Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously reported, on September 9, 2022, Tuesday Morning Corporation (the "Company"), Tuesday Morning, Inc. ("TMI"), certain members of management of the Company (the "Management Purchasers"), TASCR Ventures, LLC (the "SPV" and, together with the Management Purchasers, the "Purchasers"), a special purpose entity formed by Retail Ecommerce Ventures LLC ("REV") and Ayon Capital, L.L.C., and TASCR Ventures CA, LLC, as collateral agent (the "Collateral Agent"), entered into a Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 9, 2022 (the "Original Note Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which TMI would issue $35 million in aggregate principal amount of debt securities to be guaranteed by the Company and certain other subsidiaries of the Company and exchangeable for shares of the Company's common stock. On September 20, 2022, the Company, TMI, the Purchasers and the Collateral Agent entered into an Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement (the "Note Purchase Agreement") to amend the Original Note Purchase Agreement by providing that the debt securities would be issued directly by the Company and convertible into shares of the Company's stock, and guaranteed by TMI and certain other subsidiaries of the Company. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement occurred on September 20, 2022.

Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the SPV purchased: (i) $7.5 million in aggregate principal amount of a junior secured convertible note issued by the Company (the "FILO C Convertible Note"); and (ii) $24.5 million in aggregate principal amount of junior secured convertible notes issued by the Company (the "SPV Junior Convertible Notes"). In addition, the Management Purchasers purchased $3.0 million of junior secured convertible notes issued by the Company (together with the SPV Junior Convertible Notes, the "Junior Convertible Notes"). The FILO C Convertible Note and the Junior Convertible Notes are referred to herein as the "Convertible Debt" and the issuance of the Convertible Debt is referred to herein as the "Private Placement." The Convertible Debt is guaranteed by the Company's subsidiaries.

The Convertible Debt is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.077 per share. Accordingly, 415,584,415 shares of the Company's common stock would be issuable upon conversion in full of the Convertible Debt purchased by the SPV. In addition, 38,961,039 shares of the Company's common stock would be issuable upon conversion in full of the Convertible Debt purchased by the Management Purchasers. Because the Company does not currently have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of common stock to issue upon conversion of all of the Convertible Debt, as described below only a portion of the Convertible Debt can be immediately converted into common stock. The remaining portion of the Convertible Debt cannot be converted into common stock unless and until the Company's certificate of incorporation is amended to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock to permit such conversion and/or provide for a reverse stock split of the common stock.

The Convertible Debt is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments for structural events, such as splits, distributions, dividends or combinations, and customary anti-dilution protections with respect to issuances of equity securities at a price below the applicable conversion price of the Convertible Debt. A portion of the Convertible Debt issued to the SPV was immediately . . .

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 20, 2022, effective upon the closing of the Private Placement, the agreement between the Company, Osmium Partners, LLC and Osmium Larkspur, pursuant to which Osmium Larkspur was entitled to designate members of the Company's board of directors (the "Director Agreement"), was terminated. The Director Agreement had provided Osmium Larkspur with certain rights to appoint members of the Company's board of directors. Termination of the Director Agreement was a condition to the closing of the Private Placement.


 Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an

            Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.



The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The issuance of the Convertible Debt pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, together with the issuance of shares of the Company's common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Debt, is a private placement to "accredited investors" (as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), and is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) thereunder. No underwriting discounts or commissions are payable as a result of the offer, sale and issuance by the Company of the Convertible Debt. Piper Sandler, the Company's placement agent for the transaction, received a placement fee of $2.5 million in connection with the Private Placement.

As discussed above, on September 20, 2022, the SPV elected to convert a portion of the Convertible Debt into 90,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock.

Item 5.01 Change in Control of Registrant.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.01. Upon the closing of the Private Placement, the SPV designated five of the nine members of the Company's board of directors. See Item 5.02 below for additional information.

On September 21, 2022, the SPV elected to immediately convert a portion of the Convertible Debt, and through such conversion acquired ownership of a majority of the Company's outstanding common stock. Upon conversion in full of the Convertible Debt and based on the Company's outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis as of September 21, 2022, the SPV would own approximately 75% of the fully diluted voting power of the Company's common stock (not including any additional Convertible Debt that may be issued as a result of the Company being required or electing to make in-kind payments of interest as described further above).

The source of funds for the SPV's purchase of the Convertible Debt was cash contributed to the SPV by REV and Ayon Capital. The SPV did not assume control from any one individual stockholder or control group, and thus no disclosure is required under Item 5.01(a)(6) of Form 8-K. Additionally, there is no arrangement or understanding among the SPV and a former control group with respect to the election of directors or other matters.
