| Item 4. |
| --- |
| The Reporting Persons acquired their
shares of Common Stock for investment purposes and in the ordinary course of
business. As discussed in this Schedule 13D, the
Reporting Persons own approximately 57% of the Companys outstanding Common
Stock and can control the Companys 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 Companys 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 Companys capital structure. As described in greater detail in Item
6, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement by and among TCP, TMF and the
Company, dated April 10, 2007 (the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement),
so long as the Reporting Persons hold between 7.5% and 14.9% of the
outstanding Common Stock, they have the right to appoint one nominee to the
Companys Board of Directors, and so long as the Reporting Persons hold at
least 15% of the outstanding Common Stock, they have the right to appoint up
to two nominees to the Companys Board of Directors. On July 21, 2008, an affiliate of the
Reporting Persons was appointed to the Board of Directors. As of the date hereof, the Reporting
Persons have not appointed a second nominee to the Companys Board of
Directors. The Company also agreed to
limit the number of directors serving on its Board to no more than nine,
which obligation shall continue for so long as the Reporting Persons have the
right to appoint a director to the Companys Board of Directors. The rights of the Reporting Persons to
appoint directors and the obligations of the Company to limit the size of its
Board were affirmed in a Securities Purchase Agreement by and among the
Company, TCP and TMF dated March 10, 2008 (the March 2008 Securities
Purchase Agreement). As disclosed in Amendment No. 8 to this
Schedule 13D filed on November 10, 2008 , the
Reporting Persons have begun to explore alternatives for the disposition of
their equity interests in the Company, which alternatives may include,
without limitation: (a) dispositions of Common Stock through open market
sales, underwritten offerings and/or privately negotiated sales by the
Reporting Persons, (b) a sale of the Company, or (c) distributions by the
Reporting Persons of their equity interests in the Company to their
respective investors. The Reporting
Persons expect to engage in discussions with the Companys management and
Board of Directors in the evaluation of such alternatives. As part of such
process, the Reporting Persons (i) may encourage the Company to engage an
investment banker or other financial advisor with respect to an underwritten
offering of their equity interests, a sale of the Company or other strategic
transaction involving the Company, (ii) may encourage third parties to
consider an acquisition of their equity interests, an acquisition of the
Company or other strategic transaction involving the Company, or (iii) may
independently engage an investment banker or other financial advisor to
assist the Reporting Persons with respect to the analysis and execution of
various alternatives in connection with their holdings. In deciding which alternative or
alternatives to pursue, the Reporting Persons will seek to maximize the value
of their holdings in the Company.
Accordingly, the disposition of the Reporting Persons holdings will
be effected over time and in an orderly fashion. The timing, manner and aggregate amount of
any such dispositions will be dependent on many factors, including, without
limitation, market conditions, available prices, and the Reporting Persons
ability to conduct sales in compliance with federal and state securities
laws. As discussed herein, the Reporting
Persons rights to nominate directors and to require the Company to limit the
size of the Board are dependent on the Reporting Persons ownership of a
certain aggregate percentage of Common Stock.
Accordingly, the disposition of the Reporting Persons holdings in the
Company may result in changes to the size and/or composition of the Companys
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 Companys business or corporate structure;
(g) changes in the Companys 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 |

| Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or |
| Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer | |
| A. Initial Securities Purchase Agreement On April 10, 2007, TCP, TMF and the Company entered | |
| into the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement which, among other things, | |
| provided for the purchase by TCP and TMF of shares of Common Stock and Senior | |
| Subordinated Promissory Notes of the Company. | |
| The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Initial Securities | |
| Purchase Agreement occurred on May 18, 2007. | |
| Under the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement, so long as the | |
| Reporting Persons (i) hold between 7.5% and 14.9% of the Common Stock then | |
| outstanding, they have the right to appoint one nominee to the Companys | |
| Board of Directors and (ii) hold at least 15.0% of the Common Stock then | |
| outstanding, they have the right to appoint two nominees to the Companys | |
| Board of Directors. On July 21, 2008, | |
| an affiliate of the Reporting Persons was appointed to the Companys Board of | |
| Directors. As of the date hereof, the | |
| Company has not appointed a second nominee of the Reporting Persons to the | |
| Companys Board of Directors. Under | |
| the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to limit, by | |
| the date of the Companys 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the number of | |
| directors serving on its Board to no more than nine directors for so long as | |
| the Reporting Persons have the right to appoint a director to the Companys | |
| Board. In addition, pursuant to the | |
| Initial Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company approved the acquisition | |
| by the Reporting Persons of up to 40% of its outstanding Common Stock, on a | |
| fully diluted basis, such that the Reporting Persons would not be subject to | |
| certain restrictions set forth in the Indiana Business Corporation Law (the | |
