The Reporting Persons acquired their shares of the Issuer’s common stock for investment purposes.

 

CPPIB-PHI is party to a Shareholders Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2016, with the Issuer and certain other stockholders of the issuer (the “Shareholders Agreement”). Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, effective as of the consummation of the Merger, CPPIB-PHI and certain other stockholders of the Issuer agreed, among other things, to vote their respective shares of the Issuer’s common stock in favor of certain individuals designated to the Issuer’s board of directors (“Board”) in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, including an individual designated by CPPIB-PHI (until the earlier of the day after the Issuer’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders or the time at which CPPIB-PHI ceases to beneficially own at least 2.5% of the then outstanding shares of the Issuer’s common stock). The foregoing description of the Shareholders Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Shareholders Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 and which exhibit is incorporated by reference in its entirety in this Item 4.

 

Each Reporting Person intends to review its investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. As a result thereof, a Reporting Person may communicate with members of the Issuer’s management, the Board and/or other relevant persons from time to time with respect to operational, strategic, financial or governance matters related to the Issuer. While the Reporting Persons do not have any current intent, plan or proposal to purchase any additional securities of the Issuer or sell any securities of the issuer, a Reporting Person may decide to purchase or sell securities of the Issuer from time to time in accordance with applicable securities laws depending upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, future market and economic conditions and developments affecting the Issuer, its business or its securities.

 

Except as otherwise set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons and, to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, the Covered Persons, do not have any current intention, plan or proposal which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated in items (a) through (i) above.

In addition, CPPIB directly owns 1,569,600 Common Shares, with respect to which it has sole voting power and sole dispositive power.

 

As a result of the Shareholders Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be members of a group (the “Group”) holding over 10% of the outstanding Common Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the Issuer’s securities owned by any member of the Group, other than the securities covered by this Schedule 13D, as listed in items 7-11 on pages 2 and 3 of this Schedule 13D.

 

(c)Other than as described in Item 3 above, none of the Reporting Persons, nor, to their knowledge, any of the Covered Persons, has effected any transaction in Common Shares during the past sixty (60) days.

 

(d)No person (other than the Reporting Persons) is known to any of the Reporting Persons or, to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, the Covered Persons, to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, any Common Shares covered by this Schedule 13D.

 

(e)Not applicable.

CPPIB-PHI is party to the Shareholders Agreement. See the second paragraph of Item 4, which is incorporated into this Item 6 by reference. In addition to providing for certain Board designation rights of certain stockholders, the Shareholders Agreement contains certain restrictions on transfers of Common Shares by certain stockholders and provides for certain registration rights of certain stockholders.

 

The foregoing description of the Shareholders Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Shareholders Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 and which exhibit is incorporated by reference in its entirety in this Item 4.
