Investment in Saneron CCEL Therapeutics, Inc. ("Saneron") | Note 3 – Investment in Saneron CCEL Therapeutics, Inc. (“Saneron”) As of August 31, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the Company had an ownership interest of approximately 33% and 34%, respectively, in Saneron, which is accounted for under the equity method. As of August 31, 2014 and November 30, 2013, the net Saneron investment, which includes goodwill of approximately $684,000, is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets at $758,764 and $684,000, respectively. As of August 31, 2014 and November 30, 2013, management reviewed the Saneron investment to determine if there were any indicators that would imply that the investment was impaired. Based on management’s review, there were no indicators of other than temporary impairment and goodwill was not impaired as of August 31, 2014 and November 30, 2013. In October 2013, the Company entered into a Convertible Promissory Note Purchase Agreement with Saneron. Cryo-Cell will loan Saneron in quarterly payments an aggregate amount up to $300,000, subject to certain conditions. The initial loan amount is $150,000 to be paid in four quarterly installments of $37,500 per quarter. If after the initial loan amount, Saneron has made best efforts, satisfactory to Cryo-Cell in its sole discretion, to have started independently or via serving as a sponsor of a clinical trial related to its U-CORD-CELL™ program, then Cryo-Cell agrees to lend Saneron an additional $150,000 through a series of four additional quarterly payments of $37,500. Upon receipt of each quarterly payment, Saneron will deliver a convertible promissory note (“Note”) that matures five years from the date of the Note. Upon maturity of any Note, Saneron will have the option to repay all or a portion of the loan in cash or convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest under the applicable Note(s) into shares of Saneron common stock. The Company has made the four quarterly payments of $37,500 as of August 31, 2014. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2014, the Company recorded equity in losses of Saneron operations of approximately $53,000 and $242,000. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2014, $37,500 and $150,000, respectively, was related to valuation allowances associated with the note entered into as discussed above and $8,500 and $86,000, respectively, related to certain stock and warrant awards in Saneron common stock that were granted by Saneron at below fair value to certain employees, consultants and members of Saneron management who represent owners of Saneron and serve on its board of directors. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2013, the Company recorded equity in losses of Saneron operations of approximately $39,000 and $115,000, respectively, related to certain stock and warrant awards in Saneron common stock that were granted by Saneron at below fair value to certain employees, consultants and members of Saneron management who represent owners of Saneron and serve on its board of directors. The Company will continue to record equity in losses of affiliates related to stock compensation expense as this offsets additional paid-in capital and not the investment balance. During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company repurchased 93,800 common shares that were held by Saneron for $2.60 per share. During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company was also made aware that the remaining 56,300 common shares of Cryo-Cell common stock owned by Saneron were sold by Saneron in prior periods. The Company should have increased the investment in Saneron in those prior periods, which investment amount would have then been reduced each quarter thereafter through our 2011 fiscal year for the Company’s portion of the losses in Saneron. A classification correction was made during the third quarter of fiscal 2014 to reclassify approximately $400,000 from treasury stock to accumulated deficit on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
