Item 3.             Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

            Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on August 25, 2021, Color Up acquired 1,549,324 shares of Common Stock from the Advisor (the “Advisor Shares”), 175,000 shares of Common Stock from the Settlement Trust (as defined below in Item 4) (the “Settlement Trust Shares”), and warrants to purchase 1,702,128 shares of Common Stock (“Warrants”) from the Issuer. Color Up paid the Advisor $11.75 per share for the Advisor Shares and paid the Settlement Trust $11.75 per share for the Settlement Trust Shares. The Warrants are exercisable at $11.75 per share after a "Liquidity Event" as defined in the Warrant Agreement (as defined below in Item 4). Under the Purchase Agreement, Color Up also has the right to acquire at $11.75 per share up to 900,506 shares of Common Stock from the Issuer (the “Company Backstop”) in the event Color Up does not acquire 900,506 shares of Common Stock in the tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.  Color Up intends to commence such Tender Offer as promptly as practicable following the date of this Schedule 13D. See Item 4 for a further description of the Purchase Agreement.

 

            Pursuant to Color Up’s Amended and Restated Operating Agreement, HS3 made a $65 million cash contribution to Color Up in exchange for certain equity interests of Color Up (the “Cash Contribution”). Color Up used certain of the Cash Contribution to purchase the Advisor Shares, the Settlement Trust Shares and the Warrants. Color Up will also use certain of the Cash Contribution to purchase shares of Common Stock validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer and the Company Backstop (if any).

 

Item 4.             Purpose of Transaction

 

Plans for the Issuer

 

As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Persons beneficially own a significant amount of Common Stock and have certain Board designation rights and registration rights as described herein. Color Up also beneficially owns a significant interest in the Operating Partnership, approximately 66%, which will enable it to realize its proportionate benefit of any cash flow to the Operating Partnership.

4

Effective August 25, 2021, Michael V. Shustek resigned from his officer and director positions with the Issuer and its subsidiaries and Chavez became Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer; and Daniel Huberty resigned from his officer position with the Issuer and Hogue became President of the Issuer. Also effective August 25, 2021, in connection with the closing of the Transaction, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the Stockholders’ Agreement (as defined in this Item below), Robert J. Aalberts and John E. Dawson also resigned as directors of the Issuer and Osher, Lorrence T. Kellar, and Damon Jones, each also a Color Up nominee, were elected to fill the vacancies created by their resignations, as further discussed below. The remaining two members of the Board, Danica Holley and Shawn Nelson, are not affiliated with the Reporting Persons. 

 

Subject to the standstill restrictions and restrictions on transfer described herein, the Reporting Persons intend to review the investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may take such actions with respect to investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate. The Reporting Persons may consider the following factors, as well as other factors, when reviewing the investment in the Issuer: the Issuer’s financial position, results and strategic direction, price levels of the Common Stock, conditions in the securities and credit markets and general economic and industry conditions. Future acquisitions or disposition of Common Stock will depend, among other things, on the foregoing standstill restrictions and restrictions on transfer, market and economic conditions, the Reporting Persons’ overall investment strategies and capital availability and applicable regulatory and legal constraints, and there can be no assurance that the Reporting Persons will acquire additional shares of Common Stock. Subject to the standstill restrictions and restrictions on transfer described herein and in addition to the acquisitions of Common Stock described above, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire additional shares of Common Stock through private purchases, market transactions, tender or exchange offers or otherwise on terms and at prices that may be more or less favorable than those set forth in the Purchase Agreement or of the Tender Offer, or, subject to applicable legal restrictions, to dispose of any or all shares of Common Stock acquired by the Reporting Persons.

 

The Reporting Persons initial goals for the Issuer’s business are to turn the Issuer into a profitable company and remediate the Issuer’s loss of its status as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“REIT”). The Reporting Person’s longer-term goals for the Issuer are to pursue acquisitions, an initial public offering of Issuer securities and the listing of Issuer securities on the New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Reporting Persons intend to move the Issuer’s headquarters to Cincinnati, Ohio.

