Johnson, The RLJ Companies, LLC (“The RLJ Companies”) and RLJ SPAC Acquisition, LLC (“RLJ SPAC”) with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of RLJ Entertainment, Inc. (the “Issuer”). Mr. Johnson, The RLJ Companies and RLJ SPAC are collectively referred to as the “Reporting Persons.”
Unless indicated otherwise, all items left blank remain unchanged, and any items which are reported are deemed to amend and update the existing items in the Amended 13D.
| ITEM 3. | SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION |
The securities reported herein as acquired on June 20, 2017 were acquired by RLJ SPAC by the conversion of 15,000 shares of the Issuer’s Series D-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, plus accrued preferred dividends, at $3.00 per share (the “Conversion”).
Item 4.PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
The Conversion was effected as a condition of the amendment of the Issuer’s credit facility with Digital Entertainment Holdings LLC as reported on the Issuer’s Form 8-K filed on June 20, 2017.
| ITEM 5. | INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER |
On June 20, 2017, RLJ SPAC acquired 5,905,634 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Conversion.
As of June 20, 2017, following the Conversion, the Issuer had 13,107,819 outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of Exchange Act Rule 13d-3, each of Mr. Johnson, The RLJ Companies and RLJ SPAC may be deemed to beneficially own 9,566,688 shares of Common Stock (approximately 60.24% of the Common Stock), including 6,794,465 outstanding shares of Common Stock, warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock at $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase 1,272,223 shares of Common Stock at $36.00 per share.
The foregoing beneficial ownership amount and percentage are calculated in accordance with Securities Exchange Act Rule 13d-3, which directs that reporting persons assume that their convertible preferred stock or warrants are converted or exercised, as applicable, in their entirety and that no other holder of convertible preferred stock or warrants converts their convertible preferred stock or exercises their warrants.
