Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

In connection with the Merger, on April 8, 2013, SCG entered into various transaction-related agreements (collectively, the “ Related Agreements ”) including the following:

 

 

(i)

Lock-Up Agreements with RMG’s former principal stockholders and lenders, pursuant to which such former principal stockholders and lenders agreed not to transfer or dispose of the Stock Consideration received by them in the Merger for a period ending on the earlier of (a) the one year anniversary of the issuance of the Stock Consideration or (b) the date that SCG consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in SCG’s stockholders having the right to exchange their SCG Common Shares for cash, securities or other property;

 

 

(ii)

Registration Rights Agreements with certain of RMG’s former stockholders and lenders, pursuant to which SCG agreed to register the SCG Common Shares held by such stockholders and lenders according to the terms and conditions contained therein; and

 

 

(iii)

an Escrow Agreement with Wilmington Trust, N.A. (the “ Escrow Agent ”) and the Stockholder Representative with respect to the Escrow Account (as defined below).

 

The description of each of such Related Agreements contained in the Offer to Purchase and supplemented by the Schedule TO, in the section entitled “Related Agreements,” is incorporated herein by reference. The summary of each of such Related Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Related Agreements attached as Exhibits 10.16 through 10.19 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

On April 8, 2013, the Company entered into Amendment No 1 to the Merger Agreement to revise the consideration payable in respect of RMG’s Series C Preferred Stock to include $10,000 in cash consideration (in addition to the Stock Consideration described in Item 2.01 below).

 

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

The information set forth in the Introduction of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 2.01 by reference. The summary of the Merger Agreement contained in the Offer to Purchase under the caption “The Merger Agreement” is incorporated herein by this reference. The description of the terms of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 2.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

At the effective time of the Merger (the “ Effective Time ”), the former holders of RMG’s outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock became entitled to receive (i) 400,000 SCG Common Shares (collectively, the “ Stock Consideration ”), of which 300,000 SCG Common Shares were deposited in an escrow account (the “ Escrow Account ”) with the Escrow Agent, (ii) $10,000 in cash, payable pro rata to the former holders of SCG’s Series C Preferred Stock, and (iii) $10,000 in cash, all of which was deposited in the Escrow Account to be used to reimburse the Stockholder Representative for any losses the Stockholder Representative might incur pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. Additionally, at the closing of the Merger, SCG paid, on behalf of RMG and its subsidiaries, all indebtedness of RMG Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of RMG. The aggregate amount of indebtedness repaid was equal to $23,500,000 (consisting of $21,000,000 in cash and 250,000 SCG Common Shares). For more information regarding the consideration to be paid to RMG’s former stockholders as a result of the Merger, see the information included in the Offer to Purchase under the caption “The Merger Agreement—Structure of the Transaction; Consideration to be Paid.”

 

As previously disclosed, pursuant to an Equity Commitment Letter, dated December 14, 2012 (the “ Equity Commitment Letter ”), between SCG and 2012 DOOH Investments, LLC (“ DOOH ”), which was subsequently assigned by DOOH to DRW Commodities, LLC (“ DRW ”) pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2012 (the “ Assignment Agreement ”), DRW purchased 2,354,450 SCG Common Shares in privately negotiated transactions at a price per SCG Common Share that did not exceed $10.02 per SCG Common Share (the “ DRW Public Shares ”) and was thereafter issued an additional 120,000 SCG Common Shares by SCG as consideration for such purchases (the “ Additional DRW Shares ”, and, together with the DRW Public Shares, the “ DRW Shares ”). Pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter, the Assignment Agreement and related agreements, DRW agreed not to tender the DRW Shares in the Offer and further waived its redemption rights in the event of SCG’s liquidation with respect to the Additional DRW Shares. This commitment by DOOH and DRW was designed to provide SCG with sufficient financial resources to consummate the Merger regardless of the number of shares tendered in the Offer (defined below). Donald R. Wilson, Jr., a member of SCG Financial Holdings, LLC, which is SCG’s sponsor, and the beneficial owner of approximately 69.7% of the outstanding SCG Common Shares, has voting and dispositive control over the DRW Shares.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that all of its directors, officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to be indemnified by us to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “ DGCL ”).

 

Section 145 of the DGCL concerning indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents is set forth below.

 

Section 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance.

 

(a)     A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

 

(b)     A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(c)     To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

 

(d)     Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.

 

(e)     Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former officers and directors or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

 

(f)     The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the certificate of incorporation or a bylaw shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.

 

(g)     A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under this section.

 

(h)     For purposes of this section, references to “the corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

 

(i)     For purposes of this section, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this section.

 

(j)     The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

(k)     The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a corporation’s obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees).

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to SCG’s directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, SCG has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the registration of securities, SCG will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to the court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that no director shall be personally liable to SCG or any of its stockholders for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, except to the extent such limitation on or exemption from liability is not permitted under the DGCL. The effect of this provision of SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation is to eliminate SCG’s rights and those of SCG’s stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on SCG’s behalf) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director, including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior, except, as restricted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL. However, this provision does not limit or eliminate SCG’s rights or the rights of any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief, such as an injunction or rescission, in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care.

 

If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the liability of directors, then, in accordance with SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the liability of SCG’s directors to SCG or its stockholders will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal or amendment of provisions of SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation limiting or eliminating the liability of directors, whether by SCG’s stockholders or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits SCG to further limit or eliminate the liability of directors on a retroactive basis.

 

SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation also provides that SCG will, to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, indemnify its current and former officers and directors, as well as those persons who, while directors or officers of SCG, are or were serving as directors, officers, employees or agents of another entity, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by any such person in connection with any such proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person eligible for indemnification pursuant to SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will be indemnified by SCG in connection with a proceeding initiated by such person only if such proceeding was authorized by SCG’s board of directors, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification.

 

The right to indemnification conferred by SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation is a contract right that includes the right to be paid by SCG the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding referenced above in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an SCG officer or director (solely in the capacity as an officer or director of SCG) will be made only upon delivery to SCG of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such officer or director, to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or otherwise.

 

The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which any person covered by SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation may have or hereafter acquire under law, SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, SCG’s amended and restated bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

 

Any repeal or amendment of provisions of SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation affecting indemnification rights, whether by SCG’s stockholders or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits us to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis, and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision. SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation also permits SCG, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other that those specifically covered by SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

 

 
9

 

 

SCG’s amended and restated bylaws, which were adopted immediately prior to the closing of SCG’s initial public offering, include the provisions relating to advancement of expenses and indemnification rights consistent with those set forth in SCG’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In addition, SCG’s amended and restated bylaws provide for a right of indemnitee to bring a suit in the event a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses is not paid in full by SCG within a specified period of time. SCG’s amended and restated bylaws also permit SCG to purchase and maintain insurance, at SCG’s expense, to protect SCG and/or any director, officer, employee or agent of SCG or another entity, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not SCG would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

 

Any repeal or amendment of provisions of SCG’s amended and restated bylaws affecting indemnification rights, whether by SCG’s board of directors, stockholders or by changes in applicable law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits SCG to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis, and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing thereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

 

SCG intends to enter into indemnification agreements with each of its officers and directors. These agreements will require SCG to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to SCG, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

 

The information included in the Offer to Purchase under the caption “Material Differences in the Rights of SCG Stockholders Following the Transaction” is incorporated into this Item 3.03 by reference.

 

Item 5.01. Changes in Control of Registrant.

 

As previously announced, SCG has completed its tender offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding SCG Common Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per SCG Common Share, net to the seller in cash without interest, upon the terms and conditions contained in the Offer to Purchase, as supplemented by the Schedule TO, and the Third Amended and Restated Letter of Transmittal filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(V) to the Schedule TO (which together, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitute the “ Offer ”). The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time, on April 5, 2013. A total of 4,551,228 SCG Common Shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Offer and the Company accepted for purchase and paid for all SCG Common Shares validly tendered in the Offer. As a result of the acquisition of such SCG Common Shares by SCG in the Offer, the number of SCG Common Shares outstanding decreased by 4,551,228. In addition, as a result of the completion of the Merger, 4,000,000 warrants previously issued to the Sponsor will become exercisable within 30 days of April 8, 2013. As a result, each of the Sponsor and Donald R. Wilson, Jr. became the beneficial owner of approximately 56.7% and 69.7%, respectively, of the outstanding SCG Common Shares as of April 8, 2013. These transactions did not involve the purchase of additional SCG Common Shares by the Sponsor or Mr. Wilson, and thus no additional consideration was provided by the Sponsor or Mr. Wilson in connection with the change in control other than the consideration initially paid for the SCG Common Shares and Warrants held by them. See “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities” in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

Effective as of the Effective Time of the Merger, each of Kenneth B. Leonard, Donna Parlapiano and Frederick L. White resigned as members of our Board of Directors. In addition, upon the Effective Time of the Merger, Mr. Sachs ceased to be Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of SCG and was appointed to serve as Executive Chairman of SCG. None of the foregoing resignations was a result of any disagreement between SCG and any of the above named directors.

