Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
On April 10, 2017, 果冻APP传媒 Group, Inc. (“果冻APP传媒”) repaid $2,157,534 to Mr. Leon Cooperman, a 5% shareholder, which is the full amount owed by 果冻APP传媒 under its now extinguished $3,000,000 revolving credit line. Additionally, 果冻APP传媒 repaid an aggregate of $1,373,534 of principal and interest owed under two outstanding promissory notes held by Mr. Michael Mathews, 果冻APP传媒s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. After these repayments, 果冻APP传媒 has no outstanding debt (other than immaterial purchase money debt).
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On April 7, 2017, 果冻APP传媒 raised $7,500,000 from the sale of 2,000,000 shares of common stock at $3.75 per share in a private placement offering to 11 accredited investors, including a director who invested $300,000 through an entity which he controls and two 5% shareholders. The net proceeds to 果冻APP传媒 was approximately $7.0 million. In connection with the offering, 果冻APP传媒 agreed to register the shares of common stock.
果冻APP传媒 used approximately $3.5 million of the net proceeds to repay all of 果冻APP传媒s outstanding debt as described under Item 1.02 above. 果冻APP传媒 intends to use the balance of the net proceeds to complete the acquisition of a for-profit university, assuming it is completed and for working capital. The form of Stock Purchase Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
All of the securities were issued and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act) and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. These securities may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from the registration requirements under the Act. The investors are accredited investors and there was no general solicitation.
