CUSIP NO. 379887201

The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 1”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

The Reporting Persons purchased the shares of Common Stock based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the shares of Common Stock, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.
 
No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein.  The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis.  Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the shares of Common Stock, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate.

After negotiations with the Issuer regarding matters relating to the composition of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) and the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders of the Issuer (the “2014 Annual Meeting”), the Reporting Persons entered into a letter agreement with the Issuer on April 4, 2014 (the “Letter Agreement”).  Pursuant to the terms of the Letter Agreement, among other things, the Board has appointed James H. Cohen and Patrick Lombardi (together, the “New Directors”) as members of the Board to fill the vacancies resulting from the resignations of Jon DeLuca and Grant Dawson as directors of the Issuer, the Issuer will nominate, recommend and support the New Directors as two of five total nominees (the “Issuer Slate”) to stand for election as directors of the Issuer at the 2014 Annual Meeting and the Issuer will reimburse certain fees and expenses incurred by the Reporting Persons in connection with matters related to the 2014 Annual Meeting and the negotiation and execution of the Letter Agreement.  The Letter Agreement also provides that the Reporting Persons will vote for the election of the Issuer Slate at the 2014 Annual Meeting and abide by certain standstill obligations through the conclusion of the 2014 Annual Meeting.

The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Letter Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Letter Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a) - (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 35,167,040 shares of Common Stock outstanding, as of March 3, 2014, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 6, 2014.

(a)      As of the date hereof, GP Investment directly owned 15,276,138 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 43.4% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. By virtue of the relationships described in further detail in Item 2, each of MSCC, Robert M. Shuford, Brian Pessin and Sandra and Norman Pessin JTWROS may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock owned directly by GP Investment.  Each of MSCC, Robert M. Shuford, Brian Pessin and Sandra and Norman Pessin JTWROS disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.

As of the date hereof, MSCC directly owned 7,345 shares of Common Stock, representing less than 1% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.  MSCC may be deemed to beneficially own an additional 47,741 and 18,362 shares of Common Stock, representing less than 1% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding, held by Main Street Mezzanine Fund LP and Main Street Capital II, LP, respectively.  Main Street Mezzanine Fund LP and Main Street Capital II, LP are subsidiaries of MSCC.  MSCC disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.

CUSIP NO. 379887201

(b)      GP Investment may be deemed to share with MSCC, Robert M. Shuford, Brian Pessin and Sandra and Norman Pessin JTWROS the power to vote and dispose of the Common Stock directly owned by GP Investment.

MSCC may be deemed to share with Main Street Mezzanine Fund LP and Main Street Capital II, LP, subsidiaries of MSCC, the power to vote and dispose of the Common Stock directly owned by Main Street Mezzanine Fund LP and Main Street Capital II, LP.  MSCC has sole power to vote and dispose of the shares of Common Stock it owns directly.

(c)      None of the Reporting Persons have entered into any transactions in the shares of Common Stock during the past sixty days.

Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:

On April 4, 2014, the Reporting Persons and the Issuer entered into the Letter Agreement as defined and described in Item 4 above.  The Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
This letter constitutes the agreement (the “Agreement”) among GP Investment Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GP Investment”), and each of Main Street Capital Corporation (“MSCC”), Brian Pessin, Sandra Pessin and Norman Pessin (collectively with GP Investment, the “Investor Group”), and Glowpoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
 
WHEREAS, Jon DeLuca and Grant Dawson (the “Resigning Directors”) have decided to resign from the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”);
 
WHEREAS, James H. Cohen and Patrick Lombardi (together, the “New Directors,” and each individually, a “New Director”) have agreed to fill two (2) vacancies on the Board that will result from the resignation of the Resigning Directors; and
 
WHEREAS, the Company and the Investor Group have agreed that it is in their mutual interests to enter into this Agreement, among other things, to set forth certain agreements concerning the composition of the Board, as hereinafter described.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
1.           Subject to the terms hereof and effective contemporaneously herewith, the Company has taken all requisite action to:
 
(a)           accept the resignations of the Resigning Directors as directors of the Company effective concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, as evidenced by the executed resignation letters attached hereto as Exhibit A; and
 
(b)           appoint each of the New Directors to the Board effective concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, thereby filling the two (2) vacancies thus created.
 
2.           The Company agrees to nominate the New Directors as two (2) of five (5) total nominees (the “Company Slate”) to stand for election as directors of the Company at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “2014 Annual Meeting”), for terms that expire at the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “2015 Annual Meeting”) or until their successors are duly elected and qualified.
 
 
 
 
 
April 4, 2014
Page 2
 
3.           The Company agrees to publicly recommend and support the election to the Board of each of the New Directors at the 2014 Annual Meeting, including, without limitation, soliciting proxies in favor of their election, in the same manner as it does for all the other incumbent members of the Company Slate and accordingly, such New Directors shall be deemed to be “Continuing Directors” as defined under the Company’s equity incentive plans and employment agreements with the Company’s named executive officers.
 
4.           Each member of the Investor Group shall (a) in the case of all shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), owned of record by it, him or her as of the record date for the 2014 Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”), and (b) in the case of all shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by any member of the Investor Group as of the Record Date (whether held in street name or by some other arrangement), instruct the record holder to, in each case at the 2014 Annual Meeting, vote for the election of the Company Slate at the 2014 Annual Meeting.
 
