ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

 

This Schedule 13D is filed by James J. Dolan (“Dolan”) and Gordon Pointe Management, LLC (“Sponsor” and, together with Dolan, the “Reporting Persons”) relating to the Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Common Stock”), of Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the principal executive office of the Issuer is 2626 Fulton Drive NW, Canton, OH 44718.

 

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

 

(a) The persons filing this Schedule 13D are James J. Dolan and Gordon Pointe Management, LLC, a Florida limited liability company.

 

(b) The business address of the Reporting Persons is 780 Fifth Avenue, South Naples, FL 34102.

 

(c) Prior to the Business Combination (defined below), HOF Village, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“HOF Village”), was a resort and entertainment company located in Canton, Ohio, leveraging the power and popularity of professional football in partnership with the National Football Museum, Inc., an Ohio nonprofit corporation doing business as the Pro Football Hall of Fame (“PFHOF”). HOF Village was formed in 2015 by initial equity members IRG Canton Village Member, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“IRG Member”), and Hall of Fame Village, Inc., an Ohio corporation (which transferred its membership interest to its parent, PFHOF, in 2019). M. Klein & Associates, Inc. (“MKA”), a New York corporation wholly-owned by Michael Klein (“Klein”), became a member of HOF Village in 2018. As a result of the Business Combination, HOF Village became a stockholder of the Issuer and a vehicle for holding certain of the indirect interests in the Issuer by IRG Member, PFHOF, MKA, and others.

 

As described further in Item 6 below, Dolan is the managing member of Sponsor. Sponsor is a party with others to certain agreements relating to the Business Combination. As a result of these agreements, HOF Village, IRG Canton Village Manager, LLC (as manager of HOF Village), IRG Member, and PFHOF (collectively, the “Separately Filing Persons”) may be deemed to be members of a “group” with the Reporting Persons within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto sets forth certain information regarding the Separately Filing Persons as required by Item 2 of Schedule 13D to the extent such information is available to the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons understand that each of the Separately Filing Persons intends to file a Schedule 13D report pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(2) under the Exchange Act containing their required information. The Reporting Persons assume no responsibility for the information contained in such reports filed by the Separately Filing Persons. The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares held separately by the Separately Filing Persons. The information contained in this Schedule 13D concerning the Separately Filing Persons is based solely on documents filed with the SEC by the Separately Filing Persons and other information provided by the Issuer.

 

CUSIP No. 40619L102 Page 5 of 10 Pages

 

(d) During the last five years, the Reporting Persons have not been convicted in any criminal proceedings.

 

(e) During the last five years, the Reporting Persons have not been a party to a civil proceeding of any judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding of any violation with respect to such laws.

 

(f) Dolan is a resident of Florida. Sponsor is a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Florida. As noted above, Dolan is the managing member of Sponsor. Sponsor has no other officers or directors.

 

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

 

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 1,635,772 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, certain warrants exercisable for 3,457,393 shares of Common Stock and 43,478 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer issuable upon the conversion of a certain convertible note issued by the Issuer to the Reporting Person upon conversion of certain loans by the Reporting Person to GPAQ (as defined below). The Reporting Persons did not expend any funds to acquire Common Stock or warrants of the Issuer. Rather, as a result of the consummation of the Business Combination (defined below) on July 1, 2020, the Reporting Persons acquired an indirect beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Issuer and certain warrants exercisable that were issued to Sponsor in exchange for Sponsor’s interest in Gordon Pointe Acquisition Corp. (“GPAQ”), a Delaware corporation that was, immediately prior to the Business Combination, approximately 50.8% owned by Sponsor. Sponsor also owned certain warrants to purchase additional GPAQ shares which, upon consummation of the Business Combination, became warrants to purchase the Issuer’s Common Stock. In conjunction with the Business Combination, certain loans by the Reporting Person to GPAQ were converted into a convertible note issued by the Issuer to the Reporting Person, which convertible notes may be converted into 43,478 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer pursuant to the terms of such convertible note.

 

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

 

In July 2019, HOF Village was introduced to GPAQ which, at that time, was a special purpose acquisition company publicly-traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “GPAQ.” HOF Village was seeking additional capital to carry out its business plan to become a premier resort and entertainment venue. Following extensive discussions, on September 16, 2019, Issuer, HOF Village, PFHOF, GPAQ, and others entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) which was subject to a number of closing conditions including the approval of GPAQ’s stockholders. A meeting of GPAQ’s stockholders was held on June 30, 2020, at which time the stockholders approved the Merger Agreement. All other closing conditions have been satisfied or were waived.

