9. Shareholders’
Equity
On December
5, 2005, following the execution of a web-site development and services agreement
signed between us and Ocean-7, a software development and Internet company, we agreed
to issue a total of 60,000 shares of our common stock. The shares will be
issued in three equal installments of 20,000 shares each, pursuant to a three tier
schedule, as provided in the agreement. The first 20,000 shares were issued upon the
execution of the agreement and valued at $2.37 per share, or $47,400, which was our
market price at the date of the grant. On May 2, 2007 an additional 20,000 shares were
issued 10 days following the delivery of an internal 80% functional beta site and
valued at $2.25 per share, or $45,000, which was our market price at the date of the
grant. The remaining 20,000 shares were issued on July 31, 2006 following production
release of the website, which were valued at $1.78 per share, or $35,600, which was our
market price at the date of the grant. In addition to the issuance of shares, we
granted Ocean-7 an option to purchase 75,000 shares of our common stock under our
stock option plan, to be vested annually over three years. Both the shares and the
options are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933. Because at the time these shares and options were granted, the service had not
yet been performed by Ocean-7 under the agreement, the value of the shares issued were
accounted for under EITF 00-2, “Accounting for Web Site Development Costs”.
During the year ended December 31, 2006, we capitalized $148,031, related to the
services performed by Ocean-7 during the period. Beginning in the third quarter of 2006
we started amortizing the capitalized web development costs of nextyellow.com, over an
estimated useful life of 3 years. Amortization expenses for the years ended December
31, 2007 and 2006 were $49,344 and $24,672, respectively, which were reflected under
the Web development costs in the consolidated statements of operations. The value of
the options was accounted for under EITF 96-18 “Accounting for equity instruments
that are issued to other than employees for acquiring, or in conjunction with selling,
goods or services.” Ocean-7 is a related party in that its majority shareholder
is on our board of directors.
On October
11, 2006, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock
Agreement”) with Mr. Guy Mushkat, the founder and Chief Executive Officer of
Shopila. Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Agreement, we purchased 80% of the issued
and outstanding common shares of Shopila from him, in consideration for $100,000 in
cash, the issuance of 50,000 restricted shares of our common stock, par value $0.001
(the “Common Stock”), and an option to purchase 50,000 shares of our Common
Stock under our stock option plan with an exercise price equal to the fair market value
at the date of grant. Such options were to vest annually in three equal consecutive
installments, commencing October 11, 2007. In addition, as further provided by the
Stock Agreement, we agreed to replace Mr. Guy Mushkat’s personal guarantees
on Shopila’s liabilities up to, but not to exceed $90,000, in addition the
Company paid acquisition costs in the amount of $7,500. Accordingly the purchase price
was approximately $318,000 including liabilities assumed.

10. Discontinued
Operations
In July of
2007 the Company decided to discontinue Shopila’s operations since Shopila was
struggling financially and facing insufficient operating cash flow. Consequently,
Shopila can not repay its liabilities, including a promissory note and a line of
credit, and thus the Company wrote-off Shopila’s liabilities.
During the
second quarter of 2007, the Company wrote-off its goodwill and other intangible assets
relating to the acquisition of Shopila.
Accordingly,
the Company has reflected Shopila’s operations as a discontinued operation in the
accompanying financial statements. As a result, sales, cost of goods sold, and related
expenses have been reclassified in the statement of operations and are shown separately
as a net amount under the caption income (loss) from discontinued operations for all
periods presented. Accordingly, the Company recorded a loss of discontinued operations
of $260,240 and $55,239 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 includes
income from minority interest in the amount of $66,724 and the write-off of liabilities
in the amount of $114,664 which Shopila does not have the financial ability to pay. Net
sales from the discontinued operations of Shopila were $71,001 and $222,307, for the
years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The write-off of goodwill and
other intangible assets had previously been recognized as an impairment loss in
connection with the filing of the Company’s Form 10QSB for the six month period
ended June 30, 2007. In addition, a previously recorded deferred tax liability related
to other intangible assets in the amount of $67,600, previously recorded as an income
tax benefit in the six month period ended June 30, 2007, has been reclassified in
connection with the discontinued operations.
The Company
on October 11, 2006, had purchased 80% of the issued and outstanding common shares of
Shopila for approximately $318,000, consisting of $100,000 in cash; the issuance of
50,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock and an option to purchase
an additional 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the fair
market value at date of grant and the assumption of certain liabilities.
Until April
20, 2006, our principal business was the publication of bilingual, English, and Hebrew
yellow page directories distributed free through local commercial and retail
establishments in the New York metropolitan area, New Jersey and Florida including a
yellow page directory designed to meet the special needs of the Hasidic and
ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities. On April 20, 2006, we sold our two remaining yellow
page directories to DAG-Jewish Directories, Inc., a buying entity that was established
by a group of sales agency owners and a few of our employees for (i) $291,667 paid in
cash at closing; (ii) a promissory note in the amount of $613,333 payable in 24
consecutive monthly installments of $25,556 each bearing interest, at 5% per annum; and
(iii) the Buyer’s assumption of liabilities relating to the Jewish directories
business in the amount of $3,197,000.
