CUSIP NO. 930059100, 930059209 SCHEDULE 13D Page 7 of 10 This Amendment No. 11 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 20, 2000 by BLUM Capital Partners, L.P. (formerly Richard C. Blum & Associates, L.P.), a California limited partnership ("BLUM LP"); Richard C. Blum & Associates, Inc., a California corporation ("RCBA Inc."); RCBA Strategic Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Strategic"); RCBA GP, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("RCBA GP"); and Richard C. Blum, the Chairman and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc. and a managing member of RCBA GP (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). This Amendment No. 11 relates to the shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01, and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01, (collectively, the "Common Stock") of Waddell & Reed Financial Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The principal executive office and mailing address of the Issuer is 6300 Lamar Avenue, Overland Park, Kansas 66202. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer - --------------------------------------------- Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows: (a),(b) According to the information provided by the Issuer, there were 41,708,016 shares of the Class A Common Stock outstanding and 40,477,420 shares of the Class B Common Stock outstanding, as of April 17, 2000. Based on such information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report direct holdings and the corresponding percentage interest of total shares outstanding as follows: (i) BLUM LP and RCBA Inc. report holdings of 826,300 shares of the Class A Common Stock (1.98%) and 2,283,000 shares of the Class B Common Stock (5.64%) on behalf of the limited partnerships for which BLUM LP serves as the general partner and BLUM LP's investment advisory client accounts; (ii) Strategic reports holdings of 680,800 shares of the Class A Common Stock (1.63%) and 2,104,950 shares of the Class B Common Stock (5.20%); and (iii) Mr. Blum reports the aggregate of these shares for a total of 1,507,100 shares of the Class A Common Stock (3.61%) and 4,387,950 shares of the Class B Common Stock (10.84%). In addition, because BLUM LP has voting and investment power with respect to 123,400 shares of the Class A Common Stock and 283,950 shares of the Class B Common Stock that are legally owned by The Common Fund for the account of its Equity Fund ("The Common Fund"), those shares are reported as beneficially owned by BLUM LP. The Common Fund is principally engaged in the business of managing investments for educational institutions. The principal administrative office of The Common Fund is located at 450 Post Road East, Westport, Connecticut 06881-0909. The Common Fund disclaims membership in a group with any of the Reporting Persons, and disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares held by the Reporting Persons. Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by BLUM LP and RCBA GP. The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be members in a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 1,630,500 shares of the Class A CUSIP NO. 930059100, 930059209 SCHEDULE 13D Page 8 of 10 Common Stock (3.91% of the Class A Common Stock shares outstanding) and 4,671,900 shares of the Class B Common Stock (11.54% of the Class B Common Stock outstanding). As the sole general partner of BLUM LP, RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the securities over which BLUM LP has voting and investment power. As Chairman and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. Additionally, Mr. Blum might be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities over which RCBA GP has voting and investment power. Although Mr. Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any of the other shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc., or managing members and members of RCBA GP, is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. or RCBA GP, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein. (c) Since the last Schedule 13D filing, the Reporting Persons sold the following shares of Common Stock in the open market: Entity Trade Date Class Shares Price/Share - ------ ---------- ----- ------ ------------ BLUM LP's limited partnership 04-20-2000 Class A 2,400 26.12810 and investment advisory client 04-24-2000 Class A 815,200 27.26620 accounts (including 04-25-2000 Class A 160,300 27.16660 The Common Fund) 04-26-2000 Class A 90,900 27.00000 04-27-2000 Class A 5,900 27.00000 04-28-2000 Class A 58,200 27.00000 04-28-2000 Class A 40,900 27.37500 The limited partnership for 04-20-2000 Class A 1,600 26.12810 Which RCBA GP serves as the 04-24-2000 Class A 584,800 27.26620 general partner 04-25-2000 Class A 115,100 27.16660 04-26-2000 Class A 65,100 27.00000 04-27-2000 Class A 4,100 27.00000 04-28-2000 Class A 41,800 27.00000 04-28-2000 Class A 29,500 27.37500 (d) Not applicable. (e) As of April 24, 2000, Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Common Stock. Item 7.
