Explanatory Note:
Items 2, 4, 5 and 7 of the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Elutions, Inc., Engage Networks, Inc., Astra Family Holdings, LLC, Leventi Irrevocable Trust, William Doucas and Elizabeth Doucas on March 7, 2014, as amended on March 19, 2014, May 22, 2014 and June 23, 2014 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), relating to the common stock, $.005 par value per share (“Common Stock”) of Cartesian, Inc. (f/k/a The Management Network Group, Inc.) (the “Issuer”), are hereby amended to the extent hereinafter expressly set forth. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2. | Identity and Background |
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing Schedule I thereto with Schedule I attached hereto, which Schedule I is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:
“The Reporting Persons are actively monitoring their investment in the Issuer. In this regard, Elutions has engaged in and intends to continue to engage in discussions consistent with the terms of the Investment Agreement between Elutions and the Issuer with the Issuer’s management and board of directors, other stockholders of the Issuer and other interested parties about the governance and board composition, management, business, operations, cost structure, capitalization and capital structure, financial condition, strategic plans and the future of the Issuer.
In addition, Elutions has informed the Issuer that it intends to explore the possibility of a transaction with the Issuer that would give Elutions, alone or together with other parties, the ability to control the board and management of the Issuer. Toward that end, Elutions intends to have exploratory discussions with the Issuer and other persons, including but not limited to other stockholders, about potential transactions with the Issuer that may involve additional debt or equity investments by Elutions in the Issuer, the restructuring of Elutions existing debt investment or the terms of its Warrants, amendments to the existing co-marketing agreement between Elutions and the Issuer, a combination of such transactions, or other strategic transactions involving Elutions and the Issuer. There can be no assurance that there will be any such transaction, of the structure or terms of any such transaction or the time that it could take to determine whether or not there will be any such transaction, and the Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4 at any time.
Without limiting the above, depending upon a variety of factors, including the outcome of the discussions referenced above and actions taken by the board of directors and management of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons may, in their sole discretion, consider, formulate and implement various plans or proposals that relate to or would constitute or result in any of the actions or effects described in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.”
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Items 5(a), (b) and (c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby deleted and replaced in their entirety with the following:
“(a) and (b) As of December 4, 2017, Elutions owned the 609,756 Closing Shares and held all of the rights under the Tracking Warrant and the Incentive Warrant. Under the definition of “beneficial ownership” as set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have shared power to vote, direct the vote, dispose of or direct the disposition of (and therefore beneficially own) the 609,756 Closing Shares, the 996,544 shares of Common Stock subject to the Tracking Warrant and 79,286 shares of Common Stock subject to the Incentive Warrant and for which the vesting terms have been satisfied. The Closing Shares together with the shares subject to the Tracking Warrant and the vested shares subject to the Incentive Warrant represent approximately 16.0% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, based on 9,447,069 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of October 28, 2017, as disclosed by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2017, plus the shares subject to the Tracking Warrant and the vested shares subject to the Incentive Warrant. Accordingly, the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock that may be beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is approximately 16.0%.
To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the Schedule I Persons (other than Elizabeth Doucas and William Doucas as described above) beneficially owns any Common Stock except as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto.
(c) None of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the Schedule I Persons, has engaged in any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.”
Item 7. | Material to be Filed as Exhibits. |
Item 7 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following exhibits herewith:
