The purchase of the Common Stock was financed with cash on hand from contributions of partners of the Purchasers.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the 13D Filing is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

On September 9, 2016 (the “ Effective Date ”), the Issuer consummated its Plan (as defined below) and issued shares of its Common Stock and the Warrants (as defined below) to certain of its creditors, including the Purchasers. As previously disclosed by the Issuer, on July 27, 2016, the Issuer and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Debtors ”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, in order to effect the Debtors’ pre-packaged plan of reorganization (the “ Plan ”). The Plan included a restructuring support agreement (the “ Restructuring Support Agreement ”) among the Debtors and certain stakeholders of the Debtors, including certain affiliates of the Reporting Persons, pursuant to which the stakeholders would receive shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, as part of the reorganization pursuant to the Plan.

 

Prior to the Effective Date, the Purchasers were holders of certain of the Third Lien Notes and certain of the Unsecured Notes (each as defined in the Plan) and, as such, on the Effective Date, the Purchasers received (a) 17,981,822 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate and (b) warrants to purchase an additional 340,906 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the “ Warrants ”). The Third Lien Notes and the Unsecured Notes held by the Purchasers were cancelled as of the Effective Date. Additionally, pursuant to the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Reporting Persons received the right to appoint three members to the board of directors of the Issuer (the “ Board ”), provided that one such appointment was subject to the written consent of Franklin Advisers, Inc., as further described in the Plan.  Each of Nathan Walton, Darryll Schall and Ronald Scott were appointed to the Board as of the Effective Date pursuant to the designation of the Reporting Persons. The descriptions of the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference.

 

The Reporting Persons and their respective representatives have engaged and/or may engage, from time to time, in discussions with the Issuer’s management and/or the Board regarding, among other things, the Issuer’s business strategies, management, governance, operations, performance, financial matters, capital structure, corporate expenses and strategic and other transactions (including with one or more of the Reporting Persons and/or their respective affiliates and/or portfolio companies) and intend to, from time to time, engage in discussions with other current or prospective holders of Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, notes, instruments or securities, or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock or such other equity, debt, notes, instruments or securities of, the Issuer (collectively, “ Securities ”), industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners, acquirers or competitors, financial sponsors, investment firms, investment professionals, capital or potential capital sources, operators and other third parties regarding such matters (in each case, including with respect to providing or potentially providing capital to the Issuer or to existing or potential strategic

 

36


 

partners or acquirers of the Issuer).  These discussions have encompassed, and the Reporting Persons expect will encompass, a broad range of matters relating to the Issuer, including, among other things, the Issuer’s business, operations, finances, management, organizational documents, ownership, capital and corporate structure, dividend policy, corporate governance, the Board and committees thereof, management and director incentive programs, strategic alternatives and transactions as a means of enhancing the value of one or more Securities held by the Reporting Persons, including the sale of the Issuer, its Securities or certain of its subsidiaries, businesses or assets or a business combination or other strategic transaction involving the Issuer or its subsidiaries (and potentially involving one or more of the Reporting Persons and/or their respective affiliates and/or portfolio companies), and any regulatory or legal filings, clearances, approvals or waivers relating to the foregoing.  The Reporting Persons may exchange information with the Issuer or other persons or entities pursuant to confidentiality or similar agreements.  The Reporting Persons intend to consider, explore and develop plans, make proposals and negotiate agreements with respect to or relating to, among other things, the foregoing matters and may take other steps seeking to bring about changes with respect to the Issuer to increase the value of one or more Securities held by the Reporting Persons as well as pursue other plans or proposals that relate to or could result in any of the matters set forth in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.  The Reporting Persons may also take steps to explore or prepare for various plans, proposals or actions, or propose transactions, regarding any of the foregoing matters, before forming an intention to engage in any such plans, proposals or actions or proceed with any such transactions.

 

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on an ongoing basis.  Depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the outcome of any discussions referenced above, the Issuer’s business, financial position, results, strategic direction or prospects or any strategic alternatives or transactions, actions taken by the Issuer’s management or the Board, price levels of one or more Securities, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities, loan or bond markets, general economic or industry conditions or any changes in law or regulations, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, the actions and matters described in the preceding paragraph, acquiring, or causing to be acquired, additional Securities, including, without limitation, taking a control position in one or more of the Issuer’s Securities, or disposing of, or causing to be disposed, some or all of the Securities beneficially owned by them, in the public market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, modifying or seeking to modify the terms of any Securities held by them, including through refinancing such Securities, entering into derivatives transactions and other agreements or instruments that increase or decrease the Reporting Persons’ economic exposure with respect to their investment in the Issuer, forming joint ventures with the Issuer or with third parties with respect to the Issuer, its assets or Securities, providing debt financing or other forms of capital to the Issuer or to potential strategic partners or acquirers of the Issuer, pledging their interest in Securities as a means of obtaining liquidity or as credit support for loans or other extensions of credit, entering into strategic or other transactions involving the Issuer, its assets or Securities or its subsidiaries and one or more of the Reporting Persons and/or their affiliates and/or portfolio companies, including a potential take-private transaction, or forming, making or undertaking other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or any of its Securities or its subsidiaries, businesses or assets. If the Reporting Persons were to acquire additional Securities, the Reporting Persons’ ability to influence the Issuer’s management, the Board or the policies of the Issuer may increase.

 

The information set forth in Item 6 below is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.
