VeriFone, Inc. (&#8220;Verifone&#8221;), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of VeriFone Systems, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the &#8220;Purchase Agreement&#8221;) with Curb Technologies, LLC (&#8220;Curb&#8221;), pursuant to which Verifone agreed to sell to Curb certain assets and liabilities of Verifone Taxi Solutions business (&#8220;Taxi Solutions&#8221;) for $30 million in cash, consisting of $22.5 million paid at closing and a $7.5 million deferred payment due 90 days after closing. In addition, in connection with the transaction, Verifone received a 10% equity stake in a limited liability company that is an indirect parent of Curb. The purchase price is subject to upward adjustment based on working capital in certain circumstances. As part of the transaction, Curb received the net working capital assets (other than cash) of Taxi Solutions, which had a carrying value of $8.4 million as of October 31, 2017, and which are primarily comprised of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and accounts payable. Curb also assumed responsibility for the $50.3 million of associated operating lease commitments, and has generally assumed post-closing liabilities related to the business and current liabilities to the extent included in the calculation of net working capital. Verifone will retain certain liabilities incurred prior to closing other than current liabilities included in the calculation of net working capital.</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The transaction closed simultaneously with the signing of the Purchase Agreement. Amos Tamam, the Company&#8217;s former Senior Vice President of Taxi Solutions and founder of Verifone&#8217;s taxi solutions business, provided a portion of the funding in connection with the transaction and acquired an interest in a limited liability company that is an indirect parent of Curb.</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 11, 2017, VeriFone, Inc. ("Verifone"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of VeriFone Systems, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Curb Technologies, LLC ("Curb"), pursuant to which Verifone agreed to sell to Curb certain assets and liabilities of Verifone Taxi Solutions business ("Taxi Solutions") for $30 million in cash, consisting of $22.5 million paid at closing and a $7.5 million deferred payment due 90 days after closing. In addition, in connection with the transaction, Verifone received a 10% equity stake in a limited liability company that is an indirect parent of Curb. The purchase price is subject to upward adjustment based on working capital in certain circumstances. As part of the transaction, Curb received the net working capital assets (other than cash) of Taxi Solutions, which had a carrying value of $8.4 million as of October 31, 2017, and which are primarily comprised of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and accounts payable. Curb also assumed responsibility for the $50.3 million of associated operating lease commitments, and has generally assumed post-closing liabilities related to the business and current liabilities to the extent included in the calculation of net working capital. Verifone will retain certain liabilities incurred prior to closing other than current liabilities included in the calculation of net working capital.
The transaction closed simultaneously with the signing of the Purchase Agreement. Amos Tamam, the Company's former Senior Vice President of Taxi Solutions and founder of Verifone's taxi solutions business, provided a portion of the funding in connection with the transaction and acquired an interest in a limited liability company that is an indirect parent of Curb.
