|
Item 3. |
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
|
Except as set forth in Item 4, shares of Common Stock owned by the Reporting Persons were purchased with working capital and on margin. The Reporting Persons margin transactions are with UBS Securities LLC, on such firms usual terms and conditions. All or part of the shares of Common Stock directly owned by the Reporting Persons may from time |
|
to time be pledged with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans made by such bank(s) or brokerage firm(s) to the Reporting Persons. Such loans bear interest at a rate based upon the brokers call rate from time to time in effect. Such indebtedness may be refinanced with other banks or broker dealers.
|
Item 4. |
Purpose of Transaction |
|
Effective February 1, 2010, the Reporting Persons reallocated ownership of Common Stock among the entities comprising the Reporting Persons (the Reallocation). When giving effect solely to the Reallocation, the aggregate Common Stock ownership of the Reporting Persons after the completion of the Reallocation will be the same as the aggregate Common Stock ownership of the Reporting Persons before the Reallocation. In connection with the Reallocation, shares of Common Stock owned by TMF (the Transferred Shares) will be deemed to have been distributed in kind as of February 1, 2010 to certain investors holding ownership interests in TMF, with all of the Transferred Shares then being immediately contributed by such investors to TCP 2. The number of Transferred Shares reported in this Amendment No. 11 as being contributed to TCP 2 is a preliminary estimate by the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons expect to finalize the actual number of Transferred Shares by the end of February 2010, and a further amendment to this Schedule 13D will be filed when the number of Transferred Shares is finalized. As of the date of this Amendment No. 11, the Reporting Persons estimate the number of Transferred Shares to be deemed distributed in kind by TMF to be 123,799 shares of Common Stock, with all of such shares being immediately contributed to TCP 2. However, the actual number of Transferred Shares, as ultimately determined by the Reporting Persons, may be materially different than the estimates disclosed in this paragraph. The consideration for the Transferred Shares contributed to TCP 2 consists of ownership interests in TCP 2 that will be issued to such contributing TMF investors. Also in connection with the Reallocation, certain investors holding partnership interests in TCP contributed such interests to TCP 2 and, in exchange, received ownership interests in TCP 2, with TCP 2 holding, as a result, the contributed TCP partnership interests. The completion of the transactions described in this paragraph will not change the Reporting Persons purposes in holding shares of Common Stock as described in this Schedule 13D.
The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock for investment purposes and in the ordinary course of business. All of the Reporting Persons may dispose of securities of the Company at any time and from time to time in the open market, through dispositions in kind to parties holding an ownership interest in TCP, TMF and/or TCP 2, or otherwise. In addition, TCP 2 may obtain securities of the Company through open market purchases, transfers from other Reporting Persons or otherwise.
As discussed in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons own approximately 56.5% of the Companys outstanding Common Stock and can control the Companys affairs, including (i) the election of directors who in turn appoint management, (ii) any action requiring the approval of the holders of Common Stock, including adoption of amendments to the Companys corporate charter, and (iii) approval of a merger or sale of all or substantially all assets. The Reporting Persons can also control certain decisions affecting the Companys capital structure. As discussed in Item 6, the Reporting Persons have certain rights to nominate directors and to require the Company to limit the size of the Board which rights are dependent on the Reporting Persons ownership of a certain aggregate percentage of Common Stock. Accordingly, the disposition of the Reporting Persons holdings in the Company may result in changes to the size and/or composition of the Companys Board of Directors.
Although the forgoing represents the range of activities presently contemplated by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Company, it should be noted that the possible activities of the Reporting Persons are subject to change at any time. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their plans or intentions and to take any and all actions that they may deem to be in their best interests.
Except as set forth in the Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any current intention, plan or proposal with respect to: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (f) any other material change in the Companys business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Companys charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange, if any, or 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 Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Act, or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated in items (a) through (i) above. |

Under the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement, so long as the Reporting Persons (i) hold between 7.5% and 14.9% of the Common Stock then outstanding, they have the right to appoint one nominee to the Companys Board of Directors and (ii) hold at least 15.0% of the Common Stock then outstanding, they have the right to appoint two nominees to the Companys Board of Directors. On July 21, 2008, an affiliate of the Reporting Persons was appointed to the Companys Board of Directors. As of the date hereof, the Company has not appointed a second nominee of the Reporting Persons to the Companys Board of Directors. Under the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to limit, by the date of the Companys 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the number of directors serving on its Board to no more than nine directors for so long as the Reporting Persons have the right to appoint a director to the Companys Board. In addition, pursuant to the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company approved the acquisition by the Reporting Persons of up to 40% of its outstanding Common Stock, on a fully diluted basis, such that the Reporting Persons would not be subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Indiana Business Corporation Law (the IBCL). The Company also agreed that it would not revoke such approval and that it will use its best efforts to ensure that any future acquisitions by TCP and TMF (up to 40% of the outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis) would not be subject to anti-takeover provisions included in any of the Companys organizational documents or the laws and regulations of any governmental authority. The Initial Securities Purchase Agreement also contained standard representations and warranties that survive until the earlier of (i) three years following the closing date of the transactions contemplated by the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement and (ii) the applicable statute of limitations with respect to each representation and warranty.
B. March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement
On March 10, 2008, the Company, TCP and TMF entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which, on March 12, 2008, TCP and TMF purchased shares of Common Stock from the Company. Pursuant to the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement, the parties affirmed certain rights granted to TCP and TMF under the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement related to the right of TCP and TMF to appoint members of the Companys Board of Directors and the Companys obligations to limit the size of its Board of Directors. These rights and obligations are set forth in greater detail in the description of the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement above. The Company also agreed that it would use its best efforts to ensure that the acquisition of the shares purchased under the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement would not be subject to anti-takeover provisions included in any of the Companys organizational documents or the laws and regulations of any governmental authority. The March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement also contained standard representations and warranties that survive until the earlier of (i) three years following the closing date of the transactions contemplated by the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement and (ii) the applicable statute of limitations with respect to each representation and warranty. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below), the shares of Common Stock purchased by TCP and TMF pursuant to the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement are eligible to be registered for resale.

In connection with the execution of the Second Amendment and Waiver, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 474,049 newly issued shares of Common Stock (the Warrants) to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Fifth Third Bank, Bank of America, N.A., Key Bank, National Association, RBS Citizens, National Association, Associated Bank, National City Bank and 1st Source Bank, the lenders under the Credit Agreement (the Warrant Holders). The Warrants are immediately exercisable, have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and expire on December 11, 2018. The terms of the Second Amendment and Waiver and the Warrants are more fully described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 15, 2008. In connection with the issuance of the Warrants, on December 11, 2008, TCP, TMF, the Company and the Warrant Holders entered into a Second Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement), which restated the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement entered into by TCP, TMF and the Company on May 18, 2007. Pursuant to the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 registering the resale of 5,174,963 shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons (the Tontine Registration Statement).

The Lender Registration Statement was declared effective on July 29, 2009. In addition, pursuant to the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement, the Company grants to TCP, TMF and the Warrant Holders (and their respective qualifying transferees) certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with shares of Common Stock held by them or acquired in the future. The registration rights granted under the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement terminate with respect to TCP, TMF and the Warrant Holders (and any of their respective qualifying transferees) when such party no longer holds any Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). With the exception of certain expenses, such as underwriting discounts and commissions, the Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to its performance of or compliance with the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the holders of Registrable Securities requested to be included in a registration statement.
