On June 11, 2015, SIC IV and the Company entered into a Line of Credit Grid Note (the Line of Credit”), pursuant to which SIC IV agreed to loan the Company up to $10,000,000. As of December 3, 2015, the Company had borrowed $8,675,000 under the Line of Credit.
On November 18, 2015, Viggle Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) notifying the Company that the Staff has determined that the Company violated the continuing listing requirements of Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires that companies listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market are required to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity for continued listing.

This resulted in SIC IV paying a total of $4,112,500.00 for the shares of Common Stock for which it subscribed. SIC IV paid the purchase price by reducing the amounts outstanding pursuant to the Line of Credit. After payment of the purchase price for the shares, there is $4,562,500 in outstanding principal amount under the Line of Credit.
The purchase of the shares of Common Stock and corresponding reduction in the Company’s debt outstanding under the Line of Credit will enhance the Company’s ability to regain compliance with the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market.
In addition, the acquisition of shares of Common Stock will facilitate the Company’s pursuit of transactions, as the Company explores strategic alternatives.

Line of Credit Note
On October 24, 2014, the Company issued the Note to SIC III. The Note provides a right on the part of the Company to request advances under the Note from time to time. On October 24, 2014, SIC III made an initial advance under the Note of $4,500,000. On December 14, 2014, SIC III made an additional advance under the Note in the amount of $15,500,000. As of March 19, 2015, the outstanding principal amount of the Note is $20,000,000.
The Note bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum, payable in cash on a quarterly basis. In addition, the Note provides for a 3% discount, such that the amount advanced by SIC III was 3% less than the associated principal amount of the advance. From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default under the Note, the interest rate is automatically increased to 17% per annum.
The Note is not convertible into equity securities of the Company.
If an event of default occurs under the Note, SIC III has the right to require the Company to repay all or any portion of the Note. Events of default under the Note include payment defaults, and certain bankruptcy-type events involving the Company. The Company may, at its option, prepay the Note, in whole or in part. If the Company chooses to prepay the Note, it is required to prepay a fixed lump sum in the amount of 106% of the principal amount then being prepaid, plus interest accrued thereon. In the event that the Company issues primary shares in a public offering at an offering price above $5.00 per share, the Company may use up to 33% of the proceeds to prepay the Note at par plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon the occurrences of certain changes of control, SIC III has the right to require the Company to repay the entire amount of the Note on the prepayment terms set forth above.
The Note also contains certain covenants and restrictions, including, among others, that, for so long as the Note is outstanding, the Company will not, without the consent of the holder of the Note, (i) make any loan or advance in excess of $500,000 to any officer, director, employee of affiliate of the Company (except advances and similar expenditures: (a) under the terms of employee stock or option plans approved by the Board of Directors, (b) in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice or (c) to its subsidiaries), (ii) incur any indebtedness that exceeds $1,000,000 in the aggregate other than indebtedness outstanding under the Note, (iii) guaranty any indebtedness of any unaffiliated third party, (iv) change the principal business of the Company or exit the Company's current business, provided that the foregoing is subject to the Board's compliance with its fiduciary duties, (v) sell, assign, or license material technology or intellectual property of the Company except (a) in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice, (b) sales and assignments thereof in any 12 month period that do not have a fair market value in excess of $500,000 or (c) in connection with a change of control transaction, (vi) enter into any corporate strategic relationship involving the payment, contribution or assignment by the Company of its assets that have a fair market value in excess of $1,000,000 or (vii) liquidate or dissolve the Company or wind up the business of the Company, except in connection with changes of control or merger, acquisition or similar transactions or as approved by the Company’s Board in compliance with their fiduciary duties.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
On November 25, 2014, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement described above, SIC III purchased from the Company 3,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company for $3,000,000. In addition, on March 16, 2015, SIC III purchased 7,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement for a purchase price of $7,000,000.
The shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have a stated value of $1,000 per share (the "Stated Value").
Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock entitles its holder to receive dividends (“Dividends”) on such share equal to 12% per annum (the “Dividend Rate”) of the Stated Value before any Dividends shall be declared, set apart for or paid upon any junior stock or parity stock. Dividends on a share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock accrue daily at the Dividend Rate, compound annually, are computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and are convertible into shares of Common Stock in connection with the conversion of such share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.
Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holders, on the basis of its Stated Value and accrued, but unpaid Dividends, into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $4.00 per share of Common Stock.
The Company may redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at any time at the then current Stated Value plus accrued Dividends thereon plus a redemption premium equal to the Stated Value multiplied by 6%. However, no premium will be due to the extent the redemption of shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock uses up to 33% of proceeds of a public offering of shares of Common Stock at a price of $5.00 or more per share.
The Company is required to redeem all outstanding shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock on the tenth (10th) business day immediately following the fifth anniversary of its issuance. However, the Company will have no obligation to mandatorily redeem any shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at any time that (x) the Company does not have surplus under Section 154 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) or funds legally available to redeem all shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, (y) the Company's capital is impaired under Section 160 of the DGCL or (z) the redemption of any shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock would result in an impairment of the Company's capital under Section 160 of the DGCL; provided, that if the Company is prohibited from redeeming the shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock on due to those limitations, the Company will be obligated to redeem the shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock as soon as possible after such restrictions are no longer applicable.
Upon a change of control of the Company, each holder of shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to require the Company to redeem from such holder all of such holder's shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock so long as such holder requests such redemption in writing at least one (1) business day prior to the consummation of such change of control. The redemption amount per share equals the Stated Value thereof plus accrued Dividends plus a change of control premium equal to the Stated Value multiplied 6%.
The shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock are senior in liquidation preference to all shares of capital stock of the Company unless otherwise consented to by a majority of the holders of shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.
The shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights except as required by law.
The consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is necessary for the Company to amend the Series C Certificate of Designation for the shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock were issued.
The foregoing summary of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Certificate of Designation for the shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, which is attached as Exhibit 3.3 and incorporated herein by reference.