 

Effective as of immediately following the Effective Time, Garry K. McGuire was appointed to serve as Chief Executive Officer and director of SCG. In addition, effective as of immediately following the Effective Time, each of Jeffrey Hayzlett, Alan Swimmer and Jonathan Trutter was appointed to serve as a member of SCG’s board of directors. The information regarding Messrs. McGuire, Hayzlett, Swimmer and Trutter under the caption “Directors and Executive Officers” if Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference.

Exhibit 2.2

 

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

 

This Amendment No. 1, dated as of April 8, 2013, to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“ Amendment No. 1 ”) is entered into by and among SCG Financial Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ Parent ”), SCG Financial Merger II Corp., a Delaware corporation and an indirect subsidiary of Parent (“ Merger Sub ”), Reach Media Group Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Target ”), and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, solely in its capacity as Stockholder Representative (the “ Stockholder Representative ”). Parent, Merger Sub and Target are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “ Party ” and collectively as the “ Parties ”.

 

WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub, and Target are parties to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 11, 2013 (the “ Agreement ”)

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the Parties hereby agree to amend the Agreement pursuant to section 6.3 thereof, effective on the date hereof, as follows:

 

 

1.

Amendments to the Agreement.

 

 

(a)

Section 1.6(c) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(c)      Conversion of Target Series C Stock . Each share of Target Series C Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and subject to Section 1.6(b) above) shall be converted and exchanged, without any action on the part of the holders thereof, into the right to receive (i) the Series C Per Share Upfront Merger Consideration, and (ii) subject to, and in accordance with ARTICLE VII and the Escrow Agreement, the Series C Per Share Escrow Consideration (the Series C Per Share Upfront Merger Consideration and the Series C Per Share Escrow Consideration, collectively, the “ Series C Stock Consideration ”) and the Per Share Escrow Cash Consideration. The “ Series C Per Share Upfront Merger Consideration ” shall be equal to (i) $10,000 and (ii) eighty five thousand (85,000) shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Parent (“ Parent Common Stock ”) divided by the number of shares of Target Series C Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. The “ Series C Per Share Escrow Consideration ” shall be equal to (i) three hundred thousand (300,000) shares of Parent Common Stock (the “ Escrow Consideration ”) less the number of shares of Parent Common Stock paid from the Escrow Fund to Parent (or withheld pending the resolution of unresolved claims) pursuant to ARTICLE VII and the Escrow Agreement, multiplied by (ii) 0.85 (such product, the “ Aggregate Series C Escrow Consideration ”), divided by (iii) the number of shares of Target Series C Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. The “ Per Share Escrow Cash Consideration ” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7.8(c) .

 

2.      Mutual Drafting. This Amendment is the joint product of the Parties and each provision hereof has been subject to mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of such parties and shall not be construed for or against any party hereto.

 

3.      No Other Amendments; Governing Law; Counterparts. Except as specifically set forth in this Amendment, there are no other amendments to the Agreement and the Agreement shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the state of New York. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned such terms in Section 8 hereof.


WHEREAS, the Company is party to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 11, 2013 (the “ Merger Agreement ”), by and among the Company, SCG Financial Merger II Corp., a Delaware corporation and an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“ Merger Sub ”), Reach Media Group Holdings, Inc.

WHEREAS, following the consummation of the Merger, the Stockholders will own 400,000 shares of Common Stock; and


WHEREAS, in order to induce the Stockholders to ratify and approve the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide the Stockholders with the registration rights set forth in this Agreement.


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:


1.               Demand Registrations .


(a)            Requests for Registration . At any time following January 11, 2014, the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any successor form, or if such form is not then available to the Company, Form S-1 (a “ Demand Registration ”), which may if so requested be a “shelf” registration under Rule 415 under the Securities Act. A request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered. Within ten (10) days after receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) Business Days after the delivery of the Company’s notice.


(b)           Number . The holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities shall be entitled to request (i) one (1) Demand Registration in which the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses and (ii) an unlimited number of Demand Registrations in which the holders of Registrable Securities shall pay their share of the Registration Expenses as set forth in Section 5 hereof. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make Demand Registrations on Form S-3 available for the sale of Registrable Securities.


