Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on January 8, 2019, and as amended on April 26, 2019, July 12, 2019, and July 16, 2019 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), by the Reporting Persons relating to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Liberated Syndication, Inc. (the “Issuer”). Information reported in the Schedule 13D remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended, restated or superseded by information contained in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The shares of Common Stock purchased by Camac Fund were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business). The aggregate purchase price of the 1,904,668 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Camac Fund is approximately $2,855,441.84, including brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 63,385 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. McMillan is approximately $94,242, excluding broker commissions.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On August 23, 2019, the Reporting Persons announced that they have obtained the requisite support of stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders of the Issuer. The Issuer’s bylaws obligate the Issuer to call a special meeting within 60 days. If the Issuer does not take appropriate action to call a special meeting, then the Reporting Persons are permitted to call the special meeting. If necessary, the Reporting Persons will call the special meeting. The press release issued by the Reporting Persons concerning the foregoing is attached as Exhibit 5 and is incorporated by reference.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) and (b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on the cover pages of this Amendment are incorporated by reference. As of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, on August 23, 2019, (1) Camac Fund beneficially owned 1,904,668 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 6.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; (2) Mr. McMillan beneficially owned 63,385 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 0.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; and (3) no other Reporting Person beneficially owned shares of Common Stock.

Camac Capital, as the general partner of Camac Fund, may be deemed to have the power to direct the voting and disposition of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Camac Fund, and may be deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner of such shares. Camac Capital disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares for all other purposes.

Camac Partners, as the investment manager of Camac Fund, may be deemed to have the power to direct the voting and disposition of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Camac Fund, and may be deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner of such shares.
