Loeb, an individual, and Third Point Offshore Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands limited liability exempted company (the "Offshore Fund", and together with Mr. Loeb and the Management Company, the "Reporting Persons"). This Amendment No. 3 relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Flow International Corporation, a Washington corporation (the "Company"). The Management Company is the investment manager or adviser to a variety of funds and managed accounts (such funds and accounts, including the Offshore Fund, the "Funds"). The Funds directly own the Common Stock to which the Schedule 13D relates, and Mr. Loeb and the Management Company may be deemed to have beneficial ownership over such Common Stock by virtue of the authority granted to them by the Funds to vote and to dispose of the securities held by the Funds, including the Common Stock. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows: The Funds have expended an aggregate of approximately $25,242,821 of their own investment capital to acquire the 4,710,000 shares of Common Stock held by them. The Offshore Fund has expended an aggregate of approximately $15,971,133 of its own investment capital to acquire its 3,047,200 shares of Common Stock. The Funds effect purchases of securities primarily through margin accounts maintained for them with Bear, Stearns Securities Corp., Goldman, Sachs & Co., Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and UBS Securities LLC, which may extend margin credit to the Funds as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable Federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the firms' credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows: (a) As of the date hereof, the Management Company and Mr. Loeb beneficially own 4,710,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Shares"). The Shares represent 12.5% of the 37,586,911 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 29, 2008, as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended January 31, 2008. The percentages used herein and in the rest of this statement are calculated based upon this number of outstanding shares. The Offshore Fund directly beneficially owns 3,047,200 shares of Common Stock, representing 8.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof. (b) The Management Company and Mr. Loeb share voting and dispositive power over the 4,710,000 shares of Common Stock held directly by the Funds. The Management Company, Mr. Loeb and the Offshore Fund share voting power and dispositive power over the 3,047,200 shares of Common Stock held by the Offshore Fund. 5 (c) Schedule A hereto sets forth certain information with respect to transactions by the Funds (at the direction of the Management Company and Mr. Loeb) in Common Stock during the past 60 days. Schedule B hereto sets forth certain information with respect to transactions during the past 60 days by the Offshore Fund (at the direction of the Management Company and Mr. Loeb) in Common Stock. All of the transactions set forth on Schedule A and Schedule B were effected in the NASDAQ Global Market. Except as set forth on Schedules A and B, during the past 60 days there were no transactions in the Common Stock effected by the Reporting Persons, nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of their directors, executive officers, general partners or members. (d) Other than the Funds which directly hold the Shares, and except as set forth in this Item 5, no person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.
