Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Asset Sale

 

On December 2, 2019, the Reporting Person consummated the previously announced sale of all of the issued and outstanding equity of three of the Reporting Person’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Maison Insurance Company (“Maison”), Maison Managers Inc. (“MMI”) and ClaimCor, LLC (“ClaimCor” and, together with Maison and MMI, the “Insurance Companies”), to the Company, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Reporting Person and the Insurance Companies, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand (the “Asset Sale”).

 

As consideration for the Asset Sale, the Company paid the Reporting Person $51.0 million, consisting of $25.5 million in cash and $25.5 million in Common Stock, or 1,773,102 shares of Common Stock. The stock consideration was determined by dividing $25.5 million by the weighted average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market during the 20-trading day period immediately preceding December 2, 2019. In addition, upon the closing of the Asset Sale, $18.0 million of outstanding surplus note obligations payable by Maison to the Reporting Person, plus all accrued but unpaid interest, was repaid to the Reporting Person.

 

The shares of Common Stock issued to the Reporting Person are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and were issued to the Reporting Person in reliance on the registration exemption set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 

The Purchase Agreement is listed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Statement and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Asset Sale, is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the document.


Registration Rights Agreement, Standstill Agreement, Reinsurance Capacity Right of First Refusal Agreement and Investment Advisory Agreement

 

At the closing of the Asset Sale, the Reporting Person and the Company entered into certain agreements, including (i) a Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) a Standstill Agreement, (iii) a Reinsurance Capacity Right of First Refusal Agreement and (iv) an Investment Advisory Agreement.

 

Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has granted the Reporting Person certain customary registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock received by the Reporting Person as partial consideration for the Asset Sale. The agreement requires the Company to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as reasonably practicable following the closing of the Asset Sale, but in any event no later than 15 business days thereafter, and to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Registration Rights Agreement also grants the Reporting Person certain piggyback registration rights. The Reporting Person and the Company have also agreed to indemnify the other party for certain losses arising from the registration of the securities.

 

   
CUSIP No. 31431B10913DPage 5 of 11 Pages

 

The Standstill Agreement imposes certain limitations and restrictions with respect to the voting securities of the Company (including shares of Common Stock) that are owned or held beneficially or of record by the Reporting Person. Under the Standstill Agreement, the Reporting Person has agreed to vote all of the voting securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Reporting Person in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company with respect to any matter that is before the stockholders of the Company for a vote by such stockholders. The Standstill Agreement imposes limitations on the sale of voting securities of the Company held by the Reporting Person and restricts the Reporting Person from taking certain actions as a holder of voting securities of the Company. The term of the Standstill Agreement is five years.

 

The Reinsurance Agreement provides the Reporting Person with a right of first refusal to sell reinsurance coverage to the insurance company subsidiaries of the Company, providing reinsurance on up to 7.5% of any layer in the Company’s catastrophe reinsurance program, subject to the annual reinsurance limit of $15.0 million, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Reinsurance Agreement. All reinsurance sold by the Reporting Person pursuant to the right of first refusal, if any, will be memorialized in an agreement in such form and subject to such terms and conditions as are customary in the property and casualty insurance industry. The Reinsurance Agreement is assignable by the Reporting Person subject to conditions set forth in the agreement. The term of the Reinsurance Agreement is five years.

 

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, Fundamental Global Advisors LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person (“Advisor”), will provide investment advisory services to the Company, including identifying, analyzing and recommending potential investments, advising as to existing investments and investment optimization, recommending investment dispositions, and providing advice regarding macro-economic conditions. In exchange for providing the investment advisory services, the Company will pay Advisor an annual fee of $100,000. FGI Funds Management, LLC will serve as the manager to the Advisor. Both Advisor and FGI Funds Management, LLC are affiliates of Fundamental Global Investors, LLC, the Reporting Person’s largest stockholder. The term of the Investment Advisory Agreement is five years.

 

The Registration Rights Agreement, the Standstill Agreement, the Reinsurance Agreement and the Investment Advisory Agreement are listed as Exhibits 99.2, 99.3, 99.4 and 99.5, respectively, to this Statement and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Standstill Agreement, the Reinsurance Agreement and the Investment Advisory Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the relevant document.