5.           At all times while serving as a director of the Company, each of the New Directors will receive the same benefits of directors’ and officers’ insurance and any indemnity and exculpation arrangements available generally to the other independent Board members and the same compensation and other benefits for his service as a director as the compensation and other benefits received by the other independent Board members.
 
6.           The Company agrees that during the period commencing on the date hereof until the 2015 Annual Meeting, the size of the Board shall be fixed at five (5) members.
 
7.           The Company agrees to hold the 2014 Annual Meeting no later than June 30, 2014.
 
8.            If James H. Cohen (or any director appointed to replace Mr. Cohen or any subsequent replacements in accordance with this Section 8) is unable or ceases to serve on the Board for any reason then the Investor Group shall have the right to recommend a substitute person(s) who (a) is knowledgeable about the industry in which the Company operates and (b) qualifies as an “independent director” in accordance with Section 803A of the NYSE MKT Company Guide and satisfies the independence standards specified in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to fill the resulting vacancy, subject to the approval of the Board, in its good faith business judgment, after exercising its fiduciary duties, and the Board shall appoint such replacement director to the Board promptly after the giving of such approval.  If Patrick Lombardi (or any director appointed to replace Mr. Lombardi or any subsequent replacements in accordance with this Section 8) is unable or ceases to serve on the Board for any reason then the Board shall, in its good faith business judgment, after exercising its fiduciary duties, promptly identify and appoint to the Board a substitute person who meets the conditions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 8 to fill the resulting vacancy.  Any replacement director(s) appointed in accordance with this Section 8 shall hereinafter be deemed a “New Director” under this Agreement.

9.           Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, including the Investor Group’s agreement to support the Company Slate, for the Standstill Period, neither the Investor Group nor any of its Affiliates will, and it will cause each of its Affiliates not to:
 
(a)           make, or in any way participate, directly or indirectly, in any “solicitation” (as such term is used in the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)) of proxies or consents, conduct or suggest any binding or nonbinding referendum or resolution or seek to advise, encourage or influence any individual, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, group, association or entity (collectively, a “Person”) with respect to the voting of any of the Common Stock;
 
(b)           initiate, propose or otherwise “solicit” (as such term is used in the proxy rules of the SEC) stockholders of the Company for the approval of stockholder proposals, as amended, or otherwise, or cause or encourage any person to initiate any such stockholder proposal;
 
(c)           propose or nominate, or cause or encourage any Person to propose or nominate, any candidates to stand for election to the Board, or seek the removal of any member of the Board;
 
(d)           take any public action to act alone or in concert with others to control or seek to control, or to influence or seek to influence, the management, the Board or the policies of the Company;
 
(e)           form, join or otherwise participate in a “partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act (other than the group already formed among the Investor Group) with respect to the Common Stock or deposit any shares of Common Stock in a voting trust or similar arrangement or subject any shares of Common Stock to any voting agreement or pooling arrangement, or grant any proxy with respect to any shares of Common Stock (other than to a designated representative of the Company pursuant to a proxy statement of the Company); provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit the ability of an Affiliate of any member of the Investor Group to join its existing group following the execution of this Agreement, so long as any such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
 
(f)           acquire, offer or propose to acquire, or agree to acquire (except by the way of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits or other distributions or offerings made available to holders of shares of Common Stock generally), whether by purchase, tender or exchange offer, through the acquisition of control of another Person, by joining a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) or otherwise, any shares of Common Stock if, as a result of such acquisition, the members of the Investor Group would beneficially own in the aggregate in excess of 45% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock;

(g)           without the prior approval of the Board contained in a written resolution of the Board, (x) either directly or indirectly for the Investor Group, or in conjunction with any other Person in which it is or proposes to be either a principal, partner or financing source or is acting or proposes to act as broker or agent for compensation, effect or seek, offer or propose (whether publicly or otherwise) to effect, or cause or participate in, or (y) except as set forth in the next sentence, in any way knowingly support, assist or facilitate any other Person to effect or seek, offer or propose to effect, or cause or participate in, any (i) tender offer or exchange offer, merger, acquisition or other business combination involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided, however, that this clause shall not preclude the tender by any member of the Investor Group or any of its Affiliates of any securities of the Company into any tender or exchange offer approved by the Board; (ii) form of business combination or acquisition or other transaction relating to a material amount of assets or securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) form of restructuring, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9(g) shall prohibit the Investor Group from presenting any potential transaction to the Board on a private basis in circumstances that would not reasonably be expected to require public disclosure by the Company or the Investor Group at or around the time the proposal is made;
 
(h)           seek to call, or to request the call of, or call a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company, or make a request for a list of the Company’s stockholders or other Company records; or
 
(i)           otherwise take, or solicit, cause or encourage others to take, any action inconsistent with any of the foregoing.
 
For the avoidance of doubt, any actions of the New Directors taken in their capacity as members of the Board (including, without limitation, voting on any matter submitted for consideration by the Board, participating in deliberations or discussions of the Board and making suggestions or raising issues to the Board) shall not be deemed to violate the foregoing clauses (a) through (i).  For purposes of this Agreement, “Standstill Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date hereof until the conclusion of the 2014 Annual Meeting.
 
For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act.
 
10.           Nothing in this Agreement to the contrary shall prohibit MSCC, during the Standstill Period or otherwise, from exercising its rights and performing its obligations under that certain Loan Agreement dated as of October 17, 2013 by and among the Company, its subsidiaries and MSCC (as may be amended from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) in its capacity as a lender, the administrative agent or the collateral agent under the Loan Agreement.
