Identity and Background. |
Item 2 is hereby amended or supplemented by replacing the second paragraph with the following:
Each of Trailer, LEF III, LEP III, Equity III and Mr. Maloney are collectively referred to as the Reporting Persons.
The Reporting Persons have entered into Joint Filing Agreements, copies of which are filed as
exhibits to this Schedule 13D (which are incorporated by reference herein), pursuant to which
the Reporting Persons have agreed to file this statement, as may be amended from time to time,
jointly in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-1(k)(1) under the Exchange Act. The Reporting
Persons expressly disclaim that they have agreed to act as a group other than as described in this statement.
|

|
Item 3. |
|
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
Item 3 is hereby amended or supplemented by the addition of the following:
The information set forth in Item 4 below is hereby incorporated by
reference into this Item 3.
|
|
|
Item 4. |
|
Purpose of the Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
On July 17, 2009, Trailer and Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, which is
filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein (the Purchase
Agreement), pursuant to which Trailer agreed to acquire the Warrant and the Preferred Shares.
The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants customary for agreements
of this type. In addition, Trailer and the Issuer entered into an Investor Rights Agreement, dated
as of August 3, 2009, by and between the Issuer and Trailer (the Investor Rights Agreement), a
copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.4 to this Schedule 13D. In accordance with the terms of the
Purchase Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement, effective upon consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the Closing), the Issuer expanded
the size of its board of directors by five members, each of which were nominated by Trailer and
subsequently appointed as directors of the Issuer effective as of the Closing, bringing the number
of directors on the board of directors of the Issuer to 12. Under the Investor Rights Agreement,
until the date that Trailer and its affiliates cease to beneficially own at least 10% of the
outstanding Common Stock, the Issuer has agreed to nominate the directors designated by Trailer and
its permitted transferees that hold a majority of the Warrant Shares or a majority of the Preferred
Shares (the Majority Trailer Investors), and has agreed to solicit proxies in their favor
and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such designees to be

elected to the board of directors of the Issuer. In addition, until
the Majority Trailer Investors
cease to beneficially own at least 2% of the Common Stock, the Majority Trailer Investors will have
the right to appoint a non-compensated board observer who will have the right to attend all
meetings of the board of directors of the Issuer (other than executive sessions or committee
meetings, which it may only attend with the consent of a majority of the board of directors or
relevant committee, respectively) as an observer. Under the Warrant, Trailer is entitled to
purchase the Warrant Shares from the Issuer for an exercise price of $0.01. The number of Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant is subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of
the Warrant, including an increase, up to a fully diluted ownership percentage of 49.9%, if the
Company loses the ability to use certain net operating losses, as fully set forth in the Warrant.
In addition, under
the Investor Rights Agreement, Trailer has certain
registration rights with respect to the Warrant Shares, and,
pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Issuer has filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-166406 ), which has become effective and under which the Offering described below was registered.
The Investor Rights Agreement also grants to Trailer a right of
first refusal to participate in any subsequent private issuance of debt or equity securities of the
Issuer or other private financing transaction of the Issuer (other than any issuance of debt
securities pursuant to the Issuers senior loan agreement).
On May 28, 2010, the Issuer completed an underwritten
registered offering of Common Stock (the Offering).
Concurrent therewith, Trailer executed a partial cashless exercise of
the Warrant for 16,137,500 shares of Common Stock by surrendering the
right to purchase a total of 22,812 shares of Common
Stock, pursuant to the cashless exercise provisions of the Warrant. As a result, the Warrant Shares
remaining under the Warrant are 8,602,324, plus 3,541
additional Warrant Shares received by Trailer prior to the Offering as a
result of the anti-dilution adjustment provisions of the Warrant, and 750,000
Warrant Shares received, pursuant to an agreement with the Issuer, in lieu of the market price anti-dilution adjustment provisions of the
Warrant that would otherwise apply as a result of the Offering. In addition, in connection with the Offering, Trailer agreed to an amendment of the Warrant to eliminate the adjustment provisions relating to the Issuers net operating loss carryforwards. The market price anti-dilution adjustment and other adjustment
provisions of the Warrant, other than the adjustments based on net operating loss carryforwards,
will otherwise continue to apply following the Offering. As such, the number of issuable shares
underlying the Warrant may further increase in the future pursuant to such adjustment terms under
the Warrant.
In connection with the Offering, and pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated
as of May 24, 2010, by and among Trailer, the Issuer and Morgan
Stanley & Co.
Incorporated, as manager of the several underwriters named therein
(the Underwriting Agreement), Trailer sold to the underwriters the 16,137,500 shares of
Common Stock received upon its partial cashless exercise of the Warrant at a price per
share of $6.2075. In addition, the Issuer redeemed all of the Preferred Shares
for approximately $47.8 million, which includes the liquidation value
of $35 million, plus accrued and unpaid dividends totalling
approximately $4.8 million, plus a premium of approximately $8 million.
As a result of the redemption of the Preferred Shares, the approval rights of Trailer and its affiliates with respect to certain actions and transactions of the Issuer, were terminated.
The
foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, the Warrant, the Investor Rights
Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the
full text of such documents, which are filed as Exhibits 99.2, 99.3,
99.4 and 99.6 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated by reference into this Item 4. The Reporting Persons are entitled to various rights under the
Purchase Agreement, the Warrant, the Investor Rights Agreement and
the Underwriting Agreement and intend to exercise them as
appropriate in their judgment.
Each
of the Reporting Persons acquired the Warrant, Preferred Shares and
Common Stock for investment
purposes. Each of the Reporting Persons expects to continuously review such persons investment in
the Issuer and, depending on various factors, including but not limited to, the price of shares of
Common Stock, the terms and conditions of the transaction, prevailing market conditions and such
other considerations as such Reporting Person deems relevant, may at any time or from time to time,
and subject to any required regulatory approvals, lend funds, invest in debt or similar
investments issued by the Company, acquire additional shares of
