Item
1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
January 4, 2011, Bluefly, Inc. (the “Company”) and A+D
Labs LLC (“A+D
Labs,” and, together with the Company, the “Members”) entering
into a Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (the “Operating Agreement”)
in connection with the formation of Eyefly LLC (“Eyefly”), a
newly-formed Delaware limited liability company which is initially owned 52% by
the Company, and 48% by A+D Labs. Eyefly was formed for the purposes of
developing and operating an e-commerce Web site and related online and mobile
applications focused on selling fashionable prescription eyewear directly to
consumers.
Pursuant
to the Operating Agreement, the Members made an aggregate of $700,000 of initial
capital contributions ($364,000 from the Company and $336,000 from A+D Labs) and
agreed to make an additional $600,000 of capital contributions ($312,000 from
the Company and $288,000 from A+D Labs) as necessary. In addition, both
the Company and an affiliate of A+D Labs entered into Management Services
Agreements with Eyefly (the “Management Services
Agreements,” and, together with the Operating Agreement, the “Eyefly Agreements”)
pursuant to which they each agreed to provide certain services to Eyefly on a
cost basis.
Under the
terms of the Operating Agreement, the Company is entitled to appoint two members
to Eyefly’s Board of Managers, and A+D Labs is entitled to appoint one member,
subject in each case to certain ongoing ownership requirements. Decisions
are generally made by a majority of the Board of Managers, provided that the
unanimous approval of the Board of Managers is required for (a) any change to
Eyefly’s primary line of business, (b) the issuance of additional equity Units
above a certain agreed upon threshold, unless each of A+D Labs and the Company
is permitted to participate in such issuance on a pro rata basis, (c) a sale of
the company transaction, subject to an exception for a sale on or after the four
year anniversary of formation at a minimum valuation that exceeds a specified
multiple of adjusted EBITDA, (d) transactions between Eyefly and either the
Company or A+D Labs, subject to certain exceptions or (e) approval of any annual
marketing budget that has an ad to sales ratio in excess of certain agreed-upon
thresholds.
The
Operating Agreement contains customary provisions relating to tax allocations
and distributions, confidentiality, indemnification, and restrictions on
transfer of equity in Eyefly, including (without limitation) a right of first
refusal and co-sale rights. In addition, the Operating Agreement provides
the Company with an option (the “Call Option”) to
purchase A+D Labs’ equity in Eyefly on or after the four year anniversary of
formation at a valuation based on a specified multiple of adjusted EBITDA.
In the event that the Company exercises the Call Option, A+D Labs has the option
to receive the purchase price for equity in shares of the Company’s Common
Stock, provided that the total number of shares issued to A+D Labs pursuant to
such option cannot exceed 4,918,856 shares (which is less than 20% of the
outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock as of the date of the Operating
Agreement).
In
connection with the formation of Eyefly and the Company’s entry into the Eyefly
Agreements, the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”)
entered
into: (a)
a consent and amendment to the Company’s Loan and Security Agreement with Wells
Fargo, pursuant to which Wells Fargo agreed to the Company’s investment in
Eyefly (the “Consent
and Amendment”); and (b) a pledge agreement pursuant to which the Company
granted Wells Fargo a security interest in the Company’s equity interest in
Eyefly (the “Pledge
Agreement,” and, together with the Consent and Amendment, the “Wells Fargo
Agreements”).
The
foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Eyefly
Agreements and the Wells Fargo Agreements, which are being filed as exhibits to
this Current Report on Form 8-K.
