(1)

Pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being registered hereunder include such indeterminate number of shares as may be issuable as a result of stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.

 

(2)

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee and is based on the average of the high and low sales prices of our Common Stock of $75.40 per share as of May 7, 2018 as reported on The NASDAQ Global Select Market, pursuant to Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act.

 

(3)

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(a) and Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act. There currently is no public market for the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being registered hereunder. The proposed maximum aggregate offering price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being registered hereunder represents the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as of May 9, 2018, multiplied by the average of the high and low prices of our Common Stock of $75.40 as of May 7, 2018 as reported on The NASDAQ Global Select Market.

Represents a good faith estimate of the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued assuming that all of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock being registered are converted at a rate of approximately 2.5075 shares of Common Stock for each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to Rule 457(i) under the Securities Act, no separate registration fee is payable where convertible securities and the securities into which conversion is offered are registered at the same time and no additional consideration is received in connection with the conversion privilege.

 

(5) Previously paid.

 

 

The registrant hereby amends this Registration Statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the Registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this Registration Statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or until this Registration Statement shall become effective on such date as the Securities and Exchange Commission, acting pursuant to said Section 8(a), may determine.

 

 

 

 

The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. The selling stockholders may not sell these securities until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities and neither we nor the selling stockholders are soliciting offers to buy these securities in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted.

 

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JUNE 11, 2018

 

 

 

1,259,591 Shares of Common Stock

765,916 Shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

 

1,920,545 Shares of Common Stock initially issuable upon the conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

 

This prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time of up to 1,259,591 shares of The Providence Service Corporation common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), 765,916 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”), and 1,920,545 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock, which may be offered for sale by the selling stockholders named in this prospectus or in a supplement hereto. See “Selling Stockholders”. The registration of the shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock to which this prospectus relates does not require the selling stockholders to sell any of their shares of our Common Stock or Preferred Stock nor does it require us to issue any shares of such securities.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock by the selling stockholders. All fees and expenses in connection with the registration and distribution of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock registered hereunder will be borne by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders from time to time may offer and sell the shares held by them directly or through underwriters, agents or broker-dealers on terms to be determined at the time of sale, as described in more detail in this prospectus. For more information, see “Plan of Distribution”.

 

Our Common Stock is listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”), under the symbol “PRSC”. On June 8, 2018, the closing sales price of our Common Stock as reported on NASDAQ was $75.51 per share. Our Preferred Stock is not listed on a public market.

 

Because all of the shares of our Common Stock and Preferred Stock offered under this prospectus are being offered by the selling stockholders, we cannot currently determine the price or prices at which such securities may be sold under this prospectus.

 

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before making a decision to invest in our Common Stock or Preferred Stock, you should carefully consider the matters described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 3 of this prospectus.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Neither we nor the selling stockholders have authorized anyone to provide any information or to make any representations other than those contained in this prospectus or in any free writing prospectus we have prepared. Neither we, nor the selling stockholders take responsibility for, nor can provide any assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. This prospectus is an offer to sell only the shares offered hereby, but only under circumstances and in jurisdictions where it is lawful to do so. The information contained in this prospectus is current only as of its date.

 

Neither we nor the selling stockholders have authorized any other person to provide you with different or additional information, and neither of us are making an offer to sell the shares in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.

For investors outside of the United States, neither we nor the selling stockholders have done anything that would permit the offering or possession or distribution of this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required, other than in the United States. You are required to inform yourselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the offering and the distribution of this prospectus outside of the United States.

 

 

 

 

PROSPECTUS Summary

 

This summary highlights certain information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. Because this is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus closely, including the section entitled Risk Factors included elsewhere in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus and in any applicable prospectus supplement.

 

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, in this prospectus, references to “Providence,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean The Providence Service Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

Overview

 

The Providence Service Corporation owns subsidiaries and investments primarily engaged in the provision of healthcare services in the United States and workforce development services internationally. The subsidiaries and other investments in which we hold interests comprise the following segments:

 

 

Non-Emergency Transportation Services – Nationwide manager of non-emergency medical transportation programs for state governments and managed care organizations.

 

Workforce Development Services (“WD Services”) – Global provider of employment preparation and placement services, legal offender rehabilitation services, youth community service programs and certain health related services to eligible participants of government sponsored programs.

 

Matrix Investment – Minority interest in CCHN Group Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Matrix”), a nationwide provider of in-home care optimization and management solutions, including comprehensive health assessments, to members of managed care organizations, accounted for as an equity method investment. On February 16, 2018, Matrix acquired HealthFair, expanding its service offerings to include mobile health assessments, advanced diagnostic testing, and additional care optimization services.

