AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO
ISSUER TENDER OFFER STATEMENT ON SCHEDULE 13E-4
INTRODUCTION
This Amendment No. 1 dated August 27, 1999 supplements and amends the
Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 13E-4 (the "Original Statement") filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 25, 1999 by NTS Properties
VI (the "Partnership") regarding the offer of the Partnership and ORIG, LLC, a
Kentucky limited liability company and an affiliate of the Partnership (the
"Affiliate" and, collectively with the Partnership, the "Offerors") to purchase
in the aggregate up to 1,000 limited partnership interests in the Partnership.
Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the
Original Statement. A copy of the Offer to Purchase dated June 25, 1999 and the
related Letter of Transmittal (which together constitute the "Offer") were
included as exhibits to the Original Statement. Under the terms of the Offer,
the Offerors offered to purchase in the aggregate up to 1,000 Interests at a
Purchase Price of $350 per Interest, and the Offer was to expire at 12:00
midnight, Eastern Standard Time, on August 31, 1999. By press release dated
August 23, 1999, the Offerors announced their intention to: (i) increase the
Purchase Price to $370.00 per Interest; and (ii) extend the Expiration Date of
the Offer to September 30, 1999.
This Amendment constitutes the first amendment to the Original Statement in
accordance with Rule 13e-4(c)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act") and General Instruction E to Form 13E-4. This
Amendment supplements and amends the Offer to: (i) increase the Purchase Price
to $370 per Interest; and (ii) extend the Expiration Date of the Offer to
September 30, 1999. The August 23, 1999 Press Release of the Offerors is
attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(6), and a Notice which was sent to the Limited
Partners by the Partnership on August 23, 1999 is attached hereto as Exhibit
(a)(7).
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
- -----------------------------
(b) The title of the securities that are subject to the Offer is limited
partnership interests or portions thereof in the Partnership. (As used herein,
the term "Interest" or "Interests", as the context requires, shall refer to the
limited partnership interests in the Partnership and portions thereof that
constitute the class of equity security that is the subject of this tender offer
of limited partnership interests or portions thereof that are tendered by the
limited partners of the Partnership ("Limited Partners") to the Offerors
pursuant to the Offer to Purchase.) This Offer is being made to all Limited
Partners. As of April 30, 1999, the Partnership had 39,839 outstanding Interests
held by 3,638 holders of record. Subject to the conditions set forth in the
Offer, the Offerors will purchase in the aggregate up to 1,000 Interests. The
purchase price of the Interests tendered to the Offerors will be equal to $370
per Interest, net to the tendering Limited Partners in cash (the "Purchase
Price"). Although the Offer is being made to all Limited Partners, the
Partnership has been advised that neither the general partner, NTS-Properties
Associates VI ("General Partner"), the Affiliate, nor any
2
<PAGE>
of their partners, members, affiliates or associates intends to tender any
Interests pursuant to the Offer.
Reference is hereby made to the Introduction of the Offer, which is
incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
- -----------------------------------------------------------
(a) The total amount of funds required to complete the Offer is
approximately $398,000 (including approximately $370,000 to purchase 1,000
Interests plus approximately $28,000 for expenses associated with administering
the Offer, such as legal, accounting, printing and mailing expenses and transfer
fees). The Partnership will purchase the first 500 Interests tendered pursuant
to the Offer and will fund its purchases and the expenses of the Offer from its
cash reserves. If the Offer is oversubscribed and the Partnership, in its sole
discretion, decides to purchase Interests in excess of 500 Interests, the
Partnership will fund these additional purchases and expenses, if any, from its
cash reserves.
The Affiliate will purchase the next 500 Interests tendered and will fund
its purchases and its portion of the expenses of the Offer from cash
contributions to be made to the Affiliate by its members. If the Offer is
oversubscribed and the Affiliate, in its sole discretion, decides to purchase
Interests in excess of 500 Interests, the Affiliate will fund these additional
purchases and expenses, if any, from these cash contributions.
