INTRODUCTION

 

This Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3, together with the exhibits hereto (this “Schedule 13e-3” or this “Transaction Statement”), is filed by (a) Blue Eagle Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Parent”), (b) Blue Eagle Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Purchaser”), (c) Blue Eagle GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent GP”), (d) Sterling Capital Partners IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Sterling IV LP”), (e) SC Partners IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SCP IV LP”), (f) Sterling Capital Partners IV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sterling IV LLC” and, together with the Purchaser, Parent, Parent GP, Sterling IV LP and SCP IV LP, the “Purchaser Group”), (g) Innotrac Corporation, a Georgia corporation (“Innotrac”), and (h) Scott D. Dorfman (“Mr. Dorfman” and, together with Innotrac and the Purchaser Group, the “Filing Persons”). This Transaction Statement relates to the tender offer by the Purchaser to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Shares”), of Innotrac, at a purchase price of $8.20 per Share (the “Offer Price”), payable net to the seller in cash, without interest and less applicable withholding, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated December 4, 2013 (as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Letter of Transmittal”) (which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the “Offer”).

This Transaction Statement also relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 14, 2013, by and among Parent, Purchaser and Innotrac (as such agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, for the making of the Offer by the Purchaser and further provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement, after the completion of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the Merger (as defined below), including, if required, a vote of Innotrac’s shareholders, the Purchaser will be merged with and into Innotrac, with Innotrac surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding Share (other than Shares held in the treasury of Innotrac or owned by Parent or Purchaser or held by shareholders who properly demand and perfect dissenters’ rights under the Georgia Business Corporation Code) that was not tendered in the Offer will convert into the right to receive from Purchaser the Offer Price per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding tax.

In connection with the Merger Agreement, Mr. Dorfman and related shareholders entered into a Contribution and Support Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2013, with Parent (the “Contribution and Support Agreement”), which is attached as Exhibit (d)(4) to this Transaction Statement. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution and Support Agreement, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are considered to constitute, and Mr. Dorfman, the Purchaser Group and Innotrac are deemed to be engaged in, a “going private” transaction under Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act. Therefore, Mr. Dorfman and the Purchaser Group are required to, among other things, express their reasons for the transactions described in the Offer to Purchase, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO dated December 4, 2013, and their views as to the fairness of the transactions to Innotrac’s unaffiliated stockholders. The Filing Persons make the statements in this Transaction Statement solely for the purpose of complying with the requirements of Rule 13e-3 and related rules under the Exchange Act.

 
 

Concurrently with the filing of this Transaction Statement, Purchaser and Parent are filing a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as may be amended from time to time, the “Schedule TO”) in connection with the Offer and Innotrac is filing a Schedule 14D-9 Solicitation/Recommendation Statement (as may be amended from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”) in connection with the Offer. A copy of the Schedule 14D-9 is attached as Exhibit (a)(2)(A) to this Transaction Statement.