 

In addition to its segments’ operations, the Corporate and Other segment includes the Company’s activities at its corporate office that include executive, accounting, finance, internal audit, tax, legal, public reporting, certain strategic and corporate development functions and the results of the Company’s captive insurance company. We are actively monitoring these activities as they relate to our capital allocation and acquisition strategy to ensure alignment with our overall strategic objectives and its goal of enhancing shareholder value.

 

Recent Developments

 

On April 11, 2018, Company announced an organizational consolidation plan to integrate substantially all activities and functions currently performed at the corporate holding company level into LogistiCare Solutions, LLC, the Company’s largest subsidiary and the nation’s leader in non-emergency medical transportation. The organizational consolidation will result in a more streamlined company structure with greater operational and strategic alignment and better able to pursue both organic and inorganic growth initiatives. This strategic process is expected to take approximately 12 months to complete, over which time implementation costs will negatively impact earnings. Once completed, the organizational consolidation is expected to generate annual savings of at least $10 million.

Risk Factors

 

An investment in our securities involves a number of important risks.

In that case, the price of our securities could decline, and you might lose part or all of your investment.

description of capital stock

 

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”)

 

The shares of the Preferred Stock have the following rights:

 

Dividends. We may pay a noncumulative cash dividend on each share of the Preferred Stock when, as and if declared by our board of directors and permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, at a rate of five and one-half percent (5.5%) per annum on the liquidation preference then in effect. On or before the third (3rd) business day immediately preceding each fiscal quarter of the Company, we will determine our intention whether or not to pay a cash dividend with respect to that ensuing quarter and will give notice of our intention to each holder of Preferred Stock as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

In the event we do not declare and pay a cash dividend, the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock will be increased to an amount equal to the liquidation preference in effect at the start of the applicable dividend period, plus an amount equal to such then applicable liquidation preference multiplied by eight and one-half percent (8.5%) per annum, computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed from the start of the applicable dividend period to the applicable date of determination (the “PIK dividend”).

 

In the event that we shall, at any time, pay a dividend or make a distribution, whether in cash, in kind or other property on the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividended stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is Common Stock or ranks equal or junior to the Common Stock), we shall, at the same time, pay to each holder of Preferred Stock a dividend equal to the dividend that would have been payable to such holder if all (i.e., without regard to any restrictions on conversion at such time (including the Conversion Cap (as defined below))) of the shares of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the applicable record date for determining the stockholders eligible to receive such dividend or distribution.

 

Cash dividends shall be payable quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year (unless any such day is not a business day, in which event such dividends shall be payable on the next succeeding business day, without accrual to the actual payment date), and payment commenced on April 1, 2015. If declared, cash dividends will begin to accrue on the first day of the applicable dividend period.

 

If applicable, the PIK dividend will accrue and be cumulative on the same schedule as set forth in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph with respect to cash dividends and will also be compounding at the applicable annual rate on each applicable subsequent dividend date. PIK dividends are paid upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event (as defined below) and upon conversion or redemption of the Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding-up; Liquidation Preference. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (each, a “Liquidation Event”), after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Company and distribution of any assets of the Company to the holders of any stock or debt that is senior to the Preferred Stock, and before any distribution or payment shall be made to holders of any junior stock, each holder of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus) legally available therefor, an amount per share of Preferred Stock equal to the liquidation preference. The liquidation preference is equal to $100.00, which preference may be adjusted from time to time as described above under the section entitled “—Dividends”. However, if, at any applicable date of determination of the liquidation preference, (i) any cash dividend has been declared but is unpaid or (ii) the Company has given notice (or failed to give such notice) of its intention to pay a cash dividend but such cash dividend has not yet been declared by the Company’s board of directors, then such cash dividends shall be deemed, for purposes of calculating the applicable liquidation preference, to be PIK dividends.

 

The occurrence of a change of control that would result if the Company either (1) merges or consolidates with or into any other person, another person merges with or into the Company, or the Company sells, leases, licenses, transfers, or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another person or (2) engages in any recapitalization, reclassification or other transaction in which all or substantially all of the Common Stock is exchanged for or converted into cash, securities or other property will be deemed a Liquidation Event under the certificate of designations (a “Deemed Liquidation Event”), unless such treatment is waived in writing by holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock, taken together and voting as a separate class (but not as separate series).

 

Voting. Holders of shares of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote with the holders of shares of Common Stock (and any other class or series that may similarly be entitled to vote with the holders of Common Stock) and not as a separate class, at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company, and may act by written consent in the same manner as the holders of Common Stock, on an as-converted basis.

