Positions in shares of Common Stock may be held in margin accounts and may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in such accounts.

On May 10, 2017, Elliott, Elliott International and the Issuer entered into the Nominating Agreement pursuant to which the Reporting Persons have the right to nominate one director for election to the Board subject to Elliott, Elliott International and their affiliates collectively holding at least 8% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock and a second director subject to Elliott, Elliott International and their affiliates collectively holding at least 16% of the outstanding Common Stock.

Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor (i) to increase or decrease their respective positions in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of securities of the Issuer on the open market, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement referenced in Item 6, the exercise of warrants referenced in Item 6 or in private transactions, including through a trading plan created under Rule 10b5-1(c) or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable and/or (ii) to enter into transactions that increase or hedge their economic exposure to the Common Stock without affecting their beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock.
No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein

Item 6. |
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
|
Pursuant to the Investor Purchase Agreement, on May 10, 2017, the Reporting Persons acquired Warrants (the "Warrants") to acquire up to 1,956,345 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $0.01 (527,458 shares of which are currently exercisable and included in Item 5 above). However, the Reporting Persons are prevented from exercising the Warrants to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Reporting Persons would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise to the extent doing so would require the consent of, or notice to, a governmental authority, and such consent or notice has not yet been properly filed, including the ND Insurance Commissioner.
In connection with the Investor Purchase Agreement, on May 10, 2017, the Issuer entered into a Warrant Agreement with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as warrant agent (the "Warrant Agreement"), setting forth the terms of the New Warrants. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, the New Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance and will terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) November 10, 2022 and (ii) five business days following the consummation of a sale of Affinion Holdings or other similar fundamental transaction. Each New Warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at a price equal to $0.01.
The Warrants contain customary provisions for the adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise in the event of the occurrence of any organic dilutive (or anti-dilutive) events, including, but not limited to, splits, combinations, stock dividends and similar transactions, as well as in the event of dividends or distributions in respect of Common Stock to the extent that holders of Warrants are not permitted to participate on an as-exercised basis.
Neither the Warrants, nor the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise thereof, are registered securities, and therefore are subject to restrictions on transfers under securities laws.
Holders of Warrants will be entitled to participate in dividends on an as-exercised basis. Holders will not be entitled to any other rights of holders of Common Stock until, and to the extent, they have validly exercised their Warrants.
The Warrant Agreement is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.2 to this Statement and the foregoing summary of the Warrant Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 99.2.
On March 31, 2017 Elliott and Elliott International entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") in which the Issuer agreed to register certain equity securities under the Securities Act of 1933. The Registration Rights Agreement is attached as Exhibit 99.3 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
On May 22, 2017, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement (the "Joint Filing Agreement") in which the parties agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. The Joint Filing Agreement is attached as Exhibit 99.4 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