The Company
has reflected its directories businesses as discontinued operations in the accompanying
financial statements for all periods presented. As a result, sales, cost of goods sold,
and related expenses have been reclassified in the statement of operations and are
shown separately as a net amount under the caption income (loss) from discontinued
operations for all periods presented. Accordingly, we recorded a net loss from
discontinued operations of the Jewish Directories totaling $75,129 for the year ended
December 31, 2006. Net revenue from the discontinued operations was $1,370,242, for the
year ended December 31, 2006.
The Company
also recorded a gain on the sale of the Jewish Directories in the amount of $267,360
for the year ended December 31, 2007, which represents installment payments from the
sale of the directories, compared to a gain on the sale of the Jewish directories
business amounting to $692,810 for the year ended December 31, 2006, which includes net
liabilities assumed and payments received, net of professional fees

Employment
Agreements
In March
1999, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Assaf Ran, its president
and chief executive officer. Mr. Ran’s employment term initially renews
automatically for successive one-year periods unless either party gives 180 days
written notice of its intention to terminate the agreement. Under the agreement, Mr.
Ran will receive an annual base salary of $75,000, annual bonuses as determined by the
compensation committee of the Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion,
and is eligible to participate in all executive benefit plans established and
maintained by the Company. Under the agreement, Mr. Ran has also agreed to a one-year
non-competition period following the termination of his employment. As of March 2003
the compensation committee approved an increase in Mr. Ran’s compensation to an
annual base salary of $225,000. On March 15, 2006 the compensation committee approved
Mr. Ran’s reduction of his annual salary by 50% for one year following the
closing of the sale of the Jewish directories business. On March 22, 2007 the
compensation committee approved Mr. Ran’s reduction of his annual salary by 75%
to $56,000 for one year or until the Company has more significant operations (as
defined by the Committee), whichever is earlier. Mr. Ran’s annual compensation
was $69,000 and $148,000 during the years 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Contingencies
In January
2001, Flexible Business Systems, Inc. commenced an action against DAG Media, Inc. and
Dapey Assaf, Ltd., in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Suffolk for
breach of contract, seeking compensation for unpaid invoices pursuant to a written
agreement for computer software. We defended the complaint claiming there was no valid
contract between the parties as the software program did not comport to our needs.
Following a trial, on January 26, 2006, we received a Notice of Entry, finding in favor
of Flexible Business Systems and awarding them the sum of $38,553 plus interest from
January 19, 2001. In April 2006, the plaintiff levied our bank account for the sum of
$58,926, which was ultimately drawn from our bank account in satisfaction of the
judgment. We filed an appeal and the appeal was argued in January 2007 and we await the
court’s decision. This amount is to be paid to us by the purchasers and therefore
is showing on the balance sheet as due from purchasers at December 31, 2007 and
2006.
F - 19
In 2004,
Neopost Leasing, Inc. commenced a collection action against Black Book Photography,
Inc. (“BBP”), a former subsidiary of DAG Media, in the Civil Court of the
State of New York, County of Queens, to recover $15,987 on an equipment lease for a
certain postage meter or similar equipment sold to Brandera.com (USA) Inc., which in
turn sold certain assets to BBP. The equipment was apparently in the office in
Manhattan when BBP purchased the assets of the business from Brandera.com (USA) Inc. on
August 2, 2002. The agreement governing that purchase provided, inter alia, that BBP
would take title to any equipment and would assume “any contracts”. In
connection with the later sale of DAG’s interest in BBP to Modern Holdings, Inc.
it appears that DAG agreed to indemnify Modern as to this claim, and it remains a
contingent liability of DAG’s accordingly. In light of the terms of the contract
between Brandera.com (USA) Inc., there may be full liability on this claim. We have
opposed the motion. We made a provision in the amount of $15,987 as of December 31,
2006, which remains included in accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December
31, 2007. The motion for summary judgment was withdrawn by the plaintiff and thus there
was no decision on the motion. We expect that plaintiff will, at some point, place the
case on the trial calendar.
12. Related Parties
Transactions
DAG
Interactive Inc, our subsidiary is being held 20% by Ocean-7. Mark Alhadeff is the main
shareholder of Ocean-7 and effective December of 2005 is a member of our board of
directors.
On December
5, 2005, following the execution of a web-site development and services agreement
signed between us and Ocean-7, a software development and Internet company, we agreed
to issue a total of 60,000 shares of our common stock. The shares were issued in
three equal installments of 20,000 shares each, pursuant to a three tier schedule, as
provided in the agreement. The first 20,000 shares were issued upon the execution of
the agreement and valued at $2.37 per share, or $47,400, which was our market price at
the date of the grant. On May 2, 2006 an additional 20,000 shares were issued 10 days
following the delivery of an internal 80% functional beta site and valued at $2.25 per
share, or $45,000, which was our market price at the date of the grant. The remaining
20,000 shares were issued on July 31, 2006 following production release of the website,
which were valued at $1.78 per share, or $35,600, which was our market price at the
date of the grant.
General and
Administrative expenses includes approximately $24,600 and $7,180 of software
maintenance fees incurred for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively,
under an agreement with Ocean-7.
13. Subsequent
Event
On January
8, 2008 and February 11, 2008 we purchased 7 days auction rate securities issued by two
different mutual funds in the amount of $450,000 and $725,000, respectively. During the
period from February 18, 2008 through March 11, 2008, auctions for these securities
were not successful. Consequently, we continue to hold these securities and the issuers
have continue to pay interest at the maximum contractual rate.
