Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2016 (together, the “Schedule 13D”), by Vajra Fund III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Vajra Asset Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Michael Brodsky (together, collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons”).  The Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.001 of Angie’s List, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).

 

Item 4.                                                         Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:

 

On July 21, 2016, Vajra Fund III, LLC sent a letter (the “Letter”) to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Board”), asking the Board to consider, among other things, the resignation of each of Mr. John H. Chuang, Chairman of the Board, and Mr. Steven M. Kapner, from the Board.  As discussed in the Letter, Mr. Chuang and Mr. Kapner are the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, respectively, of TRI Ventures, Inc., the parent company of TRI Investments, LLC (“TRI”), which holds shares in the Issuer.  Through TRI, Messrs. Chuang and Kapner have pledged nearly all of their shares held in the Issuer, as collateral to secure a debt.  Alternatively, Vajra Fund III, LLC asks that Messrs. Chuang and Kapner be required to remove as promptly as possible the pledge of their shares in the Issuer as collateral for any outstanding loans or other indebtedness.

 

In the Letter, Vajra Fund III, LLC also proposes that the size of the Board be reduced from 12 to 10 members and the staggered board election policy be eliminated.

 

A copy of the Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Other than as discussed above, none of the Reporting Persons currently has any other plans or proposals that would result in or relate to any of the transactions or changes listed in Items 4(a) through 4(j) of Schedule 13D.  However, as part of their ongoing evaluation of investment and investment alternatives, the Reporting Persons may consider such matters and, subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters or make formal proposals to management or the board of directors of the Issuer, other stockholders of the Issuer or other third parties regarding such matters.  The Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire additional securities of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions (which may be with the Issuer or with third parties) or otherwise, to dispose of all or a portion of their holdings of securities of the Issuer, to engage in any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the securities or to change their intention with respect to any or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.

 

Item 7.                                                         Materials to be Filed as Exhibits.

 

Exhibit 1                                               Joint Filing Agreement dated as of February 22, 2016 (previously filed as an exhibit to the Schedule 13D filed on February 22, 2016).

 

Exhibit 2                                               Letter from Vajra Fund III, LLC to the Board of Directors of Angie’s List, Inc. dated July 21, 2016.
