Item 3.  Source or Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
On November 20, 2012, Jeffrey B. Zisk acquired shares of Common Stock through a merger of the former SpeedFC Inc. (a Delaware corporation, the “Predecessor SpeedFC”) with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (now named Speed Commerce, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, “Speed”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September 27, 2012, as subsequently amended on October 29, 2012, June 26, 2013, and September 29, 2014 (collectively, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among various parties including the Issuer and Mr. Zisk. On November 20, 2012, all of the holders of shares and options of Predecessor SpeedFC exchanged all of their equity interests for cash and shares of Common Stock in the transaction. In particular and in exchange for all of his ownership, Mr. Zisk, received approximately $10,141,770 in cash and 8,596,923 shares of Common Stock. In addition, two partnerships also received shares in the transaction, of which shares Mr. Zisk is deemed to have beneficial ownership: (i) the Jennifer Kate Partnership, LP received approximately $1,520,143 in cash and 1,281,373 shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the Zisk Family Partnership, LP received approximately $380,036 in cash and 320,343 shares of Common Stock. The shares received in connection with the closing of the merger on November 20, 2012 were valued at $1.4624 per share.
 
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, certain contingent amounts of cash and shares of Common Stock have been issued (and certain cash amounts will continue to be issuable) to all of the holders of shares and options of Predecessor SpeedFC related to the achievement of certain performance metrics by Predecessor SpeedFC for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. Navarre determined that a portion of the first earn-out payment was earned, and on February 26, 2013, Navarre issued a total of an additional approximately $998,788 in cash and 1,770,097 shares of Common Stock to the holders of shares and options of Predecessor SpeedFC. In connection with this earn-out payment: (i) Mr. Zisk received approximately $500,143 in cash and 886,292 shares of Common Stock; (ii) the Jennifer Kate Partnership, LP received approximately $74,203 in cash and 131,518 shares of Common Stock; and (iii) the Zisk Family Partnership, LP received approximately $18,576 in cash and 32,924 shares of Common Stock. Per the terms of the Merger Agreement, the shares of Common Stock received in connection with the first earn-out portion related to the merger were valued at $1.6926 per share.
 
 
 
 

 
 
Pursuant to Amendment No. 2 to the Merger Agreement, which was entered into on June 26, 2013, the parties agreed that Predecessor SpeedFC’s 2012 Adjusted EBITDA was $7,989,512 and, accordingly, the aggregate earn-out payment obligation of Navarre under the Merger Agreement is 2,360,129 shares of Common Stock and $3,994,746 in cash. As such, following the February 26, 2013 earn-out payments discussed above, Navarre’s remaining earn-out obligation under the Merger Agreement was 590,036 shares of Common Stock and $2,995,967 (plus interest of five percent per annum). On July 10, 2013, Navarre issued the remaining 590,036 shares of Common Stock to the holders of shares and options of Predecessor SpeedFC in fulfillment of Navarre’s Common Stock earn-out obligation under the Merger Agreement. In connection with this earn-out payment: (i) Mr. Zisk received 296,719 shares of Common Stock; (ii) the Jennifer Kate Partnership, LP received 44,226 shares of Common Stock; and (iii) the Zisk Family Partnership, LP received 11,056 shares of Common Stock. Per the terms of the Merger Agreement, the shares of Common Stock received in connection with the second earn-out portion related to the merger were valued at $1.6926 per share. The remaining earn-out cash obligation was to be paid in equal quarterly installments beginning October 1, 2013 and ending February 2016.

Amendment No. 3 to the Merger Agreement resolved certain items by reducing the consideration under the Merger Agreement in the aggregate amount of $1,300,000 and by providing mutual releases in connection with certain outstanding claims.

            The description contained in this Item 3 of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, as amended, is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Merger Agreement and its amendments, copies of which are filed, respectively, as Exhibits 7.1 and 7.2 to the Schedule 13D filed by Mr. Zisk on November 30, 2012, Exhibit 2.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 26, 2013, and Exhibit 2.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 3, 2014, and are incorporated by reference into this Amendment.
 
This Amendment No. 4 is being filed to reflect Mr. Zisk’s sales of a total of 3,460,574 shares Common Stock in multiple transactions over the course of a four-day period from April 28, 2015, through May 1, 2015 (the “Open-Market Sales”).
 
Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.
 
(a)-(b) The information contained in Item 3 is incorporated by reference herein. As described in Item 3 above, Mr. Zisk acquired the earn-out shares of Common Stock as a portion of the contingent consideration payable in the merger transaction described above. As part of the consideration and pursuant to the remaining earn-out provisions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Mr. Zisk (and the other equityholders) may receive additional cash from the Issuer. Following the payment of the second earn-out portion, and the Open-Market Sales, Mr. Zisk beneficially owns 7,851,315 shares of Common Stock or 9.93% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (as of May 1, 2015, based upon a total of 79,048,843 outstanding shares of Common Stock as reported in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) on April 16, 2015), including the 590,036 shares issued with the earn-out described herein).
 
 
 
 

 
 
(c) Not applicable.
 
(d) Also as part of the merger, Mr. Zisk was hired to serve as the President of Speed, and he and M. David Bryant were appointed to the Issuer’s Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Mr. Zisk’s employment agreement with the Issuer (the “Employment Agreement”), Messrs. Zisk and Bryant were initially to serve for a one year term, and then be nominated for re-election to the Board at the 2013 Annual Meeting, so as to serve an aggregate term of three years. Additionally, their Board membership remained contingent upon certain employment, non-competition and stock ownership requirements, the violation of which could result in their individual, or in some cases, joint, removal as directors, and with respect to Mr. Zisk, potential termination of his employment. Under the terms of his Employment Agreement, Mr. Zisk was eligible to participate in the Issuer’s Annual Management Incentive Plan, under which he received additional equity compensation.
Mr. Zisk retired as the Issuer’s President of E-Commerce on February 4, 2015, and resigned as a member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors on April 2, 2015.

While all of the Predecessor SpeedFC equityholders, including Messrs. Zisk and Bryant, acquired shares in connection with the merger transaction, Mr. Zisk disclaims membership in a group.

The description contained in this Item 4 of the transactions contemplated by the Employment Agreement is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Employment Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 7.3 to the Schedule 13D filed by Mr. Zisk on November 30, 2012, and is incorporated by reference into this Amendment.
 
(a)-(j) Mr. Zisk intends to continue to evaluate the Issuer's business, prospects and financial condition, the market for the Common Stock, monetary and stock market conditions and other developments.  As a part of such evaluation, Mr. Zisk may participate in meetings or hold discussions with the Issuer's management, other shareholders and other persons in which he may express his views with respect to potential changes in the operations, assets, capital structure or ownership of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value. Such expression of views may relate to one or more of the transactions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Depending upon, among other things, the factors set forth above, Mr. Zisk reserves the right to (i) dispose of all or part of his investment in the Common Stock at any time, (ii) acquire additional shares of Common Stock by tender offer, in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise, (iii) propose a merger or similar business combination with the Issuer or its affiliates, (iv) seek control of the Issuer by stock ownership or otherwise, (v) meet with or engage one or more third parties as advisors or lenders in connection with any of the foregoing, or (vi) take any other action with respect to the Issuer.

Except as set forth in this Item 4, Mr. Zisk has no present plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer that relate to or that would result in any of the transactions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
