ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as
follows:
(a) and (b) Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. Such
information is based on 241,563,446 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of August 1, 2016, as reported in the Issuers Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 4, 2016.
The Investment Vehicles have delegated to Scopia Capital sole voting and investment power over the securities held by the Investment Vehicles pursuant to
their respective Investment Management Agreements with Scopia Capital. As a result, each of Scopia Capital, Scopia Management, as the general partner of Scopia Capital, and Messrs. Sirovich and Mindich, as Managing Directors of Scopia Management,
may be deemed to exercise voting and investment power over the shares of Class A Common Stock directly held by the Investment Vehicles. The Investment Vehicles specifically disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities of the Issuer
directly held by them by virtue of their inability to vote or dispose of such securities as a result of their respective Investment Management Agreements with Scopia Capital.
(c) Transactions by the Reporting Persons (on behalf of the Investment Vehicles) effected during the past 60 days are set forth in Schedule A below and
such information is incorporated herein by reference.
(d) The disclosure regarding the relationship between the Reporting Persons in Item 2(c) of
this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference herein. All securities reported in this Schedule 13D are directly held by the Investment Vehicles, all of which are investment management clients of Scopia Capital. None of the Investment Vehicles
individually directly holds more than 5% of the Issuers outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. The limited partners of (or investors in) each of the Investment Vehicles have the right to participate in the receipt of dividends
from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Class A Common Stock held for the accounts of their respective Investment Vehicles in accordance with their respective limited partnership interests (or investment percentages) in their
respective Investment Vehicles.
(e) Not applicable.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Item
6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
One of the Investment Vehicles has entered into cash-settled swaps which represent
economic exposure comparable to a notional interest in 297,841 shares of Class A Common Stock (representing economic exposure comparable to approximately 0.1% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock). Under the terms of the swaps, (i)
the Investment Vehicle will be obligated to pay to the counterparty any negative price performance of the specified notional number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to the swaps as of the expiration date of such swaps, plus interest rates
set forth in the applicable contracts, and (ii) the counterparty will be obligated to pay the Investment Vehicle any positive price performance of the specified notional number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to the swaps as of the
expiration date of the swaps. All balances will be settled in cash. The Reporting Persons counterparty for the swaps is Barclays Bank PLC. The swaps do not give the Reporting Persons or the Investment Vehicles direct or indirect
voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the Issuer and do not require the counterparty thereto to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim any
beneficial ownership of any shares of Class A Common Stock that may be referenced in the swap contracts or shares of Class A Common Stock or other securities or financial instruments that may be held from time to time by any counterparty to the
contracts.
