This Amendment No. 6 to the Statement on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 6”) is being filed with respect to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of American Electric Technologies, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), to amend and supplement the Statement on Schedule 13D filed by JCH Crenshaw Holdings, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“JCH”), and  J. Casey Crenshaw, a citizen of the State of Texas of the United States of America (“Mr. Crenshaw” and, together with JCH, the “Reporting Persons”) on May 14, 2012 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as previously amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D filed on June 12, 2017 (“Amendment No. 1”), Amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule 13D filed on August 4, 2017 (“Amendment No. 2”), Amendment No. 3 to the Original Schedule 13D filed on July 27, 2018 (“Amendment No. 3”), Amendment No. 4 to the original Schedule 13D filed on August 7, 2018 (“Amendment No. 4”) and Amendment No. 5 to the original Schedule 13D filed on August 21, 2018 (“Amendment No. 5” and collectively with the Original Schedule 13D, Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, and Amendment No. 4, the “Schedule 13D”), as specifically set forth herein.  All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.  Except as set forth below, all previous Items are unchanged.

 

Item 4.         Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment No. 6 to report, as further described below, the dismissal, without prejudice, of the lawsuits between JCH and the Company discussed in Amendment No. 5.

 

On August 6, 2018, the Company announced that it had entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell the U.S. assets of its wholly-owned subsidiary M&I Electronic Industries, Inc. (“M&I”) to a third party. The Company’s sole assets are its interests in its direct and indirect subsidiaries. JCH reported that it had commenced a lawsuit against the Company to enforce its rights as the sole preferred shareholder of the Company for distribution upon the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s property or business (a “Liquidation Event”). As the sole holder of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, upon a Liquidation Event, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Common Stock, JCH is entitled to receive its liquidation preference, or $5.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, plus all unpaid dividends (the “Liquidation Preference”).

 

On August 17, 2018, JCH made written demand to the Company for distribution of its Liquidation Preference. The Company, however, rejected JCH’s assertion that the sale of the domestic-based operations of M&I constituted a Liquidation Event. Subsequently, JCH attempted to resolve the dispute without commencing legal proceedings. On August 20, 2018, the Company initiated a lawsuit in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, seeking a declaration that the Liquidation Preference obligation has not been triggered. On August 21, 2018, without knowledge of the Company’s lawsuit, JCH filed a lawsuit against the Company in the District Court of Harris County, Texas to enforce its Liquidation Preference rights. As of October 29, 2018, both lawsuits have been voluntarily dismissed, without prejudice.

 

Item 5.         Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

The information in Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

(a)-(b) The aggregate number and percentage of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons (on the basis of a total of 8,916,139 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2018, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, filed with the Commission on August 14, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-Q”)), is as follows:

 

The following table describes the number of shares of Common Stock, including the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the exercise of the Warrants and the receipt of the Series A Preferred Stock Dividend, and the percent of outstanding Common Stock, beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. All percentages are calculated on the basis of a total of 11,553,421 shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding, which includes (i) 8,916,139 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2018, as reported in the 2018 Form 10-Q, (ii) 2,537,389 shares of Common Stock issuable upon (x) conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, (y) exercise of the Series A Warrants and (z) exercise of the Series B Warrants and (iii) 99,893 shares of Common Stock issuable as the Series A Preferred Stock Dividend.

Mr. Crenshaw may be deemed to share the power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares of Common Stock owned by JCH by virtue of being the sole managing member of JCH pursuant to JCH’s limited liability company agreement. Mr. Crenshaw disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities held by JCH except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and this Amendment No. 6 shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Crenshaw is the beneficial owner of the reported securities held by JCH for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
