MIAMI, FL--(Marketwired - Sep 11, 2014) - Apptigo International, Inc. (
"Given that we are actively seeking app concepts for development, Apptigo is approached regularly by people with root ideas and mature concepts, as seemingly everyone has them and is excited to share them with us," noted Casey Cordes, Chairman and CEO of Apptigo. "When this new sporting app concept was brought to us, we recognized immediately that it could be a big winner due to its unique real-world applications, mass audience appeal, and, of course, imaginative creative opportunities. We feel very fortunate to have succeeded in acquiring this concept and have great confidence that our creative dream team can succeed in developing it into a category-killing monster app."
Pursuant to the Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement, Apptigo acquired all rights and title to the concept from its developer, Alexandros Tsiantaridis, a Miami-based luxury brand sales executive. The terms of the agreement provide for Tsiantaridis to be granted a warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. In addition, Tsiantaridis will be entitled to receive a royalty equal to 10% of all net revenues generated by the app once it has been fully developed and released to market by Apptigo. Having relationships and influence with notable contacts in the action sports industry, Tsiantaridis has also agreed to contribute to the ongoing development and global marketing of the app.
"I am very pleased that Apptigo shares my enthusiasm for this sports-related app concept -- particularly given their professional backgrounds and measurable creative experience in bringing to market cutting-edge products, brands and services. I look forward to working in close collaboration with the entire Apptigo team to help them make this concept an enormous commercial success for all of us," said Tsiantardis.
