Each share of Series D Preferred stock is entitled to vote alongside the common stockholders and has 20 votes. Excludes the 16,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock held by Hugh Regan, who is the Manager and control person of 5G Investments, LLC, by virtue of his being the President and Manager of 5G Management, LLC.
Neither the filing of this Statement on Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any Reporting Person that, except as set forth herein, it is the beneficial owner of any Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership thereof is expressly disclaimed.
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This statement relates to the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Shares”), of FTE Networks, Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“FTE” or the “Issuer”). The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 999 Vanderbilt Beach Rd., Suite 601, Naples, Florida 34108.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
(a) | This statement is being filed by: (i) 5G Investments, LLC (“5GI”) and (ii) 5G Management, LLC (“5GM”), the Manager of 5GI (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”). The Reporting Persons are making a joint filing because they may be deemed to be a group pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act. | |
(b) | The address of each of the Reporting Persons is 546 5th Avenue, 23rd Floor, New York, NY 10036. | |
(c) | 5GI, a Delaware limited liability company, was formed to make investments in an entity that was intended to become, and has since the formation of 5GI become, a subsidiary of the Issuer. 5GM, a Delaware limited liability company, was formed to be the Manager of 5GI. | |
(d) | None of the Reporting Persons has, during the last five (5) years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). | |
(e) | None of the Reporting Persons has, during the last five (5) years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations or, prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. |
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On June 19, 2013, 5GI purchased 30,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock of Focus Venture Partners, Inc. (“Focus”) for $50.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $1,500,000.00. Thereafter, on June 19, 2013, the Issuer, Beacon Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (the “Merger Sub”), and Focus entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (as so amended and restated, the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Sub merged with and into Focus with Focus continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, among other matters, all shares of Series B Preferred Stock of Focus owned by 5GI were converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 375,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Issuer, par value $0.01 per share (the “Beacon Series D Shares”). Each Beacon Series D Share (i) entitles its holder to 20 votes per share of common stock of the Issuer (the “Common Stock”) on all matters submitted or required to be submitted to a vote of the common stockholders of the Issuer, and (ii) is automatically convertible into Common Stock on a 1 for 20 basis. During the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, 5GI purchased an additional 195,118 shares and 414,800 shares of Series D preferred stock, respectively, at $4.00 per share, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
5GI acquired the shares of Series D Preferred stock solely as a capital investment and did not acquire the securities for the purpose of obtaining control over the Issuer.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
5GI owns 984,918 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Issuer and beneficially owns 19,698,360 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. This does not include 16,000 shares of Common Stock held by Hugh Regan, the Manager and President of 5GM. 5GM may be considered a member of a group with 5GI because, as the President and Manager of 5GI, it shares voting and dispositive power of the shares of Series D Preferred stock of the Issuer.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
In connection with the Beacon Merger, the Purchase Agreement between 5GI and Focus was assigned by Focus to the Issuer. This agreement permits 5GI to make up to an additional $2,000,000 purchase of the securities of the Issuer into which the Series B Preferred stock of Focus were converted in the Merger, i.e., the Issuer’s shares of Series D Preferred stock.