(c)            Priority on Demand Registration . Except for shares of Common Stock required to be included pursuant to the piggyback registration rights under the Other Registration Rights Agreements, the Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requesting such registration. If a Demand Registration relates to an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within the price range acceptable to the holders of a majority of the requesting Registrable Securities, without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration, prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder.


(d)            Selection of Underwriters . With respect to a request for registration pursuant to Section 1(a) which is for an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter shall be chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering and approved by the Company (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(a)            Right to Piggyback . Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, pursuant to a Demand Registration (other than in connection with registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form) and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “ Piggyback Registration ”), the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event within three (3) Business Days prior to the filing of the registration statement relating to such registration) to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) calendar days after the delivery of the Company’s notice.

(c)            Priority on Primary Registrations . If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Registration Rights Agreements which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.


(d)            Priority on Secondary Registrations . If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration, and the managing underwriters advise such party and the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to such party and the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the Company, (ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Registration Rights Agreements which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.


(e)            Selection of Underwriters . If any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary offering, the selection of investment banker(s) and manager(s) for the offering shall be approved by the Company.


(f)             Other Registrations . If the Company has previously filed a registration statement pursuant to this Agreement or any Other Registration Rights Agreement, and if such previous registration has not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company shall not file or cause to be effected any other registration of any of its equity securities or securities convertible exchangeable into or exercisable for its equity securities under the Securities Act (except on Form S-8 or any successor form), whether on its own behalf or at the request of any holder or holders of such securities, until a period of at least ninety (90) days has elapsed from the effective date of such previous registration.

In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities.

(c)            Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in the Company’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Company a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.


(d)            The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities.

(e)            If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under the provisions above in respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant the registered offering of securities as to which indemnity is sought but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other in connection with the statement or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that the obligation to contribute shall be individual, not joint and several, for each contributing party and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such contributing party from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the Company bear to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether such untrue or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, by the sellers of Registrable Securities or other sellers participating in the registration statement and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT


This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) is made and entered into as of April 8, 2013 by and among SCG Financial Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”) and the parties set forth on the attached Schedule of Stockholders (each, a “ Stockholder ” and collectively, the “ Stockholders ”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned such terms in Section 8 hereof.


WHEREAS, the Company is party to (i) that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 11, 2013 (the “ Merger Agreement ”), by and among the Company, SCG Financial Merger II Corp., a Delaware corporation and an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“ Merger Sub ”), Reach Media Group Holdings, Inc. (“ Target ”) and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, solely in its capacity as Stockholder Representative for and on behalf of the Target Holders thereunder, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Target, with Target being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company (the “ Merger ”) and (ii) that certain Payoff Letter referenced therein, as such letter was amended by agreement of March 26, 2013 between the Company and Obsidian Agency Services, Inc. (the " Payoff Letter Amendment "); and


WHEREAS, following the consummation of the Merger and pursuant to the terms of the Payoff Letter Amendment, the Stockholders will own 250,000 shares of Common Stock; and


WHEREAS, in order to induce Obsidian Agency Services, Inc. to enter into the Payoff Letter Amendment, the Company has agreed to provide the Stockholders with the registration rights set forth in this Agreement.


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:


1.              Demand Registrations.


(a)              Requests for Registration . At any time following January 11, 2014, the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any successor form, or if such form is not then available to the Company, Form S-1 (a “ Demand Registration ”), which may if so requested be a “shelf” registration under Rule 415 under the Securities Act. A request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered. Within ten (10) days after receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) Business Days after the delivery of the Company’s notice.


(b)              Number . The holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities shall be entitled to request (i) one (1) Demand Registration in which the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses and (ii) an unlimited number of Demand Registrations in which the holders of Registrable Securities shall pay their share of the Registration Expenses as set forth in Section 5 hereof. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make Demand Registrations on Form S-3 available for the sale of Registrable Securities.


(c)              Priority on Demand Registration . Except for shares of Common Stock required to be included pursuant to the piggyback registration rights under the Other Registration Rights Agreements, the Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requesting such registration. If a Demand Registration relates to an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within the price range acceptable to the holders of a majority of the requesting Registrable Securities, without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder.


(d)             Selection of Underwriters . With respect to a request for registration pursuant to Section 1(a) which is for an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter shall be chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering and approved by the Company (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

 

 

 

2.               Piggyback Registrations.


(a)              Right to Piggyback . Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, pursuant to a Demand Registration (other than in connection with registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form) and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “ Piggyback Registration ”), the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event within three (3) Business Days prior to the filing of the registration statement relating to such registration) to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) calendar days after the delivery of the Company’s notice.


