Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 18 have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 18 amends Items 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 as set forth below. This Amendment constitutes an “exit filing” with respect to the Schedule 13D for SPOT and Magnolia.

 

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
   
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
   
  The Reporting Persons used approximately $11,642,000 (including brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to acquire the shares of Class A Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned.
   

  Funds for the purchase of the Class A Common Stock reported herein as beneficially held by Clinton were derived from (i) available working capital of CREL, for the shares of Class A Common Stock held directly by it; (ii) available working capital of GEHC, for the shares of Class A Common Stock held directly by it; (iii) available working capital of CSO, for the shares of Class A Common Stock held directly by it; and (iv) margin borrowings described in the following sentence, for the shares of Class A Common Stock held directly by CREL, CSO and GEHC. Such Class A Common Stock is held by Clinton in commingled margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to Clinton from time to time, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin accounts bear interest at a rate based upon the broker’s call rate from time to time in effect. Because other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Class A Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by Clinton.

 

 
CUSIP No. 961840105SCHEDULE 13D/APage 11 of 16 Pages

 

Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
   
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following:
 
  On September 3, 2014, the Reporting Persons entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the Issuer (the “SPA”). Pursuant to the SPA, the Reporting Persons have agreed to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock in an aggregate amount of approximately $3 million (the “Private Placement”). In addition, the Reporting Persons will also receive warrants to purchase 450,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, which will be exercisable for five years beginning six months and one day from the date of issuance (the “Warrants”), within three business days. The Reporting Persons also received registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the Issuer (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). According to the Issuer, the Private Placement is expected to close in the third or fourth quarter of the Issuer’s current fiscal year.
   
  In connection with the SPA, the Reporting Persons entered into a side letter agreement (the “Side Letter”) with the Issuer, pursuant to which the Board has agreed to appoint a designee of the Reporting Persons, Greg Taxin, to the Board effective October 1, 2014, subject to certain conditions, with a term expiring at the next annual meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders. In addition, the Reporting Persons also entered into a letter agreement with the Issuer (the “Letter Agreement”), in which the Reporting Persons made certain representations in connection with the Private Placement and agreed to certain releases.
   
  The foregoing summaries of the SPA, Warrants, Registration Rights Agreement, Side Letter and Letter Agreement (collectively, the “Transactions”) are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the SPA, Warrants, Registration Rights Agreement, Side Letter and Letter Agreement, forms of which are attached as Exhibit 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26, respectively, to this Schedule 13D and are incorporated by reference herein.
   
  The Reporting Persons engaged in the Transactions because they believe that the Issuer’s new Chief Executive Officer, Edmond Thomas, has proven leadership skills and experience with the Issuer and in the apparel retailing sector that together present a compelling opportunity for the creation of shareholder value. The Reporting Persons took note of the fact that under Mr. Thomas’ prior leadership of the Issuer, as CEO from 2007 to 2011, Mr. Thomas helped the Issuer achieve growth in revenue, profitability, cash and stockholder equity. In addition, Mr. Thomas’ efforts in technology (including with eCommerce and social media) during his prior tenure with the Issuer were recognized by leading publications and industry analysts for their innovation and success.

 

Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
   
Paragraphs (a) – (c) and (e) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
   
  (a) The aggregate number and percentage of shares of Class A Common Stock to which this Schedule 13D relates is 5,907,994 shares of Class A Common Stock (including options to purchase 135,700 shares of Class A Common Stock), constituting approximately 7.0% of the Issuer’s currently outstanding Class A Common Stock. The aggregate number and percentage of shares of Class A Common Stock reported herein are based upon the 84,504,868 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of May 23, 2014, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended May 3, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 28, 2014.
