This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 4”) relates to the Schedule 13D filed on January 31, 2018 (the “Initial 13D” and, as amended and supplemented through the date of this Amendment No. 4, collectively, the “Schedule 13D”) by the Reporting Persons, relating to the ordinary shares, nominal value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Cardtronics plc, a company organized under the laws of England and Wales (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 4 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment No. 4 is being filed to report an increase in the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage due to the acquisition of additional Shares by the Reporting Persons.

The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 4, the Schedule 13D is unchanged.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
 
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons are deemed to beneficially own the Subject Shares as detailed in Item 5. The aggregate purchase price for the Subject Shares is approximately $189,612,155.69.

The source of funding for the transactions pursuant to which the Reporting Persons obtained beneficial ownership of the Subject Shares (other than the Shares acquired by Mr. Braunstein upon the vesting of Restricted Stock United as described below) was derived from the respective capital of the HEC Funds.

Mr. Braunstein has acquired a total of 8,088 Shares between March 8, 2019 and March 11, 2020 upon the vesting of 8,088 of the Restricted Stock Units that were granted to him in his capacity as a director of the Issuer. 5,952 of the 14,040 Restricted Stock Units granted to Mr. Braunstein by the Issuer remain unvested and will convert into an equivalent number of Shares on March 9, 2021.

Item 5(a), (b) and (c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

(a) and (b) The Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 8,382,968 Shares (the “Subject Shares”), of which 8,374,880 are owned by the HEC Funds and the remaining 8,088 are owned by Mr. Braunstein. The Subject Shares represent approximately 18.9% of the issued and outstanding Shares based on an aggregate of 44,463,034 Shares outstanding as of May 6, 2020, as reported in the Issuer’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
