On a quarterly basis, the Company records the greater of the cumulative actual content acquisition costs incurred or the cumulative minimum guarantee based on forecasted usage for the minimum guarantee period. The minimum guarantee period of time is the period that the minimum guarantee relates to, as specified in each agreement, which may be annual or a longer period. The cumulative minimum guarantee, based on forecasted usage, considers factors such as listening hours, revenue, members, and other terms of each agreement that impact the Company’s expected attainment or recoupment of the minimum guarantees based on the relative attribution method.

Legal Proceedings From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings and other matters arising in connection with the conduct of its business activities. Many of these proceedings may be at preliminary stages and/or seek an indeterminate amount of damages. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, except as set forth below, such routine claims and lawsuits are not significant and we do not currently expect them to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity. Also see Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies - Legal Proceedings in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2024. Parent Company Debt The senior credit facility held by the Company’s parent, LiveOne, contains provisions that limit the Company’s operating activities, including covenant relating to the requirement to maintain a certain amount cash at LiveOne of $7.0 million (as was subsequently reduced and maybe adjusted from time to time). If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the senior lender may among other things, terminate its obligations thereunder, accelerate its debt and require LiveOne and/or the Company to repay all amounts thereunder. For example, on October 13, 2022, a judgement was entered in favor of SoundExchange, Inc. (“SX”) against LiveOne and Slacker in the United States District Court Central District of California in the amount of approximately $9.8 million. In February 2023, the parties settled the dispute. LiveOne’s debt agreements with the provider of its senior credit facility contains a covenant that if a material adverse change occurs in its financial condition, or such lender reasonably believes the prospect of payment or performance of their loan is materially impaired, the lender at its option may immediately accelerate its debt and require LiveOne and the Company to repay all outstanding amounts owed thereunder. If for any reason LiveOne fails to comply with the terms of its settlement agreement with SX, its senior credit facility provider may declare an event of default and at its option may immediately accelerate its debt and require LiveOne and the Company to repay all outstanding amounts owed under the senior credit facility, which would materially adversely impact the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition. On September 8, 2023 and effective as of August 22, 2023, LiveOne entered into a new Business Loan Agreement with the senior credit facility provider to convert the senior credit facility into an assets backed loan credit facility, which shall continue to be collateralized by a first lien on all of the assets of LiveOne and its subsidiaries (the “ABL Credit Facility”). The Business Loan Agreement provides LiveOne with borrowing capacity of up to the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Business Loan Agreement). Pursuant to the Business Loan Agreement, the requirement that LiveOne and its related entities shall at all times maintain a certain minimum deposit with the senior credit facility provider was reduced from $7,000,000 to $5,000,000. On January 28, 2025, LiveOne entered into a new Business Loan Agreement (the “2025 Business Loan Agreement”) with the senior lender to update certain terms of the ABL Credit Facility, including to reduce the principal amount outstanding under the promissory note underlying the ABL Credit Facility (the “Promissory Note”) to $3,750,000, reflecting LiveOne’s repayment of $3,250,000 of the ABL Credit Facility as of such date, and to extend the maturity date of the Promissory Note to November 20, 2025. Pursuant to the Change in Terms Agreement, dated as of January 28, 2025 (the “2025 Change in Terms Agreement”), entered into between LiveOne and the senior lender in connection with the 2025 Business Loan Agreement, LiveOne agreed to repay the remaining outstanding principal amount of the Promissory Note in 9 equal monthly payments of $400,000 each beginning February 20, 2025, and the final 10th payment of $151,291.67 on November 20, 2025. Pursuant to the 2025 Business Loan Agreement, the requirement that LiveOne and its related entities shall at all times maintain a certain minimum cash deposit with the senior lender is maintained at $5,000,000. The ABL Credit Facility continues to be collateralized by a first lien on all of the assets of LiveOne and its subsidiaries, including the Company. In August 2023, LiveOne entered into a $1.7 million secured loan with Capchase which accrues interest at 8% and matures 30 months form issuance (the “Capchase Loan”). During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, LiveOne repaid $2.5 million under the ABL Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2024, LiveOne was in compliance with all covenants under the Capchase Loan and the ABL Credit Facility.
