Item 3.
|
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
|
On July 31, 2017, the Master Fund purchased 875,000 Shares from the Issuer in a private placement pursuant to a Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) at a purchase price of $1,750,000. That price included warrants to purchase an additional 875,000 Shares at an exercise price of $2.10 per Share, which warrants were exercisable through July 30, 2022 (the “Warrants”). On January 10, 2018, the Master Fund and the Issuer entered into a First Amendment to Warrant, pursuant to which they agreed to reduce the exercise price of the Warrants to $1.05 per share, in consideration for the Master Fund immediately exercising the Warrants for cash.
The Purchase Agreement also includes liquidated damage provisions that require the Issuer to grant to the Master Fund, as partial liquidated damages for any delay in uplisting the Shares to the NASDAQ Capital Market, which was required to have occurred by December 9, 2017, additional warrants (on substantially similar terms as the Warrants) equal to the Master Fund's pro rata share of 1% of all Warrants sold under the Purchase Agreement, for each day after that date that the Company fails to so uplist (the “Liquidated Damages”). Consequently, also on January 10, 2018, the Master Fund had accrued and received additional Warrants to purchase 271,250 Shares as Liquidated Damages, which the Master Fund immediately exercised for cash at $1.05 per share. The total amount the Master Fund paid for the exercise of all of its Warrants was $1,203,563. The transactions under the First Amendment to Warrant also triggered the anti-dilution provisions of the Purchase Agreement. As a result, on January 10, 2018, the Master Fund also received 20,636 Common Stock.
The Warrants due to the Master Fund as Liquidated Damages continue to accrue and a total of up to 100% of the Warrants may be issued as Liquidated Damages. The Issuer is required to provide those Warrants within five business days after the earlier of (i) when the obligation to provide the Warrant accrues or (ii) the listing of the shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market.
The Master Fund also purchased Shares in the open market for which it paid an aggregate purchase price of $145,890. All amounts paid by the Master Fund as described in this Item 3 were out of its working capital.
Item 4.
|
Purpose of Transaction.
|
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement with the SEC (the “Registration Statement”) within 45 days following the closing of the Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”) to register the resale by the purchasers of the Shares and the Shares issuable under the Warrants (the “Purchasers”) and to cause the Registration Statement to become effective within 120 days following the Closing. The Purchase Agreement also requires the Issuer to apply for listing of the Shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) within 60 days following the Closing and to cause the Shares to be listed on the NASDAQ no later than 120 days after the Closing.
The Issuer also entered into a Board Representation Agreement with PCG, the form of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.2, under which, PGC was granted the right to designate one person to be nominated for election to the Issuer's Board of Directors so long as (i) PGC together with its affiliates beneficially owns at least 4.99% of the Shares, or (ii) PGC together with its affiliates beneficially owns at least 75% of the securities purchased under the Purchase Agreement. PCG has not yet designated such person.
The Reporting Persons acquired the Shares for investment purposes. In the future, depending on general market and economic conditions affecting the Issuer and other relevant factors, the Reporting Persons may purchase additional securities of the Issuer or dispose of some or all of the securities they currently own from time to time in open market transactions, private transactions or otherwise. In pursuing their investment purposes, they may also engage in option, swap or other derivative securities transactions with respect to or otherwise deal in such securities at times, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in the Shares' market price, changes in the Issuer's operations, business strategy or prospects, or from the sale or merger of the Issuer. To evaluate such alternatives, the Reporting Persons routinely will monitor the Issuer's operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive and strategic matters, capital structure and prevailing market conditions, as well as alternative investment opportunities, the Reporting Persons' liquidity requirements and other investment considerations. Consistent with their investment and evaluation criteria, the Reporting Persons may discuss such matters with the Issuer's management, the Board, other stockholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit and other investors.
The Reporting Persons also may propose other changes in the Issuer's operations, governance or capitalization, or one or more of the other actions described in sections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. They also may formulate other plans and take such actions with respect to the Shares.
Item 5.
|
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
|
(a) and (b) The beneficial ownership of the Shares by each Reporting Person at the date hereof is reflected on that Reporting Person's cover page.
(c) O
n August 1, 2018 the Fund and the Partnership made a distribution of 168,093 Shares to its investors for no
consideration.
The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owner of any of the securities reported herein. Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein, except to the extent of that person's pecuniary interest therein.
(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.
|
(e)
|
The Partnership has ceased to be a 5% beneficial owner as of the time of this filing.
|
Item 6.
|
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
|
GP is the general partner of the Master Fund and PGC is the investment adviser of the Master Fund, the Fund and the Partnership pursuant to agreements that provide GP and/or PGC the authority, among other things, to invest their assets in the Shares, to vote and dispose of the Shares and to file this statement on their behalf. Pursuant to such agreements, PGC is entitled to allocations or other compensation based on the Master Fund's realized and unrealized gains. The Master Fund holds the Shares directly, and each of the Fund and the Partnership holds its proportionate share of the Shares indirectly, for the benefit of its investors.
The Reporting Persons have entered into a Joint Filing Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer. The Joint Filing Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Except as set forth herein, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the securities of the Issuer.
