Item 1. Security and Issuer

 

This Amendment No. 5 (this “Amendment No. 5”) amends the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18, 2002 by the Reporting Persons, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 17, 2003, Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 21, 2003, Amendment No. 3 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 21, 2004, and Amendment No. 4 thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 18, 2005 (the “Amendment No. 4”, and such Statement as so amended, being the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 5 is filed with respect to the ordinary shares, par value 20 Russian Roubles per ordinary share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods OJSC, a joint stock company organized under the laws of the Russian Federation (the “Issuer”), having its principal executive offices at 16/15 Yauzsky Boulevard, Moscow 109028, Russian Federation. The Ordinary Shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange through an American Depositary Share facility in which each American Depositary Share of the Issuer (the “American Depositary Shares” or “ADSs”) represents one Ordinary Share. Each reference in this Statement to Ordinary Shares refers also (where applicable) to the corresponding American Depositary Shares representing such Ordinary Shares. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

The source of the approximately USD 53.1 million used to purchase the 1,515,000 Ordinary Shares beneficially acquired by the Reporting Persons since the date of Amendment No. 4 was the ordinary working capital of Groupe Danone supplied to Blanrim through Compagnie Gervais Danone.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

The second paragraph of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following language:

 

The purpose of the acquisition by Blanrim of the Ordinary Shares is to reinforce its investment on behalf of Groupe Danone, in the Issuer, in relation to promising growth prospects in the Russian dairy market. The Reporting Persons may purchase additional shares in the future, depending on market conditions, as well as take such further actions with respect to the investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, but not limited to, seeking Board representation, making proposals to the Issuer with respect to changes to the capitalization, ownership structure or operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional ADSs or Ordinary Shares, selling some or all of their ADSs or Ordinary Shares, and engaging in any other transactions with respect to the ADSs or Ordinary Shares. The Reporting Persons do not expect to amend the Schedule 13D with respect to any such potential actions, unless and until such time as such disclosure may be required by applicable law.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Items (a)-(c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated in their entirety by inserting the following language:

 

(a)-(b) Blanrim beneficially owns 5,675,300 Ordinary Shares (representing 12.90% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares based on information contained in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 16, 2006). The Ordinary Shares are indirectly beneficially owned by Groupe Danone and Compagnie Gervais Danone through their direct and indirect ownership of Blanrim. The power to vote and dispose the Ordinary Shares is shared between the Reporting Persons.

 

(c) On November 10, 2006, Blanrim purchased 1,320,000 Ordinary Shares in a public offering by certain shareholders of the Issuer. The price per share for such purchases was USD 37.50. To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, with the exception of the foregoing purchases, none of the Reporting Persons, nor any person referred to in Exhibit A beneficially owns, or has acquired or disposed of any Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days.
