Mr. van Beuren currently is, and Mr. Patterson formerly was, a Trustee of the Major Stockholders’ Voting Trust (the “Voting Trust”) under a Voting Trust Agreement dated as of June 2, 1990, as amended April 3, 1991, May 30, 1991, March 2, 2000, January 24, 2001, October 1, 2002, June 1, 2008 and August 27, 2008 (as so amended, the “Voting Trust Agreement”). The Voting Trust was formed by certain descendants (and spouses, fiduciaries and a related foundation) of the late Dr. John T. Dorrance, Sr. The Voting Trust currently holds a total of 10,186,368 Shares.
This Amendment is filed to report that on October 9, 2018, Mr. Patterson resigned as a Trustee of the Voting Trust and that both Mr. van Beuren and Mr. Patterson have ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Shares. See Item 5 below.
Information with respect to each of the Reporting Persons is given solely by the respective filing person, and no Reporting Person has any responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of information supplied by any other Reporting Person.
Item 5 is amended to read in full as set forth below.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a)-(b) For the number of Shares as to which each Reporting Person has sole or shared voting power or sole or shared dispositive power as well as the aggregate amount of Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and the percentage of the outstanding Shares represented by such amount, please see Items 7 through 11 and 13 of the cover sheet for each Reporting Person.
Percentages have been calculated based upon 300,656,129 Shares outstanding as of September 17, 2018, as set forth in the Issuer’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 4, 2018.
Mr. Patterson’s sole and dispositive powers over the Shares reported on his cover sheet arise from his positions as Chairman of Brandywine Trust Company, a corporate trustee, and President of Abanco Management Corporation. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership in Shares held by his or her spouse, children, grandchildren, fiduciaries and related partnerships, trusts and foundations.
Following the resignation of Mr. Patterson as a Trustee of the Voting Trust, Mr. van Beuren is the sole Trustee of the Voting Trust and has authority to vote the Shares held in the Voting Trust. The Trustee does not have power to dispose of shares held under the Voting Trust, except the Trustee has power to dispose of Shares he has contributed. See Sections 5 and 9 of the Trust Agreement filed as Exhibit A to Amendment No. 1 to this Schedule 13D. The Voting Trust terminates on January 1, 2024 unless it is sooner terminated or extended.
| CUSIP No. 134 429 109 | Schedule 13D | page 6 of 8 |
(e) As of October 9, 2018, neither Mr. van Beuren nor Mr. Patterson is a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the outstanding Shares.
