Arrival (the “Issuer”)

 

 

60a, rue des Bruyeres

L-1274 Howald

Grand Duchy of Luxembourg

 

 

This Schedule is being filed by the following persons (each a “Reporting Person” and, collectively, the “Reporting Persons”):

 

 

 

The address of the principal business office of each of the Reporting Persons is:

 

55 Hudson Yards, 47th Floor, Suite C

New York, NY  10001

 

 

 

 

Ordinary Shares, accounting par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”)

 

 

L0423Q108

 

(j)  ☐

Group, in accordance with Rule 13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(J).

 

Rows 5 through 9 and 11 of the cover pages hereto for each Reporting Person are incorporated herein by reference.

 

As of July 31, 2023, none of the Reporting Persons nor any managed account for which Antara Capital serves as investment manager (the “Managed Account”) hold any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.

 

On July 10, 2023, Antara Capital Master Fund LP (“Antara Master Fund”) and the Issuer entered into that certain Exchange Agreement (the “July Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer granted Antara Master Fund the right, from time to time and at Antara Master Fund’s option, to exchange all or any portion of Antara Master Fund’s then existing $106,909,000 principal amount of the Issuer’s 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”) in each case for (i) Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, at a rate of 36 Ordinary Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, and (ii) Issuer’s payment to Antara Master Fund of accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of Convertible Notes so-exchanged.

 

The July Exchange Agreement restricts the issuance of Ordinary Shares to Antara Master Fund in any exchange of Convertible Notes to the extent any such issuance would cause Antara Master Fund to become, directly or indirectly, a beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) of more than 14.9% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (the “Ownership Limitation Cap”).

 

Under the July Exchange Agreement, for a one-year period following each settlement of an exchange of Convertible Notes made thereunder, Antara Master Fund has agreed to waive all of its voting rights in respect of such Ordinary Shares acquired in such exchange.

 

As of July 31, 2023, the Reporting Persons beneficially own $106,909,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which are directly held by Antara Master Fund and the Managed Accounts.  Pursuant to the Indenture dated November 23, 2021 and filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Issuer’s Form 6-K filed with the SEC on November 29, 2021, the Convertible Notes are convertible into Ordinary Shares under certain conditions. The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any Ordinary Shares into which the Convertible Notes may convert pursuant to the Indenture, as none of Antara Master Fund, the Managed Account or the Reporting Persons are able to convert such Convertible Notes to acquire Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Indenture at any time within 60 days of the date hereof.  As a result of the July Exchange Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own the Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exchange of the Convertible Notes held by them, subject to the Ownership Limitation Cap.

 

Antara Capital is the investment manager of Antara Master Fund and the Managed Account. Antara GP is the general partner of Antara Capital. Mr. Gulati is the sole member of Antara GP. Antara Capital, Antara GP and Mr. Gulati may be deemed to beneficially own the securities of the Issuer held directly by Antara Master Fund and the Managed Account.

 

 

If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following:  ☐

 

 

The Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons are issuable upon the exchange pursuant to the July Exchange Agreement of the Convertible Notes directly held by Antara Master Fund and the Managed Account, for each of which Antara Capital serves as investment manager.
