The aggregate purchase price of the 157,500 shares of Common Stock beneficially held by American Opportunity Trust is $1,036,157 (exclusive of brokerage fees and commissions). All of the shares of Common Stock beneficially held by American Opportunity Trust were paid for using its working capital funds.
The aggregate purchase price of the 111,660 shares of Common Stock beneficially held by Trident North Atlantic is $710,457 (exclusive of brokerage fees and commissions). All of the shares of Common Stock beneficially held by Trident North Atlantic were paid for using its working capital funds.
The aggregate purchase price of the 95,940 shares of Common Stock beneficially held by private clients of J O Hambro Capital Management is $610,621 (exclusive of brokerage fees and commissions). All of the shares of Common Stock beneficially held by such private clients were paid for using their working capital funds.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Filing Parties believe that the shares of Common Stock of the Company are undervalued and represent an attractive investment opportunity and they are considering pursuing any and all of the actions enumerated below.
The Filing Parties may take such actions with respect to their investment in the Company as they deem appropriate, including without limitation: (i) having open communications with the Companys management in order to monitor their efforts to increase shareholder value, (ii) purchasing additional shares of Common Stock in the open market or otherwise, (iii) seeking a change of control of the Company through various means, including without limitation, an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or recapitalization, (iv) seeking to amend the Companys charter and by-laws, (v) seeking to elect a slate of directors to the Companys board of directors, (vi) presenting proposals for stockholders consideration at an annual or special meeting of the Companys stockholders and (vii) reviewing the Companys securities filings for compliance with federal securities laws and, where appropriate, making referrals to the SEC.
On June 30, 2003, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing that it had filed a lawsuit in federal district court in Los Angeles against the Filing Parties, Acquisitor Holdings (Bermuda) Ltd. and Executive Air Support, Inc. alleging that the Filing Parties and the other defendants had made false and/or misleading statements in SEC filings and misused proprietary, confidential and trade secret information in an attempt to take control of the Companys assets. Following a review of the action filed by the Company, the Filing Parties intend to vigorously defend themselves against these claims.
The Filing Parties believe that the current corporate governance of the Company relating to its officers falls well short of acceptable practice. The Filing Parties intend to thoroughly investigate what appears to be a pattern of self-dealing by members of the Companys board of
Page 9 of 22
directors by which certain individuals have engaged in a scheme to enrich themselves at the Companys expense and, depending on the findings of their investigation, the Filing Parties may commence litigation.
In light of the current corporate governance of the Company, the Filing Parties are considering means by which some or all of the directors may be removed from the board of directors.
In addition, the Filing Parties believe it is in the interest of all shareholders if either the current board or a new board immediately appoint an independent firm of investment bankers to find ways to maximize shareholder value.
The Filing Parties may also sell some or all of their shares of Common Stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, or change their intention with respect to any and all of the matters referred to above.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a)-(b) The aggregate number and percentage of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned (i) by each of the Filing Parties, and (ii) to the knowledge of the Filing Parties, by each other person who may be deemed to be a member of the group, is as follows:
