CUSIP NO. 136635109

 

(d)No Reporting Person has, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e)No Reporting Person has, during the last five years, been 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.

(f)Mr. Cederholm is a citizen of each of Sweden and France. Mr. Freeman is a citizen of the United States of America.

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The securities of the Issuer purchased by Lion Point were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business). The aggregate purchase price of the 3,496,105 Shares purchased by Lion Point is approximately $49,196,099, including brokerage commissions. Lion Point has also purchased $2,350,000 in principal amount of the Issuer’s 4.25% convertible senior notes (the “Notes”), which have a conversion price of approximately $45.00 per Share and mature on February 15, 2019.

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons (collectively, “Lion Point”) purchased the Shares based on Lion Point’s belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to Lion Point, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, Lion Point may endeavor to increase or decrease its position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as Lion Point may deem advisable.

Given the Issuer’s high quality assets as well as the outstanding $18.47 per Share acquisition proposal (the “Privatization Proposal”) made by Shawn (Xiaohua) Qu, the Issuer’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (the “Chairman”), Lion Point continues to believe that the Shares are significantly undervalued and trade at a steep discount to their intrinsic value. Lion Point also believes that there are significant opportunities within the control of the Issuer’s management and Board of Directors (the “Board”) to unlock shareholder value, including operational expense reductions, share repurchases, improved communication with public investors and strategic transactions, including a spin-off or separate listing of the Issuer’s energy business or a sale of the Issuer as a whole or in parts.

Following the public announcement of the Privatization Proposal, Lion Point had conversations with several large financial and strategic institutions that expressed an interest in potentially providing financing for the Privatization Proposal, and Lion Point subsequently submitted a preliminary term sheet, subject to due diligence and certain other conditions being met, including the participation of certain third party financing sources, to the Chairman offering to provide a 5-year financing package of up to $250 million to i) backstop the sources of funds arranged by the Chairman for the Privatization Proposal and ii) to make additional funds available to increase the per Share price of the Privatization Proposal, if necessary. Lion Point has also indicated to the Chairman that, based on its discussions with certain financial institutions and strategic investors, it may be able to significantly increase the size of the offered financing subject to governance, diligence and other conditions.

9

CUSIP NO. 136635109

Lion Point has engaged and intends to continue to engage in discussions with the Issuer’s management and Board, including the Special Committee of the Board formed to consider the Privatization Proposal, and its advisors regarding Lion Point’s views on the Issuer and opportunities to enhance shareholder value, the composition of the Board and management, operational expense reductions, share repurchases, improved communication with public investors and strategic transactions, including a spin-off or separate listing of the Issuer’s energy business or a sale of the Issuer as a whole or in parts.

Lion Point does not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein. Lion Point intends to review its investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, Lion Point may in the future take such actions with respect to its investment in the Issuer as it deems appropriate including, without limitation, engaging in additional communications with management and the Board of the Issuer, engaging in further discussions with others about the Issuer and Lion Point’s investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning operational expense reductions, share repurchases, improved communication with public investors and strategic transactions, including a spin-off or separate listing of the Issuer’s energy business or a sale of the Issuer as a whole or in parts, Board structure (including Board composition), purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of its Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, or changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4. 

Item 5.Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 58,826,343 Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2018, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2018.
