On September 13, 2011, the Company signed a Share Purchase Agreement with Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Limited (“Teva”). Under the terms of this agreement, Teva purchased at an initial closing 687,442 shares of the Company’s common stock for $7.5 million and, concurrent with the purchase of the common stock, obtained options to purchase up to an additional $37.5 million of the Company’s common stock. Teva has not exercised any options to purchase additional common stock, and all options have expired.

Contemporaneous with the signing of the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company also signed a Research and Collaboration Agreement and an Exclusive License Option Agreement with Teva. Under the terms of the Research and Collaboration Agreement, the Company carried out a research and development program (“R&D Program”) to develop novel therapeutics for Hepatitis C that target the viral polymerase enzyme involved in replication of the virus. The R&D Program has been concluded. Teva's options to extend the R&D Program or to receive a license to the technology developed by the Company under the R&D Program have expired. The Company retains all rights to the technology.

Accounting Treatment

The Company determined that Teva’s options to purchase additional shares of common stock were freestanding instruments that were required to be classified as liabilities and carried at fair value under the provisions of ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Accordingly, the Company allocated the proceeds from the initial $7.5 million investment between the common stock and the options to purchase additional shares of common stock under the terms outlined in the Share Purchase Agreement. The Company recorded a liability of $4.2 million for the initial fair value of Teva’s options in 2011, and allocated the remainder of the proceeds to common stock issued for $3.1 million, net of transaction costs of $172,000.

The liability representing the fair value of the options was included on the accompanying balance sheets as “Derivative liability” and was required to be remeasured at fair value at each reporting date. The fair value of the options to purchase additional common stock was estimated using a probability-weighted Black-Scholes-Merton model. As of September 30, 2014, all such options had expired and the liability was reduced to zero.

In June 2014, the Company acquired a mortgage note from a bank for $2,626,290 which is collateralized by, among other things, the underlying real estate and related improvements.  The property subject to the mortgage is owned by Daniel Fisher, one of the founders of Biozone, and is currently under lease to MusclePharm.  At September 30, 2014, the carrying amount of the mortgage note receivable was $2,634,019, which consisted of $2,493,264 of principal, $113,218 of interest and $27,158 of fees paid to the selling bank.  The mortgage note has a maturity date of August 1, 2032 and bears an interest rate of 7.24%.  The Company records its mortgage note receivable at the amount advanced to the borrower, which includes the stated principal amount and certain loan origination and commitment fees that are recognized over the term of the mortgage note. Interest income is accrued as earned over the term of the mortgage note. The Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of the note to determine whether it is impaired. The note would be considered to be impaired if, based on current information and events, the Company determined that it was probable that it would be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. If the note were considered to be impaired, the amount of loss would be calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the note’s effective interest rate or to the fair value of the Company’s interest in the underlying collateral, less the cost to sell. No impairment loss has been recognized in connection with the mortgage note receivable.
