Schedule 13D CUSIP No. 774415103 | Page 6 of 11 Pages |

SCHEDULE 13D
| ||||
Schedule 13D CUSIP No. 774415103 | Page 7 of 11 Pages |
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
The Shares reported in Item 5 as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons were acquired with funds of approximately $344,099,492.65 (including brokerage commissions). All funds to acquire the Shares were provided from capital of the Accounts.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
On July 15, 2014, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Albemarle Corporation (“Albemarle”) for the purpose of Albemarle’s acquiring control of the entire equity interest in the Issuer. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding Share of the Issuer will be exchanged for $50.65 in cash and 0.4803 shares of Albemarle common stock. Since some of the Shares were acquired following the public announcement of the tender offer, under interpretations of the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have acquired the Shares in connection with the proposed takeover. The Shares reported herein were acquired by the Reporting Persons for investment purposes and not with a view towards changing or influencing control of the Issuer.
The Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire, or cause to be acquired, additional securities of the Issuer or derivatives or other instruments related thereto, to dispose of, or cause to be disposed of, such securities, derivatives or other instruments related thereto at any time and to formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or any of its securities.
Except as otherwise set forth in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals at this time that relate to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
(a) | The aggregate number and percentage of Shares reported to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in this Schedule 13D is 4,155,950 Shares, constituting approximately 5.83% of the Shares outstanding, based upon 71,237,377 Shares outstanding as of August 1, 2014, as reflected in the Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer on August 8, 2014. |
As of the date of this filing:
(i) OZ, OZHC, OZM and Mr. Och may be deemed beneficially to own 4,155,950 Shares, constituting approximately 5.83% of the Shares outstanding.
(b) | Shared voting and dispositive powers of the Reporting Persons: |
(i) OZ, OZHC, OZM and Mr. Och have shared voting and dispositive powers over the 4,155,950 Shares reported herein. As some of the Shares reported herein are held in Accounts managed by OZ Management II LP (“OZII”), a Delaware limited partnership, and OZII is a wholly-owned subsidiary of OZ, OZ shares voting and dispositive power over some of the Shares reported herein with OZII. Och-Ziff Holding II LLC (“OZHII”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the general partner of OZII and OZ is the sole member of OZHII. Consequently, OZ shares voting and dispositive power over some of the Shares reported herein with OZHII.
SCHEDULE 13D
| ||||
Schedule 13D CUSIP No. 774415103 | Page 8 of 11 Pages |
(ii) OZM as the sole shareholder of OZHC and may be deemed to control voting and dispositive power over the 4,155,950 Shares reported herein.
(iii) Mr. Och, as Chief Executive Officer and Executive Managing Director of OZM, may be deemed to control voting and dispositive power over the 4,155,950 Shares reported herein.
(c) | Information concerning transactions in the securities of the Issuer during the past sixty days effected by the Accounts for which the Reporting Persons have management and discretionary authority is set forth in Schedule I hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. |
(d) | No person other than the Accounts has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds of the sale, of the securities being reported herein. |
(e) | Not applicable. |
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
The Reporting Persons may, from time to time, enter into and dispose of cash-settled equity swap or other similar derivative transactions with one or more counterparties that are based upon the value of the Shares of the Issuer, which transactions may be significant in amount. The profit, loss and/or return on such contracts may be wholly or partially dependent upon the market value of the Shares, the relative value of the Shares in comparison to one or more other financial instruments, indexes or securities, a basket or group of securities in which the Shares may be included, or a combination of any of the foregoing. These contracts will not give the Reporting Persons direct or indirect voting, or dispositive control over any securities of the Issuer and do not require the counterparties thereto to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Issuer. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim any beneficial ownership in any securities that may be referenced in such contracts or that may be held from time to time by any counterparties to such contracts.
Accounts managed by the Reporting Persons have entered into long cash-settled swaps on customary terms referencing 372,716 of the Issuer’s Shares.
Except as otherwise described in this Schedule 13D, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 hereof and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any other securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, divisions of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
