Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

The Reporting Persons filed an initial Schedule 13G on March 3, 2023, at such time as their aggregate share ownership crossed the applicable reporting threshold. The shares of Common Stock of the Issuer covered by this statement were originally acquired by the Reporting Persons in the ordinary course of business solely for investment purposes and not for the purposes of participating in or influencing the management of the Issuer.

 

On August 8, 2023, the Issuer entered into a Standby Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Stone House, Mark Tkach (“Mr. Tkach”), and William Coulter (“Mr. Coulter”). Stone House, Mr. Tkach and Mr. Coulter are referred to herein as each, a “Standby Purchaser” and collectively, the “Standby Purchasers”. As discussed in a press release dated August 9, 2023 (the “Rights Offering Press Release”), the Purchase Agreement provides that, among other things, the Issuer proposes to conduct a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) in which it will distribute, at no charge, to each holder of, outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (in addition to each holder of record of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock of the Issuer, par value $0.001 per share, and to each holder of record of certain outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Issuer) (collectively, the “Eligible Securityholders”) non-transferable rights (the “Subscription Rights”) to subscribe for and purchase shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. The aggregate subscription price of all shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to be offered in the Rights Offering is $100.0 million.

 

Within two business days after the closing of the Rights Offering, each Standby Purchaser has agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Issuer in a private placement (the “Backstop Private Placement”) any shares of Common Stock of the Issuer included in the Rights Offering that were not subscribed for and purchased by Eligible Securityholders (collectively, the “Backstop Securities”) for the same per share subscription price payable by Eligible Securityholders electing to exercise their Subscription Rights in the Rights Offering. The Purchase Agreement allocates the several obligation to purchase unsubscribed shares among the Standby Purchasers as follows: (i) Mr. Tkach: 25%; (ii) Mr. Coulter: 25%; and Stone House: 50%. Stone House is not entitled to receive a fee for the commitment made by it under the Purchase Agreement. Stone House is, however, entitled to receive reimbursement of reasonable expenses related to the Purchase Agreement and the Rights Offering.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer has also agreed to provide Stone House with the right to designate one nominee to the board of directors of the Issuer, which may be an employee or affiliate of Stone House, not later than sixty days after the date of the Purchase Agreement. As disclosed in a press release dated August 9, 2023 (the “Board Press Release”), the Issuer intends to invite Mr. Cohen to join the board of directors of the Issuer, subject to the Issuer’s governance procedures.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, the Rights Offering Press Release and the Board Press Release do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, the Rights Offering Press Release and the Board Press Release, each of which are incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 99.2, Exhibit 99.3 and Exhibit 99.4 to this Schedule 13D, respectively.

 

The Reporting Persons intend from time to time to review their investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for shares of Common Stock of the Issuer in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based upon such review, the Reporting Persons will take such actions in the future as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time, which may include further acquisitions of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer or disposal of some or all of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer currently owned by the Reporting Persons or otherwise acquired by the Reporting Persons, either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

 

The Reporting Persons have, and may in the future, engage in discussions with the Issuer’s management, board of directors, and/or shareholders concerning, among other things, the Issuer’s performance, the market price of the shares of the Issuer’s stock relative to the value of the Issuer’s assets, potential financing options for the Issuer, the Issuer’s business strategy, potential transactions and other issues for the betterment of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may have future discussion with the Issuer's management and board of directors covering a broad range of subjects relative to performance, strategic direction, shareholder value, board composition and governance of the Issuer.

Depending upon each factor discussed above and any other factor (which may be unknown at this time) that is, or may become relevant, the Reporting Persons may consider, among other things: (a) the acquisition by the Reporting Persons of additional securities of the Issuer, the disposition of securities of the Issuer, or the exercise of convertible securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) changes in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer; (e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer’s articles of incorporation, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing any class of the Issuer’s securities 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 Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above.

 

Except to the extent that the foregoing may be deemed to be a plan or proposal, none of the Reporting Persons currently has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions specified in clause (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons reserve the right, based on all relevant factors and subject to applicable law, at any time and from time to time, to review or reconsider their position, change their purpose, take other actions (including actions that could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D) or formulate and implement plans or proposals with respect to any of the foregoing.