(b)              Piggyback Expenses . The Registration Expenses of the holders of Registrable Securities shall be paid by the Company in all Piggyback Registrations.


(c)              Priority on Primary Registrations . If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Registration Rights Agreements which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.


(d)              Priority on Secondary Registrations . If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration, and the managing underwriters advise such party and the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to such party and the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities (if any) the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Registration Rights Agreements which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.


(e)              Selection of Underwriters . If any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary offering, the selection of investment banker(s) and manager(s) for the offering shall be approved by the Company.


(f)               Other Registrations . If the Company has previously filed a registration statement pursuant to this Agreement or any Other Registration Rights Agreement, and if such previous registration has not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company shall not file or cause to be effected any other registration of any of its equity securities or securities convertible exchangeable into or exercisable for its equity securities under the Securities Act (except on Form S-8 or any successor form), whether on its own behalf or at the request of any holder or holders of such securities, until a period of at least ninety (90) days has elapsed from the effective date of such previous registration.


3.               Market Standoff Agreement.


(a)              Each Stockholder agrees that, if requested by the managing underwriter in connection with any follow-on public offering of the Company’s equity securities, such Stockholder will not effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period of time requested by such managing underwriter (in no event to be in excess of 90 days) following the effective date of such offering (except as part of such underwritten registration), unless the underwriters managing such offering otherwise agree.


(b)              The Company (i) shall not effect any public sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven (7) days prior to and during the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten public offering of the Company’s equity securities (except as part of such underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree, and (ii) shall cause each holder of its Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Common Stock, purchased from the Company at any time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered public offering) to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of any such securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise permitted), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree.

(b)            In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall indemnify the other sellers of securities included in such registration and the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in (or incorporated by reference therein) the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements herein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such holder; provided that the obligation to indemnify shall be individual, not joint and several, for each holder.


(c)            Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in the Company’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Company a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.


(d)            The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities. The Company also agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party, for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.


(e)            If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under the provisions above in respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant the registered offering of securities as to which indemnity is sought but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other in connection with the statement or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that the obligation to contribute shall be individual, not joint and several, for each contributing party and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such contributing party from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the Company bear to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether such untrue or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, by the sellers of Registrable Securities or other sellers participating in the registration statement and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

 

7.              PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS . No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided that no holder of Registrable Securities included any underwritten registration shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such holder and such holder’s intended method of distribution) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Section 6 hereof.

SCG Financial Acquisition Corp. Announces Successful Completion of its Business Combination with Reach Media Group Holdings, Inc.


 

CHICAGO, IL and SAN FRANCISCO, CA – April 8, 2013 – SCG Financial Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:SCGQ) (OTCBB: SCGQU) (OTCBB: SCGQW) (SCG), announced today it has successfully completed its business combination with Reach Media Group Holdings, Inc. (RMG Networks), a leading digital signage media and technology company. Going forward, SCG will do business as “RMG Networks.”


“RMG Networks CEO Garry K. McGuire and I are very excited about this new business combination. Our goal is to become a premier platform for providing customers and partners intelligent visual communications solutions and we will move swiftly to capture opportunities in this highly fragmented space,” said Gregory H. Sachs, Chairman and CEO of SCG. “In particular, RMG is well-positioned to capitalize on its existing leadership position in the fast-expanding out-of-home digital signage advertising market.”


“Our strong positions in the air-travel and shopping mall out-of-home advertising markets give RMG Networks a strong platform for growth,” said Mr. McGuire. “We believe this combination presents a significant opportunity for RMG and marks the start of an expanded business strategy to extend our footprint through organic growth, acquisitions and entry into adjacent markets. I look forward to working with Gregory and our entire team to build an exciting future for RMG Networks and its employees, customers and partners.”


It is expected that beginning on Wednesday, April 10, 2013, the stock ticker symbol for shares of SCG common stock will change from “SCGQ” to “RMGN”. SCG anticipates that payments to holders of its shares of common stock that tendered their shares will be made promptly following the closing of the business combination. SCG currently anticipates consummating the acquisition of Symon Holdings Corporation in the near term.


Lazard Frères & Co LLC is acting as exclusive financial advisor to SCG and legal counsel to SCG is Greenberg Traurig, LLP. Barclays is acting as exclusive financial advisor to RMG Networks and legal counsel to RMG Networks is Fenwick & West LLP.
