ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
As of October 10, 2000, CD Universe, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
eUniverse, Inc. ("CD Universe"), sold all of its assets to CLBL, Inc., a
Connecticut corporation ("CLBL"), for $1,000,000 in the form of a promissory
note, and assumption of certain liabilities related to the business. The
promissory note is payable in installments, without interest, and has a final
maturity date of September 30, 2001. The purchase price was determined through
arms length negotiations between the parties.
Additionally, CLBL has agreed to purchase $500,000 worth of advertising
on the eUniverse Network from eUniverse.
CLBL is a corporation formed by a former eUniverse director, Charles C.
Beilman, to acquire the assets of CD Universe. To secure payments under the
promissory note, Mr. Beilman has placed 825,000 of his shares of eUniverse
common stock into escrow.
<PAGE>
CLBL will assume the lease on the Wallingford, Connecticut facility,
which was maintained by eUniverse to conduct the operations of CD Universe.
Twenty employees of CD Universe will join CLBL. CLBL will continue to operate
through the cduniverse.com web site to sell music CDs, and VHS and DVD movies.
Mr. Beilman's employment with eUniverse ended on July 31, 2000.
Additionally, he resigned his position as a director of eUniverse on September
29, 2000 and was not a director of eUniverse at the time that the Boards of
Directors of eUniverse and CD Universe approved the transaction.
Last year, on April 14, 1999, eUniverse acquired from Charles Beilman,
then the sole shareholder of CD Universe, one hundred percent of the capital
stock of CD Universe for a total consideration of $1,915,000 in cash plus
2,425,000 shares of eUniverse common stock with a fair market value of
$7,275,000. In connection with this transaction, Charles Beilman became an
executive officer and a director of eUniverse.
In connection with the transaction between CD Universe and CLBL, the
Stock Option Agreement between Mr. Beilman and eUniverse dated as of January 26,
2000, as amended, was further amended. In addition to extending the Stock Option
Agreement until March 1, 2001, the amendment provides that eUniverse shall use
its reasonable best efforts, subject to applicable securities laws and
regulations, to assist Mr. Beilman to sell his shares of eUniverse common stock
(the "Shares"). All proceeds received by Mr. Beilman from any sale of the Shares
shall be distributed, as received, as follows: forty percent (40%) of the
proceeds shall be distributed to Mr. Beilman; and sixty percent (60%) of the
proceeds shall be distributed to eUniverse, provided that the proceeds
distributed to eUniverse shall go to offset the $500,000 advertising package
purchased by CLBL from eUniverse and that certain promissory note in the
principal amount of $1 million made by CLBL and secured by a pledge of the
Shares by Mr. Beilman in favor of CD Universe. Proceeds from the sale of Shares
received by eUniverse are to be ratably applied to each of the above
obligations. After the obligations are paid in full, any other proceeds received
from the sale of any Shares shall be distributed to Mr. Beilman. In the event
that the obligations are not fully paid by September 30, 2001, Beilman shall
transfer to eUniverse the number of Shares equal in value to the outstanding
obligations (assuming a purchase price of $1.85 per share) and eUniverse's
rights to receive proceeds from the sale of Shares under the Stock Option
Agreement shall automatically terminate upon receipt of such payment by Mr.
Beilman.
The sale of CD Universe's assets to CLBL represents a major step by
eUniverse to move from selling retail items over the Internet and to work
towards making the eUniverse network of web sites the number one entertainment
destination network on the Internet.
