Entry into Equity Financing Binding Term Sheets. On Friday, April 12, 2013 Mandalay Digital Group, Inc. (the "Company") entered into two Equity Financing Binding Term Sheets, each dated as of April 11, 2013 (the "Equity Agreements"), with Trinad Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (“Trinad”) and the Guber Family Trust (the “Guber Trust”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue a total of 1,428,572 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase a total of 357,142 shares of its common stock (subject to adjustment), for a total purchase price of $1,000,000 in cash for both Equity Agreements. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.70 per share (subject to adjustment), a five year term, and may be exercised only following the first anniversary of the date of issuance. In addition, the Equity Agreements provide that (a) the Company will use its best efforts to file a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issued and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants within 120 calendar days after the date of the Equity Agreement and use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective as soon as possible thereafter; and (b) each investor will have a right to participate in future financings by the Company (subject to standard exceptions) for a period of two years on a pro rata basis in accordance with his ownership interests in the Company (on a fully diluted basis assuming exercise of the applicable warrant).
Trinad Capital Master Fund is one of our principal stockholders and an affiliate of our director, Robert Ellin. The Guber Trust is one of our principal stockholders, and Peter Guber, the Company’s Chairman, serves as Trustee of the Guber Trust.
Following the Reverse Stock Split disclosed in Section 5.03 of this Current Report, the shares of common stock were reduced to a total of 285,714 shares and the warrants were reduced to a total of 71,428 shares, and the exercise price of the warrants increased to $3.50 per share.
The securities were issued pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
Expiration of Executive Chairman Agreement. On December 28, 2012, the Company’s Executive Chairman Agreement with Robert Ellin expired naturally. The Company continued to retain Mr. Ellin on the same cash terms, on an at-will basis, since the expiration. Although Mr. Ellin remains on the Board of Directors and is entitled to the same compensation that may be offered to other non-management directors, as of April 15, 2013, Mr. Ellin no longer serves as Executive Chairman and such at-will cash retention ended.
Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year |
Amendment of Articles of Incorporation to Effect Reverse Stock Split. On March 28, 2013 and April 9, 2013, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment and Certificate of Correction of Certificate of Amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, to effect a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of our common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). The Certificate of Amendment, as corrected, became effective as of April 12, 2013.
As previously described in detail in our definitive information statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2012, our stockholders approved by written consent on May 23, 2012 (the “Written Consent”) an amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of our common stock at a ratio in the range of not less than 1-for-2 and not more than 1-for-10. The Board of Directors (the "Board") thereafter selected the 1-for-5 reverse stock split ratio and authorized the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every five (5) shares of our pre-Reverse Stock Split common stock were combined and reclassified into one (1) share of our common stock. Our post-Reverse Stock Split common stock began trading on April 15, 2013 with a new CUSIP number of 562562-207. The Reverse Stock Split did not change the authorized number of shares or the par value of our common stock.
No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share in connection with the Reverse Stock Split will receive a cash payment in lieu thereof.
Our transfer agent, American Stock and Transfer, is acting as exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split and will send instructions to stockholders of record regarding the exchange of certificates for common stock.
A copy of the Certificate of Amendment and Certificate of Correction of Certificate of Amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation are being filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The warrants have an exercise price of $0.70 per share (subject to adjustment), a five year term, and may be exercised only following the first anniversary of the date of issuance. In addition, the Equity Agreement provides that (a) the Company will use its best efforts to file a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issued and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants within 120 calendar days after the date of the Equity Agreement and use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective as soon as possible thereafter; and (b) the investor will have a right to participate in future financings by the Company (subject to standard exceptions) for a period of two years on a pro rata basis in accordance with his ownership interests in the Company (on a fully diluted basis assuming exercise of the applicable warrant).
Following the Reverse Stock Split disclosed in Section 5.03 of this Current Report, the shares of common stock were reduced to 142,857 shares and the warrants were reduced to 35,714 shares, and the exercise price of the warrants increased to $3.50 per share.
