Item 4 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended as follows:
As previously disclosed in the Statement on February 24, 2012 (the “Effective Date”), Holdings II entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) with Partners for Growth III, L.P. (“PFG”), pursuant to which Holdings II purchased $7,650,000 aggregate principal amount of, or 51% of PFG’s interest in, the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the “Senior Convertible Note”). Holdings II paid PFG $7,650,000 for 51% of the Senior Convertible Note. The Senior Convertible Note has a principal amount of $15,000,000 and is convertible into 2,747,252 shares of Common Stock (the “Senior Note Shares”), at a conversion price of $5.46 per share. For eighteen months from the Effective Date, PFG had the option to sell the remaining 49% of the Senior Convertible Note to Holdings II, and Holdings II had the option to purchase the remaining 49% of the Senior Convertible Note from PFG, in each case at a price equal to the aggregate principal amount at par value plus $1,500,000.
On February 21, 2012, PFG delivered to the Company a notice that the Senior Convertible Note was in default.
On March 8, 2012, Holdings II and PFG entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Second Assignment Agreement”) pursuant to which PFG sold the remaining 49% of the Senior Convertible Note to Holdings II for $8,850,000. The foregoing description of the Second Assignment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full terms of the Assignment Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.4 and is incorporated herein by reference.
On March 26, 2012, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Peak Merger Corp. (“Peak Merger”), Peak and the Issuer, pursuant to which Peak Merger will commence a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding Common Stock at a price of $1.75 net per share in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest (the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions to be set forth in an Offer to Purchase and in a related Letter of Transmittal. In connection
Page 13 of 16
with the Merger Agreement, the Issuer also entered into a Note Purchase and Security Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Issuer and certain of its subsidiaries named therein, and Peak, pursuant to which Peak purchased a $12,000,000 Subordinated Secured Convertible Note (the “Subordinated Convertible Note”). The Subordinated Convertible Note is convertible into 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or 6,873,562 shares (the “Subordinated Note Shares”), at a conversion price of $1.40 per share, until the Issuer obtains stockholder approval for the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement. If the stockholders of the Issuer approve the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the entire principal amount of the Subordinated Convertible Note would be convertible into 8,571,428 shares of Common Stock. The Subordinated Convertible Note cannot be converted into Subordinated Note Shares until either (i) Peak Merger accepts for purchase the shares Common Stock of the Issuer tendered in the Offer or (ii) the Merger Agreement is terminated.
The closing of the Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, there being validly tendered, in accordance with the terms of the Offer, a number of shares of Common Stock which, together with Common Stock then owned by Peak and Peak Merger (if any), represents a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Stock plus all Common Stock which the Issuer may be required to issue to holders of the Issuer’s stock options and warrants, as the closing of the Offer.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Issuer has granted Peak and Peak Merger an irrevocable option to purchase (the “Top-Up Option”), at a price per share equal to the Offer Price, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares that, when added to the number of shares owned by Peak and Peak Merger at the time of exercise, constitutes one share more than the number of shares necessary for Peak Merger to be merged into the Issuer in a short-form merger pursuant to Section 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (a “Short-Form Merger”), i.e., 90% of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding after giving effect to the issuance of such shares. Following the consummation of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of each of the applicable conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Peak Merger will exercise the Top-Up Option (if necessary to effect a Short-Form Merger) and the Issuer will effect the Short-Form Merger, with the Issuer as the surviving corporation in the Short-Form Merger continuing as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Peak. If Peak Merger is unable to effect a Short-Form Merger, and all other conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement have been satisfied or waived, the Issuer will merge with and into Peak Merger (the “Merger”) with the Issuer as the surviving corporation in the Merger continuing as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Peak. As a result of the Merger, or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be, each outstanding share of Common Stock (other than shares owned by Peak, Peak Merger or the Issuer, or by any stockholder of the Issuer who or which is entitled to and properly exercises appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price at the effective time of the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be (the “Effective Time”). The consummation of the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be, is subject to certain closing conditions, including, in the case of the Merger, approval by the Issuer’s stockholders.
In connection with entry into the Merger Agreement, on March 26, 2012, Holdings II and the Issuer entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Holdings II Forbearance Agreement”) with respect to the Senior Convertible Note, and Peak and the Issuer entered into a Forbearance Agreement with respect to the Subordinated Convertible Note (the “Peak Forbearance Agreement” and, together with the Holdings II Forbearance Agreement, the “Forbearance Agreements”). Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreements, Holdings II and Peak have agreed to forbear from exercising certain rights and remedies each may have under the Senior Convertible Note and the Subordinated Convertible Note, respectively, for a certain period time. In addition, each of the Forbearance Agreements provide for certain events and circumstances in which the Issuer may prepay, or Holdings II or Peak may request prepayment, of all amounts outstanding under the Senior Convertible Note and the Subordinated Convertible Note, respectively including, in some cases, a prepayment premium.
The foregoing description of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Holdings II Forbearance Agreement and the Peak Forbearance Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Holdings II Forbearance Agreement and the Peak Forbearance Agreement, which are attached as Exhibits 99.5, 99.6, 99.7 and 99.8, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
The purpose of the Offer is to acquire control of, and the entire equity interest in, the Issuer. If the Offer is consummated, Peak will be entitled to designate a number of persons to the board of directors that reflects Peak’s proportionate voting interest in the Issuer. The purpose of the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be, is to acquire all outstanding shares of Common Stock not tendered and purchased pursuant to the Offer. All Common Stock acquired by Peak Merger pursuant to the Offer will be retained by Peak Merger pending the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be. After the consummation of the Offer, Peak Merger intends to consummate the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be, as promptly as practicable, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Upon the consummation of the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be, (i) the Surviving Corporation will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Peak and (ii) each outstanding share of Common Stock (other than shares owned by Peak, Peak Merger or the Issuer, or by any stockholder of the Issuer who or which is entitled to and properly exercises appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price.
At the Effective Time and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation will be amended and restated in its entirety to read identically to the certificate of incorporation of Peak Merger as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the Surviving Corporation will be “Comverge, Inc.”, and the by–laws of Peak Merger as in
effect immediately prior to the Effective Time will become the by–laws of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Peak Merger immediately prior to the Effective Time will become the directors of the Surviving Corporation and, subject to certain exceptions, the officers of the Issuer will become the officers of the Surviving Corporation.
Following the Merger or the Short-Form Merger, as the case may be, the Common Stock will no longer be traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market, there will be no public market for the Common Stock and registration of the Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 will be terminated.
There can be no assurance that the possible courses of action expressed in this Item 4 will be consummated by the Reporting Persons.
