This Amendment No. 7 amends and restates, where indicated, the Statement on Schedule 13D relating to the Common Stock of the Issuer filed by Harry Sloan with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 23, 2011, as amended on March 4, 2013, April 5, 2013, January 3, 2014, June 20, 2014, August 26, 2014 and September 17, 2014. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 7 but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the initial Schedule 13D, as amended to date.

 

This amendment is being filed to reflect changes in beneficial ownership, to add Landmark South Dakota Trust as a Reporting Person and to report that the Reporting Persons now beneficially own less than 5% of the Common Stock outstanding.

 

Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Amendment No. 7 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D, as amended to date.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background

 

Item 2 is amended to add the following information:

 

(a)-(c) and (f) Landmark South Dakota Trust (“Landmark” or a “Reporting Person”) is a trust formed under the laws of South Dakota. Its principal place of business is 330 South Poplar Avenue, Suite 103-1 Pierre, South Dakota 57501.

 

(d) During the past five years, Landmark has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding.

 

(e) During the past five years, Landmark has not been a party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body.

 

Item 5. Interests of Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a) and (b) The information contained on the cover pages to this Schedule is incorporated herein by reference.

The percentage beneficial ownership is based on 76,932,261 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding as of February 11, 2015, as reported in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement dated February 12, 2015 (which excludes 3,053,634 shares held by the Issuer’s wholly-owned subsidiary), as adjusted to reflect options to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock held by Mr. Sloan that are presently exercisable. Mr. Sloan does not have voting or investment power over the shares held by Landmark.

 

(c) The following transactions have been effected by the Reporting Persons since December 1, 2014:

 

On December 9, 2014, Mr. Sloan gave 4,422,560 shares of Common Stock to Landmark.

On December 29, 2014, Mr. Sloan gave 200,000 shares of Common Stock to a charitable fund.

On February 18, 2015, Landmark sold 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock, pursuant to the terms of an underwriting agreement with Piper Jaffray & Co. in an underwritten offering at a price of $13.099 per share of Common Stock. This price represents the $13.25 public offering price per share of Common Stock less the underwriting discount of $0.1515 per share. In addition, Landmark sold an additional 494,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option at a price of $13.25 per share of Common Stock. The closing of the offering and the exercise of the over-allotment option occurred on February 18, 2015.

(e) On December 9, 2014, Mr. Sloan ceased to beneficially own more than 5% of the Common stock. On February 18, 2015, Landmark ceased to beneficially own more than 5% of the Common Stock.

 

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

Mr. Sloan is subject to a lock-up agreement that prohibits him from offering for sale, pledging, selling, contracting to sell, granting any option to purchase, or otherwise disposing of, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock for a period of at least 90 days following February 12, 2015 without the prior written consent of Piper Jaffray & Co. The lock-up agreement does not prohibit (1) the establishment of a 10b5-1 plan, provided that no sales of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, may be made pursuant to such 10b5-1 plan prior to the expiration of the 90-day lock-up period, (2) sales pursuant to any 10b5-1 plan existing on February 12, 2015 in an amount not to exceed 15,000 shares in the aggregate, (3) the exercise of stock options pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans in effect on February 12, 2015 or warrants effected by means of net share settlement, cashless exercise, or by the delivery or sale of shares held by Mr.Sloan or (4) transfers to the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon vesting of restricted stock awards or restricted stock units or exercise of stock options.

In connection with the sale of securities on February 18, 2015, Landmark agreed that it would not directly or indirectly offer, sell, short sell or make any other disposition of any shares of Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Company owned by it (or as to which it has the right to direct the disposition) or request the registration for offer or sale of any of the foregoing for a period of 90 days following February 12, 2015, without the prior written consent of Piper Jaffray & Co.

 

The terms of the lockups are described in the Company’s Prospectus Supplement dated February 12, 2015 and the underwriting agreement dated February 12, 2015 with Piper Jaffray & Co..
