This Amendment No. 6 (this “Amendment”) to Schedule 13D is filed by the undersigned to amend and supplement the Schedule 13D, filed on May 20, 2011 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto, filed on December 28, 2011, by Amendment No. 2 thereto, filed on February 9, 2012, by Amendment No. 3 thereto, filed on October 16, 2012, by Amendment 4 thereto, filed on December 10, 2012, and by Amendment No. 5 thereto, filed on March 21, 2013 (as amended, the “Amended Schedule 13D”) with respect to the common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Merisel, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merisel”), which has its principal executive offices at 132 West 31st Street, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10001. Defined terms used in this Amendment but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Amended Schedule 13D.
 

Saints Capital Granite, L.P. and Saints Capital Granite, LLC are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons.”

The February Note, the August Note and the November Note, each as previously described in the Amended Schedule 13D, are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Convertible Notes.”

Item 4.     Purpose of Transaction.
 
Item 4 of the Amended Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following information:
 
On April 2, 2013, the Reporting Persons advised Merisel that they were considering terminating Merisel’s status as a public company.  The Reporting Persons expect that a third-party valuation firm will determine a fair value for Merisel.  If the Reporting Persons consider the valuation reasonable, the Reporting Persons would expect to convert the necessary amount of Convertible Notes to cause the Reporting Persons’ holdings of Common Stock of Merisel to exceed 90% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and implement a short-form merger in which minority shareholders will receive cash for their shares of Common Stock.

 
This Amendment includes “forward-looking statements,” including statements that are predictive or express expectations that depend on future events or conditions that involve risks and uncertainties.  There can be no assurance that the Reporting Persons will find the valuation of Merisel reasonable and, therefore, there is no assurance a going-private transaction will occur.
