Item 5. Other Events
On December 21, 2000, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase and
Investor Rights Agreement (the "Agreement") with private investors for the
private placement of a total of $9.0 million of the Company's Series C Preferred
Stock (the "Series C Preferred"). A total of 600,303 shares of Series C
Preferred were sold under the Agreement at a purchase price of $15.00 per share,
including 378,000 shares sold to Rennes Foundation, 100,000 shares to Flanders
Language Valley Fund CVA, who may be deemed to be an affiliate of the Company,
and 33,334 shares to Edmund Shea and Mary Shea Real Property Trust, a holder of
greater than ten percent of the Company's Common Stock. The Series C Preferred
Stock will be convertible into Common Stock on a 1:1 basis subject to certain
antidilution provisions.
The Series C Preferred bears non-cumulative dividends at an annual rate
of 6% payable if and when declared by the Company. The conversion rate of the
Series C Preferred will be adjusted on a weighted average basis if the Company
issues Common Stock at a price less than the then-effective conversion price,
other than issuances pursuant to incentive stock arrangements approved by the
Board.
In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company, the holders of the Series C Preferred will receive, prior to any
distribution to the holders of the Common Stock, a liquidation preference
entitling them to receive an amount equal to the purchase price of the Series C
Preferred plus any declared but unpaid dividends.
Each share of the Series C Preferred has the number of votes equal to
the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon its conversion into
Common Stock. Although the holders of the Series C Preferred will generally vote
together with the Common Stock and not as a separate series, the consent of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred is
required to (1) alter or change any of the powers, preferences, privileges or
rights of the Series C Preferred Stock; (2) create any new class or series of
shares having preferences prior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any manner,
including, without limitation, as to dividends or liquidation; (3) take any
action that reclassifies any outstanding shares into shares having preferences
prior to the Series C Preferred Stock in any manner, including, without
limitation, as to dividends or liquidation; or (4) alter or change the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation in a manner that adversely affected the rights of
the Series C Preferred Stock.
The Company has certain rights to redeem shares of Series C Preferred,
beginning on the date of completion of the earlier of a registered public
offering with gross proceeds in excess of $15 million or when the closing Common
Stock price exceeds $40 per share for 15 consecutive trading days.
The holders of the Series C Preferred have been granted certain
registration rights and information rights.
