Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, the Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have meanings provided in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2. | Identity and Background |
The response set forth in Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following.
This Amendment is being filed jointly on behalf of (i) Morgan Stanley, a Delaware corporation (“MS Parent”), (ii) MS Holdings Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“MS Holdings”), (iii) Morgan Stanley Private Equity Asia III, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MS Inc”), (iv) Morgan Stanley Private Equity Asia III, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“MS LLC”), (v) Morgan Stanley Private Equity Asia III, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“MS LP”), (vi) Morgan Stanley Private Equity Asia Employee Investors III, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“MS Employee”), (vii) Morgan Stanley Private Equity Asia III Holdings (Cayman) Ltd, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (“MSPEA Holdings”) and (viii) MSPEA Agriculture Holding Limited, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (“MSPEA”) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) to report the purchase of 825,693 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the “Second Purchased Shares”) in the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $4,174,931.75, which excludes commissions of $33,087.73. The Reporting Persons have entered into a joint filing agreement, dated as of September 6, 2011, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The name, business address, present principal occupation or employment and citizenship of each director and executive officer of MS Parent, MS Holdings, MS Inc, MSPEA Holdings and MSPEA, and the name, business address, present principal occupation or employment and citizenship of each executive officer of MS LLC, MS LP and MS Employee are set forth in Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons listed on Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, has been (1) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (2) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws, other than, in the case of clause (2), as described in Schedule B attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
CUSIP No. 98607B106 | SC 13D | Page 12 |
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. |
The response set forth in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following.
MS LP and MS Employee provided internally generated funds to MSPEA to pay the purchase price for the Second Purchased Shares. The funds provided by MS LP and MS Employee (through MSPEA Holdings) were obtained from capital contributions made by their respective partners and from available funds of such entities. None of the individuals listed on Schedule A hereto has contributed any funds or other consideration towards the purchase of the Second Purchased Shares except insofar as they may have partnership or other interests in any of the Reporting Persons and have made capital contributions to any of the Reporting Persons, as the case may be.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
The response set forth in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following.
The Reporting Persons acquired the Second Purchased Shares for investment purposes.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
The response set forth in Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following.
The following disclosure assumes that there are 49,370,711 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 12, 2011, as set forth in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q/A, dated August 16, 2011 (the “Quarterly Report”). All calculations of beneficial ownership are made using the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 12, 2011 and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares as of August 12, 2011.
By virtue of relationships reported in Item 2, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to 7,297,026 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by MSPEA, which, based on calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), constitutes approximately 13.3% of the outstanding Common Stock. Neither the filing of this Amendment nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any Reporting Person (other than MSPEA to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein) that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Second Purchased Shares, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed. Taken together, the Additional Shares, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, the Purchased Shares and the Second Purchased Shares constitute approximately 13.5% of the outstanding Common Stock. Neither the filing of this Amendment nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner of any Additional
CUSIP No. 98607B106 | SC 13D | Page 13 |
Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998) (the “Release”), this Amendment reflects the securities beneficially owned by MS Reporting Units of MS. This Amendment does not reflect securities, if any, beneficially owned by any affiliates or operating units of MS whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of the MS Reporting Units in accordance with the Release. The MS Reporting Units disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned by (i) any client accounts with respect to which the MS Reporting Units or their employees have voting or investment discretion, or both, and (ii) certain investment entities of which the MS Reporting Units act as the general partner, managing general partner or other manager, to the extent interests in such entities are held by persons other than the MS Reporting Units.
MS Parent is filing this Amendment in its capacity as a parent company of MS Holdings, MS Inc, MS LLC, MS LP, MS Employee, MSPEA Holdings, MSPEA and the MS Reporting Units described above. The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment jointly pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act, provided that, as contemplated by Rule 13d-1(k)(ii), no Reporting Person shall be responsible for the completeness or accuracy of the information concerning the other persons making the filing of this Amendment, unless such Reporting Person knows or has reason to believe that such information is inaccurate.
To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons listed on Schedule A hereto beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock.
Except as set forth in Item 3 above and as set forth in Schedule C incorporated herein by reference, none of the Reporting Persons, or to their knowledge, any other person or entity referred to in Item 2 (including those listed on Schedule A hereto) has effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.
Except as set forth in this Item 5, no person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Second Purchased Shares.
Item 7. | Material to be Filed as Exhibits. |

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Morgan Stanley” means Morgan Stanley and its consolidated subsidiaries. Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (“MS&Co.”) and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (“MSSB LLC”), referenced below, are Morgan Stanley’s primary U.S. broker-dealers.