 

5

 

 

In the event of any such vote or action by written consent, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock will be entitled to that number of votes equal to the whole number of shares of Common Stock into which such holder’s aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock are convertible as of the close of business on the record date fixed for such vote or such written consent.

 

In addition to any other vote or consent required in the certificate of designations or by applicable law, unless waived in writing by holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock, the vote or written consent of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock shall be necessary for effecting or validating the following actions (whether taken by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise): (i) any change, amendment, alteration or repeal (including as a result of a merger, consolidation, or other similar or extraordinary transaction) of any provisions of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company that amends or modifies, in a manner adverse to, in any material respect, the rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Preferred Stock, except as permitted by the certificate of designations; (ii) any authorization, designation, recapitalization, whether by reclassification, by merger or otherwise, or issuance of any new class or series of stock or any other securities convertible into equity securities of the Company having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on a parity with the Preferred Stock; (iii) subject to certain limited exceptions, any increase or decrease in the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock; (iv) any redemption, repurchase or other acquisition, or payment of dividends or other distributions, by the Company with respect to any securities of the Company that constitute junior stock, except as permitted by the certificate of designations; (v) the entry by the Company into any contract, agreement, arrangement, or understanding that would prohibit or otherwise restrict the Company from performing its obligations to the holders of Preferred Stock under the certificate of designations, the certificate of incorporation or otherwise; (vi) the entry by any Company subsidiary into any contract, agreement, arrangement, or understanding that would prohibit or otherwise restrict the payment of dividends or the making of distributions to the Company; or (vii) the issuance by the Company of equity or securities convertible into equity of the Company at a price that is more than 25% below fair market value of such equity or securities at the time of issuance thereof.

 

In addition, if at any time certain affiliates of the selling stockholders (the “Standby Purchasers”) and their respective affiliates (including Coliseum Capital Management, LLC (“CCM”)) are the holders of record of more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the vote or written consent of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock will be necessary for effecting or validating (i) any voluntary initiation of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company and (ii) any Deemed Liquidation Event.

 

Optional Conversion by Holders. Any shares of Preferred Stock may, at the option of the holder, be converted at any time into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock to which a holder of Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon conversion shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying the conversion rate then in effect, by the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares.

 

Optional Conversion by the Company. If, at any time following the third anniversary date of the issue date of the Preferred Stock, the volume weighted average price of our Common Stock equals or exceeds two times the conversion price of the Preferred Stock for a period of 30 consecutive trading days, we may, at our option, require that any or all of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock be converted automatically into a number shares of Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying the conversion rate then in effect, by the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted, plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not elect to exercise the foregoing option at any time during the period commencing on the date that the Company has made a public announcement that it has entered into a definitive agreement with respect to a transaction constituting a Deemed Liquidation Event and ending on the date that is the first to occur of (i) the consummation of such transaction and (ii) the date that the Company has made a public announcement that any such definitive agreement has been terminated.

 

Optional Special Dividend and Conversion on Certain Change of Control. At the written election (including written notice to the Company) by holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, upon the occurrence of a change of control that would, subject to certain exceptions, result in any person (other than the Standby Purchasers or any of their respective affiliates or a person acting as a group with the Standby Purchasers or any of their respective affiliates) beneficially owning, directly or indirectly shares of the Company’s capital stock entitling such person to exercise 50% or more of the total voting power of all classes of voting stock of the Company (but solely in connection with a transaction that is a third party tender offer that is publicly disclosed and approved (or recommended to the stockholders of the Company)): (i) the Board shall, subject to applicable law, declare and the Corporation shall pay a special cash dividend (as such may be adjusted as described below, the “special dividend”) on each share of Preferred Stock, out of any funds that are legally available therefor (the “legally available funds”), in the amount of the liquidation preference per share then in effect with respect to the Preferred Stock, pursuant to the certificate of designations governing the Preferred Stock; provided, however, that to the extent the legally available funds are not sufficient to pay the special dividend in full (the amount of such shortfall being referred to as a “funds shortfall”), the aggregate special dividend in respect of all shares of Preferred Stock and any special dividend applicable to parity stock shall be reduced to an aggregate amount equal to the legally available funds and the special dividend (as so reduced) and any applicable special dividend with respect to parity stock shall be paid to the holders of Preferred Stock and the holders of the parity stock in proportion to the full amounts to which the holders of the Preferred Stock and the holders of the parity stock would otherwise be entitled pursuant to the certificate of designations for the Preferred Stock and the certificate of designations (or other governing instrument) of the parity stock, respectively; and (ii) as of the payment date of the special dividend, all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock automatically will be converted (without further action) into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying the conversion rate then in effect, by the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares; provided; however, that for purposes of determining the conversion rate as applicable to such conversion, the aggregate liquidation preference on each share of Preferred Stock and the liquidation preference on each share of any applicable parity stock as provided in the certificate of designations (or other governing instrument) of such parity stock shall be increased by the funds shortfall applicable to each such share.

