AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D

 

Item 1.

Security and Issuer.

 

This amendment to statement on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment to Schedule 13D”) relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of CounterPath Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Issuer”), and amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 16, 2020. The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at One Bentall Centre, 505 Burrard Street, Suite 300, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V7X 1M3.

 

This Amendment to Schedule 13D is being filed to amend Items 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 as follows:

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

 

This Amendment to Schedule 13D is being filed by Alianza, Inc. (the “Reporting Person”), a Delaware corporation, with a principal business address located at 1064 S. North County Boulevard, Suite 500, Pleasant Grove, Utah 84062. Reporting Person is principally involved in the business of providing a cloud communications platform for service providers.

 

During the past five years, the Reporting Person has not been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

On December 6, 2020, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with the Reporting Person and CounterPath Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”) with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person.

 

The Merger closed on March 1, 2021, and as result thereof, the Reporting Person acquired the Issuer in an all-cash transaction for $3.49 per share of Common Stock (the “Merger Consideration”), for total consideration of approximately $22.5 million. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

 

The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Item 4 is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

 

(a)-(j)

 

Merger Agreement

 

Under the terms of, and subject to the conditions set forth in, the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”) with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person.

 

 

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of Common Stock of the Issuer issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted automatically into the right to receive $3.49 per share of Common Stock (the “Per Share Purchase Price”).

 

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be a complete description of the terms and conditions of such agreement, and such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Issuer, the Reporting Person or their respective subsidiaries and affiliates. The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties by each of the parties to the Merger Agreement, which were made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement and as of dates specified therein. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk among the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Issuer, the Reporting Person or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Issuer’s or the Reporting Person’s public disclosures.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a) and (b). The response of the Reporting Person to rows 7 through 13 on the cover page of this Amendment to Schedule 13D are incorporated by reference herein.

 

(c). Except as set forth in this Amendment to Schedule 13D with reference to the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Person has not effected any transaction in shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

 

(d). Other than the Reporting Person, no other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any shares of Common Stock. As a result of the consummation of the merger, the Reporting Person has a pecuniary interest in the shares of Common Stock.

 

(e). Not applicable.
