AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO SCHEDULE 13D

 

This Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 6”) is being filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons relating to shares of common stock of Blyth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), $0.02 par value per share (the “Common Stock”).  Amendment No. 6 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on July 13, 2011, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on March 30, 2012,  as amended by Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on November 30, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on December 26, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on April 8, 2013, and as amended by Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on December 6, 2013 (“Schedule 13D”).  Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given such terms in the Schedule 13D and unless amended and supplemented hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect.


  Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 is hereby supplemented by the addition of the following:


Since December 6, 2013, Mr. Goergen has given an aggregate of 19,324 shares of Common Stock, as gifts, to RBG, TAG, SG,EG and trusts fbo  their children.  Such shares are reflected in this Amendment No. 6 as beneficially owned by RBG, TAG, SG, EG and trusts fbo their children, as applicable.  In addition, since December 6, 2013, Mr. Goergen has (a) given 111,732 shares of Common Stock, as a gift, to The Goergen Foundation; such shares are reflected in this Amendment No. 6 as



beneficially owned by Mr. Goergen, Mrs. Goergen, RBG and TAG; and (b) given an aggregate of 5 shares of Common Stock, as gifts, to persons other than Reporting Persons.  


Since December 6, 2013, living trust for the benefit of Mr. Goergen has received a distribution of 22,690 shares of Common Stock from The Meliora Charitable Remainder Trust; such shares are reflected in this Amendment No. 6 as beneficially owned by Mr. Goergen.  By reason of such distribution, the beneficial interest of TAG in the shares of Common Stock owned by The Meliora Charitable Remainder Trust has been reduced by 22,690, which reduction is reflected in this Amendment No. 6.


Since December 6, 2013, certain stock awards granted to Mrs. Goergen have vested with the effect that Mrs. Goergen’s  beneficial ownership has increased by 3,000 shares in respect of such stock awards.  Such increase in beneficial ownership by Mrs. Goergen is reflected in this Amendment No. 6.


Since December 6, 2013, certain stock awards granted to RBG have vested with the effect that RBG’s beneficial ownership has increased by 23,045 shares of Common Stock in respect of such stock awards.  Such increase in beneficial ownership by RBG is reflected in this Amendment No. 6.


Since December 6, 2013, The Goergen Foundation has received a gift of 5,618 shares of Common Stock from a person, other than a Reporting Person; such shares are reflected in this Amendment No. 6 as beneficially owned by Mr. Goergen, Mrs. Goergen, RBG and TAG.



Item 4.  Purpose of the Transaction


Item 4 is supplemented by the addition of the following:


Support Agreement


On August 30, 2015, CB Shine Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”) and CB Shine Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with the Issuer. Under the Merger Agreement, among other things, Merger Sub will commence a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the Common Stock, at a price per share of $6.00 (the “Offer Price”), in cash without interest, subject to any deduction or withholding of taxes required by applicable law. Upon successful completion of the Offer, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), and the Issuer will survive the Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. It is anticipated that the Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, with no vote of the Company’s stockholders required to consummate the Merger.

In connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub entered into a tender and support agreement with certain of the Reporting Persons party thereto in their capacity as stockholders of Blyth, Inc. (the “Supporting Shareholders”), dated as of August 30, 2015 (the “Support Agreement”). Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders have agreed to tender 6,332,173 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such stockholders in the Offer and otherwise support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Support Agreement terminates upon certain events, including the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms and the modification, waiver or amendment of the Merger Agreement, without the consent of the Supporting Stockholders, in a manner that reduces the amount or changes the form of consideration



payable to such Supporting Stockholders. In such case, any shares tendered by the Supporting Stockholders would be returned to the Supporting Stockholders.


The foregoing description of the Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Support Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.5, and which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

The primary purpose of the transactions described above is for Parent, through Merger Sub, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Parent required that the Supporting Stockholders agree to enter into the Support Agreement as part of the inducements for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Offer and the Merger. Upon consummation of such transactions, the Issuer will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and the Common Stock will cease to be freely traded or listed and will be de-registered under the Act.



Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer


Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:


The approximate percentages of shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 16,138,413 shares outstanding as of July 31, 2015, as reported by the Issuer in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, plus, with respect to certain Reporting Persons, deferred vested restricted stock units as described in the following sentence.  Amounts shown as beneficially owned by Mrs. Goergen include 10,500 deferred vested restricted stock units held by Mrs. Goergen; amounts shown as beneficially owned by RBG include 11,942 deferred vested restricted stock units held by RBG.

disclosure will be provided to Parent).  Such Stockholder consents to and hereby authorizes Parent and Merger Sub to publish and disclose in all documents and schedules filed with the SEC or other Governmental Authority or applicable securities exchange, and any press release or other disclosure document in connection with the Offer, the Merger and any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, such Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Subject Shares, the existence of this Agreement and the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments and obligations under this Agreement, and such Stockholder acknowledges that Parent and Merger Sub may, in Parent’s sole discretion, file this Agreement or a form hereof with the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or securities exchange.  Such Stockholder agrees to promptly give Parent any information Parent may reasonably request for the preparation of any such disclosure documents, and such Stockholder agrees to promptly notify Parent of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by such Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect. The Stockholder makes no representations, and shall have no liability to Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, with respect to any other disclosure made by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates (other than Stockholder), or with respect to any other information contained in any such disclosure documents.


4.4.            Adjustments.  In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Company affecting the Subject Shares, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities.


4.5.            Waiver of Certain Actions.  Each Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any of their respective successors (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the consummation of the Offer or the Closing) or (b) alleging a breach of any duty of the Board of Directors of the Company in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby.  Notwithstanding Section 5.2, in the event the Offer is consummated, this Section 4.5 shall survive the consummation of the Offer indefinitely.

 

4.6.            No Solicitation.  Subject to Section 5.15, each Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives not to, and each Stockholder shall not publicly propose to, directly or indirectly (other than with respect to Parent and Merger Sub), (a) solicit, initiate or knowingly facilitate, induce or encourage any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Transaction Proposal, or (b) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way that would otherwise be expected to lead to, any Alternative Transaction Proposal.  Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any Stockholder, their respective controlled Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall be deemed to be a breach of this



7



Section 4.6 by such Stockholder.  Each Stockholder shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Alternative Transaction Proposal.  Each Stockholder shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates and their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate any existing solicitation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation with any third-party theretofore conducted by such Stockholder, its controlled Affiliates or its and their respective Representatives.  Except to the extent such notice has previously been provided by the Company pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each Stockholder shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) after receipt of any Alternative Transaction Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or any inquiry relating in any way to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Transaction Proposal, provide Parent with oral and written notice of the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry and an unredacted copy of all written materials provided to it in connection with such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry.  In addition, except to the extent provided by the Company pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each Stockholder shall provide Parent as promptly as practicable (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) with all information as is reasonably necessary to keep Parent fully informed in all material respects of all oral or written communications regarding, and the status and terms of, and changes in any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry, and, shall promptly provide to Parent an unredacted copy of all written materials (including written materials provided by email or otherwise in electronic format) provided, directly or indirectly, by or to such Stockholder, its controlled Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives in connection with such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry.    


4.7.            Stockholder Litigation. Each Stockholder shall provide Parent with prompt notice of any claim or Action (including any class action or derivative litigation) brought, asserted or commenced by, on behalf of or in the name of, against or otherwise involving such Stockholder relating to the Offer, the Merger, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall keep Parent informed on a reasonably prompt basis with respect to the status thereof. Each Stockholder shall give Parent the opportunity to participate (at Parent’s expense) in the defense or settlement of any such litigation, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without the Parent’s prior written consent.


