Disney Acquisition: In March 2014, Maker Studios was acquired by Disney for $500 million. The offer could have grown to as much as $950 million if various milestones were met. Maker actually turned down a $1.1 billion competing offer from Relativity Media (which eventually went bankrupt). Lisa was one of several co-founders who split the earnings after it had been watered down through a variety of fundraising rounds. It's unclear if they ever earned the milestone payments.
