On the date of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 14), the Filing Persons are the beneficial owners of, in the aggregate, 9,934,181 Common Shares, representing 19.1% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Shares. The Filing Persons’ percentage beneficial ownership has been computed as a percentage of 52,092,626 Common Shares, as reported by the Issuer in its Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 filed as Exhibit 99.2 to its Report on Form 6-K for the month of November 2015 filed on November 13, 2015. The number of Common Shares and the percentage of the Issuer’s Common Shares beneficially owned by each Filing Person are as follows:

All shares reported as beneficially owned by the Filing Persons are presently outstanding. Mr. Friedberg, directly and through his control over FCMI Parent shares held by members of his family and trusts for the benefit of members of his family, may be considered the sole beneficial owner of all of the Common Shares beneficially owned by FCMI Parent. By virtue of his control of FCMI Parent, Mr. Friedberg also may be deemed to possess voting and dispositive power over the shares owned directly by its wholly-owned subsidiaries, FCMI and PABTL. As trustees of Buckingham, each of Mr. Friedberg and Ms. Friedberg possesses voting and dispositive power over the Common Shares owned by Buckingham and may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of such Common Shares. Except for such beneficial ownership by Albert D. Friedberg and by Ms. Friedberg, none of the directors or officers of FCMI Parent, FCMI or PABTL, and none of the trustees of Buckingham, beneficially own any Common Shares.

With the exception of (i) FCMI Parent’s purchase of 168,465 Common Shares in the transactions described in Item 5, (ii) FCMI’s sale of 500,000 Common Shares and FCMI Parent’s entry into the cash-settled share swap transaction described above, and (iii) the transactions listed in Item 5 of Amendment No. 13 to the Filing Persons’ Schedule 13D, none of the Filing Persons, and none of their respective directors, officers or trustees has effected any transactions in the Issuer’s Common Shares in the 60 days preceding the filing of this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 14).

The 2016 TRS Agreement described in Item 6 below provides only for cash settlement. None of FCMI Parent, the other Filing Persons, nor any of their affiliates or associates shall have any voting or dispositive power with respect to any Underlying Shares and FCMI Parent, the other Filing Persons, and their affiliates and associates disclaim beneficial ownership of any such securities.

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the following information:

Contemporaneously with FCMI’s sale of 500,000 Common Shares to NBC described in Item 5, on January 21, 2016, FCMI Parent entered into a total return swap transaction evidenced by an ISDA master agreement, credit support annex and transaction confirmation (collectively the “2016 TRS Agreement”) with NBC. Pursuant to the terms of the 2016 TRS Agreement, NBC sold to FCMI Parent the total return on 500,000 Common Shares (the “Underlying Shares”) in exchange for a monthly payment calculated on a per diem basis for the number of days in the applicable calculation period by multiplying the notional amount of the transaction applicable for any particular day in the relevant calculation period by the sum of a designated LIBOR-based rate with a maturity of one month and a spread of 1.25% divided by 360.

The initial price for the Underlying Shares is equal to US$5.95 per share. The final price is the average of the modified volume weighted average price (as calculated pursuant to the 2016 TRS Agreement) applicable to each averaging day agreed to by the parties from and including April 25, 2018, weighted by the number of Underlying Shares that were reduced by NBC on the relevant averaging date minus a commission of US$0.02 per Underlying Share sold by NBC on such averaging date. On the applicable cash settlement date, the initial price of the Underlying Shares specified for the transaction shall be deducted from the final price for the Underlying Shares and such amount shall be multiplied by the number of Underlying Shares subject to the transaction. If the final price for the Underlying Shares exceeds the initial price for the Underlying Shares, such that the product of such determination is positive, NBC shall pay the amount so determined to FCMI Parent. If the initial price for the Underlying Shares exceeds the final price for the Underlying Shares, such that the product of such determination is negative, FCMI Parent shall pay the absolute value of the amount so determined to NBC. To the extent that there are any dividends paid by the Issuer on the Common Shares, NBC will pay to FCMI Parent an amount per Underlying Share equivalent to the per Share dividend paid by the Issuer.

NBC and FCMI Parent have the right to terminate the transaction if it becomes illegal for FCMI Parent to continue with the transaction. FCMI Parent has the right to terminate the transaction in whole or in part at any time following the fortieth day following the effective date of the transaction and prior to the valuation date. In the case of early termination of the transaction the date designated for termination will be the valuation date in respect of the number of Underlying Shares subject to such early termination. If FCMI Parent elects to terminate the transaction in circumstances not involving any illegality, FCMI Parent will be required to pay to NBC a make-whole payment equal to the product of the terminated number of Underlying Shares, the initial price per Underlying Share and D/360 where “D” represents the number of calendar days from, but excluding, the optional early termination date, to and including the calendar day that falls on the day that is six months after the effective date of the transaction.

In addition to the provisions described above, the confirmation includes certain representations and warranties by NBC as to its non-U.S. status made to support FCMI’s offer and sale of the Common Shares to NBC without registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) in an “offshore transaction” pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act. NBC agreed that the Common Shares would include certain restrictions reflecting the limits on disposition of the Common Shares under the 1933 Act.

The foregoing description of the documents comprising the 2016 TRS Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the related agreements, which are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 14) and are incorporated herein by reference.
