Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

 

 

On April 30, 2010, TMF distributed 103,917 shares of Common Stock to TCP 2 and T25 distributed 12,283 shares of Common Stock to TCP 2, and on May 5, 2010, TOF distributed 84,647 shares of Common Stock to TCP 2, resulting in the acquisition by TCP 2 of a total of 200,847 shares of Common Stock (the “Transferred Shares”).  The Transferred Shares were distributed to TCP 2 in connection with the redemption by TCP 2 of ownership interests in TMF, TOF and T25.  The distribution of the Transferred Shares to TCP 2 did not change the aggregate Common Stock ownership of the Reporting Persons and has not changed the Reporting Persons’ purposes in holding shares of Common Stock as described in this Schedule 13D.

 

The Reporting Persons acquired the shares of Common Stock and the Note (as defined below) for investment purposes and in the ordinary course of business.  All of the Reporting Persons may dispose of securities of the Company at any time and from time to time in the open market, through dispositions in kind to parties holding an ownership interest in TCP, TMF, TP, TOF, T25 and/or TCP 2, or otherwise.  In addition, TCP 2 may obtain securities of the Company through open market purchases, transfers from other Reporting Persons or otherwise.

 

As discussed in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons own approximately 58.7% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock and can control the Company’s affairs, including (i) the election of directors who in turn appoint management, (ii) any action requiring the approval of the holders of Common Stock, including adoption of amendments to the Company’s corporate charter, and (iii) approval of a merger or sale of all or substantially all assets. The Reporting Persons can also control certain decisions affecting the Company’s capital structure.  An affiliate of the Reporting Persons serves on the Board of Directors of the Company.   The disposition of the Reporting Persons’ holdings in the Company may result in changes to the size and/or composition of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Although the forgoing represents the range of activities presently contemplated by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Company, it should be noted that the possible activities of the Reporting Persons are subject to change at any time.  Accordingly, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their plans or intentions and to take any and all actions that they may deem to be in their best interests.

 

Except as set forth in the Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any current intention, plan or proposal with respect to: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange, if any, or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Act, or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated in items (a) through (i) above.
