The Company had guaranteed the lease for Five Star’s New Jersey warehouse. On January 15, 2010, the Company completed the sale to Merit of all the issued and outstanding stock of Five Star. Merit extended the New Jersey warehouse lease, which originally expired in September 2010 through March 2011 at which time the lease expired. Under the terms of the Five Star Stock Purchase Agreement, Merit is responsible for the first $25,000 of repairs and end of lease costs, and the Company is responsible for 75% of the remaining costs. The Company had been in negotiations with Merit regarding an allocation of financial responsibility for repairs to the New Jersey warehouse and end of lease costs. However, on May 17, 2011, Merit and its affiliates filed voluntary Chapter 11 petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of South Carolina. As a result of the Chapter 11 filing, and the inability of the parties to come to an agreement on financial responsibility, the landlord drew down on a $128,000 letter of credit previously provided by GP Strategies Corporation (GP Strategies). GP Strategies had issued the letter of credit to the landlord in exchange for the landlord removing the GP Strategies guarantee for the New Jersey warehouse lease. As a result of the spin off of the Company from GP Strategies in November 2004, the Company had indemnified GP Strategies for any costs related to their guarantee of the Five Star lease, and therefore the Company reimbursed GP Strategies $128,000. The Company has filed a claim with the bankruptcy court, but based on its initial analysis of the Chapter 11 filings believes it is unlikely that it will recover its claim. Therefore, for the year ended December 31, 2011, Company has recorded approximately $135,000 for its estimated share of the costs, which is included in loss from discontinued operations the year ended December 31, 2011.

In connection with its investment in undeveloped property, the Company has certain ownership interests in several dams and related reservoirs located in the State of Connecticut. Under relevant Connecticut law, the Company is responsible for maintaining the safety of these dams. In 2007, the Company was notified by certain landowners adjoining one of the reservoirs that the water level in the reservoir has decreased; allegedly causing harm to such landowners. The Company does not presently know the cause of the decrease in water level. Further, the Company cannot presently determine the extent of its legal liability, if any, with respect to the landowners. The Company has not received any claims with respect to any of the other reservoirs. The Company cannot reasonably estimate at this time the costs which may be incurred with respect to this matter in the future, however the Company has no reason to believe that such costs could be material. No amounts have been provided for this matter in the accompanying financial statements.

On or about December 14, 2011, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of TMG Liquidation Corp on behalf of the estates of debtors created as a result of filing under Chapter 11 by Merit filed an adversary proceeding against the Company with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of South Carolina, seeking to void the sale of Five Star to Meri
t
. Management believes the claim is without merit and the Company intends to vigorously defend this matter.

Related party transactions

a)
|
On November 12, 2004, the Company entered into an agreement to borrow approximately $1,022,000 from Bedford Oak Partners, which is controlled by Harvey P. Eisen, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, and approximately $568,000 from Jerome I. Feldman, who was at the time Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, which was utilized to exercise an option held by the Company to purchase Series B Convertible Preferred shares of Valera (see Note 6). In January 2005, the Company prepaid the loans and all accrued interest in full. As further consideration for making these loans, Bedford Oak Partners and Mr. Feldman became entitled to a portion of the consideration received by the Company on the sale of certain Valera shares. As a result of the acquisition of Valera by Indevus, this obligation related to the sale of Indevus shares by the Company. The November 12, 2004 agreement also provides for Bedford Oak Partners and Mr. Feldman to participate in 50% of the profits earned on 19.51% of shares of Indevus common stock received by the Company upon conversion of the Contingent Rights, if any, at such time as such shares are sold by the Company.
|
|
|
As a result of the consummation of the merger between Indevus and Endo in 2009, the Company has a contingent right to receive from Endo certain cash payments. The two related parties would receive the following portions of the Company’s cash payments upon the occurrence of the following events: (i) $303,000 upon FDA approval of Octreotide and (ii) $202,000 upon FDA approval of Aveed™. The Aveed™ amount would only be payable to the Company and therefore the related parties if there were Octreotide Approval.
|
|
|
As described in Note 6, on November 11, 2011, Endo decided to terminate the development of its Octreotide implant for the treatment of acromegaly. Therefore the Company does not anticipate receiving any contingent cash consideration, since the Aveed™ contingent consideration was contingent upon receiving Octreotide approval.
|

b)
|
In March 2010, the Company paid Bedford Oak Advisors, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Eisen, an aggregate of $150,000 for consulting services rendered through February 28, 2010 by two individuals (together, the “Consultants”), each of whom served as consultants to Bedford Oak Advisors, LLC. Such consulting services included advice on investment company matters and related issues, the evaluation of potential acquisition and business development opportunities for the Company and capital raises and other financings undertaken by the Company (the “Consulting Services”).
|
|
|
As of March 1, 2010, the Consultants terminated their services with Bedford Oak Advisors, LLC and were retained by the Company to provide the Consulting Services to the Company on a month-to-month basis at a rate of $35,000 per month payable to one individual and $25,000 per month payable to the other individual. The Company or either Consultant had the right to terminate the agreement at any time upon thirty days prior written notice to the other party. The agreement with the individual at the rate of $35,000 per month was terminated by the Company as of May 15, 2010 and the agreement with the individual at the rate of $25,000 per month was terminated by the Company as of June 30, 2010. Total expenses incurred by the Company from March 1, 2010 though termination of the services provided by the Consultants are $187,000.
|
|
c)
|
Effective June 1, 2010, the Company relocated its headquarters to the offices of Bedford Oak Advisors, LLC in Mount Kisco, New York. The Company is subleasing a portion of the space and has access to various administrative support services on a month-to-month basis at the rate of approximately $19,700 per month. General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 includes $236,000 and $138,000, respectively, related to the sublease arrangement.

On February 24, 2011, Thomas J. Hayes was appointed Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Mr. Hayes is also a Managing Director of Bedford Oak Advisors, LLC