Conversion Rate and Conversion Price. The conversion rate in effect at any applicable time for conversion of each share of Preferred Stock into Common Stock will be the quotient obtained by dividing the liquidation preference then in effect by the conversion price then in effect. The conversion price for the Preferred Stock was initially $39.88 and is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, including in the event of a stock split, a reverse stock split, or a dividend of Common Stock to our Common Stock holders, in each case as more fully described in the certificate of designations for the Preferred Stock. All holders of Preferred Stock are currently able to convert their Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock at a rate of approximately 2.5075 shares of Common Stock for each share of Preferred Stock.

 

No Fractional Shares. If, upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share of our Common Stock, we will, upon conversion, pay in lieu of such fractional interest, cash in an amount equal to such fraction of a share multiplied by the Closing Price (as defined in the next sentence) of a share of Common Stock on the last trading day before the date on which shares of Common Stock are issued in connection with such conversion. The “Closing Price” means, on any particular date, (a) the last reported trade price per share of Common Stock on such date on Nasdaq (as reported by Bloomberg L.P. at 4:15 p.m. (New York City time)), or (b) if there is no such price on such date, the closing bid price on Nasdaq on the date nearest preceding such date (as reported by Bloomberg L.P. at 4:15 p.m. (New York City time)), or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for Nasdaq and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “pink sheets” published by Pink Sheets LLC (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) if the shares of Common Stock are not publicly traded, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by our board of directors in good faith.

 

Rank. The Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank senior to our Common Stock and each other class or series of shares that we may issue in the future the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks equally with, or senior to, the Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend rights and/or rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution.

 

The Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank equally with each other class or series of shares that we may issue in the future the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank equally with the Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution.

 

The Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank junior to each class or series of shares that we may issue in the future the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank senior to the Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. The Preferred Stock will also rank junior to our existing and future indebtedness.

 

Redemption at the Option of the Holder Upon Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a change of control (other than a change of control that would constitute a Deemed Liquidation Event (unless waived in writing by holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock) or the type of change of control described above under the section entitled “—Optional Special Dividend and Conversion on Certain Change of Control”) and subject to applicable law, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock that remain outstanding thereafter, if any, shall have the right to require us to redeem, in full, out of funds legally available therefor, by irrevocable written notice to us, all of such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock at a redemption price per share equal to the liquidation preference then in effect per share of Preferred Stock.

 

Redemption at the Option of the Company. From and after the tenth anniversary of the original issuance of the Preferred Stock, we may redeem the outstanding Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at a price per share equal to the liquidation preference then in effect per share of Preferred Stock.

 

Reorganizations, Mergers and Consolidations. If at any time or from time to time after the issue date, there is a reorganization of the Company (other than in instances where the certificate of designations allows for any adjustment to the liquidation preference or the conversion price) or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (except a Deemed Liquidation Event that is not waived as provided in the certificate of designations), then, as a part of such reorganization, merger or consolidation, provision will be made so that the holders of such Preferred Stock will then have the right to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, merger or consolidation by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation, all subject to further adjustment as provided in the certificate of designation or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof. The Company may not effect any such reorganization, merger or consolidation unless prior to the consummation thereof the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger has assumed by written instrument the obligations of the Company under the certificate of designations governing the Preferred Stock.

Dividend Policy

 

We have not paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and currently do not expect to pay dividends on our Common Stock for the foreseeable future. In addition, our ability to pay dividends on our Common Stock is limited by the terms of our Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement and our Preferred Stock. The payment of future cash dividends, if any, will be reviewed periodically by our board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, our financial condition, funds from operations, the level of our capital and development expenditures, any restrictions imposed by present or future debt or equity instruments, and changes in federal tax policies, if any.

Other income for the year ended December 31, 2017 includes the receipt of the Haverhill Litigation settlement of $5.4 million, see Item 3, Legal Proceedings in the 2017 10-K, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, for further information on the settlement.

(2)

Gain on sale of equity investment of $12.4 million relates to the sale of the Company’s equity interest in Mission Providence Pty Ltd (“Mission Providence”) in 2017. The investment in Mission Providence was part of the WD Services segment.

(3)

Discontinued operations, net of tax, for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 include losses of $5.9 million, $6.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, related to potential indemnification claims for our historical Human Services segment.

