The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On December 23, 2011, the Issuer and Perfumania Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Perfumania”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Issuer, Perfumania, and PFI Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Perfumania (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer with the Issuer as the surviving company (the “Merger”).
Simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Persons entered into a voting agreement with Perfumania (the “Voting Agreement”), pursuant to which the Reporting Persons agreed that they will vote their Shares (i) in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement, and (ii) against any proposal made in opposition to or competition with the Merger Agreement or that would impede, interfere with, delay or otherwise adversely affect the consummation of the Merger. The Reporting Persons also agreed to elect to receive the stock consideration, as described in the Merger Agreement, for all of the Reporting Persons’ Shares. The Voting Agreement expires upon the earliest of consummation of the Merger, termination of the Merger Agreement or a change of recommendation by the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The foregoing summary of the Voting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Voting Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Also on December 23, 2011, the Reporting Persons and Rene Garcia entered into a standstill agreement with Perfumania (the “Standstill Agreement”), pursuant to which the Reporting Persons agreed that for a period of four (4) years from the date of entry into the Standstill Agreement or, if earlier, until certain shareholders of Perfumania cease to own at least 33 1/3% of the Shares, the Reporting Persons will (i) not vote any Shares beneficially owned by them in favor of certain significant matters that are opposed by the Board; (ii) not vote any Shares beneficially owned by them in favor of the election of one or more directors not nominated by the Board; (iii) not enter into or agree to enter into any voting agreement or arrangement or similar contract, or give proxy to, or deposit any Shares into a voting trust, unless they provide for the voting of any such Shares in accordance with (i) and (ii) above. The Reporting Persons further agreed (i) to notify the Issuer of any acquisition by any of the Reporting Persons of additional Shares, (ii) not to acquire, or agree, offer, seek or propose to acquire more than 28% of the outstanding Shares; (iii) not to make, or in any way participate, directly or indirectly, in any “solicitation” of proxies or become a “participant” in an “election contest” ( as those terms are defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules thereunder); (iv) not to seek to control the management, Board, policies or affairs of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or propose, or seek to effect, or negotiate certain significant transactions with respect to the Issuer; (v) not to nominate any person for election as a director of the Issuer who is not recommended or nominated by the then-incumbent directors; (vi) not to form or join a group (as such term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) in connection with any of the foregoing; (vii) not to disclose any intention, plan or arrangement inconsistent with the foregoing, or take any action that would require the Issuer to make a public announcement regarding the possibility of the above listed events. The foregoing summary of the Standstill Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Standstill Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.
Simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Issuer entered into an agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”) with, among others, each of the CMG Trust, the JMG Trust and the VG Trust, as holders of warrants to purchase Shares (the “Licensor Warrants”). The Warrant Amendment amends such warrants to provide, among other things, that each Licensor Warrant outstanding and unexercised as of the effective time of the Merger will be automatically converted into a fully-vested warrant to purchase a number of shares of common stock of Perfumania equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (x) the number of Shares subject to such Licensor Warrant and (y) .533333, at an exercise price per Share equal to $8.00. The Warrant Amendment will become effective only if the Merger is consummated.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Issuer entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) with Artistic Brands Development, LLC (f/k/a Iconic Fragrances, LLC) (“Artistic Brands”) and Rene Garcia, each an affiliate of the Reporting Persons. The Amendment amends both the Letter Agreement among the Issuer, Artistic Brands and Mr. Garcia dated April 3, 2009 (the “Letter Agreement”) and the Agreement between the Issuer and Artistic Brands dated April 3, 2009 (the “License Agreement”). The Letter Agreement is amended to provide that the Merger will not be a “Fundamental Transaction” under the terms of the Letter Agreement, which would have required the payment by the Issuer of certain additional sums to Artistic Brands and Mr. Garcia at the effective time of the Merger. The License Agreement was amended to (i) provide that any warrant issued pursuant to that agreement following the effective time of the Merger would be a fully-vested warrant to purchase a number of shares of common stock of Perfumania equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (x) the number of Shares subject to such Licensor Warrant and (y) .533333, at an exercise price per share equal to $8.00 and (ii) to delete in Sections 2.1 and 6.5 of the agreement any restriction or prohibition of a designated person being a “The Issuer Restricted Person” (as such term is defined in the License Agreement). The provisions of the Amendment will become effective only if the Merger is consummated.
The Issuer, Artistic Brands, Mr. Garcia and Perfumania also entered into a Letter Agreement, dated December 23, 2011 (the “Proposal Agreement”) providing that Artistic Brands and Mr. Garcia will not solicit or negotiate with parties other than Perfumania in connection with the treatment of the Licensor Warrants or the Letter Agreement. However, in the event that, consistent with the provisions of the Merger Agreement, the Issuer engages in discussions or negotiations with a third party regarding an alternative acquisition proposal or enters into an agreement relating to a superior proposal, as described in the Merger Agreement, then Mr. Garcia and Artistic Brands may enter into discussions or negotiations with such third party with regard to the treatment of the Licensor Warrants and/or the Letter Agreement in connection with such acquisition proposal. The parties to the Proposal Agreement also acknowledged that Artistic Brands and S. Carter Enterprises, LLC have agreed to enter into a license agreement and Artistic Brands, Perfumania, and S. Carter Enterprises have agreed to enter into a sublicense agreement, both to be effective upon the consummation of the Merger, and subject to certain closing conditions contained in the Proposal Agreement. Further, Perfumania agreed to issue 300,000 shares of Perfumania common stock to Artistic Brands within 5 business days of the consummation of the Merger, as consideration for the transactions contemplated in the Proposal Agreement.
