Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously disclosed, the Company is in default of the terms of that certain Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement by and among the Company and Garrison Loan Agency Services LLC, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), dated as of November 21, 2014, and that was attached as Exhibit 10.1 to that certain current report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on November 26, 2014, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”). The Company is unable to cure the defaults under the Credit Agreement, or to repay the amounts owed under the Credit Agreement.

 

On June 8, 2016, the Lenders completed the previously announced foreclosure of all assets of the Company pursuant to Section 9-620 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and, as a result, substantially all assets formerly held by the Company are now in the possession of an entity formed by the Lenders (“NewCo”). This foreclosure leaves the Company without adequate assets to meet its contractual obligations to its customers, or to resolve its remaining liabilities.

 

Immediately preceding the Lender’s foreclosure on the Company’s assets, the Company entered into the following agreements with NewCo: (i) a Transition Services Agreement that provides for, among other things, NewCo to provide services to the Company that will allow it to transition certain contracts with third parties to NewCo and to attempt to coordinate an orderly wind-down of its operations with regard to other contracts that will not be transitioned to Newco; (ii) a Transitional Site Access and Indemnity Agreement that provides NewCo with access to certain of the Company’s facilities, under certain terms and conditions; and (iii) a Wind Down Agreement that provides for NewCo to fund a limited amount of cash into an escrow account that will be available to the Company under certain circumstances to fund certain aspects of the wind-down of its operations (the “Wind Down Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Wind Down Agreement, and concurrent with the execution of the Wind Down Agreement, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Fifth Gear Acquisitions, Inc., delivered a Special Warranty Deed to Newco in connection with certain real estate located in Louisiana, Missouri that was being foreclosed upon by the Lenders pursuant to a trustee sale, which had been otherwise scheduled to occur on June 8, 2016.

 

Following the Lender’s foreclosure on the Company’s assets, on June 8, 2016, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with NewCo that provides for, among other things, NewCo to accept the liabilities and obligations of the Company in connection with certain contracts that the Company was no longer able to service or make use of without the assets that had been foreclosed upon by the Lenders.

 

Item 2.01  Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

As discussed in Item 1.01 above, the Company’s Lenders, through NewCo as their designee, now possess what had previously been substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Company no longer has any employees and a small group of independent contractors is currently engaged to conduct an orderly wind-down of its operations.

 

Although the debt owed pursuant to the Credit Agreement has been discharged as a result of the foreclosure actions described in Item 1.01 above, the Company continues to have significant liabilities and it anticipates that its liabilities may increase as a result of its inability to satisfy its obligations to third parties under various contracts that it is a party to. As the Company is insolvent, no assurance can be made regarding its ability to successfully conduct an orderly wind down of its operations, or that it will not be required to pursue bankruptcy protection. It is not anticipated that there will be any assets remaining at the conclusion of this wind-down of its operations to distribute to its shareholders.
