Item 4.
|
Purpose of Transaction.
|
On June 11, 2015, the Reporting Persons delivered a letter to the Issuer calling for fundamental change at the Issuer and outlining a strategic and operating plan for the Issuer that the Reporting Persons believe, if implemented, could lead to a stock price of $90 to $100+ per share by the end of 2016.
In the letter, the Reporting Persons expressed their belief that the Issuer has leading technology franchises in attractive markets but has struggled operationally for years and consequently missed a profound value creation opportunity to capitalize on those franchises. As a result, the Issuer’s operations and product portfolio represent an opportunity for improvement of uniquely significant magnitude. As explained in the letter, the Reporting Persons have developed an operational plan for the Issuer designed to maximize this opportunity through fundamental changes to key components of the Issuer, including implementation of operational best practices, evaluation of high-value non-core assets and capital allocation.
It is the Reporting Persons’ belief that by implementing their strategic and operating plan and providing the oversight necessary to ensure its execution, the Issuer can achieve a stock price of $90 – $100+ per share by the end of 2016. The Reporting Persons have requested a meeting with the Board of Directors of the Issuer to share the details of their plan. A copy of the letter is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor (i) to increase or decrease their respective positions in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of securities of the Issuer on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable and/or (ii) to enter into transactions that increase or hedge their economic exposure to the Common Stock without affecting their beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock.
No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons may take positions or make proposals with respect to potential changes in the operations, management, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, Board of Directors composition, ownership, capital or corporate structure, dividend policy, strategy and plans of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value or may change their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4. Although the Reporting Persons had no plans or proposals at the time of their various purchases and do not have plans or proposals at present, the Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may from time to time in the future express their views to and/or meet with management, the Board of Directors of the Issuer, other shareholders or third parties, including, potential acquirers, service providers and financing sources, and/or formulate plans or proposals regarding the Issuer, its assets or its securities. Such proposals or positions may include one or more plans that relate to or would result in any of the actions required to be reported herein.
|
ITEM 5.
|
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
|
(a) As of the date hereof, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA collectively have combined economic exposure and voting power in the Issuer of approximately 7.1% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 160,287,615 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 30, 2015, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 8, 2015.
As of the date hereof, Elliott beneficially owned 1,860,800 shares of Common Stock, including 1,359,300 shares of Common Stock underlying options that are currently exercisable, constituting approximately 1.2% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
As of the date hereof, Elliott International beneficially owned 3,612,300 shares of Common Stock, including 2,638,800 shares of Common Stock underlying options that are currently exercisable, constituting approximately 2.3% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding. EICA, as the investment manager of Elliott International may be deemed to beneficially own the 3,612,300 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Elliott International, constituting approximately 2.3% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Collectively, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA beneficially own 5,473,100 shares of Common Stock, including 3,998,100 shares of Common Stock underlying currently exercisable options, constituting approximately 3.4% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Collectively, Elliott, Elliott International and EICA have economic exposure to approximately 3.7% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding pursuant to 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.

Item 6.
|
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
|
Elliott, through The Liverpool Limited Partnership, a Bermuda limited partnership and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Elliott “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 2,000,240 and 3,882,820 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, respectively (representing economic exposure to approximately 1.2% and 2.4% of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, respectively). Collectively, the Derivative Agreements held by the Reporting Persons represent the economic exposure to an interest in approximately 3.7% 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.
Elliott has purchased from counterparties call options that carry the right to call from such counterparties up to 1,359,300 shares of Common Stock at a price of $25 per share, if such right is exercised prior to or on July 18, 2015.
Elliott, itself and through Liverpool, has sold to counterparties put options that provide the counterparty the right to put to Elliott up to 476,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $67.5 per share, if such right is exercised prior to or on June 20, 2015.
Elliott, through Liverpool, has sold to counterparties put options that provide the counterparty the right to put to Elliott up to 241,400 shares of Common Stock at a price of $65 per share, if such right is exercised prior to or on June 20, 2015.
Elliott International has purchased from counterparties call options that carry the right to call from such counterparties up to 2,638,800 shares of Common Stock at a price of $25 per share, if such right is exercised prior to or on July 18, 2015.
Elliott International has sold to counterparties put options that provide the counterparty the right to put to Elliott International up to 924,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $67.5 per share, if such right is exercised prior to or on June 20, 2015.
Elliott International has sold to counterparties put options that provide the counterparty the right to put to Elliott International up to 468,600 shares of Common Stock at a price of $65 per share, if such right is exercised prior to or on June 20, 2015.
