ITEM 1. CHANGE IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT
A. Name of Person Acquiring Control: Lufthansa Technik AG ("Lufthansa Technik")
a corporation organized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany having
its principal executive offices at Weg beim Jager 193, D-22335 Hamburg,
Germany. Lufthansa Technik is a provider of aircraft-related technical services.
B. Amount and Source of Consideration: The aggregate amount of consideration
was $26,570,109, all of which was funded from the working capital of Lufthansa
Technik.
C. Date and Description of Transaction: On September 20, 2000, the following
events occurred. The Company was not a party to the private transactions
described in paragraphs 1 and 2 below.
1. Lufthansa Technik entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Melanie L.
Bastian, John G. Makoff, John G. Makoff custodian for Dillon John Makoff, Sidney
G. Makoff, Daniel J. Lubeck, and Scott W. Hartman. Pursuant to this Stock
Purchase Agreement, Lufthansa Technik: (i) purchased 2,336,495 shares of common
stock of the Company ("Common Stock") for $4.12 per share for a total purchase
price of $9,626,359.40; and (ii) received the right to nominate three members of
the Board of Directors of the Company.
2. Lufthansa Technik entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Deephaven
Private Placement Trading Ltd. for the purchase of 300 shares of 8% Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock for $3,790,000 (the "Preferred Purchase Agreement").
These shares of Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into Common Stock on
a variable conversion formula. As of September 29, 2000, conversion would yield
733,035 shares of Common Stock.
3. Lufthansa Technik entered into a Loan Agreement with the Company, and
provided the Company subordinated debt of $9,300,000 for a term of three years.
Pursuant to this Loan Agreement, Lufthansa Technik acquired warrants for
2,500,000 shares of Common Stock for $4.25 per share. These warrants are subject
to the approval of the shareholders of the Company, and are exercisable from the
date of such shareholder approval until September 19, 2001. In addition, the
Company and Lufthansa Technik entered into a Voting and Indemnity Agreement in
which Lufthansa Technik agreed to vote its shares in favor of the warrants and
the Company agreed to indemnify Lufthansa Technik for any losses associated with
it so voting.
4. Lufthansa Technik purchased 5,000 shares of Common Stock in the open
market. The purchase price for these shares was $6.375, for a total cost of
$31,875.
5. Lufthansa Technik entered into a Shareholders Rights and Voting Agreement
with the Company and David Lokken, Brian Carr, Michael Riley, and Dennis Biety
(the "Shareholders"). Pursuant to this Shareholders Rights and Voting Agreement,
Lufthansa Technik now has: (i) control over the voting rights of 196,342 shares
of Common Stock and 129,786 options to acquire Common Stock held by the
Shareholders; (ii) the right to increase the number of Directors of the Company
from seven to nine; (iii) a right of first refusal prior to any sale of
<PAGE>
Common Stock by the Shareholders; and (iv) the agreement of the Shareholders to
vote their shares in favor of the warrants issued to Lufthansa Technik.
D. Percentage of Voting Securities Beneficially Owned: As a result of the
Stock Purchase Agreement and the open market purchase of Common Stock, Lufthansa
Technik became the record owner of 2,341,495 shares of Common Stock, currently
representing approximately 40.0% of the outstanding shares. In addition, as a
result of the Shareholders Rights and Voting Agreement, Lufthansa Technik
controls the voting rights of: (i) an additional 196,342 shares of Common Stock,
representing approximately 3.4% of the outstanding shares; and (ii) 129,786
options, which if exercised by the option holders would represent 2.2% of the
then outstanding shares of Common Stock.
As a result of the Preferred Purchase Agreement, Lufthansa Technik acquired 300
shares of 8% Series C Convertible Preferred shares representing 100% of the
issued and outstanding shares of this series. These shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock are convertible into Common Stock of the Company on a variable
conversion formula. As of September 29, 2000, conversion would yield 733,035
shares of Common Stock of the Company, which if converted would represent
approximately 11.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company,
raising Lufthansa Technik's total percentage ownership to approximately 46.7% of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and total voting control percentage to
approximately 50.1%.
Upon shareholder approval of the warrants issued with regard to the Loan
Agreement, Lufthansa Technik shall become the owner of immediately exercisable
warrants to purchase 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock. If these warrants were
exercised at a time when Lufthansa Technik had not converted its Convertible
Preferred Stock, the shares issued on exercise would represent 29.9% of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock, raising Lufthansa Technik's total percentage
ownership to 58.0% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock. If these
warrants were exercised at a time when Lufthansa Technik had previously
converted its Convertible Preferred Stock, the shares issued on exercise would
represent 27.5% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, raising
Lufthansa Technik's total percentage ownership to 61.3% of the then outstanding
shares of Common Stock.
E. Basis of Control: Although Lufthansa Technik currently has voting control
over only 43.4% of the outstanding Common Stock, the transaction constitutes a
change of control for reporting purposes, in that Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
Act provides that any securities acquired with the purpose of effecting a change
in control shall be deemed beneficially owned, even if not yet acquired.
Therefore, for the purpose of determining whether a change of control has
occurred, Lufthansa Technik is deemed the beneficial owner of the Common stock
which may be acquired through the conversion of its Preferred Stock and the
exercise of management options subject to the Shareholder Rights and Voting
Agreement. In such an event, together with the additional voting rights granted
to Lufthansa Technik under such agreement, Lufthansa Technik would have voting
control over 50.6% of the then outstanding Common Stock. If the warrants
acquired by Lufthansa Technik were to be subsequently approved and exercised,
then the voting control percentage would increase to 64.0%.
