This Amendment No. 3 amends Schedule 13D filed on March 20, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on December 22, 2015, and Amendment No. 2 filed on February 12, 2016, by Jackson Investment Group, LLC (“JIG LLC”), and Richard L. Jackson regarding the common stock, $.001 par value per share, of Blue Earth, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Terms used in this amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is amended by deleting the last paragraph thereof in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following:
While most of these various purchase rights are immediately exercisable, the Reporting Persons have no plans to exercise these rights or other plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the events described in (a) through (j) of Item 4, except as described herein and as follows. On March 1, 2016, JIG LLC delivered a notice of default to the Issuer and certain of its guarantor subsidiaries under its various secured loans to the Issuer. The Reporting Persons have been engaged in discussions with the Issuer regarding debt restructuring under the Federal bankruptcy laws.
In conjunction with such discussions, the Reporting Persons are continually reviewing their interest in the Issuer, including JIG LLC’s interest as the primary secured lender to the Issuer. The factors that the Reporting Persons may consider in evaluating their interest in the Issuer include the following: (i) the Issuer’s businesses, assets and prospects, including but not limited to the Issuer’s ability to repay or refinance its senior credit agreements with JIG LLC in accordance with their terms ; (ii) the contractual provisions, limitations and other terms of JIG LLC’s loan and security agreements with the Issuer; (iii) potential claims that JIG, LLC may have against the Issuer in connection with its investments in the Issuer; (iv) general economic conditions and stock market conditions; and (v) other plans and requirements of the Reporting Persons.
Depending on their evaluation of these and other factors, the Reporting Persons may from time to time seek to increase or decrease their investment in the Issuer; engage in discussions with third parties regarding the Issuer and its businesses, prospects, operations, strategy, personnel, directors, ownership and capitalization, including discussions regarding a potential debt restructuring under the Federal bankruptcy laws, and such third parties’ interests therein and any plans and proposals they may have with respect thereto; engage in discussions with management of the Issuer concerning its businesses, prospects, operations, strategy, personnel, directors, ownership and capitalization, including discussions regarding a potential debt restructuring under the Federal bankruptcy laws; and either individually or together with others make proposals with respect to the Issuer that may involve one or more of the types of transactions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 is amended as follows:
The following disclosure assumes 101,134,948 shares of Common Stock are outstanding based on the Issuer’s report of shares outstanding as of January 4, 2016, as reported in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 424(b)(5) on January 15, 2016.
(a) Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 22,362,474 shares of Common Stock, which constitutes approximately 20.42% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (assuming the exercise of all warrants and other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons as contemplated in Rule 13d-3). Of the shares deemed to be beneficially owned 8,366,856 are not outstanding but are subject to a right to be acquired by JIG LLC. Richard L. Jackson disclaims beneficial ownership of all of the shares reported to be beneficially owned by him except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(b) The Reporting Persons share the power to vote and direct the disposition of all 22,362,474 shares of Common Stock reported as being beneficially owned.
| CUSIP No. 095428108 | 13D/A | Page 5 of 5 Pages |
(c) On March 10, 2016, an option to acquire 9,803,921 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by JIG LLC expired under its terms.
