Item 4.                                 Purpose of Transaction

 

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

 

The information set forth in Item 3 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the holders’ option into Common Stock at an initial conversion rate of 43.63 shares of Common Stock per share of Series A Preferred Stock (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $2.29 per share of Common Stock), subject to customary adjustments as provided in the Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on November 22, 2019, as amended (the “Certificate of Designations”). The Preferred Stock is also subject to mandatory conversion at the election of the Issuer if the closing sales price of the Common Stock of the Issuer equals or exceeds 145% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in a period of 30 consecutive trading days, including the last trading day of such 30 trading day period. The Certificate of Designations contains limitations on the ability of the Issuer and holders of Series A Preferred Stock to effect conversions of shares of Series A Preferred Stock for shares of Common Stock, if after a conversion a holder would beneficially own shares of Common Stock in excess of the “Conversion Cap,” as set forth therein. As of the close of business on February 20, 2020, the TRT Holders (as defined below) collectively beneficially owned a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Conversion Cap.

 

On February 20, 2020, TRT Holdings, Cresta Investments, Cresta Greenwood, and Mr. Rowling (collectively, the “TRT Holders”) entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with the Issuer. The Exchange Agreement provides, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Certificate of Designations, including the Conversion Cap, for the TRT Holders to be able to exchange shares of Series A Preferred Stock for shares of Common Stock in the manner otherwise contemplated by the Certificate of Designations. As of the close of business on February 20, 2020, the TRT Holders had not exchanged or converted any shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock.

 

The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Exchange Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
