The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the “Amendment No. 1”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 1. | Security and Issuer. |
Item 1 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
This statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Function(x) Inc. (f/k/a Viggle Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 902 Broadway, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10010.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
The Shares purchased for the accounts of each of Flagship and WS were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted, as set forth in Schedule A to the Schedule 13D, which is incorporated by reference herein. The Shares reported herein for WAM, sole member and manager, were purchased for the account of Flagship, a private investment fund managed by WAM. A total of approximately $4,199,999 was paid for the 2,048,780 Shares, excluding brokerage commissions. The Shares reported herein for WT, sole member and manager, were purchased for the account of WS. A total of approximately $3.52 was paid for the 20 Shares, excluding brokerage commissions.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
Wolverine Asset Management, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Wolverine”) is appreciative of the dialog it has had with the Issuer since delivering a letter to the Issuer on January 22, 2016 and pleased that the Issuer has begun to address certain of Wolverine’s serious concerns and ideas for improving shareholder value.
Due to the Issuer’s recapitalization, Wolverine’s ownership position in the Issuer has been reduced to below five percent. There are still a few remaining opportunities that Wolverine believes should be explored as part of an effort to unlock the Issuer’s intrinsic value. These include (i) devising and communicating a broader media strategy that leverages the Issuer’s historical success, (ii) partaking in a significant new capital investment to both provide working capital and confidence to the market and (iii) attracting new senior management with strong capital markets experience and a track record of managing micro-cap public companies. Wolverine looks forward to continuing its dialog with the Issuer regarding these value-enhancing initiatives.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
