CUSIP No. 74348X103 | | Page 4 of 8 Pages |
On May 2, 2013, the Issuer borrowed $5.0 million of unsecured subordinated debt from Scott Reiman 1991 Trust, which is controlled by the Reporting Person, and Very Hungry, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“Very Hungry”). The $5 million of subordinated debt financing is represented by $5.5 million aggregate principal amount of subordinated promissory notes (the “Notes”). In consideration for the loan, the Issuer reduced the exercise price on all outstanding warrants to purchase the Issuer’s common stock held by the Reporting Person and Very Hungry to $0.25 per share (from exercise prices ranging from $4.25 per share to $3.00 per share) and extended the maturity of all these warrants to August 1, 2016. The Notes bear no interest and mature on September 9, 2013. They are subordinated to the Issuer’s senior debt owed to The Karlsson Group, Inc. The Notes will convert into equity securities of the Issuer as described below.
On May 22, 2013 the Reporting Person entered into a modification agreement with the Issuer and Very Hungry, which provides that the Reporting Person and Very Hungry will invest the aggregate principal amount of the Notes into the units being offered in the Issuer’s previously announced rights offering at the rights offering subscription price of $0.22 per unit. The units consist of one share of the Issuer’s Common Stock and one-half of a warrant to purchase a share of the Issuer’s Common Stock (the “Units”). The investment by the Reporting Person and Very Hungry will be effected in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be made through the full exercise of their rights in the rights offering and their subscription for additional Units through over-subscription rights. Any portion of the Notes that remain outstanding following the rights offering will automatically convert into Units at a conversion price equal to the rights offering subscription price upon obtaining stockholder approval of the conversion at the Issuer’s annual meeting of stockholders, which is expected to occur in July 2013. If stockholder approval is not obtained, the remaining portion of the Notes will mature on September 9, 2013.
The modification agreement also amended the warrant price of the warrants held by the Reporting Person and Very Hungry from $0.25 to $0.30 and extended the termination date of the warrants from August 1, 2016 to August 1, 2017.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
The Reporting Person beneficially owns or may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock of the Issuer and the Warrants, each of which may be converted into Common Stock of the Issuer, for investment purposes. The Reporting Person intends to continuously review his investment in the Issuer, and may in the future determine to (1) acquire additional securities of the Issuer, through open market purchases, private agreements, or otherwise, (2) dispose of all or a portion of his or its interest in the Issuer, through open market transactions, in negotiated block sales to one or more purchasers, or by gift or donation to family members, charitable organizations or third parties, (3) restructure the form of ownership of investment in the Issuer, or (4) take any other available course of action, which could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in the final paragraph of this Item 4. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Reporting Person specifically reserves the right to change his or its intention with respect to any or all of such matters. In reaching any decision as to his or its course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), the Reporting Person currently expects that he would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) the Issuer’s business and prospects; (b) other developments concerning the Issuer and its businesses generally; (c) other business opportunities available to the Reporting Person; (d) developments with respect to the business activities of the Reporting Person; (e) changes in law and government regulations; (f) general economic conditions; and (g) money and stock market conditions, including the market price of the securities of the Issuer.
As described in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Person has agreed to invest its Notes into the Units being offered by the Issuer in its rights offering. Following the rights offering, the Reporting Person anticipates that its beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Stock will increase.