(4)

The year ended December 31, 2017 includes a net tax benefit of $16.0 million related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act during the fourth quarter of 2017 due to the re-measurement of deferred tax liabilities by Providence as a result of the reduction in the U.S. corporate tax rate. Providence realized a benefit of $19.4 million, partially offset by $3.4 million of increased tax expense resulting from additional equity in net gain of Matrix, due to Matrix's re-measurement of its deferred tax liabilities. In addition, the tax provision was adversely impacted by tax expense of $3.6 million related to the Company’s 2015 Holding Company LTI Program, for which expense was incurred for financial reporting purposes, but no shares were issued due to the market condition of the award not being satisfied and thus no tax deduction was realized.

(5)

On October 19, 2016, we completed the sale to affiliates of Frazier Healthcare Partners of a controlling equity interest in Matrix, with Providence retaining a noncontrolling equity interest (the “Matrix Transaction”). Included in discontinued operations, net of tax, for 2016 is a gain on the transaction, net of tax, totaling $109.4 million. In conjunction with the completion of this transaction, we fully repaid the amounts outstanding on our term loans and our senior secured credit facility in 2016.

(6)

During the fourth quarter of 2016, WD Services recorded long-lived asset impairment charges of $10.0 million, $4.4 million and $5.2 million to its property and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, respectively, primarily due to lower than expected volumes and unfavorable service mix shifts under a large contract in the UK impacting future projections; additional clarity into the anticipated size and structure of the Work and Health Programme in the UK; and the absence of additional details regarding the restructuring of the offender rehabilitation contract in the UK.

(7)

On November 1, 2015, we completed the sale of our Human Services segment. Included in discontinued operations, net of tax, for 2015 is a gain on the sale of the Human Services segment, net of tax, totaling $100.3 million.

(8)

The Company incurred $20.9 million of accelerated expense in 2015 related to restricted shares and cash placed into escrow at the time of the Ingeus acquisition. The shares and cash were placed into escrow concurrent with the payments of the acquisition consideration paid in 2014 for Ingeus; however, because two sellers of Ingeus remained employees post acquisition, the value of the shares and cash was recognized as compensation expense over the escrow term. Acceleration was triggered in 2015 when the two sellers separated from the Company. In addition, in 2015 and 2014, respectively, the Company incurred $5.9 million and $4.5 million of expense related to the separation of these two employees. Benefits of $2.0 million, $2.5 million and $16.1 million associated with the favorable resolution of acquisition contingencies and reductions in the fair value of Ingeus contingent consideration are included in general and administrative expenses for 2017, 2015 and 2014, respectively. 2017, 2016 and 2015 expenses also include $2.6 million, $8.5 million and $12.2 million, respectively, of WD Services’ redundancy costs.

Equity in net (gain) loss of investees primarily relates to our investment in Mission Providence during 2015, 2016 and 2017 and Matrix for the period of October 19, 2016 through December 31, 2017. Matrix became an equity investment upon the completion of the Matrix Transaction. For Mission Providence, we recorded net loss in investee of $1.4 million, $8.5 million and $11.0 million in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For Matrix, we recorded $13.4 million in equity in net gain of investee and $1.8 million in equity in net loss of investee related to our equity method investment in Matrix in 2017 and for the period of October 19, 2016 through December 31, 2016, respectively. The equity in net gain from Matrix for the year ended December 31, 2017 includes a benefit of $13.6 million related to the re-measurement of deferred tax liabilities arising from a lower U.S. corporate tax rate as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. As a result of the increased equity income, Providence incurred higher tax expense of $3.4 million, which is reflected as a component of “Provision for income taxes” in the table above. The investment in Matrix at December 31, 2017 of $169.7 million is included in “Equity investments” in our consolidated balance sheet.

(10)

2014 includes $4.5 million of financing fees that were deferred and fully expensed within interest expense in the fourth quarter of 2014 in relation to bridge financing commitments and $3.0 million of third-party financing fees that are included in general and administrative expense.

(11)

2015 includes $2.4 million in Ingeus transaction-related expenses and 2014 includes $11.8 million in acquisition costs primarily related to the acquisitions of Ingeus and Matrix.

Ratio of earnings to COMBINED fixed charges AND PREFERENCE SECURITY DIVIDENDS

 

The following table sets forth our ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preference stock dividends on a historical basis for the periods indicated. For purposes of this calculation, “earnings” consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes, gain/loss from equity investee and minority interest plus fixed charges. “Fixed charges” consist of the sum of interest expense and the component of rental expense believed by management to be representative of the interest factor for those amounts. Except as set forth below, earnings in each of the periods indicated were adequate to cover fixed charges. The coverage deficiency for each period is specified below, if applicable.

