Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On March 28, 2018, the Company entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with SHSP Holdings, pursuant to which the Company issued to SHSP Holdings a Convertible Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Note”). SHSP Holdings purchased the Note with funds received from Evercel in consideration for Evercel receiving membership interests in SHSP Holdings.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

A more detailed description of the transactions described in this Item 4 is provided in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 28, 2018 (the “March 8-K”).

On March 28, 2018, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with SHSP Holdings, pursuant to which the Company issued to SHSP Holdings the Note. The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and SHSP Holdings.

Simultaneously with the execution of the Note Purchase Agreement and the issuance of the Note, on March 28, 2018, the Company entered into the Investors’ Rights Agreement (the “Investors’ Rights Agreement”) by and among the Company, SHSP Holdings and two management stockholders of the Company, Richard A. Carlson and Travis Whitton (the “Management Stockholders”). Under the Investors’ Rights Agreement, SHSP Holdings has customary demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Note and, under specified conditions, held by members of SHSP Holdings. In addition, SHSP Holdings will have the right to designate one person for election to the Company’s Board of Directors for as long as SHSP Holdings continues to hold any of the Notes (as defined below), and the Company agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such person to be elected to the Company’s Board of Directors at each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders. The Management Stockholders also agreed under the Investors’ Rights Agreement, for so long as SHSP Holdings continues to hold any Notes and the respective Management Stockholders remain employed by the Company, to limit their sales of Common Stock to specified aggregate values. The Company further agreed, so long as any Notes are outstanding, to limit its outstanding senior indebtedness to 18.6% of the Company’s trailing 12-month revenue, based on the Company’s current credit facility limit as a percentage of trailing 12-month revenue.

Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, Company issued the Note to SHSP Holdings on March 28, 2018 (the “Issue Date”). Interest on the Note will accrue at a rate of 5.0% per annum, beginning on the Issue date until the principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest shall have been paid or converted into shares of Common Stock. The Note is an unsecured debt obligation of the Company, subordinate to the Company’s senior credit facility and subject to a Subordination Agreement by and between SHSP Holdings and Western Alliance Bank dated as of March 28, 2018.

The Note will be due and payable on the fifth anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “Maturity Date”). Interest under the Note will be due and payable on each anniversary of the Issuance Date, and will be paid by the issuance of additional convertible promissory notes of like tenor to the Note (each, a “PIK Note” and, together with the Note, the “Notes”) with a principal amount equal to the accrued interest being paid by delivery of such PIK Note. Except under limited circumstances as described in the Note, the Company may not prepay any amounts under any of the Notes without the prior written consent of SHSP Holdings. At the Maturity Date, the Company may elect to convert all outstanding Notes into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the volume weighted average closing price of the Common Stock for the 30 trading days prior to and including the Maturity Date. The Company will have the right to extend the Maturity Date for up to six months on up to three separate occasions, during which time interest would accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the Note at a rate of 10% per annum.

The principal amount of the Note and any accrued interest thereon may be converted, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the Maturity Date at a conversion price of $7.50 per share, subject to customary adjustments (the “Conversion Price”). If the closing price of the Common Stock exceeds 175% of the Conversion Price for a period of 120 consecutive trading days, the Company will have the right to convert all of the outstanding Notes, provided that immediately prior to such conversion the Company will be required to issue to SHSP Holdings any PIK Notes that would have been issued under the Note had it remained outstanding through the Maturity Date, and all such PIK Notes will be included in the conversion.

In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Note) of the Company prior to the Maturity Date, the Company would be required to issue to SHSP Holdings any additional PIK Notes as would have been issued if the Note had remained outstanding through the Maturity Date, and SHSP Holdings will have the right, at its option, to (i) convert the Note, in whole or in part, into the consideration receivable by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control transaction, or (ii) require the Company or its successor to pay the outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest on the Note concurrently with the consummation of the Change in Control transaction.

The Note contains an “exchange cap” pursuant to which the Company and SHSP Holdings have agreed that SHSP Holdings will not attempt to convert any portion of the Note, and the Company will not issue to SHSP Holdings any Common Stock upon any attempted conversion of the Note, if the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, plus (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to conversions prior thereto and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by any affiliate of SHSP Holdings would (x) equal 20% or more of the number of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or (y) represent 20% or more of the total voting power of the Company’s securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock, unless and until the Company obtains stockholder approval permitting such issuance. The Company has agreed to seek stockholder approval of the issuance of the Common Stock to SHSP Holdings upon conversion of the Notes at its next annual meeting of stockholders and at subsequent stockholder meetings as and if necessary.

The Note contains customary events of default, as defined in the Note (each, an “Event of Default”). If any Event of Default occurs, then, at any time thereafter and while such Event of Default is continuing, SHSP Holdings may declare the entire outstanding principal amount of the Note and all accrued but unpaid interest to be immediately due and payable.
