Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 28 have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 28 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Original Schedule 13D.
The tender offer by Compagnie Maritime Belge NV (“CMB” or the “Offeror”) referred to in this Amendment No. 28 has not yet commenced. This Schedule 13D is for informational purposes only, and is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer or any other securities, nor is it a substitute for the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO and other necessary filings that the Offeror will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 and other necessary filings that the Issuer will file with the Commission, at the time the tender offer is commenced. Any solicitation and offer to buy Ordinary Shares will only be made pursuant to an offer to purchase and related tender offer materials. At the time the tender offer is commenced, the Offeror will file with the Commission a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO and other necessary filings, and in connection therewith, the Issuer will file with the Commission a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 and other necessary filings. The Tender Offer Statement (including an offer to purchase, a related letter of transmittal and certain other offer documents) and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 will contain important information. U.S. holders of Ordinary Shares are urged to read these documents carefully when they become available because they will contain important information that U.S. holders of Ordinary Shares should consider before making any decision with respect to the tender offer. When the tender offer is commenced, the offer to purchase, the related letter of transmittal and the solicitation/recommendation statement and other filings related to the offer will be made available for free at the Commission’s website at www.sec.gov. U.S. holders of Ordinary Shares also may obtain free copies of the Tender Offer Statement and other offer documents that the Offeror will file with the Commission by contacting the information agent for the tender offer that will be named in the Tender Offer Statement and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 28, which is incorporated herein by reference, and by adding the following information:
As of the date of this Amendment No. 28, the aggregate outstanding principal amount under the Facilities Agreement related to the Offeror’s mandatory public takeover bid to purchase all outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer that the Offeror and its affiliates did not already own which expired on March 15, 2024, and was consummated on April 3, 2024 (the “Completed Mandatory Bid”), is approximately $500 million.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction
Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
FSMA Order
On September 8, 2024, the Issuer issued a press release announcing that the Market Court in Belgium (the “Market Court”) had issued its ruling on September 6, 2024 which largely rejected the claims brought by certain funds managed by FourWorld Capital Management, LLC (“FourWorld”) in connection with the Completed Mandatory Bid.
FourWorld’s application sought, among other things, to challenge the price paid in the Completed Mandatory Bid, alleging that it did not reflect certain purported special benefits that were allegedly granted to Frontline in connection with the sale of certain vessels by the Issuer to Frontline in addition to the price paid by the Offeror for the shares of the Issuer owned by Frontline. FourWorld also requested that the Market Court order the Offeror to adjust the bid price in the Completed Mandatory Bid to account for these alleged special benefits. In its ruling dated September 6, 2024, the Market Court dismissed the majority of FourWorld’s claims as inadmissible and/or unfounded. However, the Market Court found that the pricing of certain vessels sold by the Issuer to Frontline implied certain special benefits to Frontline. The Market Court calculated these benefits to be $0.52 per share. The Market Court did not order CMB or the Financial Services and Markets Authority of Belgium (the “FSMA”) to increase the bid price, but rather the judgment indicated that the FSMA retained discretionary authority to decide whether such a bid price increase is warranted.
On October 7, 2024, the FSMA ordered CMB to (i) pay $0.52 per share to all shareholders whose shares were validly tendered in the Offers that closed on March 15, 2024 and (ii) reopen the Belgian Offer at an adjusted offer price of $12.66 per share (the “Adjusted Offer Price”). The Adjusted Offer Price takes into account the initial reference price of the Offers of $18.43, increased by $0.52, in accordance with the order by the FSMA, and decreased by $6.29 (the aggregate amount of distributions made by the Issuer since the initial announcement of the Belgian Offer on October 9, 2023).
Additional Payment Relating to the Offers
As ordered by the FSMA in the FSMA Order, CMB will pay to all shareholders whose shares were validly tendered in the Offers that closed on March 15, 2024, an additional $0.52 per share (the “Subsequent Payment”). As CMB previously announced, 69,241,955 Ordinary Shares were validly tendered in the prior Offers. CMB expects to make the Subsequent Payment (totaling approximately $36.0 million) as ordered by the FSMA on October 31, 2024.
The Belgian Reopening and the New U.S. Tender Offer
The FSMA also ordered CMB to reopen its unconditional mandatory public takeover bid (the “Belgian Reopening”) for all Ordinary Shares of the Issuer that CMB and its affiliates do not already own in accordance with the provisions of the Act of 1 April 2007 on takeover bids (the “Takeover Act”) and Chapter III of the Royal Decree of 27 April 2007 on takeover bids (the “Takeover RD”) at the Adjusted Offer Price.
On October 9, 2024 CMB issued a press release announcing that it will commence the Belgian Reopening which will be conducted concurrently with a new tender offer open to shareholders of the Issuer that are resident in the United States (the “New U.S. Tender Offer”) at the Adjusted Offer Price. The Adjusted Offer Price may be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the gross amount per share of any future distributions by the Issuer to its shareholders with a payment date prior to the settlement date of the Belgian Reopening and the New U.S. Tender Offer.
In accordance with the order of the FSMA, the acceptance period of the Belgian Reopening is expected to open at the latest on December 4, 2024. The New U.S. tender offer will be made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an offer to purchase, letter of transmittal and related documents that CMB will file as part of a tender offer statement on Schedule TO with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A copy of the press release announcing the Subsequent Payment, the Belgian Reopening and the New U.S. Tender Offer is attached hereto as Exhibit R and incorporated by reference herein.
The Reporting Persons review their respective investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may, at any time, determine to increase or decrease their ownership of Ordinary Shares through purchases or sales in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means. At the time of filing this Amendment No. 28, except as disclosed in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) any change in the board of directors or management of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iv) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (v) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, (vi) changes in the Issuer’s charter or bylaws or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (vii) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or cease to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (viii) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act or (ix) any action similar to any of those described above. However, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, engage in discussions, whether initiated by the Reporting Persons or another party, concerning proposals for transactions or other arrangements that may relate to or, if consummated, result in an event described in clauses (i) through (ix) of this paragraph. The Reporting Persons may review and evaluate their investments in the Issuer at any time, whether in light of the discussions described in the immediately preceding sentence or otherwise, which may give rise to plans or proposals that, if consummated, would result in one or more of the events described in clauses (i) through (ix) of this paragraph. Further, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, be involved in discussions which relate to one or more of the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of this paragraph. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims any obligation to report on any plans or proposals with respect to the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of this paragraph that develop or occur as a result of any Reporting Person’s role as a director or executive officer of the Issuer and participation in decisions regarding the Issuer’s actions.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
| (a) and (b) | The percentage of outstanding Ordinary Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is set forth on line 13 of such Reporting Person’s cover sheet and is incorporated herein. Such percentage was calculated for each Reporting Person based on 194,216,835 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2024 (not including treasury shares), as reported in the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 6-K/A furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 13, 2024. | |
| (c) | None of the Reporting Persons nor (to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge) any person set forth in Item 2, has engaged in any transactions in the Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days. | |
| (d) | To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no other person other than the Reporting Persons has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons identified in this Item 5. | |
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
As of the date of this Amendment No. 28, the aggregate outstanding principal amount under the Facilities Agreement is approximately $500 million.
