Note 7 – Commitments    

 

On September 17, 2021, we signed a multi-year agreement with a business development partner to provide referral and support services to us. The agreement required an advance fee of $1.5 million with $300,000 recorded in other current assets. The advance is being amortized as marketing expenses over five years. As of March 31, 2024, $775,000 has been amortized and the total current and non-current balance is $725,000.  As part of the agreement, we granted a warrant exercisable into 300,000 shares of our common stock, which vested over two years upon achieving certain performance metrics (see Note 10 - Stockholders' Equity).  Additionally, we agreed to pay quarterly support fees upon reaching certain levels of operational activity. In April 2022, we agreed to Amendment No. 2 ("amendment") to the agreement. The amendment replaced the quarterly support fees with a commission on quarterly cumulative programmatic revenue.

 

The amendment also revised the cumulative target media spend and the associated commission.

 

In addition, effective September 26, 2023, Inuvo and the business development partner entered into an Offset Agreement whereby the parties agreed that the commission due to the partner be offset against the outstanding receivable balances due to Inuvo. We offset approximately $960,852 in commissions due to the partner against the outstanding receivable of $642,202. The total amount of commission recognized, net of the $67K commission adjustment per our offset agreement, for the year ended December 31, 2023 was approximately $52K. Commission expense of approximately $17K was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
