Item 1. Security and Issuer

 

This statement constitutes Amendment Number 1 to the Schedule 13D relating to the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Navistar International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and hereby amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2017 (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”) on behalf of the Reporting Persons to furnish the additional information set forth herein. The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 2701 Navistar Drive, Lisle, Illinois 60532. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background

 

Item 2(d) is hereby amended in its entirety by replacing it with the following:

 

(d)       During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule A have been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) except that on January 11, 2017, Volkswagen waived indictment and entered a plea agreement with the United States under Rule 11(c)(1)(C) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. A copy of the plea agreement can be found at: https://www.justice.gov/opa/press-release/file/924436/download. The plea agreement concerns conduct related to the introduction into the United States of diesel vehicles with defeat devices as defined under U.S. law. Neither VW T&B, nor any of the persons listed on Schedule A, is a party to the plea agreement. On March 10, 2017, Volkswagen entered, and the presiding court, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, accepted, a guilty plea to conspiracy to commit fraud, obstruction of justice and entry of goods by false statement charges. At the sentencing on April 21, 2017, the Court entered the plea agreement, which provides for payment of a criminal fine of $2.8 billion and the appointment of an independent compliance monitor for a period of three years. The monitor will assess, oversee and monitor the company's compliance with the terms of the plea agreement, including measures to further strengthen Volkswagen's compliance, reporting and monitoring mechanisms and implementation of an enhanced ethics program.

  

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 is hereby amended in its entirety by replacing it with the following:

 

In the aggregate, the purchase price for the Common Stock was $267,384,328.97. The purchase price for the 16,242,012 shares of Common Stock bought pursuant to the Purchase Agreement was $255,974,109.12, or $15.76 per share of Common Stock. Such price was funded by Volkswagen to VW T&B through internally generated funds. The purchase price for the 387,655 shares of Common Stock bought pursuant to the Rule 10b5-1 plan was $11,410,219.85, or an average of $29.43 per share of Common Stock. Such price was funded by Volkswagen to VW T&B through internally generated funds.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 is hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraphs:

 

On June 16, 2017, VW T&B entered into a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan with Kepler Cheuvreux S.A. (“Kepler”) pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “10b5-1 Plan). The description of the 10b5-1 Plan set forth in Item 6 below is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The transactions completed under the 10b5-1 Plan resulted in the acquisition of securities of the Issuer as further described in Item 5 below.

 

On April 16, 2018, various news sources interpreted remarks, during a question and answer session, by representatives of VW T&B to suggest that an acquisition of the Issuer by VW T&B is under consideration. VW T&B is not reporting any changes to its plans or proposals for the Issuer as set forth in this Section 4 of this Statement, although as previously disclosed, VW T&B continuously reviews its investment in the Issuer and may in

 

Page 4 of 10 

 

the future determine to undertake various actions in connection with its investment, including the possible acquisition of the Issuer.

 

In addition, it was reported that a representative of VW T&B had stated that increases by VW T&B in its level of ownership of the Issuer above current levels would not be possible without VW T&B being required by Delaware law to make an offer to acquire all of the remaining outstanding shares of Common Stock not owned by it. VW T&B hereby corrects such statement by noting that neither U.S. securities law nor Delaware law includes such a requirement.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 5(a) and Item 5(b) are hereby amended in their entirety by replacing them with the following:

 

(a)       The information relating to the beneficial ownership of Common Stock by each of the Reporting Persons as set forth in rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages hereto is incorporated by reference. The Reporting Persons are each the beneficial owners of 16,629,667 shares of Common Stock, which represents 16.85% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding based on 98,689,315 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 28, 2018 (as reported on the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended January 31, 2018). Except as set forth in this Item 5(a), none of the Reporting Persons, and, to the best of their knowledge, any persons named in Schedule A hereto owns beneficially any shares of Common Stock (except as disclosed on the Form 3s and Form 4s filed by each of Andreas Renschler and Matthias Gründler).

 

(b)       VW T&B has shared power to vote and dispose of 16,629,667 shares of Common Stock. Volkswagen has shared power to vote and to dispose of 16,629,667 shares of Common Stock.

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

Items 6 is hereby supplemented with the following:

 

10b5-1 Plan

 

On June 16, 2017, VW T&B entered into the 10b5-1 Plan with Kepler. The 10b5-1 Plan terminated in accordance with its terms on December 28, 2017. Under the 10b5-1 Plan, Kepler was authorized to purchase shares of Common Stock on behalf of VW T&B. All purchases under the 10b5-1 Plan were to be made in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions of the 10b5-1 Plan and the Reporting Persons did not have any control, influence or authority over purchases made pursuant to the 10b5-1 Plan.
