SCHEDULE 13D/A8
This constitutes Amendment No. 8 (the “Amendment No. 8”) to the statement on Schedule 13D filed on behalf of Karen Singer (“Ms. Singer”), dated and filed January 22, 2019 (as amended, the “Statement”), relating to the common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of SeaChange International, Inc. (the “Issuer”). Unless specifically amended or modified hereby, the disclosure set forth in the Statement shall remain unchanged.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction
Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended to add the following:
(a) The purpose of this filing is to report that, since the filing of the Statement, a material change occurred in regards to a material agreement as set forth below:
Except as described this Item 4 and herein, Ms. Singer does not currently have any specific plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions or events specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Ms. Singer reserves the right to change plans and take any and all actions that Ms. Singer may deem appropriate to maximize the value of her investments, including, among other things, purchasing or otherwise acquiring additional securities of the Issuer, selling or otherwise disposing of any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by her, in each case in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, or formulating other plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or its securities to the extent deemed advisable by Ms. Singer in light of her general investment policies, market conditions, subsequent developments affecting the Issuer and the general business and future prospects of the Issuer. Ms. Singer may take any other action with respect to the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s debt or equity securities in any manner permitted by applicable law.
While the Reporting Persons was planning to vote against Bob Pons at the upcoming annual meeting, we are relived to see that the Company’s former Chairman Bob Pons has resigned. We believe that the massive destruction of shareholder value that happened under his Chairmanship can hopefully be turned around. With the Company finally moving towards installing industry experts atop their Board at bot the Chairman and Lead Independent Director roles, respectively, we believe the Company should be well positioned to navigate moving forward.