 

CUSIP No. 40619L102 Page 6 of 10 Pages

 

On July 1, 2020, the parties described above consummated the mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement (“Consummation”). As a result, among other things, (a) GPAQ Acquiror Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer, was merged with and into GPAQ, with GPAQ continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer, (b) Sponsor and the other stockholders of GPAQ became stockholders of the Issuer, (c) all of the assets and liabilities of HOF Village were transferred to HOF Village Newco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Newco”), (d) GPAQ Company Merger Sub, LLC, another wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer, was merged with and into Newco with Newco continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer, and (e) HOF Village and PFHOF became stockholders of the Issuer. We refer to such transactions as the “Business Combination.” For further information regarding the foregoing transactions, please Form 8-K filed by the Issuer with the SEC on July 8, 2020 and the reports required by Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act filed by the Separately Filing Persons in connection with the Business Combination.

 

Simultaneously with the consummation of the initial public offering for GPAQ in 2018, Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,900,000 warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, each exercisable to purchase one share of GPAQ’s Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per Class A share. Subsequently but prior to the Business Combination, Sponsor transferred 35,000 GPAQ warrants to one of its employees. In connection with the consummation of the business combination on July 1, 2020, each of these GPAQ warrants was cancelled and exchanged for a warrant to purchase 1.421333 shares of the Issuer’s common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. In addition, in connection with the Business Combination, Sponsor transferred to HOF Village 50% of these Issuer warrants, which are exercisable to purchase 3,457,393 shares of the Issuer’s common stock.

 

As noted in Item 6, pursuant to the Director Nominating Agreement (defined below), Sponsor became entitled to designate one individual to serve as a director of the Issuer. In connection with the Business Combination, Sponsor appointed Dolan as its designee to the board of directors of the Issuer.

 

Presently, the Reporting Persons have no intention or plan to undertake any of the actions enumerated in Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons will routinely monitor its investment in the Issuer with regard to a wide variety of factors that affect investment considerations, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices for the Issuer’s Common Stock and other securities, the Issuer’s operations, assets, prospects, and business development, the Issuer’s management, Issuer-related competitive and strategic matters, general economic, financial market, and industry conditions, as well as other investment considerations. These considerations and other factors may result in the Reporting Persons’ consideration of alternatives with respect to its investment in the Issuer. Based on its analysis of investment considerations, the Reporting Persons may (i) sell, trade, or otherwise dispose of all or some holdings in the Issuer in the public markets, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, (ii) consider and/or implement various alternatives to maximize the value of its investment in the Issuer, or (iii) take any other lawful actions it deems to be in its best interests, subject – in each case – to the restrictions imposed by the Merger Agreement and/or certain other agreements described herein and the securities laws. There is no assurance that the Reporting Persons will develop any plans or proposals with respect to any of the alternatives mentioned above.

CUSIP No. 40619L102 Page 8 of 10 Pages

 

Director Nominating Agreement. The Issuer, HOF Village, PFHOF, and Sponsor have entered into a Director Nominating Agreement (the “Director Nominating Agreement”), which provides that the Issuer shall take all necessary action to set the size of its board of directors (the “Board”) at 11 members, a majority of whom shall be independent directors in accordance with Nasdaq requirements. The Board will be made up of three classes: Class A Directors who shall serve for an initial one-year term, Class B Directors who shall serve for an initial two-year term, and Class C Directors who shall serve for an initial three-year term. The following individuals will be directors as of the Effective Time: (i) Michael Klein, Edward J.

Hunt, respectively.

 

In addition, the Director Nominating Agreement provides that each of HOF Village, PFHOF, and Sponsor shall take all necessary and desirable actions within such party’s control (including voting or causing to be voted, whether at a meeting of stockholders or by written consent or otherwise, all of the Issuer’s voting securities now or hereafter directly or indirectly owned by such party) (a) to cause the applicable nominees of HOF Village, PFHOF, and Sponsor to be appointed (and where applicable, elected) as directors, and (b) against their removal from office unless such removal is directed or approved by the party responsible for such director’s nomination.
