The Merger Agreement Amendment amends the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 2, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Lender. Parent is owned by SCG Digital Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Gregory H. Sachs, the Company’s Executive Chairman.

increase the Merger Consideration from $1.27 to $1.29 per share; (ii) extend the Drop Dead Date from August 30, 2018 to September 14, 2018, with an extension to September 28, 2018 at the option of either Parent or the Company; (iii) increase the Penalty Loan from $1 million to $1.5 million, with the additional amount to be escrowed within 2 business days of the Buyer Close Period; (iv) obtain a waiver from Parent of all actual and alleged breaches by the Company to the Merger Agreement, which waiver is null and void if the Company breaches the obligations set forth in clause (vi) below; (v) change the definition of an Acquisition Proposal; and (vi) obtain an agreement from the Company to immediately cease all discussions with Hale Capital Partners, L.P. (“Hale”) and its representatives with respect to an alternative transaction, notify Hale that it is no longer an Excluded Person under the Merger Agreement, enforce the required standstill provision set forth in the confidentiality agreement entered into between Hale and the Company, and inform Parent of any breach of the required standstill provision.
In connection with the Merger Agreement Amendment, on August 18, 2018, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Borrowers”) entered into a First Amendment and Waiver Agreement (“Loan Agreement Amendment”) with Lender. The Loan Agreement Amendment amends the Subordinated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2018 (the “Subordinated Loan Agreement”), by and between the Borrowers and Lender, pursuant to which Lender agreed to make available to the Borrowers a bridge loan (the “Bridge Loan”) in the principal amount of $2 million. The Loan Agreement Amendment amends the Subordinated Loan Agreement to (i)
increase the Penalty Loan under the Subordinated Loan Agreement from $1 million to $1.5 million, with the additional amount to be escrowed within 2 business days of the Buyer Close Period (as defined in the Merger Agreement); (ii) obtain a waiver from Lender of all actual and alleged breaches by the Company to the Subordinated Loan Agreement, which waiver is null and void if the Company breaches the obligations set forth in clause (vi) above related to the Merger Agreement Amendment; and (iii) amend the definition of “Conversion Trigger Date”, which is the date on which Lender has the right to convert principal and accrued interest outstanding under the Bridge Loan into shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, to (a) extend the outside date until the next calendar following the new “Drop Dead Date” under the Merger Agreement, (b) reserve Lender’s conversion rights in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated on or after August 31, 2018 due (1) to an action by the Company Board or any committee thereof to withdraw its approval of the Merger or (2) the Company accepting a Superior Proposal from a third party and (c) include a new triggering event upon the breach by the Company of the non-solicitation provisions of the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing summaries of the Merger Agreement Amendment and the Loan Agreement Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby, do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement Amendment attached as Exhibit 2.1, and the Loan Agreement Amendment attached as Exhibit 2.2, each of which are incorporated herein by reference.