 

            Except as described herein, the Reporting Persons have no present plans, proposals or negotiations that relate to or would result in (1) any extraordinary transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (2) any purchase, sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (3) any material change in the present dividend rate or policy, or indebtedness or capitalization of the Issuer; (4) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer including, but not limited to, any plans or proposals to change the number or the term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board or to change any material term of the employment contract of any executive officer; (5) any other material change in the Issuer's corporate structure or business; (6) any class of equity securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an automated quotations system operated by a national securities association; (7) any class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration under Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; (8) the acquisition or disposition of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer; or (9) any changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or other governing instruments or other actions that could impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Color Up will commence the Tender Offer as promptly as practicable after August 25, 2021 to purchase up to 900,506 shares of Common Stock (the “Offer Amount”), at a price of $11.75 per share. The Issuer has agreed (i) that the Board will recommend that stockholders accept the Tender Offer and (ii) to take all steps necessary to cause any offering memorandum relating to the Tender Offer to be distributed to the Issuer’s stockholders. In the event that the Issuer’s stockholders tender a number of shares of Common Stock less than the Offer Amount, the Issuer shall, at the sole discretion of Color Up, offer to issue and sell to Color Up the Company Backstop such that Color Up may acquire a total number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Offer Amount after giving effect to the Tender Offer and the Company Backstop.  This Schedule 13D does not constitute an offer to tender any securities of the Company.  

 

Stockholders’ Agreement. The Issuer entered into a Stockholders’ Agreement with Color Up on August 25, 2021 (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”). In connection with the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), and as contemplated by the Stockholders’ Agreement, Osher, Lorrence Kellar, Damon Jones, Chavez, and Hogue were designated as nominees to the Board (the “Color Up Nominees”) by Color Up, and the Board nominated Danica Holley as a nominee to the Board (the “Incumbent Nominee,” and, together with the Color Up Nominees, “New Directors”).  Effective upon the closing of the Transaction on August 25, 2021, the number of directors on the Board was increased from four to seven and Osher, Mr. Kellar, Mr. Jones, Chavez, Hogue and Ms. Holley were elected to the Board, joining incumbent director Shawn Nelson (with the Incumbent Nominee, “Incumbent Directors”); the terms of each director expire at the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Issuer to be held in 2021 and when their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Issuer intends to enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with each of the New Directors.

 

Until such time as the Stockholders’ Agreement is terminated, the prior approval of one Incumbent Director and a majority of the Color Up Nominees shall be required for certain transactions, including without limitation (i) any merger or sale of the Issuer or substantially all its assets, (ii) amendments to the Issuer’s charter or bylaws, (iii) the authorization or issuance of any equity securities or any securities convertible into or exercisable for equity securities of the Issuer, (iv) any change in the authorized number of directors of the Board or establishment or abolition of any committee thereof; (v) any incurrence or repayment of indebtedness in an aggregate amount over a certain threshold, (vi) any declaration of dividends, (vii) any appointment or termination of any person as the chief executive officer, president or chief financial officer of the Issuer, (viii) any related party transactions, (ix) any amendment or waiver, or termination of certain provisions, of the Stockholders’ Agreement or (x) any amendment or waiver of the Tax Matters Agreement (as defined in this Item below) or the Warrant Agreement (described below). 

 

  The Stockholders’ Agreement contains certain standstill provisions restricting, subject to the Tender Offer, the Company Backstop and certain customary exclusions, the Reporting Persons from acquiring (or seeking or making any proposal or offer with respect to acquiring) additional shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into Common Stock or any assets of the Issuer. In addition, the Issuer has agreed that in the event the Issuer proposes to issue additional securities, Color Up will have the right to purchase an amount of securities so that its ownership percentage will not be diluted by the issuance of such additional securities.

