ITEM 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:

The description of the Proposed Transaction set forth in Item 4 below is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3. It is anticipated that funding for the consideration payable pursuant to the Proposed Transaction will be obtained through available cash on hand, borrowings, or a combination thereof.

ITEM 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:

As previously disclosed, on May 26, 2023, Sun delivered a letter (the “May 26 Letter”) to the Board of Directors of the Issuer that contained a non-binding indication of interest to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares, other than any shares held by Sun or its affiliates, for a purchase price per share of $38.00 in cash (the “Proposed Transaction”). The foregoing summary of the May 26 Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the May 26 Letter, a copy of which was attached to Amendment No. 28 as Exhibit 99.57.

Following delivery of the May 26 Letter, Sun engaged in multiple rounds of price negotiations with a special committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Special Committee”) regarding the terms of the Proposed Transaction. Such negotiations ultimately resulted in Sun communicating to the members of the Special Committee updated terms of the Proposed Transaction, pursuant to which Sun has proposed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Ordinary Shares, other than any shares held by Sun or its affiliates, for a purchase price per share of $43.00 in cash (the “Revised Proposal”). On December 10, 2023, the Special Committee confirmed that it agreed in principle with the Revised Proposal and that it has agreed to negotiate definitive agreements. Negotiations regarding definitive terms and agreements for a Proposed Transaction are ongoing, and no assurances can be given that a definitive agreement will be reached, as to the terms of any such definitive agreement, or that the Proposed Transaction will be consummated, and the Revised Proposal remains subject to further required corporate approvals, execution of definitive documentation and satisfaction of other customary conditions. The Special Committee is comprised solely of independent directors and the required corporate approvals with respect to the Proposed Transaction shall include the affirmative approval of the shareholders holding a majority of all the votes of shareholders, excluding Sun, its affiliates and any other shareholders that have a personal interest in the approval of the transaction, who participate in the vote.

The Proposed Transaction could result in one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a)−(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including the acquisition of additional securities of the Issuer, a merger or other extraordinary transaction involving the Issuer, a change to the present capitalization of the Issuer, the delisting of the Issuer’s securities from the New York Stock Exchange, and a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act. The Reporting Persons may at any time, or from time to time, amend, pursue, or choose not to pursue the Proposed Transaction; change the terms of the Proposed Transaction, including the price, conditions, or scope of the transaction; take any appropriate action in or out of the ordinary course of business to facilitate or increase the likelihood of consummation of the Proposed Transaction.

The Reporting Persons do not intend to provide additional disclosures regarding the Proposed Transaction unless and until a definitive agreement has been reached, or unless disclosure is otherwise required under applicable securities laws. Completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to, among other matters, the negotiation of a definitive agreement and satisfaction of the conditions negotiated therein, including the approval of the transaction by shareholders of the Issuer. There is no certainty as to the timetable for the potential execution of any definitive agreement. Furthermore, no legally binding obligation of the Reporting Persons to participate in the Proposed Transaction will exist unless and until mutually acceptable definitive documentation has been executed and delivered with respect thereto.

ITEM 6.

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

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by incorporating by reference in its entirety the description of the Proposed Transaction and the other matters set forth in Item 4 above.

SIGNATURE

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