Mr. Nichols and Mr. Lavin, the members of the Affiliate, will fund the
purchase of Interests by the Affiliate and the Affiliate's proportionate share
of the expenses of the Offer from capital contributions to be made immediately
upon termination of the Offer pursuant to the terms of a Capital Contribution
Agreement dated as of January 20, 1999 by and between Mr. Nichols and Mr. Lavin,
which is herein incorporated by reference.
Reference is hereby made to Section 9, "Source and Amount of Funds," of the
Offer, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3. Purpose of the Tender Offer and Plans or Proposals of Issuer.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The purpose of the Offer is to provide Limited Partners who desire to
liquidate some or all of their investment in the Partnership with a method for
doing so. With the exception of isolated transactions, no established secondary
trading market for the Interests exists and it is unlikely that one will develop
in the future. Transfers of Interests are subject to certain restrictions as set
forth in the Partnership Agreement, including prior approval of the General
Partner. Interests that are tendered to the Partnership will be retired,
although the Partnership may issue interests from time to time in compliance
with the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws or any
exemptions therefrom. Neither the Partnership nor the General Partner has plans
to offer for sale any other additional interests, but each reserves the right to
do so in the future.
3
<PAGE>
The Offer is generally not conditioned upon any minimum number of Interests
being tendered but is conditioned on, among other things, the absence of certain
adverse conditions described in Section 6, "Certain Conditions of the Offer."
The Offer will not be consummated, if in the opinion of the General Partner,
there is a reasonable likelihood that purchases under the Offer would result in
termination of the Partnership (as a partnership) under Section 708 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or termination of the
Partnership's status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes under
Section 7704 of the Code. Further, the Partnership will not purchase Interests
if the purchase of Interests would result in the Interests being owned by fewer
than three hundred (300) holders of record.
(a) The Offerors have agreed that the Partnership will purchase the first
500 Interests tendered during the Offer, and that, if more than 500 Interests
are tendered, the Affiliate will purchase up to an additional 500 Interests
tendered on the same terms and conditions as those Interests purchased by the
Partnership. If, on the Expiration Date (defined below), the Offerors determine
that more than 1,000 Interests have been tendered during the Offer, each Offeror
may: (i) accept the additional Interests permitted to be accepted pursuant to
Rule 13e-4(f)(1) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended; or (ii) extend the Offer, if necessary, and increase the amount of
Interests that the Offeror is offering to purchase to an amount that the Offeror
believes to be sufficient to accommodate the excess Interests tendered as well
as any Interests tendered during the extended Offer. If the Offer is
oversubscribed, and the Offerors do not act in accordance with (i) or (ii)
above, or the Offerors act in accordance with (i) and (ii), above, but the Offer
remains oversubscribed, then the Offerors will accept Interests tendered prior
to or on the Expiration Date (defined below) for payment on a pro rata basis. In
this case, the number of Interests purchased from a Limited Partner will be
equal to a fraction of the Interests tendered, the numerator of which will be
the total number of Interests the Offerors are willing to purchase and the
denominator of which will be the total number of Interests properly tendered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Offerors will not purchase Interests tendered
by a Limited Partner if, as a result of the purchase, the Limited Partner would
continue to be a Limited Partner and would hold fewer than five (5) Interests.
The term "Expiration Date" shall mean 12:00 Midnight, Eastern Standard
Time, on September 30, 1999, unless and until the Offerors extend the period of
time for which the Offer is open, in which event "Expiration Date" will mean the
latest time and date at which the Offer, as extended by the Offerors or the
Affiliate, expires. The Partnership may extend the Offer in its sole discretion
by providing the Limited Partners with written notice of the extension;
provided, however, that if the Offer is oversubscribed, the Partnership or the
Affiliate may, each in its sole discretion, extend the Offer by providing the
Limited Partners with written notice of the extension.