7

Except for limited circumstances, Color Up is prohibited from selling or transferring its shares of Common Stock until six months following a Liquidity Event (defined as a public offering or a listing of the Common Stock on a national securities exchange). A transfer of any of Color Up’s shares of Common Stock to a Permitted Transferee (defined to include any member of Color Up) is permissible under the Stockholders’ Agreement. Except for the transfer restrictions set forth above, the Stockholders’ Agreement terminates upon a Liquidity Event or written agreement of the parties. 

 

Until a Liquidity Event and subject to certain limited exceptions, Color Up (and its Permitted Transferees) are prohibited from, directly or indirectly, (i) having an ownership interest in, or permitting such party’s name to be used in connection with, any business in any central business district in North America which is primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, investing in, owning, operating or leasing parking lots or parking garages and (ii) soliciting or attempting to solicit any clients or customers of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries for the purpose of diverting their business or service from the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries.

 

            Tax Matters Agreement.On August 25, 2021, the Issuer, the Operating Partnership and Color Up entered into a Tax Matters Agreement (the “Tax Matters Agreement”), pursuant to which the Operating Partnership agreed to indemnify Color Up and certain affiliates and transferees of Color Up (together, “Protected Partners”) against certain adverse tax consequences in connection with (1) (i) a taxable disposition of certain specified properties and (ii) certain dispositions of the Protected Partner’s interest in the Operating Partnership, in each case, prior to the tenth anniversary of the completion of the Transaction (or earlier, if certain conditions are satisfied); and (2) the Operating Partnership’s failure to provide the Protected Partners the opportunity to guarantee a specified amount of debt of the Operating Partnership during the period ending on the tenth anniversary of the completion of the Transaction (or earlier, if certain conditions are satisfied).  In addition, and for so long as the Protected Partners own at least 20% of the OP Units received in the Transaction, the Issuer has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Protected Partners with similar guarantee opportunities.

 

Warrant Agreement. On August 25, 2021, the Issuer entered into a Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) pursuant to which it issued to Color Up warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,702,128 of shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $11.75 per share for an aggregate cash purchase price of up to $20,000,000. Each whole Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof to purchase one whole share of Common Stock at a price of $11.75 per Share (the “Warrant Price”), subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time following a “Liquidity Event,” which is defined as an initial public offering and/or listing of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or the New York Stock Exchange (each, a “Trading Market”). The Warrants expire five years after the date of the Warrant Agreement, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time. The Warrant Agreement provides that if the exercise of the Warrants would require the Issuer to obtain stockholder approval pursuant to any applicable listing standards of the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is listed, the Issuer will, at its discretion, either obtain such stockholder approval or deliver cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of such Warrant. If the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, or decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased or decreased, as applicable, in proportion to such increase or decrease, as applicable, in outstanding shares of Common Stock. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as described above, the Warrant Price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter. The Warrant Agreement further provides that, in lieu of issuing fractional shares, the Issuer will make a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) of one share of Common Stock multiplied by such fraction.

8

Registration Rights Agreement; Termination Agreement. On August 25, 2021, the Issuer terminated its registration rights agreement dated as of March 29, 2019, and entered into a separate registration rights agreement with Color Up (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer granted the Holders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) certain registration rights with respect to the Registrable Securities (as defined below) of the Issuer. Among other things, the Registration Rights Agreement requires the Issuer to register (i) the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (ii) shares of Common Stock, if any, issued upon the redemption of OP Units purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (iii) shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Tender Offer, (iv) shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, (v) the Warrants and (vi) any additional securities issued or issuable as a dividend or distribution on, in exchange for, or otherwise in respect of, such shares of Common Stock and OP Units (including as a result of combinations, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, reorganizations, stock splits or otherwise) (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”). The Holders are entitled to make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of all or part of their Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Issuer will not be required to file a registration statement prior to (x) 180 days after the initial listing of the Registrable Securities on a national securities exchange or (y) the expiration of any other lock-up period imposed with respect to the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement. In addition, the Holders will be entitled to “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to any registration statements filed by the Issuer. The Issuer will bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statement.

 

Employment Agreements.