(a) In May 2007, MS&Co. consented, without admitting or denying the findings, to a censure, the entry of an order (the “Order”) that resolved the SEC’s investigation into violations of MS&Co.’s duty to obtain the best price possible for certain retail orders for over-the-counter securities processed by Morgan Stanley’s computerized market-making system from October 24, 2001 through December 8, 2004. Pursuant to the Order, Morgan Stanley was ordered to (1) cease and desist from committing any violations and any future violations of Section 15(c)(1)(A) of the Exchange Act, which prohibits broker-dealers from using manipulative, deceptive or fraudulent devices or contrivances to effect securities transactions, (2) pay disgorgement of $5,949,222 and pre-judgment interest thereon of $507,978 and (3) pay a civil money penalty of $1.5 million. Morgan Stanley also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to develop and implement a distribution plan for the disgorgement ordered, and to retain an independent compliance consultant to conduct a comprehensive review and provide a report on its automated retail order handling practices.
(b) On September 27, 2007, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) announced that Morgan Stanley entered into a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (the “AWC”) to resolve charges filed by FINRA on December 19, 2006. In the AWC, FINRA found that, among other things, Morgan Stanley provided inaccurate information regarding the existence of pre-September 11, 2001 emails and failed to provide such emails to arbitration claimants and regulators in response to discovery obligations and regulatory inquiries, failed adequately to preserve books and records, and failed to establish and maintain systems and written procedures reasonably designed to preserve required records and to ensure that it conducted adequate searches in response to regulatory inquiries and discovery requests. The AWC also included findings that Morgan Stanley failed to provide arbitration claimants with updates to a supervisory manual when called for in discovery. FINRA found that Morgan Stanley violated Section 17(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rule 17a-4 thereunder, NASD Conduct Rules 2110, 3010 (a) and (b) and 3110, NASD Procedural Rule 8210 and Interpretative Material 10100 under the NASD Code of Arbitration Procedure. In the settlement, Morgan Stanley neither admitted nor denied these findings. The settlement established a $9.5 million fund for the benefit of potentially affected arbitration claimants to be administered by a third party at the expense of Morgan Stanley. In addition, Morgan Stanley was censured and agreed to pay a $3 million regulatory fine and to retain an independent consultant to review its procedures for complying with discovery requirements in arbitration proceedings relating to Morgan Stanley’s retail brokerage operations.
SCHEDULE B
(c) Starting in July 2003, Morgan Stanley received subpoenas and requests for information from various regulatory and governmental agencies, including the SEC, the NYSE and various states, in connection with industry-wide investigations of broker-dealers and mutual fund complexes relating to possible late trading and market timing of mutual funds. In December 2007, Morgan Stanley settled all claims with the SEC concerning late trading and market timing of mutual funds in the retail system over the period from January 2002 to August 2003. Under the terms of the settlement, Morgan Stanley will, among other things, be censured and pay a monetary fine.
(d) On September 30, 2009, Morgan Stanley entered into an administrative settlement agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to resolve certain violations of the U.S. environmental laws allegedly committed by Morgan Stanley during 2005. These alleged violations included: distribution of approximately 2.7 million gallons of reformulated gasoline that failed to comply with maximum benzene content limitations; failure to report volume and property information for each batch of gasoline blendstock imported and reformulated gasoline produced; failure to conduct an annual attest engagement; and failure to provide product transfer documents for each transfer of reformulated gasoline and each batch of previously certified gasoline. Without admitting or denying the EPA’s allegations, Morgan Stanley agreed to resolve these matters for a civil penalty of $405,000.
(e) On June 24, 2010, Morgan Stanley and the Office of the Attorney General for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (“Massachusetts OAG”) entered into an Assurance of Discontinuance (“AOD”) to resolve the Massachusetts OAG’s investigation of Morgan Stanley’s financing, purchase and securitization of certain subprime residential mortgages. The AOD provides for Morgan Stanley to make payments totaling approximately $102.7 million, and for Morgan Stanley to use its best efforts to implement certain business practices related to such activities on a prospective basis.
In addition, MS&Co. has been involved in a number of civil proceedings and regulatory actions which concern matters arising in connection with the conduct of its business. Certain of such proceedings have resulted in findings of violation of federal or state securities laws. Such proceedings are reported and summarized in the MS&Co. Form BD filed with the SEC, which descriptions are hereby incorporated by reference. The MSSB LLC Form BD filed with the SEC is also hereby incorporated by reference.