| IBCL). The Company also agreed that | |
| it would not revoke such approval and that it will use its best efforts to | |
| ensure that any future acquisitions by TCP and TMF (up to 40% of the | |
| outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis) would not be subject to | |
| anti-takeover provisions included in any of the Companys organizational | |
| documents or the laws and regulations of any governmental authority. The Initial Securities Purchase Agreement | |
| also contained standard representations and warranties that survive until the | |
| earlier of (i) three years following the closing date of the transactions contemplated | |
| by the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement and (ii) the applicable statute | |
| of limitations with respect to each representation and warranty. |

into the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which, on
March 12, 2008, TCP and TMF purchased shares of Common Stock from the
Company. Pursuant to the March 2008
Securities Purchase Agreement, the parties affirmed certain rights granted to
TCP and TMF under the Initial Securities Purchase Agreement related to the
right of TCP and TMF to appoint members of the Companys Board of Directors
and the Companys obligations to limit the size of its Board of Directors. These rights and obligations are set forth
in greater detail in the description of the Initial Securities Purchase
Agreement above. The Company also
agreed that it would use its best efforts to ensure that the acquisition of
the shares purchased under the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement would
not be subject to anti-takeover provisions included in any of the Companys
organizational documents or the laws and regulations of any governmental
authority. The March 2008 Securities
Purchase Agreement also contained standard representations and warranties
that survive until the earlier of (i) three years following the closing date
of the transactions contemplated by the March 2008 Securities Purchase
Agreement and (ii) the applicable statute of limitations with respect to each
representation and warranty. Pursuant
to the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below), the shares of Common
Stock purchased by TCP and TMF pursuant to the March 2008 Securities Purchase
Agreement are eligible to be registered for resale. C. Second Amended and Restated Registration Rights
Agreement On December 11, 2008, the Company entered into a
Second Amendment and Waiver to the Companys Credit Agreement, dated as of
May 18, 2007, among the Company, the lenders party thereto and JP Morgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the Credit Agreement). In connection with the execution of the
Second Amendment and Waiver, the Company issued warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 474,049 newly issued shares of Common Stock (the Warrants) to
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Fifth Third Bank, Bank of America, N.A., Key Bank,
National Association, RBS Citizens, National Association, Associated Bank,
National City Bank and 1st Source Bank, the lenders under the Credit
Agreement (the Warrant Holders). The
Warrants are immediately exercisable, have an exercise price of $1.00 per
share and expire on December 11, 2018.
The terms of the Second Amendment and Waiver and the Warrants are more
fully described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on
December 15, 2008. In connection with
the issuance of the Warrants, on December 11, 2008, TCP, TMF, the Company and
the Warrant Holders entered into a Second Amended and Restated Registration
Rights Agreement (the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement), which
restated the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement entered into
by TCP, TMF and the Company on May 18, 2007.
Pursuant to the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement, the
Company has an ongoing obligation to register for resale all shares of Common
Stock owned by the Reporting Persons, and to file, by January 9, 2009, a
Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register for resale the shares of
Common Stock that would be issued to the lenders under the Credit Agreement
upon the exercise of the Warrants. In
addition, pursuant to the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement, the
Company grants to TCP, TMF and the Warrant Holders (and their respective
qualifying transferees) certain demand and piggyback registration rights in
connection with shares of Common Stock held by them or acquired in the
future. The registration rights
granted under the December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement terminate with
respect to TCP, TMF and the Warrant Holders (and any of their respective
qualifying transferees) when such party no longer holds any Registrable
Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). With the exception of certain expenses,
such as underwriting discounts and commissions, the Company has agreed to pay
all expenses incident to its performance of or compliance with the December
2008 Registration Rights Agreement, including the reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel retained by the holders of Registrable Securities
requested to be included in a registration statement. The foregoing summaries of the Initial Securities
Purchase Agreement, the March 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement, and the
December 2008 Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and
are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibits 1 through 3, which
are incorporated by reference herein. Except as described in the Schedule 13D, the
Reporting Persons do not have any contracts, arrangements, understandings or
relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any
securities of the Company, including but not limited to the transfer or
voting of any of the securities, finders fees, joint ventures, loan or
option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of
profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies. |
