The following constitutes Amendment No. 4 ("Amendment No. 4") to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned. This Amendment No. 4 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
Item 3. |
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
|
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
Elliott Working Capital
|
The aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock owned by Elliott through Manchester Securities Corp., a New York corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Manchester") and through The Liverpool Limited Partnership, a Bermuda limited partnership and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Elliott ("Liverpool"), is approximately $580,760,015.

|
The aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock directly owned by Elliott International is approximately $1,225,479,048.
|
The Reporting Persons may effect purchases of shares of Common Stock through margin accounts maintained for them with prime brokers, which extend margin credit as and when required to open or carry positions in their margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and such firms' credit policies. Positions in shares of Common Stock may be held in margin accounts and may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in such accounts. Since other securities may be held in such margin accounts, it may not be possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase shares of Common Stock.
Item 5. |
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
|
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) As of the date hereof, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA collectively have combined economic exposure in the Issuer of approximately 4.95% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 343,993,608 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 1, 2018 as reported in the Issuer's Interim Report on Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 3, 2018.
As of the date hereof, Elliott through Liverpool and Manchester, beneficially owned 5,317,859 shares of Common Stock, constituting 1.5% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
As of the date hereof, Elliott International beneficially owned 11,297,246 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 3.3% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. EICA, as the investment manager of Elliott International may be deemed to beneficially own the 11,297,246 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Elliott International, constituting approximately 3.3% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Collectively, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA beneficially owned 16,615,105 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 4.8% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Collectively, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA have economic exposure comparable to 4.95% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding pursuant to the Derivative Agreements, as disclosed in Item 6.
(b) Elliott has the power to vote or direct the vote of, and to dispose or direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock owned directly by it.
Elliott International has the shared power with EICA to vote or direct the vote of, and to dispose or direct the disposition of, the shares of Common Stock owned directly by Elliott International. Information regarding each of Elliott International and EICA is set forth in Item 2 of this Schedule 13D and is expressly incorporated by reference herein.
(c) The transactions effected by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days are set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto.
(d) No person other than Elliott has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Elliott.
No person other than Elliott International and EICA has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Elliott International and EICA.
(e) Effective May 22, 2018, the Reporting Persons ceased to have economic exposure in the Issuer to more than 5.0% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.

|
The first paragraph of Item 6 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
As of the close of business on May 24, 2018, Elliott, both directly and through Liverpool, and Elliott International have entered into notional principal amount derivative agreements (the "Derivative Agreements") in the form of cash settled swaps with respect to 134,319 and 285,431 shares of Common Stock, respectively. Collectively, the Derivative Agreements held by the Reporting Persons represent economic exposure comparable to an interest in 0.1% of the shares of Common Stock. The Derivative Agreements provide Elliott and Elliott International with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership but do not provide them with the power to vote or direct the voting or dispose of or direct the disposition of the shares that are referenced in the Derivative Agreements (such shares, the "Subject Shares"). The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership in the Subject Shares. The counterparties to the Derivative Agreements are unaffiliated third party financial institutions.