The securities “beneficially owned” by each stockholder are determined in accordance with the definition of “beneficial ownership” set forth in the regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they may include securities to which the stockholder has or shares voting or investment power or has the right to acquire within 60 days of May 31, 2018. Beneficial ownership may be disclaimed as to certain of the securities. As of May 31, 2018, there were 12,917,560 shares of Common Stock outstanding and 803,200 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding, which, on an as-converted basis, represents 2,014,042 shares of Common Stock. The Common Stock and the Preferred Stock are the only outstanding classes of capital stock of the Company with voting rights, and the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock vote together as a single class. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote, and each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to that number of votes equal to the whole number of shares of Common Stock into which such holder’s aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock are convertible as of the close of business on the relevant voting record date. As of May 31, 2018, each share of outstanding Preferred Stock was convertible based on a liquidation preference of $100 divided by a conversion price of $39.88.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED Party TRANSACTIONS

 

Retention of Advisors

 

In 2017, the Company retained two advisors that have relationships with members of our Board. We retained GCA Advisors, LLC (“GCA”) to provide financial advisory services to the Company, for customary fees, in connection with a transaction in their area of expertise. The transaction was no longer under consideration following the first quarter of 2017. In 2017, the Company paid GCA $102,631.85 for such services. Todd Carter, a member of our Board, is Co-President, Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors of GCA.  Upon the engagement of GCA, Mr. Carter immediately resigned from the Audit Committee and was replaced by Frank J. Wright. The Company received a letter from GCA advising that the Company’s engagement of GCA, and Mr. Carter’s relationship with the Company and his membership on the Board, was not and would not be taken into consideration when calculating his base salary or bonus (whether cash, stock or otherwise) or accounted for in any way as it related to his compensation.  The Board determined that Mr. Carter qualified and continues to qualify as independent under the applicable NASDAQ and SEC standards.

 

In 2017, the Company retained Epstein, Becker & Green, P.C. (“EBG”) to provide healthcare regulatory advice in respect of disclosures being made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and our 2017 10-K and EBG Advisors, Inc. (“EBG Advisors”), an affiliated entity, to provide healthcare advisory services to the Company, both for customary fees. The Company made the decision to retain EBG and EBG Advisors after reviewing several potential healthcare regulatory advisors, and engaging in interviews with four potential firms and determined EBG and EBG Advisors were best positioned to meet the Company’s needs. In 2017, the Company paid $11,829 and $153,078 to EBG and EBG Advisors, respectively, for such services. The amounts represent less than 1% of total revenue for both EBG and EBG Advisors, respectively. Leslie Norwalk, a member of our Board, is Counsel at EBG. Ms. Norwalk receives a fixed base salary for her employment at EBG and no additional variable compensation. The Company has received a letter from EBG advising that the Company’s engagement of the applicable advisor, and Ms. Norwalk’s relationship with the Company and her membership on the Board was not and will not be taken into consideration when calculating her compensation or accounted for in any way as it relates to her compensation. The Board has determined that Ms. Norwalk qualifies as independent under the applicable NASDAQ and SEC standards.

 

Indemnification Obligations

 

In accordance with certain indemnification obligations set forth in financing agreements for the Company’s 2014 acquisition of CCHN Group Holdings, Inc., the Company was obligated to pay for the legal expenses of certain entities affiliated with CCM, in connection with Haverhill Retirement System v. Kerley et al., C.A. No. 11149-VCL (the “Haverhill Litigation”). CCM acts as an investment adviser to certain stockholders of the Company, and Christopher Shackelton is a manager of and has an interest in CCM. In addition, in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the Company was also obligated to pay for the legal expenses of certain of our current and former directors and officers in connection with the Haverhill Litigation; a portion of such expenses was paid by our insurance carriers. The Company expensed $245,000, $757,000 and $310,000 in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for such legal expenses. For more information on the Haverhill Litigation and the Company’s indemnification obligations, see Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” in the 2017 10-K, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and Note 18, Commitments and Contingencies, to our consolidated financial statements included therein.

 

Employment of David Shackelton

 

David Shackelton, the brother of Christopher Shackelton, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Providence, is currently employed by the Company as Chief Transformation Officer and reports to our Interim CEO. From October 2015 until April 11, 2018, David Shackelton served as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. From August through October 2015, David Shackelton served as the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer and Head of Corporate Development. His total compensation, including the grant date fair value of equity awards, was $2,342,583, $1,130,046 and $3,249,337 in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. David Shackelton’s compensation is more fully described in the “Summary Compensation Table” in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, filed with the SEC on April 27, 2018, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

 

Transaction with CBIZ Benefits and Insurance Services, Inc.

