Item 8.01 Other Events
On December 7, 2004, Bull Run Corporations wholly-owned subsidiary, Host Communications, Inc. (collectively, the Company) completed the sale of the principal assets of the Companys Affinity Events business segment to Crestline Sports, LLC. The assets consisted of primarily equipment, trademarks and other intellectual property associated with the Hoop-It-Up 3-on-3 basketball tour and the 3v3 Soccer Shootout tour. Neither the amount of the aggregate sales proceeds, consisting of cash, a subordinated note issued to the Company by the purchaser, and other consideration, or the net book value of the assets disposed, are considered to be significant to the Companys financial position. Proceeds on the sale received at closing were used to reduce current liabilities.
In August 2004, the Company announced its decision to suspend the Affinity Events business and declared its intent to offer it for sale. Accordingly, the historical operating results and net assets associated with the business segment were reflected as discontinued operations in the Companys consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended August 31, 2004 and 2003, and for all fiscal periods presented in the Companys recently-filed Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended August 31, 2004.
