CUSIP No. 629410309

 

Pursuant to Rule 13d-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 5”) amends the Schedule 13D originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 29, 2008 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on December 19, 2008 (“Amendment No. 1”), Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the SEC on January 14, 2011 (“Amendment No. 2”), Amendment No. 3 thereto filed with the SEC on January 14, 2011 (“Amendment No. 3”) and Amendment No. 4 thereto filed with the SEC on March 7, 2012 (“Amendment No. 4”) (the Original Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4 and this Amendment No. 5 are collectively referred to herein as the “Schedule 13D”).

 

This Amendment No. 5 relates to the shares of Common Stock (the “Stock”) of NTN Buzztime, Inc. (the “Issuer”) owned by Matador Capital Partners, L.P. (the “Fund”), BFK Investments LLC (“BFK”), the general partner of the Fund, and Jeffrey A. Berg, the Managing Member of BFK. The Fund, BFK and Jeffrey A. Berg are collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons”). Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 5, items in the Schedule 13D are unchanged.

 

Information in this Amendment No. 5 with respect to each of the Reporting Persons is given solely by that particular Reporting Person, and none of the other Reporting Persons has any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of information with respect to any other Reporting Person. Capitalized terms used herein that are not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3.            Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

The information provided in Item 5 of this Amendment No. 5 is incorporated by reference to this Item 3.

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:

Item 5.            Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended by replacing them in their entirety with the following:

 

(a), (b) & (d): Each Reporting Person's beneficial ownership of the Stock on the date of this Amendment No. 5 is reflected on that Reporting Person's cover page of this Amendment No. 5.

The Reporting Persons are filing the Schedule 13D jointly, but not as members of a group, and each of them expressly disclaims membership in a group. Each of BFK and Mr. Berg disclaims beneficial ownership of the Stock except to the extent of that Reporting Person's pecuniary interest therein. In addition, the filing of the Schedule 13D on behalf of the Fund should not be construed as an admission that any of the other Reporting Persons is, and each of them disclaims that it is, the beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, of any of the Stock covered by the Schedule 13D.
