Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

On September 18, 2019, the Issuer and The Maslow Media Group, Inc. (“Maslow”), a Virginia Corporation, Jeffrey E. Eberwein (“Mr. Eberwein”), Naveen Doki (“Mr. Doki”), Silvija Valleru (“Ms. Valleru”), and R-M Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for, among other things, a business combination whereby Merger Sub merged into Maslow, with Maslow as the surviving entity (the “Merger”), effective as of October 29, 2019. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and Maslow continued as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 23, 2019), noting certain provisions were waived to facilitate the transaction in accordance with applicable standards.

 

In accordance with the Merger Agreement and in order to facilitate the Merger, on October 29, 2019, the Issuer entered into a subscription agreement and subscribed to purchasing all the outstanding shares of the R-M merger Sub, Inc., of which Mr. Eberwein was the Chief Executive Officer and sole manager (the “Sub Subscription Agreement”).

 

On October 28, 2019, (1) Lone Star Value Investors and the Issuer and (2) Lone Star Value Co-Invest and the Issuer, entered into Debt Conversion Agreements (the “Debt Conversion Agreements”) pursuant to which (i) the unsecured promissory note held by Lone Star Value Investors (the “LSV Note”) and (ii) all of the unsecured promissory notes held by Lone Star Value Co-Invest (the “Co-Invest Notes”) were returned to the Issuer and cancelled in exchange for an aggregate of 1,085,307 shares of a Common Stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”). At the time of cancellation, (i) the LSV Note had approximately $76,438 unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding and (ii) the Co-Invest Notes had approximately $84,681 unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding. As a result of the Debt Conversion Agreements, no principal or interest remained outstanding or payable under the LSV Note or the Co-Invest Notes and Lone Star Value Investors owns an additional 514,893 shares of Common Stock and Lone Star Value Co-Invest owns an additional 570,414 shares of Common Stock. The foregoing description of the Debt Conversion Agreements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Debt Conversion Agreements, which are respectively attached as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.

On October 29, 2019, in connection with the Merger, (1) Lone Star Value Investors and the Issuer and (2) Lone Star Value Co-Invest and the Issuer entered into separate Piggyback Registration Rights Agreements (the “Registration Rights Agreements”). Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreements, if, at any time after the effective date of the Registration Rights Agreements, if Issuer determines to register for sale on a registration statement any of Issuer’s common stock, for its own account or for the account of others, subject to certain exceptions, then Issuer must, no less than 20 calendar days prior to such registration, give Lone Star Value Investors, Lone Star Value Co-Invest, or any of their successors in interest written notice thereof and, subject to certain exceptions, include as a piggyback registration all of their registrable securities specified in a written request within 10 calendar days after delivery of such written notice from Issuer. If a piggyback registration is for a registered public offering that is to be made by an underwriting, Issuer must so advise as part of the written notice. In that event, the right to piggyback registration is conditioned upon Lone Star Value Investors, Lone Star Value Co-Invest, or any of their successor’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such the applicable registrable securities in the underwriting, subject to certain conditions.

 

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreements are qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreements, which are attached as Exhibit [xxx] and [xx] hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.

  Item 7 is hereby amended to add the following exhibits:
     
  3.1 Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 29, 2019.
