This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 5, 2013 (the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the common shares (“Common Stock”), of Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd. (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 1 have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 1 amends Items 3 and 5 as set forth below. This Amendment No. 1 constitutes an “exit filing” with respect to the Reporting Persons.

 

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
   
The first sentence of Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
   
 

The Reporting Persons used approximately $102,000,000 (excluding brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to purchase the shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D.

 

 

Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
   
Paragraphs (a) – (c) and (e) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 4,759,478 shares of Common Stock, which shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each of the Manager, Manager GP and Mr. Robbins, and which represent approximately 4.37% of the outstanding Common Stock.
