Additionally, as of March 31, 2016, New Enterprise Associates, LLC, an affiliate of NEA, beneficially owns 21,380 shares of Common Stock, which number such person represented and warranted to AGH in the Voting Agreement.

 

In addition, as a result of the Voting Agreement, each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the other parties to the Voting Agreement, which represent 178,166,143 shares of Common Stock (consisting of 176,766,151 shares of Common Stock and 1,399,992 shares of Common Stock issuable to certain affiliates of Lefkofsky and Keywell upon the conversion of 1,399,992 shares of Class B Common Stock), or approximately 28.6% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding based on 575,079,125 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 1, 2016, which number the Company reported in its Proxy.

(e) Not applicable.

 

The information set forth in Items 4 and 6 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

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

 

Investment Agreement

 

On April 3, 2016, the Company entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with AGH, relating to the issuance to AGH of the Notes. The transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement (the “Transactions”) closed on April 4, 2016 (the “Closing”).

 

Board Representation. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, in connection with the Closing, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) increased the size of the Board from nine directors to ten directors and elected Michael J. Angelakis, a nominee designated by AGH, to the Board. AGH’s right to nominate a director will terminate if AGH and its affiliates beneficially own less than the greater of (i) 66.7% of the Company’s Common Stock owned by AGH immediately following the Closing (as equitably adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, combination, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the Common Stock, and excluding from the shares of Common Stock deemed to be beneficially owned by AGH at such time for such purpose any shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by AGH at such time solely by reason of the Voting Agreement) and (ii) 4% of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (on an as-converted basis and, for the avoidance of doubt, including in the shares of Common Stock deemed to be beneficially owned by AGH at such time for such purpose any shares of Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by AGH at such time solely by reason of the Voting Agreement).

 

For so long as AGH has the right to nominate a director to the Board, the Company has, subject to the approval of the nominating and corporate governance committee of the Board, agreed to include such person in its slate of nominees for election to the Board at each of the Company’s meetings of stockholders in which directors are to be elected and to use its reasonable efforts to cause the election of such person.

 

Standstill. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, AGH has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that until the earliest of (i) the later of (A) the date that is six months following such time as AGH no longer has the right to nominate a director or (B) April 4, 2019, (ii) the effective date of a change of control of the Company or (iii) 90 days after AGH does not beneficially own any Notes or shares of Common Stock (the “Standstill Period”), AGH will not, among other things: (i) acquire any securities of the Company if, immediately after such acquisition, AGH would collectively own in the aggregate more than 20.0% of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company, (ii) propose or seek to effect any tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination involving the Company or its securities, or make any public statement with respect to such transaction, (iii) make, or in any way participate in any “proxy contest” or other solicitation of proxies, (iv) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any voting securities of the Company to any person who is (or will become upon consummation of such sale, transfer or other disposition) a beneficial owner of 20.0% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, or (v) call or seek to call any meeting of stockholders or other referendum or consent solicitation.

 

Transfer Restrictions and Registration Rights. The Investment Agreement restricts AGH’s ability to transfer the Notes or shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, subject to certain exceptions specified in the Investment Agreement. In particular, prior to the earlier of (i) April 4, 2018 and (ii) a change of control of the Company, AGH will be restricted from transferring or entering into an agreement that transfers the economic consequences of ownership of the Notes or shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes. These restrictions do not apply to, among others, transfers to affiliates and pledges of the Notes or shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, or the satisfaction of obligations related to pledged Notes or shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, in each case in connection with one or more bona fide financing arrangements.

 

Subject to certain limitations, the Investment Agreement provides AGH with certain registration rights for the Notes and shares of Common Stock held by AGH, including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

 

The foregoing description of the Investment Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Investment Agreement, a copy of which is attached here as Exhibit 2.

 

Voting Agreement

 

In connection with the Closing, the Company and AGH entered into a voting agreement, dated as of April 4, 2016, with Lefkofsky, Keywell, NEA and certain of their respective affiliates (the “Voting Agreement”), pursuant to which such stockholders committed to vote the shares that each holder owns in favor of AGH’s director nominee at any annual or special meeting at which directors of the Company are elected.

 

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Voting Agreement, a copy of which is attached here as Exhibit 3.

 

Indenture

 

In connection with the Closing, the Company and U.S. Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) entered into an indenture dated as of April 4, 2016 (the “Indenture”) pursuant to which the Notes were issued to AGH.

 

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum, payable annually in arrears in cash on April 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2017. The Notes will mature on April 1, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”), subject to earlier conversion or redemption.

 

The Notes are convertible into cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and Common Stock, at the Company’s option, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, at an initial conversion rate of 185.1852 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $5.40 per share), in each case subject to certain adjustments determined in the manner set forth in the Indenture.

 

Holders of Notes that are converted in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, as defined in the Indenture, are, under certain circumstances, entitled to an increase in the conversion rate for such Notes based on the effective date of such event and the applicable price attributable to the event as set forth in a table contained in the Indenture. The definition of Make-Whole Fundamental Change includes a sale of substantially all the Company’s assets, a change of control of the Company by way of a tender offer, merger or similar event, and the adoption of a plan relating to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution.

 

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equal in right of payment to all senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company, and will rank senior in right of payment to any indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to the Notes.

 

The foregoing description of the Indenture does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Indenture, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report filed on Form 8-K on April 3, 2016 and is incorporated herein by reference.
