatorily redeemable if it embodies an unconditional obligation requiring the issuer to redeem the instrument by transferring its assets at a specified or determinable date (or dates) or upon an event certain to occur.  A financial instrument that embodies a conditional obligation to redeem the instrument by transferring assets upon an event not certain to occur becomes mandatorily redeemable—and, therefore becomes a liability—if that event occurs, the condition is resolved, or the event becomes certain to occur.

 

The Company determined that the preferred shares are not mandatorily or conditionally redeemable and are properly classified as permanent equity in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
