This Final Amendment to the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Final
Amendment") of the undersigned relates to the Common Stock, par value $.10 per
share, of Hilcoast Development Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").
The Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The information contained in Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented
by adding the information set forth in Item 6 below, which is incorporated
herein by reference.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
The information contained in Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented
by adding the information set forth in Item 6 below, which is incorporated
herein by reference.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Undertakings or Relationships with Respect to
Securities of the Issuer.
The information set forth in Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented
by adding the information set forth below:
On February 11, 1997, the shareholders of the Company approved an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of November 21,
1996 between the Company and FLA Acquisition Corp. ("Mergerco"), a Delaware
corporation. Mergerco was formed by the Company's Chairman of the Board, Chief
Executive Officer and largest stockholder, H. Irwin Levy, and the Stockholders.
The Merger Agreement provides for the merger (the "Merger") of Mergerco, with
and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving corporation (the
"Surviving Corporation").
Pursuant to a subscription agreement between the Stockholders and
Mergerco (the "Subscription Agreement"), on February 11, 1997, the Stockholders
transferred to Mergerco all of the 585,032 Shares of the Company's Common Stock
owned by the Stockholders in exchange for shares of the common stock of Mergerco
comprising approximately 41.2% of the equity of Mergerco. A copy of the
Subscription Agreement is filed with this Final Amendment as Exhibit 3 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
On February 12, 1997, according to the terms of the Merger Agreement,
each outstanding Share (other than Shares held by Mergerco or any subsidiary of
Mergerco, all of which were canceled, and other than shares held by dissenting
stockholders who perfected their statutory appraisal rights under Delaware law),
was converted into the right to receive $6.00 in cash, without interest. The
effect of the Merger was to convert the Company from a publicly held to a
privately held corporation wholly owned by Mr. Levy and the Stockholders. Upon
completion of the Merger the Stockholders own 41.2% of the Surviving
Corporation.
The complete terms of the transaction are set forth in the Merger
Agreement which is filed with this Final Amendment as Exhibit 4 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
