Attached as Appendix A to Item 2 is information concerning the executive officers, managers and directors of Principal I GP, Principal III GP, Management Holdings GP and other entities as to which such information is required to be disclosed in response to Item 2 and General Instruction C to Schedule 13D.

 

On August 23, 2016, Management VI and Management VII and two other Apollo affiliated investment advisers (collectively, the “Apollo Advisers”), without admitting or denying the Commission’s findings of a violation of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, consented to the entry of an order by the Commission instituting administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings and imposing a cease-and-desist order as well as civil monetary penalties in the amount of $12,500,000.  With respect to conduct participated in by Management VI and Management VII, the Commission found that the Apollo Advisers had failed to disclose to investors considering investments in certain private equity funds that they would accelerate monitoring fees charged to portfolio companies when the portfolio company was sold and the monitoring arrangement terminated.  In addition, the Commission found that the Apollo Advisers failed to reasonably supervise a former senior partner who had charged personal items and services to Apollo-advised funds, and failed to adopt and implement written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Advisers Act arising from the failure to disclose in advance the acceleration of monitoring fees as well as the improper reimbursement of

 

52



 

expenses. As a result of this conduct, the Commission found that the Apollo Advisers violated Sections 203(e)(3), 206(2) and 206(4) of the Advisers Act and Rules 206(4)-7 and 206(4)-8 adopted thereunder.

 

Other than as discussed above, none of the Reporting Persons nor any of the persons or entities referred to in Appendix A to Item 2 has, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or been 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.

 

Item 3.         Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 4.         Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 5.         Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

On September 30, 2016, AAA Associates, Co-Invest VI (B), AAA Investments (Co-Invest VI), L.P. (“Co-Invest VI”), Alternative Assets, AALC, ALRe and NCL Athene entered into a Master AAA-NCL Restructuring Agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”) in order to restructure the indirect interest of the Athene entities in the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer held indirectly through Co-Invest VI (B) (the “Restructuring”).  Pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement, Co-Invest VI (B) contributed the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer it held of record to the newly formed NCL Athene in exchange for Class A and Class B membership interests in NCL Athene.  Co-Invest VI (B) in turn distributed the Class A and Class B membership interests in NCL Athene to Co-Invest VI, which distributed the Class A membership interests to ALRe and AALC according to their respective Co-Invest VI capital accounts, and distributed all of the Class B membership interests to AAA Associates.  Following the consummation of the transactions under the Restructuring Agreement, NCL Athene is the record holder of 3,786,094 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, and Co-Invest VI (B) no longer holds any Ordinary Shares and will no longer be included as a Reporting Person.  Also on September 30, 2016, NCL Athene signed a joinder and became a party to the Shareholders Agreement, as amended.

 

Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, as amended on November 19, 2014 by Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Shareholders’ Agreement (“Amendment 1 to Shareholders Agreement”), the Apollo Holders may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 66,831,923 Ordinary Shares, which includes the Ordinary Shares held of record by the Apollo Holders, and the Ordinary Shares held by the Genting HK Entities and the TPG Entities, respectively, and represents approximately 29.4% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares.

 

The Ordinary Shares reported as beneficially owned by each Reporting Person includes only those shares over which such person may be deemed to have voting or dispositive power.  Only Management Holdings and Management Holdings GP report beneficial ownership of all of the Ordinary Shares owned of record by the Apollo Holders.  Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of all of the Ordinary Shares included in this report, and the filing of this report shall not be construed as an admission that any such person or entity is the beneficial owner of any such securities for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.

 

(a)  See also the information contained on the cover pages of this Amendment No. 11 to Schedule 13D which is incorporated herein by reference.  The percentage of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by

 

53



 

each Reporting Person is based on 227,114,541 outstanding Ordinary Shares as of August 3, 2016, as reported by the Issuer in the Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 9, 2016.

 

(b)                                 See the information contained on the cover pages of this Amendment No. 11 to Schedule 13D, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

(c)                                  Other than as discussed above, there have been no reportable transactions with respect to the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer within the last 60 days by the Reporting Persons.

 

(d)                                 Not applicable.

 

(e)                                  Not applicable.

 

Item 6.         Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Under the NCL Athene Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2016, the Class A members carry the right to manage the investments of NCL Athene.  The Class B member has no right to participate in the management and control of the Company and no right to vote on or consent to any matter relating to the Company.  The Class A interests, however, must obtain the consent of the Class B member for any management decisions that would be inconsistent with the Amended and Restated Co-investment Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2009, to which Co-Invest VI is a party.

 

The summary of the NCL Athene Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement as described in this Item 6 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, which is attached to this Statement on Schedule 13D as Exhibit 2, and is incorporated herein by reference.

7.1                               Accounting and Reports.

(b)                                 Beginning with the Fiscal Year ending on December 31, 2016, the Class A Members shall prepare or cause to be prepared financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles on an annual basis.  The annual financial statements shall be delivered to the Class B Member together with a statement of the accounting policies used in their preparation, such information as may be required by applicable laws and regulations and such other information as the Class A Members deem appropriate.  The annual financial statements shall be audited by an independent accounting firm of international standing and sent to the Class B Member within [60] days after the end of each Fiscal Year.

 

(c)                                  As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each month, the Company shall send to each Member a statement setting forth the net asset value of such Member’s Capital Account as of the end of such month.

 

(d)                                 The Class B Member shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and send to each Member on an annual basis such information as is required for United States federal income tax reporting purposes, including United States Internal Revenue Service Schedule K-1 and information relating to the passive foreign investment company status of a foreign corporate subsidiary and, where reasonably possible, any portfolio company.

 

(e)                                  Where required to do so by the applicable law or taxing authority of any jurisdiction, the Company may withhold tax from any income or capital gain of the Company and, in that event, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such information as is necessary to enable the Members to obtain any refund of any such withholding taxes (to the extent that the Company can do so without unreasonable effort or expense). Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Member pursuant to this Section 7.1(e) shall be treated as having been distributed to such Member as an advance against the next distributions that would otherwise be made to such Member, and such amount shall be satisfied by offset from such next distributions.  Each Member will furnish the Company with such information as may reasonably be requested by the Company from time to time to determine whether withholding is required.

 

7.2                               Books and Records.

 

The Class A Members shall keep books and records pertaining to the Company’s affairs showing all of its assets and liabilities, receipts and disbursements, realized income, gains and losses, Members’ Capital Accounts, Members’ NCL Book Accounts and all transactions entered into by the Company.  The Class A Members shall afford to the Class B Member and the Company’s independent auditors reasonable access to such documents during customary business hours and shall permit them to make copies thereof or extracts therefrom at the expense of the Company.
