Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D
This Amendment No. 4 (this Amendment) to the Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on May 2, 2017 (the Initial Filing), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on May 23, 2017, Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on December 21, 2017 and Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on February 15, 2018 (collectively, the Schedule 13D) is being filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons, as defined in the Schedule 13D and corresponding to the signatories hereto, relating to the ordinary shares, no par value (the Ordinary Shares) of Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft (Deutsche Bank) held for the account of C-QUADRAT Special Situations Dedicated Fund. Any capitalized terms used but otherwise undefined in this Amendment shall have the meaning given such term in the Schedule 13D.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
The first sentence of Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated to read as follows:
The aggregate purchase price for the Ordinary Shares reported in Item 5 was approximately 2,775,679,249, including brokerage commissions, financing costs and other broker expenses.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) C-QUADRAT is the direct beneficial owner of 164,245,135 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 7.9% of Deutsche Banks outstanding Ordinary Shares. In addition, each Reporting Person other than C-QUADRAT may be deemed the indirect beneficial owner of such Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 7.9% of Deutsche Banks outstanding Ordinary Shares. The calculated percentages are based on the 2,066,402,041 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2017 as reported on the cover page of the Annual Report on Form 20-F filed by Deutsche Bank with the SEC on March 16, 2018.
To the best of the Reporting Persons knowledge, none of the persons listed in Annex A holds any Ordinary Shares (other than as described in this Item 5). Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents will be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is the beneficial owner of any shares of Deutsche Bank for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purposes, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
(b) The Trusts and Cubic have shared beneficial ownership through ownership of C-QIAG, and the Trusts and each of their control persons, Mr. Rieß and Mr. Schütz, have shared control over Cubic. Each other Reporting Person possesses sole beneficial ownership over the Ordinary Shares. Each of the above has the shared or sole authority to direct the voting and disposition of 164,245,135 Ordinary Shares held by C-QUADRAT. As described in Item 5(d) below, BL Capital Holdings Limited (BVI) (BL Capital) and HNA Innovation Finance Group Co. Limited (HNA) are investors in C-QUADRAT, and C-QUADRAT permits withdrawals, which may be settled in-cash or in-kind.
