Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable. The Amendment No. 1 and Original Statement are herein referred to collectively as the “Original Statement.”

 

Except as otherwise described herein, the information contained in the Original Statement remains in effect. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the respective meanings set forth with respect thereto in the Original Statement.

 

Item 2. Ide ntity and Background

 

No changes.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

No changes.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

No changes, except as set forth below.

 

Stock Purchase Agreement. On August 7, 2024, Michele D. Logan, Ephesians Holdings, and Credit Shelter Trust (the “Sellers”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Tungsten 2024 LLC (“Tungsten”), pursuant to which each Seller has agreed to (i) exchange all of their Class B Common Units for shares of Class A Common Stock (with all of their shares of Class B Common Stock being automatically cancelled for no consideration upon such exchange by operation of the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation) (the “Exchange”), and (ii) sell to Tungsten an aggregate of 16,596,214 shares of Class A Common Stock to be owned by the Sellers immediately following the Exchange for a purchase price of $7.55 per share of Class A Common Stock.

 

Closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”), including the Exchange and subsequent sale of the related shares of Class A Common Stock to Tungsten, is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, which include, among others: (i) the absence of laws, orders or judgments making illegal, prohibiting or otherwise preventing the consummation of such transactions; (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period (and any extension thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; (iii) the operation of the Issuer in the ordinary course of business in all material respects between the date of the Purchase Agreement and the Closing; (iv) the acquisition of a majority of the outstanding Class A Common Stock of the Issuer by Tungsten pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and certain other stock purchase agreements entered into by Tungsten with holders of the Class B Common Units (collectively, the “Share Acquisition”) and no Class B Common Units outstanding as of the Closing; (v) the size of the Issuer’s Board of Directors being increased to eleven, including six directors to be designated by Tungsten, in accordance with that certain letter agreement, dated as of August 7, 2024, entered into between the Issuer and Tungsten in order to establish the terms of and ensure an orderly transition of governance of the Issuer; and (vi) the accuracy of certain representations and warranties, subject to certain customary materiality standards set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and compliance in all material respects with the other party’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement.

 

 

Prior to the Closing, the Sellers have agreed to not sell or otherwise transfer any of their Class B Common Units, or shares of their Class B Common Stock or Class A Common Stock acquired upon the Exchange, subject to certain limited exceptions.

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Sellers, on the one hand, and Tungsten, on the other hand. The Purchase Agreement also provides for certain termination rights, including the right of each party to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Closing has not occurred before November 5, 2024.

 

Amendment to Tax Receivable Agreement

 

Concurrently with entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Persons, the Issuer, and CompoSecure Holdings entered into Amendment No. 1 to Tax Receivable Agreement (the “TRA Amendment”), pursuant to which, among other things, the TRA Parties (as defined therein) have agreed to forego the acceleration of certain payments that may have otherwise been payable to the TRA Parties by the Issuer as a result of the Share Acquisition. The TRA Amendment also provides for an increase in the discount rate applicable to any future early termination payments pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, resulting in a decrease in the amount of any such potential payments that the TRA Parties would otherwise be entitled to receive. The TRA Amendment is contingent upon the Closing and will become effective subject to, and effective upon, the Closing.

 

Termination of Stockholders Agreement

 

Subject to and effective upon the Closing, the Stockholders Agreement by and among the Issuer, Ephesians Holdings, Michele D. Logan, and certain other stockholders of the Issuer named therein, will terminate. Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, Michele D. Logan is entitled to designate one member (the “Logan Designee”) of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. Michele D. Logan is the current Logan Designee. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Ms. Logan submitted her resignation as a member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, which is contingent upon the Closing and will be effective immediately prior thereto.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement and the TRA Amendment are not complete, and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the TRA Amendment which are attached hereto as Exhibit 9 and 10, respectively, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
