This Final Amendment, dated March 13, 2000, amends the Schedule 13D filed
on June 15, 1998 (together, the "Schedule") and relates to the beneficial
ownership of Waller-Sutton Media Partners, L.P. ("Waller-Sutton") and its sole
general partner, Waller-Sutton Media, L.L.C. ("Waller-LLC"), of the Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series C Preferred Stock") of Regent
Communications, Inc. (the "Issuer").
ITEM 4. Purpose of Transaction.
(e) On January 28, 2000, the Issuer completed a public offering of its
common stock par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock") with gross proceeds
totaling $156,400,000 (the "Offering"). Pursuant to the terms of the Third
Amended and Restated Stockholders' Agreement of the Issuer, dated December 13,
1999 (the "Stockholders Agreement") and the relevant provisions of the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer, upon consummation of the Offering,
each outstanding share of the Series C preferred stock, as well as each share of
Series D, F, G, H and K preferred stock, was converted into one share of Common
Stock (the "Conversion").
ITEM 5. Interests in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) After the Conversion, Waller-Sutton and Waller-LLC are no longer the
holders of record and can not be deemed to "beneficially own," within the
meaning of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, any shares of the Series C
Preferred Stock of the Issuer. Waller-Sutton and Waller-LLC beneficially own
3,141,554 shares of Common Stock, which consist of (i) 2,491,554 shares of
Common Stock (400,640 shares issued upon the conversion of its Series C
Preferred Stock, 2,000,005 shares issued upon the conversion of the Series F
Preferred Stock held by Waller-Sutton and 90,909 shares issued upon the
conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock held by Waller-Sutton) and (ii)
650,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of a warrant (the
"Warrant") issued to Waller-Sutton under a purchase agreement, dated June 15,
1998.
William H. Ingram, a member and Chairman of Waller-LLC and a limited
partner of Waller-Sutton, serves as a Director on the Board of Directors of the
Issuer and beneficially owns 100,000 shares of Common Stock and a warrant to
purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock. Waller-Sutton disclaims beneficial
ownership of such shares of Common Stock. In addition, Mr. Ingram disclaims
beneficial ownership of all the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock owned by
Waller-Sutton. Richard H. Patterson, a member of Waller-LLC and a limited
partner of Waller-Sutton, also serves as a Director on the Board of Directors
of the Issuer and disclaims beneficial ownership of all the shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock owned by Waller-Sutton.
(b) After the Conversion, Waller-Sutton and Waller-LLC no longer
beneficially own any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock. Waller-Sutton has
the sole power to vote all 2,491,554 shares of Common Stock and upon the
exercise of the Warrant, Waller-Sutton would also have the sole power to vote
all 650,000 additional shares of Common Stock.
(c) The terms of the Stockholders Agreement and the relevant provisions of
the Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer, provide that each share of
Series C preferred stock, as well as each share of Series D, F, G, H and K
preferred stock, would be converted into one share of Common Stock, upon the
closing of a public offering of Common Stock with gross proceeds to the
- Page 4 of 7 Pages -
<PAGE>
Issuer of at least $50,000,000, a per share price of at least $6.50 and provided
that the public offering occurred prior to June 15, 2000. On January 28, 2000,
the Issuer completed the Offering which had gross proceeds to the Issuer,
totaling $156,400,000 and a per share price of $8.50. Pursuant to the
Stockholders Agreement and the Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer, on
January 28, 2000, upon the closing of the Offering, each share of the Series C
Preferred Stock was converted into one share of Common Stock.
Additionally, upon completion of the Offering and pursuant to the terms of
the Stockholders Agreement, a five member executive committee (the "Executive
Committee") was created as part of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the
"Board"). Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, Mr. Ingram and
Mr. Patterson were made members of the Executive Committee as designees of
Waller-Sutton. The Executive Committee has the power to review and make
recommendations to the Board regarding the advisability of taking certain
actions. In the event that the Executive Committee recommends that the Board
approve any such action, the Board may approve or reject such action by a vote
of the majority of the voting directors. In the event the Executive Committee
votes not to recommend any such action or fails to provide a recommendation, the
Board may only approve such action with the affirmative vote of no less than
two-thirds of the total number of directors of the Board. The existence of the
Executive Committee shall terminate on the earlier of the third anniversary of
its creation or on the affirmative vote of three-fourths of the total number of
directors of the Board.
(d) not applicable
(e) After the Conversion, Waller-Sutton and Waller-LLC no longer
beneficially own any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock. Thus, on January
28, 2000, the Reporting Person ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than
five percent of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Issuer. This
constitutes the final Amendment to the Reporting Person's Schedule regarding the
Series C Preferred Stock of the Issuer.
