subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with
respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase
Agreement"), dated as of April 21, 1994, between the Company and Island Trading
(a copy of which, including exhibits, was filed in paper format as Exhibit 1 and
is incorporated herein by reference), Island Trading acquired from the Company
on such date (i) 2,500,000 newly-issued shares of Common Stock, (ii) an
immediately exercisable option to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $2.00 per share expiring on April 20, 1995, (iii) an
immediately exercisable option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $5.00 per share expiring on April 20, 1996 and (iv) an
immediately exercisable option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $6.00 per share expiring on April 20, 1997 ((ii), (iii) and
(iv) collectively, the "Options"). The aggregate purchase price paid by Island
Trading was $5,000,000, which was provided from working capital.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The shares of Common Stock and the Options beneficially owned
by Island Trading on the date of this Statement were acquired for investment by
Island Trading.
Island Trading may from time to time acquire additional shares
of Common Stock and Options through open market or privately negotiated
transactions depending on existing market conditions and other considerations
discussed below. Island Trading intends to review its investment in the Company
on a continuing basis and, depending upon the price and availability of the
Common Stock and Options, subsequent developments affecting the Company, the
Company's business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities
available, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and
other factors considered relevant, may decide at any time to increase, or to
decrease, the size of its investment in the Company.
Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration
Rights Agreement"), dated as of April 21, 1994, between the Company and Island
Trading, Island Trading was granted certain demand and piggyback registration
rights with
<PAGE>5
respect to the shares of Common Stock and the 500,000 shares
of Common Stock underlying the $2.00 Options, as well as certain piggyback
registration rights with respect to the 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock
underlying the $5.00 and $6.00 Options.
Pursuant to a Consulting Agreement (the "Consulting
Agreement"), dated as of April 21, 1994, between the Company and Island Trading,
Island Trading agreed to provide the Company with music and merchandising
consulting services as well as assistance in developing its programming and
on-air look for a term of two years. In exchange for Island Trading's services,
the Company agreed to pay Island Trading a monthly fee of $20,833, payable in
three-month installments either in cash or shares of Common Stock at the sole
discretion of the Company. If the Company decides to pay Island Trading in
shares of Common Stock, the number of shares will be determined by taking the
average of the closing bid and asked prices of the shares of Common Stock over a
period of sixty consecutive business days preceding the end of each three-month
period.
Pursuant to and as a condition of the Stock Purchase
Agreement, Chris Blackwell, a consultant to Island Trading, was appointed to the
Company's Board of Directors on April 21, 1994.
Pursuant to a Lease Agreement (the "Lease Agreement"), dated
as of April 21, 1994, between the Company and Island Trading, the Company agreed
to lease from Island Trading approximately 16,000 square feet of space in two
adjoining premises in South Beach, Miami Beach, Florida. The term of the lease
is for seven years, which term commences upon the substantial completion of the
premises by Island Trading. Payment of rent by the Company commences six months
thereafter at a base rental rate of $22.00 per square foot for the first year of
the lease term and ranging up to $39.00 per square foot for the seventh and
final year of the lease term. The base rental rate does not include certain
operating expenses to be borne by the Company for the entire term of the lease
and capped for the first three years of the lease term. After the second year of
the lease, the Company has agreed to lease an additional 1,800 square feet in
one of the premises at a base rental rate of $13.00 per square foot (not
including the operating expenses referred to above) with a $.50 per square foot
escalation each year thereafter. Under the Lease Agreement, the Company has the
right to renew the lease subject to the negotiation of a new rental rate.
Pursuant to a Tag-Along Agreement (the "Tag-Along Agreement"),
dated as of April 21, 1994, by and among Island Trading, CEA Investors
Partnership II, Ltd. ("CEA II, Ltd."), StarNet Interactive Entertainment, Inc.
("StarNet") and StarNet/CEA II Partners ("StarNet/CEA"), Island Trading was
granted the right, under certain circumstances in which (i) shares of Common
Stock held by StarNet/CEA or (ii) interests in
<PAGE>6
StarNet/CEA, StarNet or CEA II, Ltd., are to be sold, to
include a proportionate number of shares of Common Stock held by Island Trading
in such sale on the same terms and conditions on which StarNet/CEA proposes to
sell the shares of Common Stock held by it or the appropriate party proposes to
sell its interests in StarNet/CEA, StarNet or CEA II, Ltd. (the "Tag-Along
Rights"). Reciprocal Tag-Along Rights were granted by Island Trading to
StarNet/CEA, StarNet and CEA II, Ltd. with respect to (i) the sale by Island
Trading of shares of Common Stock purchased from the Company or held upon
exercise of the Options or (ii) the sale of interests in a limited purpose
Island Trading affiliate holding such Common Stock. The reciprocal Tag-Along
Rights granted by Island Trading are effective upon the earlier of (i) April 21,
1995 or (ii) the date Island Trading has exercised Options for no less than
500,000 shares of Common Stock. StarNet/CEA agreed to vote its shares of Common
Stock in favor of Chris Blackwell or such other Island Trading designee to the
Board of Directors of the Company as is reasonably acceptable.
Island Trading has determined to dispose of a portion of its
interest in the Company's common stock held by it in a proposed sale thereof to
Liberty Purchaser and to grant to Liberty Purchaser options for the purchase of
and irrevocable proxies for the voting of additional shares of the Company's
common stock. The StarNet Group and Liberty Media have negotiated the Letter
Agreement describing the details of the proposed transaction, a copy of which is
filed with this Statement as Exhibit 2.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer.
On April 21, 1996, Island Trading's immediately exercisable
option to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$5.00 per share expired. As a result of the expiration of such option, each of
Island Trading, Island International and the Island Trust may be deemed to
beneficially own 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 14.62% of
the Common Stock outstanding (based on approximately 23,944,281 shares
outstanding as of May 13, 1996), consisting of 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock
(or approximately 10.44% of the Common Stock outstanding) and Options to
purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per
share. For purposes of Sections 13(d) and (g) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, each of Island International and the Island Trust disclaims beneficial
ownership of any securities covered by this Statement. Island Trading, Island
International and the Island Trust have shared voting and dispositive power over
the Common Stock and Options held by Island Trading.
If the proposed transaction is consummated as contemplated by
the Letter Agreement, Island Trading's participation as permitted under, and
pursuant to, the Tag Along Agreement would be approximately as follows:
<PAGE>7
Anticipated Number of
Anticipated Number of Shares Covered by
Shares to be Sold Options and Proxies
833,333 833,333
Upon closing of the proposed transaction (including the shares
subject to the options and proxies), Island Trading would have
beneficial ownership of approximately 1,833,334 shares of which it has shared
voting power and shared dispositive power.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer.
Other than the Registration Rights Agreement, the Consulting
Agreement, the Lease Agreement and the Tag-Along Agreement, each as described in
response to Item 4 (which response is incorporated herein by reference), and the
Letter Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereby, there are no
contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between Island Trading,
Island International or the Island Trust and any other person, or, to the best
knowledge of Island Trading, among any of the persons listed on Annex A or
between any of the persons listed on Annex A and any other person, with respect
to securities of the Company.
As noted above, the StarNet Group has entered into the Letter
Agreement with Liberty Purchaser, pursuant to which Liberty Purchaser has agreed
to purchase certain outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. Island
Trading is participating in the proposed transaction to the fullest extent
permissible under, and pursuant to, the Tag Along Agreement. The details of the
proposed transaction are contained in the Letter Agreement, a copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 2, and which is hereby incorporated by reference.
