ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

The Reporting Persons review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and, in connection therewith, have in the past engaged in discussions with management, the Board of Directors, other shareholders, lenders and other persons, regarding, among other things, the extension and modification of debt of the Issuer held by the Reporting Persons and the Issuer’s liquidity, capital resources and financing plans. The Reporting Persons, working with advisors, are presently engaging in discussions with the Issuer, other stockholders, lenders and/or other persons to explore the possibility of making a proposal to effect an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or go-private transaction, restructuring of the Issuer’s debt, or other material changes to the Issuer’s business or corporate and financial structure. To facilitate such discussions, the Reporting Persons have requested confidential information from the Issuer and intend to share confidential information with such parties, in each case pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements.

The Reporting Persons’ evaluation and exploration of a potential transaction proposal is in a preliminary stage. No assurances can be given regarding the terms and details of any proposal, that any proposal will be made by the Reporting Persons or any affiliated person or group, that any proposal made by the Reporting Persons regarding a proposed transaction will be accepted by the Issuer and/or stockholders of the Issuer, that definitive documentation relating to any such transaction will be executed, or that a transaction will be consummated in accordance with that documentation, if at all.

Depending on various factors, including the Issuer’s financial position, strategic direction and competitive position, actions taken by the Board, price levels of the Issuer’s securities, strategic options available to the Issuer, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may take such actions with respect to the investment in the Issuer as the Reporting Persons deem appropriate. These actions may include: (i) proposing or considering an extraordinary transaction with the Issuer as described above; (ii) acquiring additional shares of Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, notes, other securities, or derivative or other instruments that are based upon or relate to securities of the Issuer (collectively, “Securities”) in the open market or otherwise; (iii) disposing of any or all of their Securities in the open market or otherwise; (iv) engaging in hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Securities ;or (v) or one or more of the other actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Although the foregoing reflects the present plans of the Reporting Persons, the foregoing is subject to change at any time, and the Reporting Persons reserve their right to change their plans and intentions with respect to the Issuer and the Securities, including in connection with any of the discussions and evaluations of the Issuer and its business described in this Item 4.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

Paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D, with respect to each Reporting Person, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The responses of each Reporting Person in Paragraphs (a) and (b) of the Schedule 13D, are amended and updated to reflect the information contained in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover page with respect to such Reporting Person in this Amendment No. 3, and such information is incorporated herein by reference.

On April 7, 2024, Issuer and HOF Village Newco, LLC (collectively, the “Borrower”) entered into a formal omnibus extension of certain debt instruments (collectively, “Extended Debt Instruments”), effective March 31, 2024 (“Omnibus Extension”) with CH Capital, IRG, MLF, and JKP Financial, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“JKP 1D;, and together with CH Capital, IRG, MLF, the “Lenders”). The Extended Debt Instruments include the 2020 Term Loan Note and the 2022 Term Loan Note payable to CH Capital described in footnote 4 above, the convertible note payable to IRG described in footnote 5 above, and the convertible note payable to MLF described in footnote 6 above.

Pursuant to the Omnibus Extension, the parties agreed (i) to modify the maturity date for the Extended Debt Instruments from March 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025; (ii) Borrower will pay Lenders an extension fee equal to one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal balance for each of the Extended Debt Instruments, such fee to be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance for each instrument; and (iii) all interest due on the Extended Debt Instruments shall continue to accrue until the extended maturity date at the rates set forth and subject to all other terms and conditions of the respective debt instruments. Since certain of the Extended Debt Instruments are convertible into Common Stock, the capitalization of the extension fee may represent the acquisition of an equity security.

A copy of the Omnibus Extension is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 99.52 hereto. The foregoing description of the Omnibus Extension does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

Except as described in this Item 5 or in Item 3 above, there have been no transactions effected by any Reporting Person in the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock during the preceding 60 days.