4.8.            Reasonable Best Efforts. Unless the Merger Agreement has been validly terminated in accordance with its terms, each Stockholder shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, any and all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist with Parent, Merger Sub and the Company in doing, any and all things, necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

    ARTICLE V
   MISCELLANEOUS

 

                        5.1.            Notices.  All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally or sent via facsimile or electronic mail (receipt confirmed), (b) on the first (1st) Business Day following the date of dispatch if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (providing proof of delivery) or (c) on the third (3rd) Business Day following the date of mailing if delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, in each case to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice): (i) if to Parent or Merger Sub, to the address or facsimile number set forth in Section 9.2 of the Merger Agreement and (ii) if to a Stockholder, to such Stockholder’s address or facsimile number set forth on a signature page hereto, or to such other address or facsimile number as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to each other party hereto.


5.2.            Termination.  This Agreement shall terminate automatically, without any notice or other action by any Person, upon the first to occur of (a) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) the Effective Time, (c) upon mutual written consent of the parties to terminate this Agreement,  and (d) the date of any modification, waiver or amendment of the Merger Agreement, without each Stockholders’ consent, in a manner that reduces the amount or changes the form of consideration payable thereunder to such Stockholder (the date of termination with respect to any Stockholder being referred to herein as the “Termination Date”).  Upon termination of this Agreement, no party shall have any further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement; provided, however, that (x) nothing set forth in this Section 5.2 shall relieve any party from liability for any breach of this Agreement prior to termination hereof, (y) the provisions of this Article V (excluding Section 5.14) shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and (z) the provisions of Section 4.5 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of the date hereof in the event the Offer has been consummated.


5.3.            Amendment; WaiverThis Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.  Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver with respect to this Agreement shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.  The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.


5.4.            Expenses.  All fees and expenses incurred in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Offer or the Merger is consummated.


5.5.            Entire AgreementThis Agreement, together with Schedule A, and the other documents and certificates delivered pursuant hereto, constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to, the subject matter of this Agreement.

   

5.6.            Assignment.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that



9



either Parent or Merger Sub may assign, in its sole discretion, any of or all its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to Parent (in the case of Merger Sub) or to any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, of any of its obligations under this Agreement.  Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.  Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.


5.7.            Specific Enforcement; Jurisdiction(a) The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court referred to in Section 5.7(b), without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.  Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without such right, none of the parties would have entered into this Agreement.


(b)            Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court shall be unavailable, any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware) for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to such Action may be heard and determined exclusively in such court.  Each of the parties hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court shall be unavailable, any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware) in the event any Action arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) irrevocably consents to the service of process in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, on behalf of itself or its property, in accordance with Section 5.1 (provided that nothing in this Section 5.7(b) shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law) and (iv) agrees that it will not bring any Action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court shall be unavailable, any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware).  The parties hereto agree that a final trial court judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment.

  



10


5.8.            Waiver of Jury Trial.  Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any Action arising out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such party would not, in the event of any Action, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 5.8.


5.9.            Governing LawThis Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.


5.10.            Parties in Interest.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.


5.11.            SeverabilityIf any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner adverse to any party.


5.12.            CounterpartsThis Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic image scan transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.


5.13.            Interpretation.  The rules of construction set forth in Section 1.3 of the Merger Agreement shall apply to this Agreement, mutatis mutandis.


5.14.            Further Assurances.  Each Stockholder will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all further documents and instruments and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations, to perform its obligations under this Agreement.


5.15.            Capacity as Stockholder.  Each Stockholder signs this Agreement solely in such Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company, and not in such Stockholder’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall in any way restrict a director or officer of the Company in the taking of any actions (or failure to act) in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company, or in the exercise of his or her fiduciary duties in his or her capacity as a



11



director or officer of the Company, or prevent or be construed to create any obligation on the part of any director or officer of the Company to refrain from taking any action in his or her capacity as such director or officer, and no action taken solely in any such capacity as an officer or director of the Company shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement.

 

5.16.            Stockholder Obligation Several and Not Joint.  The obligations of each Stockholder hereunder shall be several and not joint, and no Stockholder shall be liable for any breach of the terms of this Agreement by any other Stockholder.


5.17.            Headings.  The Section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
