The information contained in Items 5 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

 

Depending on market conditions and other factors, and subject to any restrictions described in Items 5 and 6 or contained in the agreements attached as Exhibits hereto or as previously filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons or their respective subsidiaries may purchase additional shares of Common Stock in the open market or in private transactions.  Alternatively, depending on market conditions and other factors, and subject to any restrictions described in Items 5 or 6 or contained in the agreements attached as Exhibits hereto or previously filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons or their respective subsidiaries may sell all or some of their shares of Common Stock.

 

Except as described in Items 5 and 6 or contained in the agreements attached as Exhibits hereto or previously filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D, neither any Reporting Person nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of their respective directors or officers has plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions set forth in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

The information contained in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

 

The information contained in Item 5 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

 

As previously reported, the Governance Agreement grants Liberty a preemptive right with respect to issuances of the Company’s capital stock, subject to certain limitations, to maintain the percentage ownership in the Company that Liberty had immediately prior to such issuances.  In accordance with the foregoing, on April 7, 2003 Liberty exercised its preemptive right to acquire shares of Common Stock arising as a result of the issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with the Company’s prior acquisition of the outstanding shares of Ticketmaster that it did not previously own.  Pursuant to such exercise of its preemptive right, Liberty acquired from the Company 11,217,934 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $220,342,655.35, or $19.64 per share.  Pursuant to the terms of the preemptive rights provision, the purchase price was based on the price of the shares of Common Stock at the time of signing of the Ticketmaster merger agreement.  The aggregate amount due the Company from Liberty in connection with the foregoing purchase was drawn from the working capital of Liberty.

 

As a result of the consummation of Liberty’s purchase of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of its preemptive right, the members of the Reporting Group beneficially own 170,583,848 (assuming the exercise of options to purchase 47,120,888 shares of Common Stock which are currently exercisable by Mr. Diller and the exercise of warrants to purchase 28,280,641 shares of Common Stock which are currently exercisable by Vivendi Universal) shares of Common Stock and 64,629,996 shares of Class B Common Stock.  These shares constitute 32.5% of the outstanding Common Stock and 100% of the outstanding Class B Common Stock.  Assuming the conversion of all of the Reporting Group’s Class B shares into Common Stock, the Reporting Group would beneficially own 39.9% of the outstanding Common Stock (calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3).  Because each share of Class B Common Stock generally is entitled to ten votes per share and each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own equity securities of the Company representing approximately 68.2% of the voting power of the Company.  The foregoing beneficial ownership figures exclude shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Diane Von Furstenberg, Mr. Diller’s spouse, as to which Mr. Diller disclaims beneficial ownership.  Mr. Diller continues to hold an irrevocable proxy granted by each of Universal and Liberty, pursuant to which Mr. Diller has the right to vote the Company’s securities held by Universal, Liberty and their respective affiliates.

 

Except as set forth or incorporated by reference herein, no Reporting Person or, to the best knowledge of each Reporting Person, any executive officer or director of such Reporting Person has effected any transaction in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.

 

Item 6.

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

 

The information contained in Item 5 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

 

The information contained in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

 

On March 31, 2003, Vivendi Universal, Universal and Mr. Diller entered into a letter agreement amending Section 3.3(a) of the Stockholders Agreement to provide for the continuation of Mr. Diller’s proxy over shares of Common Stock owned by the Vivendi Stockholders Group (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement) under certain circumstances.  A copy of the letter agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto, is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 7.

Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

 

The information contained in Item 7 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

 

53.           Letter Agreement, dated March 31, 2003, from Vivendi Universal, S.A. and Universal Studios, Inc. to Barry Diller.
