(Nasdaq: RNWK) today announced the completion of the previously disclosed sale of Rhapsody International, Inc., which does business as Napster, to MelodyVR Group PLC. Effective <span class=\"xn-chron\">December 30, 2020<\/span> and pursuant to the merger agreement between the parties, MelodyVR&#8217;s subsidiary merged with and into Napster, with Napster surviving and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of MelodyVR.

In connection with the sale, RealNetworks received <span class=\"xn-money\">$1.5 million<\/span> on repayment of a note and <span class=\"xn-money\">$10.0 million<\/span> worth of MelodyVR stock in repayment of an outstanding loan; these shares are subject to a 12-month lockup.\u00a0 RealNetworks also received <span class=\"xn-money\">$5.7 million<\/span> in cash and stock proceeds in liquidation preference based on its preferred stock holdings in Napster.\u00a0 In addition, <span class=\"xn-money\">$3.0 million<\/span> will be held in an 18-month indemnity escrow; the residual portion will be paid to RealNetworks after 18 months.<\/p>\n<p>A portion of the proceeds paid to RealNetworks is subject to contingent consideration obligations associated with its <span class=\"xn-chron\">January 2019<\/span> acquisition from <span class=\"xn-person\">Columbus Nova<\/span> of a 42% Napster stake and a <span class=\"xn-money\">$5.0 million<\/span> loan that <span class=\"xn-person\">Columbus Nova<\/span> had made to Napster. As a result of the sale, RealNetworks expects to pay <span class=\"xn-person\">Columbus Nova<\/span> an estimated <span class=\"xn-money\">$4.8 million<\/span> in value, including shares of MelodyVR stock valued at the closing of the Napster sale transaction.<\/p>\n<p>Glaser added, &#8220;I want to thank the Napster leadership team for all of their great work getting us to this point. Moreover, since we will be an ongoing shareholder in the merged company, we wish MelodyVR great success.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About RealNetworks<br \/><\/b>Building on a legacy of digital media expertise and innovation, RealNetworks has created a new generation of products that employ best-in-class artificial intelligence and machine learning to enhance and secure our daily lives.