Agreements Related to the Reporting Persons’ OP Units

 

The following is a summary of certain provisions of agreements entered into in connection with the Reporting Persons’ ownership of Issuer OP Units. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each of the respective agreements filed as Exhibits to this Schedule 13D, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. 

 

Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement. On August 25, 2021, in connection with the Closing, the Issuer entered into an amended and restated agreement of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership to facilitate the transactions described above. In connection with the Closing, the Operating Partnership converted from a Delaware limited partnership to a Maryland limited partnership. Effective August 25, 2021, Color Up contributed to the Operating Partnership (a) cash consideration of $33,543,000, (b) certain technology and (c) the Contributed Interests, which hold properties located in Cincinnati, Ohio and Chicago, Illinois.  The Contributed Interests include the parking garage owned by 322 Streeter Holdco LLC (“322 Streeter”), the parking garage owned by 1W7 Carpark, LLC (“1 W 7th”) and the parking garage owned by 222 W 7th Holdco, LLC (“222 W 7th”). The Acquired Properties consist of high-quality parking assets totaling approximately 1,201,000 square feet. In exchange for the cash consideration, the transfer of technology and the Contributed Interests, the Operating Partnership issued 7,323,101 newly-issued OP Units to Color Up. 

 

The Issuer and the Operating Partnership have also issued additional OP Units to Color Up for certain of the Issuer’s costs that (a) were paid after December 31, 2020 and (b) were required to be paid by the Company in connection with the Transaction (collectively, the “Restricted Payables”). The Operating Partnership issued to Color Up additional OP Units for no additional consideration in an amount equal to (i) with respect to the portion of any Restricted Payables greater than $10,000,000 but less than or equal to $15,000,000, 7.00% of the amount of such portion divided by $11.75, rounded to the nearest whole unit and (ii) with respect to any portion of the Restricted Payables in excess of $15,000,000, the amount of such portion, plus 7.00% of such portion, divided by $11.75, rounded to the nearest whole unit. As a result of the Restricted Payables outstanding at Closing, Color Up was issued an additional 27,373 OP Units.

The Purchase Agreement further provided that if the Closing had not occurred on or before June 1, 2021, Color Up would, upon written request of the Issuer, provide an unsecured line of credit to the Issuer in an aggregate principal amount of up to $400,000 per month, at an interest rate equal to 7.0%, the full amount of which shall accrue immediately upon funding, with a term extending through the earlier of (i) the closing date and (ii) December 31, 2021; provided that the total principal amount outstanding shall not exceed $2,000,000 (collectively, the “Loan”). At the Closing, the outstanding principal balance and any unpaid accrued interest under the Loan (the “Outstanding Balance”) was $1,284,000 and was automatically converted into OP Units at a conversion price equal to the quotient of the Outstanding Balance divided by $11.75, rounded to the nearest whole unit, or 109,277 OP Units issued to Color Up.

 

In addition, the Issuer terminated certain third party contracts on terms acceptable to Color Up and Color Up advanced $257,000 to the Issuer related to such terminations (the “Advance”). At Closing, Color Up was issued an additional 21,872 OP Units with respect to the Advance.

Each advance under the 1 W 7th Loan has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%, and the 1 W 7th Loan matures on December 1, 2021, with no extension option, and requires monthly payments of interest on the then-outstanding principal balance plus monthly principal reduction payments in the amount $18,900.00.

The Issuer’s obligations under each of the Loans are guaranteed by Chavez.

The grant of this exception was conditioned upon the receipt by the Issuer from Color Up and certain of its affiliates of various representations and covenants, confirming, among other things, that neither Color Up nor certain of their affiliates may own, directly or indirectly, more than 4.9% of the interests in a tenant of the Issuer (or Subsidiary of the Company) that comprises more than three percent (3%) of the gross income of the Issuer as determined for purposes of Section 856(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code.  The request also includes representations intended to confirm that the Color Up and certain of its affiliates’ ownership of Common Stock will not cause the Issuer to otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT.
