Item 8.01. Other Events
Certain former Retail Convergence, Inc. stockholders have agreed to sell 2,129,801 shares (the “Shares”) of GSI common stock in an underwritten public offering (the “Selling Stockholder Offering”). The selling stockholders acquired their shares of GSI common stock in connection with GSI’s acquisition of Retail Convergence Inc. (“RCI”). Closing of the Selling Stockholder Offering is expected to occur on or about December 11, 2009. GSI will not receive any of the proceeds from the Selling Stockholder Offering. In connection with the Selling Stockholder Offering, GSI and the selling stockholders entered into a Purchase Agreement, dated December 7, 2009, with UBS Securities LLC.
As required by a registration rights agreement GSI entered into in connection with the acquisition of RCI, GSI filed a prospectus supplement on December 4, 2009 to permit the former stockholders of RCI to resell up to 4,353,891 shares of GSI Commerce common stock that they received in the acquisition. The 4,353,891 shares registered for resale described above include the 2,129,801 shares to be sold in the Selling Stockholder Offering. In addition, prior to the Selling Stockholder Offering, the selling stockholders entered into an agreement to sell an additional 1,000,000 of the 4,353,891 shares to a private equity fund. The closing of such sale is anticipated to occur on December 10, 2009.
In connection with the Selling Stockholder Offering described in the prospectus supplement dated December 7, 2009, to GSI’s Registration Statement No. 333-163167, the documents described in Item 9.01(d) below are being filed herewith.
