CUSIP No. 30162V102 |
The information in this Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (this Third Amendment or this 13D/A) amends the Schedule 13D (the Initial Schedule 13D) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC ) by Mr. Par Chadha, HandsOn Global Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( HGM ), Ex-Sigma 2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( Ex-Sigma 2 ), Ex-Sigma LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( Ex-Sigma ), HOVS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( HOVS ), HandsOn Fund 4 I, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ( HOF 4 ), HOV Capital III, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ( HOV 3 ), HOV Services Ltd., an Indian limited company ( HOV Services ), Adesi 234 LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ( Adesi ), HOF 2 LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ( HOF 2 and together with Mr. Chadha, Ex-Sigma, Ex-Sigma 2, HGM, HOVS, HOV Services, HOF 4, HOV 3, and Adesi, the Initial Reporting Persons ) on July 24, 2017, relating to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Common Stock ), of Exela Technologies, Inc. (the Issuer ), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed by the Initial Reporting Persons on April 16, 2018 and Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by the Initial Reporting Persons on June 20, 2018 (the Prior Amendments).
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows:
The Reporting Persons believe that the market value of the Shares does not reflect their intrinsic value and are taking steps, including discussions with third parties and potential financing sources, in order to make a definitive proposal for a transaction in which the Reporting Persons and/or one or more third parties would acquire all of the outstanding Common Stock not presently owned by the Reporting Persons (a Take-Private).
One of the Reporting Persons has entered into an Engagement Letter, dated May 2, 2019, with an investment bank to represent such Reporting Person in connection to an ongoing discussion with a third party relating to a Take-Private transaction. Further, HGM and certain other Reporting Persons have also been approached by other parties seeking to discuss possible transactions relating to the Issuer, including a Take-Private.
In addition, the Reporting Persons are taking steps intended to reduce their exposure to the Loans that are secured by the Pledged Shares. These steps may include, refinancing or paying down the Loans, purchasing some or all of the Loans from the Lenders, posting additional collateral and/or selling an amount of the Pledged Shares.
The Reporting Persons regularly review the Issuers business, performance, financial condition, results of operations and anticipated future developments and prospects, as well as general economic conditions and existing and anticipated market and industry conditions and trends affecting the Issuer. As a result of these or other factors, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, and reserve the right to, acquire additional shares or sell shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
The Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their intentions with respect to any future acquisitions or dispositions of shares of Common Stock
