CUSIP NO. 288853104
The following constitutes Amendment No. 8 to the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons (the “Amendment No. 8”). The Schedule 13D is hereinafter amended as specifically set forth herein.
| Item 2. | Identity and Background. |
Item 2 is hereby amended to add the following:
In connection with the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub and each of Mary Ellen Kanoff, Scott A. LaPorta and Matthew McEvoy are no longer members of the Section 13(d) group and shall cease to be Reporting Persons immediately upon the filing of this Amendment No. 8. The remaining Reporting Persons will continue filing as a group, statements on Schedule 13D, with respect to their beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. Each of the remaining Reporting Persons is party to the Joint Filing Agreement, as further described in Item 6 below.
| Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
Item 4 is hereby incorporated in its entirety into this Item 3. The Shares acquired by Parent were acquired pursuant to the Rollover Agreements and the Merger Agreement for an aggregate value of approximately $437 million.
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On October 22, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. In connection with the Merger, each Share beneficially owned immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) by George Feldenkreis, Oscar Feldenkreis and Fanny Hanono was contributed to Parent in exchange for a pro rata share of the equity of Parent. At the Effective Time, each Share of the Issuer owned immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than the Shares owned by Parent, the Issuer, or those who have properly demanded appraisal rights in accordance with applicable law, was converted into the right to receive $27.50 in cash (the “merger consideration”), without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
The Merger was financed through equity provided by the Rollover Participants, a Senior Secured Asset Backed Revolving Loan Facility underwritten by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., PNC Capital Markets LLC and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, and a multi-tranche term financing facility provided by funds managed by affiliates of Fortress Investment Group., on substantially similar terms as set forth in the Rollover Agreements, Fortress Financing Commitment and Wells Financing Commitment, each of which were previously filed with Amendment No. 7.
The Reporting Persons intend to deregister the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as practicable.
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
| 6 |
CUSIP NO. 288853104
(a) The aggregate percentage of Shares reported to be beneficially owned by each Reporting Person named herein is based upon 2,988,144 Shares outstanding as of October 22, 2018. As a result of the consummation of the Merger, each Share beneficially owned immediately prior to the Effective Time by George Feldenkreis, Oscar Feldenkreis and Fanny Hanono was contributed to Parent in exchange for a pro rata share of the equity of Parent. Accordingly, following the consummation of the Merger and as of the close of business on October 22, 2018, Parent owns directly 2,988,144 Shares, which in the aggregate represents 100% of the outstanding Shares. See also the cover pages of each Reporting Person.
(b) See cover pages of each Reporting Person.
(c) Except for the cancellation of 3,974 restricted Shares beneficially owned by George Feldenkreis and the cancellation of 151,831 restricted Shares beneficially owned by Oscar Feldenkreis, in each case on October 22, 2018, there were no transactions in the Shares by any Reporting Person in the past sixty days.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
| Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:
The information set forth in or incorporated by reference into Items 3 and 4 above is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
| Item 7. | Material to be Filed as Exhibits. |
Item 7 is hereby amended to add the following exhibits:
