This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 4”) amends and restates, where indicated, the statement on Schedule 13D relating to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Vail Resorts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), filed by Ralcorp Holdings, Inc., a Missouri corporation, formerly known as New Ralcorp Holdings, Inc., (“Ralcorp”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 1997, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed by Ralcorp with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 18, 2005, Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by Ralcorp and RH Financial Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 2, 2005 and Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed by Ralcorp and RH Financial Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 30, 2005 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment No. 4 is being made to reflect the entry into certain agreements regarding the Common Stock of the Issuer as more fully described in Item 6 below. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Amendment No. 4 does not modify any of the information previously reported by Ralcorp in the Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

According to the Issuer’s most recent publicly filed documents, as of March 6, 2006, the Issuer has issued and outstanding the following capital stock: no shares of Class A Common Stock and 37,983,854 shares of Common Stock. Based on this information, the Reporting Persons owns 7,454,406 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 19.6% of the outstanding Common Stock, subject to the forward sale agreements and pledge agreements described in Item 6 below. Messrs. Granneman, Micheletto and Stiritz each beneficially own less than 1% of the outstanding Common Stock. Included in the shares beneficially owned by Messrs. Micheletto and Stiritz, are 26,000 and 22,500 shares of Common Stock, respectively, that may be acquired on or within 60 days of March 31, 2006 through the exercise of stock options. Each of the Reporting Persons, Messrs. Granneman, Micheletto and Mr. Stiritz has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares beneficially owned by such person, subject to the forward sale agreements and pledge agreements described in Item 6 below. Except as set forth in Appendix 1, neither the Reporting Persons nor, to the Reporting Person’s knowledge, any director or executive officer of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns or has a right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any other shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. During the past sixty days there have not been any transactions in the Common Stock of the Issuer by the Reporting Persons or, to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, any director or executive officer of the Reporting Persons, other than the March 2006 forward sale transaction described in Item 6 below and on March 21, 2006, RH Financial Corporation sold 100,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock in open market transactions at an average per share price of $37.9205.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

Shareholder Agreement and Termination Agreement

 

Since January 3, 1997, the Issuer, Apollo Ski Partners, L.P. (“Apollo”) and Ralcorp have been party to a shareholder agreement (the “Shareholder Agreement”) pursuant to which Apollo and Ralcorp were subject to voting agreements and had certain registration rights. The Shareholder Agreement was amended as of November 1, 1999. The Issuer, Apollo and Ralcorp entered into a Termination Agreement (the “Termination

 

AMENDMENT NO. 4 TO SCHEDULE 13D

 

CUSIP No. 91879Q109

Page 5 of 8

 

 

Agreement”) on October 5, 2004 terminating the Shareholder Agreement, except for certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the Common Stock owned by Ralcorp and the indemnification provisions contained in the Shareholder Agreement which survive as described below.

 

Under the terminated Shareholder Agreement, the parties had agreed to cause the Board of Directors of the Issuer to consist of no more than twenty directors, with Ralcorp having the ability to nominate two directors for so long as it owned at least ten percent of the Issuer’s outstanding voting securities. Messrs. Micheletto and Stiritz were Ralcorp’s two nominees for directors. Pursuant to the terminated Shareholder Agreement, Apollo had agreed to vote in favor of the election of the two directors nominated by Ralcorp.

 

The terminated Shareholder Agreement subjected Ralcorp to a voting agreement with respect to actions taken by the Issuer’s Board of Directors. Among other things, Ralcorp agreed to vote (i) “for” all the nominees recommended by the Board of Directors, (ii) in accordance with the Board of Directors on all shareholder proposals and (iii) in the same proportion as all other shareholders (i.e., “for,” “against” and “abstain”) on all other matters, except that Ralcorp had full discretion on extraordinary events such as mergers or consolidations, sales of assets, creation of new stock with voting rights and changes in the Issuer’s charter or bylaws.

 

Under the terms of the terminated Shareholder Agreement, Ralcorp had agreed to certain restrictions on the resale of its shares of Common Stock. Ralcorp had agreed not to transfer or sell its shares of Common Stock without the prior approval of a majority of the Board of Directors, other than (i) to affiliates or Ralcorp stockholders, or (ii) pursuant to a demand or piggyback registration as allowed under the Shareholder Agreement or (iii) to a transferee, provided the transferee would not own more than ten percent of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer and agreed to be bound by the Shareholder Agreement.

 

Under the continuing provisions, Ralcorp has the right to effect one demand registration per twelve month period; provided that no demand registration may be made if the shares of Common Stock constitute less than 6% of the outstanding voting securities of the Issuer (or, if less, all of the shares of Common Stock owned by Ralcorp) or the demand is made within six months after the effective date of any other registration of voting securities of the Issuer under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”). In addition, Ralcorp has the right to include the shares of Common Stock owned by it in any registration statement (other than the registration of securities in connection with a merger, acquisition, exchange offer or employee benefit plan maintained by the Issuer or its affiliates), filed by the Issuer or any other person, subject to cutback by the managing underwriter in certain specified circumstances. Such registration rights will survive until the later of:

 

 

the 18-month anniversary of the Termination Agreement; or

 

the date upon which a registration statement demanded by Ralcorp prior to the 18-month anniversary of the Termination Agreement is declared effective.

 

In addition, the Issuer, Ralcorp and Apollo have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that may be required to be made in that respect.

 

The foregoing description of the Shareholder Agreement and Termination Agreement is qualified in its entirety by full text of such agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference and are filed as exhibits hereto.

The Floor Price and the Cap Prices are subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, spinoffs, mergers and similar events affecting the Issuer’s Common Stock, depending on the nature of the transaction.

Each of the transactions is subject to early settlement and termination under certain circumstances.
