This Amendment No. 5 (this "Amendment") amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed on February 6, 1998, as amended (the "Schedule"), by American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. ("TRS") with respect to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Administaff, Inc, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule. Item 2 of the Schedule is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: "This Statement is filed by (1) American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. ("TRS"), a New York corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Express Company, a New York corporation ("American Express"), and (2) American Express Foundation (the "Foundation"), a New York not for profit corporation. The principal business of American Express is providing travel related services, financial advisory services and international banking services throughout the world. The principal business of TRS is providing travel related services. The principal activity of the Foundation is to support the philanthropic efforts of American Express around the world. The address of the principal businesses and offices of American Express, TRS and the Foundation is American Express Tower, World Financial Center, New York, New York 10285. The name, residence or business address, present principal occupation or employment, and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted, and citizenship, of each executive officer and director of American Express, TRS and the Foundation are set forth in Appendix A and are incorporated herein by reference. During the last five years, to the best knowledge of TRS and the Foundation, none of American Express, TRS or the Foundation, or any of the executive officers or directors of American Express, TRS or the Foundation, has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). During the last five years, neither American Express, TRS or the Foundation nor, to the best knowledge of American Express, TRS and the Foundation, any of their respective executive officers or directors, has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction resulting in such person's being subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. TRS and the Foundation are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act, although neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by any of American Express, TRS and the Foundation that such a group exists. A copy of the Joint Filing Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 5." Items 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the Schedule are hereby amended and supplemented by adding thereto the following: On February 19, 2001, (1) the Issuer and TRS entered into a letter agreement (the "TRS Letter Agreement"), dated February 16, 2001, whereby the Issuer agreed to purchase up to 275,000 shares of Common Stock (the "TRS Purchased Shares") from TRS, at TRS's option, at a purchase price per share (the "Purchase Price") equal to ninety-nine percent (99%) of the average of the closing sales prices of a share of Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange composite transactions tape and reflected in the three star New York City edition of The Wall Street Journal over a twenty (20) trading-day period, of which the first ten trading days end on February 16, 2001 and the second ten trading days commence on the day that the Issuer releases its earnings report for the fourth quarter of 2000 and (2) the Issuer and the Foundation entered into a letter agreement (the "Foundation Letter Agreement"), dated February 16, 2001, whereby the Issuer agreed to purchase up to 525,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Foundation Purchased Shares") from the Foundation, at the option of the Foundation, at the Purchase Price. On February 15, 2001, TRS made a charitable contribution of a gift of 525,000 shares of Common Stock to the Foundation. The TRS Letter Agreement and the Foundation Letter Agreement provide that (1) the Issuer's obligation to purchase the TRS Purchased Shares or the Foundation Purchased Shares, as the case may be, is conditional upon (A) TRS's first having exercised Warrants to purchase 800,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $20 per share (subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement between the Issuer and TRS dated as of March 10, 1998) on or before March 10, 2001, (B) the Purchase Price not exceeding $30 per share and (c) TRS or the Foundation, as the case may be, notifying the Issuer that it is exercising its right to sell the TRS Purchased Shares or the Foundation Purchased Shares, as the case may be, not later than 5:00 p.m. on March 12, 2001. The TRS Letter Agreement and the Foundation Letter Agreement also provide that closing of the sale and purchase of the TRS Purchased Shares or the Foundation Purchased Shares, as the case may be, will take place on March 12, 2001 or such other day determined by TRS and the Issuer or the Foundation and the Issuer, as the case may be. The TRS Letter Agreement further provides that, if requested by TRS, the Issuer and TRS will net settle the exercise of Warrants and the sale and purchase of the TRS Purchased Shares. It is expected that TRS will use available cash on hand to finance any payment to be made to the Issuer in connection with these transactions. A copy of the TRS Letter Agreement is filed as Exhibit 6 hereto and a copy of the Foundation Letter Agreement is filed as Exhibit 7 hereto. Each of these exhibits is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary of the TRS Letter Agreement and the Foundation Letter Agreement is qualified in its entirety by such reference. Currently, TRS beneficially owns in the aggregate 4,992,282 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 15.8% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of Common Stock, and the Foundation beneficially owns 525,000 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 1.7% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of Common Stock. In the event that (1) TRS exercises Warrants to purchase 800,000 shares of Common Stock, (2) TRS sells 275,000 shares of Common Stock to the Issuer pursuant to the TRS Letter Agreement and (3) the Foundation sells 525,000 shares of Common Stock to the Issuer pursuant to the Foundation Letter Agreement, it is expected that TRS will beneficially own in the aggregate 5,517,282 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 17.5% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of Common Stock, and the Foundation will beneficially own no such shares of Common Stock. The foregoing percentages are based on the information contained in the Issuer's most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q, filed on November 14, 2000, which indicates that, as of October 31, 2000, 27,443,849 shares of Common Stock were outstanding. The share numbers and percentages in this Amendment give effect to the 2-for-1 stock split of the Common Stock effected by the Issuer as of October 16, 2000. Item 7 of the Schedule is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: The following exhibits are filed herewith: Exhibit Description ------- ----------- 1 Securities Purchase Agreement between TRS and Administaff, Inc., dated as of January 27, 1998. 2 Form of Marketing Agreement to be entered into among the Issuer, TRS, Administaff Companies, Inc. and Administaff of Texas, Inc. 3 Form of Registration Rights Agreement to be entered into between the Issuer and TRS. 4 Form of Warrant Agreement to be entered into between the Issuer and TRS. 5 Joint Filing Agreement dated as of February 19, 2001 among the Issuer, TRS and the Foundation. 6 Letter Agreement dated February 16, 2001 between the Issuer and TRS. 7 Letter Agreement dated February 16, 2001 between the Issuer and the Foundation. SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement with respect to American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. is true, complete and correct.
