| Item 1. | Security and Issuer. |
This Schedule 13D relates to the common stock, par value, $0.001 per share, of Viggle Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
| Item 2. | Identity and Background. |
| (a) | The Reporting Person is Robert F.X. Sillerman. | |
| (b) | The Reporting Person’s business address is 902 Broadway, 11th Floor, New York, NY 10010. | |
| (c) | The Reporting Person is the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Reporting Person is also the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SFX Entertainment Inc., 430 Park Avenue, 6th Floor, New York, NY 10022. | |
| (d) | During the past five years, the reporting Person has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). | |
| (e) | During the past five years, the Reporting Person has not been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction pursuant to which as a result of such proceeding the Reporting Person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. | |
| (f) | The Reporting Person is a citizen of the U.S.A. |
| Item 3. | Source or Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
Mr. Sillerman has used his personal funds to make the purchase of the Company’s securities.
| Item 4. | Purpose of the Transaction. |
The Reporting Person acquired 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock on February 12, 2013. On February 11, 2013, Sillerman Investment Company II, LLC (the “Lender”), an affiliate of the Reporting Person provided an additional line of credit (the “Second Line of Credit”) to the Company in the amount of up to $25,000,000. An affiliate of the Reporting Person, Sillerman Investment Company, LLC, had previously provided the Company with a line of credit of up to $20,000,000, and that $20,000,000 line of credit (the “First Line of Credit”) had been fully drawn by the Company. The Lender provided the Second Line of Credit to the Company to meet the Company’s ongoing capital needs. In consideration of the Lender's agreement to provide the Second Line of Credit, the Company issued to the Lender thereunder 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Such 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued on February 12, 2013 in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereunder and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Because the transactions involving the Second Line of Credit were between the Company and an affiliate of the Reporting Person, who is the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Company formed a special committee of independent directors to review the proposed transactions. Such special committee reviewed and unanimously approved such transactions. The Company has also agreed that all net proceeds received by the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries from any debt or equity offering by the Company or any of such subsidiaries must first be applied toward the payment in full of all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under the Second Line of Credit Note.
The Reporting Person intends to engage in negotiations with the Company relating to the First Line of Credit and the Second Line of Credit as soon as practicable in an attempt to restructure such indebtedness on a long term basis.
Other than the negotiations which the Reporting Person intends to have with the Company as described in the preceding paragraph, the Reporting Person has no plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company, (b) an extraordinary transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure, (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person, (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