 

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, we used CBIZ Benefits and Insurance Services, Inc., or CBIZ, a subsidiary of CBIZ, Inc., to administer and consult on our self-insured employee health benefits. For 2015, CBIZ and its subsidiaries received fees, paid by Providence, of approximately $436,500, and commissions of approximately $169,000, paid by third parties related to business with Providence. Eric Rustand, the son of Warren Rustand, our former Chief Executive Officer, works for CBIZ. Eric Rustand, Senior Benefits Consultant for CBIZ, is the lead consultant on the employee health benefits plans for Providence. For 2015, Eric Rustand received approximately $106,000 in compensation from CBIZ related to CBIZ’s business with Providence. Warren Rustand served as a member of the Board of Directors of Providence from 2005 until 2015 and as Chief Executive Officer of Providence from 2012 until 2015. The business relationship between Providence and CBIZ existed prior to Warren Rustand becoming a member of the Board.

Unsecured Subordinated Bridge Note and Standby Purchase Agreement

 

On October 23, 2014, we issued to certain funds and accounts managed by CCM (“Coliseum”) a 14.0% Unsecured Subordinated Note in aggregate principal amount of $65,500,000 (the “Note”). Interest from the issuance date to, but excluding, the 120th day after the issuance date, was paid in cash in the amount of $3,014,795 on the issuance of the Note. Christopher Shackelton, who serves as our Chairman of the Board of Directors, is also a Managing Partner at CCM. The Note was repaid in full on February 11, 2015, with the proceeds from a registered Rights Offering (the “Rights Offering”) and related standby purchase commitment, which allowed all of the Company’s existing holders of Common Stock the non-transferrable right to purchase their pro rata share of $65,500,000 of Preferred Stock at a price of $100.00 per share, as further described below.

 

In connection with the anticipated Rights Offering, on October 23, 2014, the Company entered into a standby purchase agreement (the “Standby Purchase Agreement”) with Coliseum, pursuant to which Coliseum agreed to purchase, substantially simultaneously with the completion of the Rights Offering, in the aggregate, all of the available Preferred Stock not otherwise sold in the Rights Offering following the exercise of the subscription privileges of holders of the Company’s Common Stock. As consideration for entering into the Standby Purchase Agreement, on October 23, 2014, the Company paid Coliseum a fee of $2,947,000. In addition, Coliseum’s right, exercisable within 30 days following the completion of the Rights Offering, to purchase additional Preferred Stock valued at $15,000,000 at a price per share equal to 105% of the subscription price, was exercised on March 12, 2015.

 

Indemnification Agreement

 

On May 9, 2018, the Company entered into a registration indemnification agreement with each of the selling stockholders, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders, and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify the Company, against certain matters relating to the registration of the securities to which this prospectus relates.

a combination of any such methods; and

 

 

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

Registration of our securities covered by this prospectus does not mean that those securities necessarily will be offered or sold.

 

To the extent required by law, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. Any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement relating to a particular offering of our Common Stock or Preferred Stock by the selling stockholders may include the following information to the extent required by law:

18

 

 

The selling stockholders may offer the securities covered by this prospectus to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or through underwriters without an underwriting syndicate. If underwriters are used for the sale of our Common Stock or Preferred Stock, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account. The underwriters may resell the securities in one or more transactions, including in negotiated transactions at a fixed public offering price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. In connection with any such underwritten sale of our securities, underwriters may receive compensation from the selling stockholders, for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell Common Stock or Preferred Stock to or through dealers, and the dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Such compensation may be in excess of customary discounts, concessions or commissions.

 

Sales through an underwriter or dealer may be effected:

 

 

in transactions on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;

 

 

in transactions in the over-the-counter market;

 

 

in block transactions in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction, or in crosses, in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade;

 

 

through the writing of options; or

 

 

through other types of transactions.

 

If the selling stockholders use an underwriter or underwriters to effectuate the sale of our securities, we and/or they will execute an underwriting agreement with those underwriters at the time of sale of those securities. To the extent required by law, the names of the underwriters will be set forth in the prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement used by the underwriters to sell those securities. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement relating to a particular offering of Common Stock or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to customary conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities offered if any of the securities are purchased.

 

In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Broker-dealers may receive discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. Such compensation may be in excess of customary discounts, concessions or commissions. If dealers are utilized in the sale of securities, the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction will be set forth in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement, if required.

 

The selling stockholders may also sell securities covered by this prospectus from time to time through agents. We will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of such shares and will list commissions payable to these agents in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement, if required. These agents will be acting on a best efforts basis to solicit purchases for the period of their appointment, unless we state otherwise in any required prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment.

