Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 4 amends the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Newtyn Partners, LP, Newtyn TE Partners, LP, Newtyn Management, LLC, Newtyn Capital Partners, LP, Ledo Capital, LLC and Mr. Noah Levy (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) on October 27, 2020 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Shares”) of Garrett Motion Inc. (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
NP and NTE invested a total of approximately $32,042,893 to purchase 1,802,095 Shares (excluding commissions). The source of funds was NP and NTE’s capital available for investment. NP and NTE may effect purchases of Shares through margin accounts maintained for it with brokers, which extend margin credit as and when required to open or carry positions in their margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and such firms’ credit policies. Positions in Shares may be held in margin accounts and may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in such accounts. Such margin accounts may from time to time have debit balances. Because other securities may be held in such margin accounts, it may not be possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase Shares.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
On January 11, 2021, the Company entered into a Plan Support Agreement (including the term sheet attached thereto, the “Plan Support Agreement”) with the Equity Commitment Parties, Honeywell and the Consenting Noteholders (as defined therein), setting forth the terms by which the foregoing parties committed to provide capital to the Company in connection with its plan of reorganization. The Plan Support Agreement amended and restated the Third A&R Coordination Agreement, entered into by the Equity Commitment Parties, Honeywell and the Consenting Noteholders on December 22, 2020. The Plan Support Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference.
The Shareholder Parties by themselves or with the Equity Commitment Parties, Honeywell and the Consenting Noteholders (to the extent they own Shares) may be deemed to constitute a group for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Act. The Reporting Persons anticipate that the other Equity Commitment Parties, Honeywell and the Consenting Noteholders will file separate statements of beneficial ownership on Schedule 13D pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(2) under the Act, and any amendments thereto, containing their required information. The Reporting Persons assume no responsibility for the information contained in any filings by any other person. The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any securities beneficially owned or acquired by any other person except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein. As of the date of this Amendment No. 4, based on information provided by the other Equity Commitment Parties, Honeywell and the Consenting Noteholders, the Reporting Persons believe that the Equity Commitment Parties, Honeywell and the Consenting Noteholders beneficially own in the aggregate 57.6% of the 75,788,279 outstanding Shares, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 2, 2020.
