 As of March 31, 2015, the Company owns 260,000 shares of MusclePharm common stock. The 260,000 shares were part of 600,000 shares originally issued to the Company related to the Company’s sale of assets to MusclePharm that were required to be held in escrow until October 2014 to satisfy any breaches of representations under the Biozone Merger Agreement.  The 600,000 shares received by the Company that were not required to be held in escrow were sold for $5,400,000 in June 2014.  On September 29, 2014, the Company signed a Memo of Understanding in which it agreed to release 90,000 shares of MusclePharm stock out of the original balance of 600,000 shares held in escrow in exchange for a release from all claims which MusclePharm had made concerning assets which it acquired in its purchase of assets from the Company in January 2014. The Company recognized a net loss on the return of these MusclePharm shares of $584,000 in the year ended December 31, 2014.  In October 2014, MusclePharm exercised its right to repurchase 250,000 shares of MusclePharm shares at $10.00 per share.   MusclePharm did not withdraw the portion of its claim that relates to a then pending eviction proceeding (See note 10) and continues to hold in escrow 260,000 shares of its stock pending such time as MusclePharm and the Company can reach a mutually agreeable arrangement with respect to the MusclePharm lease; however, it no longer has the option to repurchase such shares at $10.00 per share.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company owned 260,000 MusclePharm shares which were recorded at their estimated fair value of $993,000.