 

The selling stockholders may sell shares of our Common Stock directly to purchasers. In this case, it may not engage underwriters or agents in the offer and sale of such shares.

 

Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the selling stockholders’ securities or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If any of the selling stockholders are deemed an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, if applicable. If any entity is deemed an underwriter or any amounts deemed underwriting discounts and commissions, the prospectus supplement will identify the underwriter or agent and describe the compensation received from the selling stockholders.

 

Certain of the underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who may become involved in the sale of our securities may engage in transactions with and perform other services for us in the ordinary course of their business for which they will receive ordinary compensation.

 

We are not aware of any plans, arrangements or understandings between the selling stockholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of our securities by the selling stockholders. We cannot assure you that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the shares of our Common Stock or Preferred Stock offered by them pursuant to this prospectus. In addition, we cannot assure you that the selling stockholders will not transfer, devise or gift the securities by other means not described in this prospectus. Moreover, the securities covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

 

19

 

 

From time to time, the selling stockholders may pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in some or all of the securities they own. The pledgees, secured parties or persons to whom the securities have been hypothecated will, upon foreclosure, be deemed to be the selling stockholder. The number of the selling stockholders’ securities offered under this prospectus will decrease as and when they take such actions. The plan of distribution for those selling stockholders’ securities will otherwise remain unchanged. In addition, the selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell the securities short, and, in those instances, this prospectus may be delivered in connection with the short sales and the securities offered under this prospectus may be used to cover short sales.

 

The selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers and the broker-dealers may engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume with that selling stockholders, including, without limitation, in connection with distributions of the securities by those broker-dealers. The selling stockholders may enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that involve the delivery of the securities offered hereby to the broker-dealers, who may then resell or otherwise transfer those securities.

 

The selling stockholders may elect to make a pro rata in-kind distribution of the securities their partners or members. In such event, we may file a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the extent required by law in order to permit the distributees to use the prospectus to resell the securities acquired in the distribution.

 

In connection with derivative transactions or privately negotiated transactions with third parties and if the applicable prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment indicates, third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction), including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by the selling stockholders or borrowed from the selling stockholders or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from the selling stockholders in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). In addition, the selling stockholders may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in the securities of the selling stockholders or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

 

The securities may also be exchanged for satisfaction of the selling stockholders’ obligations or other liabilities to its creditors. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers.

 

The selling stockholders may also sell securities pursuant to Section 4(a)(7) of the Securities Act or Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, rather than this prospectus, in each case if such exemption is available.


Indemnification

 

We and the selling stockholders may enter agreements under which underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of our securities may be entitled to indemnification by us and/or the selling stockholders against various liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make.

 

Price Stabilization and Short Positions

 

If underwriters or dealers are used in the sale of shares of our securities, until the distribution of the securities is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of any underwriters to bid for and purchase our securities. As an exception to these rules, representatives of any underwriters are permitted to engage in transactions that stabilize the price of our securities. These transactions may consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of our securities. If the underwriters create a short position in our securities in connection with an offering (that is, if they sell more shares than are set forth on the cover page of the applicable prospectus supplement), the representatives of the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing shares in the open market.

 

We make no representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our securities. In addition, we make no representation that the representatives of any underwriters will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation, under specified circumstances, to indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by third parties by reason of the fact that they were or are directors, officers, employees or agents of the corporation, if such directors, officers, employees or agents acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reason to believe their conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, i.e., one by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by directors, officers, employees or agents in connection with the defense or settlement of an action or suit, and only with respect to a matter as to which they shall have acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made if such person shall have been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that the defendant directors, officers, employees or agents are fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of liability.

 

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director:

 

 

for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders,

 

 

for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,

 

 

under Section 174 (relating to liability for unauthorized acquisitions or redemptions of, or dividends on, capital stock) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or

 

 

for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

 

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that we shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, indemnify all persons whom we may indemnify under Delaware law and contains provisions permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

 

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation further provides that:

 

 

we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, subject to very limited exceptions;

 

 

we may indemnify other persons, subject to very limited exceptions and the unanimous consent of our board of directors; and

 

II-1

 

 

 

we are required to advance expenses, as incurred, to our directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to very limited exceptions.

 

We maintain an insurance policy providing for indemnification of officers and directors and certain other persons against liabilities and expenses incurred by any of them in certain stated proceedings and conditions.

 

The indemnification provisions in our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of our directors and officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

II-7

 

 

 

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

 

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(2)

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4)

That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(5)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
