Reference is made to the Statement on Schedule 13D, as previously amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), filed on behalf of Prentice Capital Management, LP (“Prentice Capital Management”) and Michael Zimmerman (“Mr. Zimmerman” and, together with Prentice Capital Management, the “Reporting Persons”), relating to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Gaiam, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”). Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to the “Shares” are to the Class A Common Stock of the Company.
The Reporting Persons are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Prentice Capital Management disclaims beneficial ownership of all of the Shares reported in this Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D. Mr. Zimmerman disclaims beneficial ownership of all of the Shares reported in this Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D.
All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the definitions assigned to them in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D as follows.
Item 2. Identity and Background
Paragraphs (b) and (c) of Item 2 of the Schedule 13D are amended and restated to read as follows:
(b) The address of the principal business office of Prentice Capital Management and Mr. Zimmerman is 33 Benedict Place, 2nd Floor, Greenwich, CT 06830.
(c) The principal business of Prentice Capital Management is to serve as investment manager to investment funds, including Prentice Consumer Partners, LP which is the record owner of the Shares reported in this Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D, except for the 11,705 Shares held by The Michael and Holly Zimmerman Foundation. The principal business of Mr. Zimmerman is to act as (i) the Managing Member of Prentice Management GP, LLC, the general partner of Prentice Capital Management and (ii) the managing member or manager of certain entities that, directly or indirectly, serve as the general partner or investment manager of certain investment funds. As such, Mr. Zimmerman may be deemed to control Prentice Capital Management and the investment funds for which Prentice Capital Management serves as investment manager (including Prentice Consumer Partners) and therefore may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of the Shares reported in this Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
The Shares reported in the Schedule 13D were acquired for investment in the ordinary course of business. The Reporting Persons may further purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose of, engage in short selling of or any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Shares or otherwise deal in the Shares at times, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in the market price of such Shares, changes in the Company's operations, business strategy or prospects, or from a sale or merger of the Company and based on other factors including, without limitation, the price levels of the Shares, availability of funds, subsequent developments affecting the Company, the Company's business, other investment and business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market, general economic and industry conditions and other factors that the Reporting Persons may deem relevant from time to time. Any
acquisition or disposition of Shares, or short sales or other hedging transaction with respect to the Shares, by the Reporting Persons may be effected through open market or privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The Reporting Persons may take one or more actions set forth under subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule13D. The Reporting Persons may discuss such matters, or any other matters, with management or directors of the Company, other shareholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, and investment and financing professionals. Such factors and discussions may materially affect, and result in, the Reporting Persons' modifying their ownership of the Shares, exchanging information with the Company pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements or otherwise. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to at any time reconsider and change their plans or proposals relating to the foregoing.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Paragraph (a) of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) Prentice Capital Management may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 2,566,323 Shares, representing approximately 14.8% of the Company’s outstanding Class A Common Stock (based upon the 17,302,869 Shares stated to be outstanding by the Company as of May 7, 2012, in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 10, 2012). Mr. Zimmerman may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 2,578,028 Shares representing approximately 14.9% of the Company’s outstanding Class A Common Stock.
