Privacy First, Inc., obtained all of the outstanding shares of SafeData on June 30 by issuing 20,000 shares of common stock having a $1 par value but a $55 fair value. Privacy First incurred $10,000 in stock issuance costs and paid $55,000 to an investment banking firm for its assistance in arranging the combination. In negotiating the final terms of the deal, Privacy First also agrees to pay $80,000 to SafeData's former owners if it achieves certain revenue goals in the next two years.
