Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

Of the 11,006,702 Shares directly owned by Toro 18, (i) 2,006,702 were purchased pursuant to the exercise of Toro 18’s subscriptions rights under the Issuer’s Rights Offering (as defined below) at the Subscription Price (as defined below), and (ii) 9,000,000 were purchased pursuant to the PIPE Transaction (as defined below) at the Subscription Price. 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

 

The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.

 

On April 16, 2024, the Issuer entered into a standby, securities purchase and debt conversion agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Toro 18, Selz Family 2011 Trust, Outerbridge Capital Management, LLC, Vital Fundco, LLC and TopLids LendCo, LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer conducted a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”), whereby the Issuer distributed at no charge to the holders of its Shares non-transferable subscription rights (“Rights”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 900,000,000 new Shares at a subscription price of $0.05 per Share (the “Subscription Price”). On June 10, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Immersion, through Toro 18, purchased 200,670,135 Shares for a purchase price of $10,033,507 after purchasing unsubscribed Rights pursuant to the Backstop Commitment (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

In addition to the Shares purchased in the Rights Offering, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, Immersion, through Toro 18, purchased from the Issuer 900,000,000 Shares at the Subscription Price in a private placement transaction for a purchase price of $45,000,000 (the “PIPE Transaction”).

 

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer also reimbursed Immersion, through Toro 18, for reasonable legal and other expenses in connection with the Rights Offering and the PIPE Transaction in the amount of $2,450,000. The Issuer also paid an amount equal to $2,450,000 to Immersion, through Toro 18, as payment in consideration for its Backstop Commitment.

 

On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer appointed Messrs. Singer, Martin and Nader and Ms. Hoffman to serve as members of the Board.

 

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

As referenced above, on June 11, 2024, the Issuer filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse split of the Shares at a ratio of 1-for-100.

 No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the securities of the Issuer, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future, subject to, among other things, the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in communications with management, the Board and their advisors, engaging in discussions with shareholders of the Issuer and others about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons’ investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, the ownership structure, the structure, composition and skill sets of the Board and senior management or the operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional securities of the Issuer, selling some or all of such securities, entering into financial instruments or other agreements that increase or decrease the Reporting Persons’ economic or beneficial exposure with respect to their investment in the Issuer, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the securities of the Issuer, including swaps and other derivative instruments, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.
