Item 1.                     Security and Issuer.

 

Item 1 of the Original Schedule 13D (as defined below) is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

This Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 22, 2017 by the Reporting Persons (as defined below) relating to the ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), of BrightSphere Investment Group plc, a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales (formerly known as OM Asset Management plc) (the “Issuer”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the SEC on November 10, 2017, and Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the SEC on November 19, 2018 (together, the “Original Schedule 13D”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 5th Floor Millennium Bridge House, 2 Lambeth Hill, London EC4V 4GG. Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment No. 3, all items in the Original Schedule 13D are unchanged. Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 2.                     Identity and Background.

 

Item 2 of the Original Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented as follows:

 

(b)

 

The principal business address of HNA Capital and its directors and executive officers set forth on Schedule A to the Original Schedule 13D is 245 Park Avenue, Floor 40, New York, NY 10167.

 

The principal business address of HNA Eagle and its directors and executive officers set forth on Schedule A to the Original Schedule 13D is 245 Park Avenue, Floor 40, New York, NY 10167.

 

Item 4.                     Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Share Purchase Agreement II

 

On February 21, 2019, in connection with the impending closing of Share Purchase Agreement II, HNA Eagle and Paulson amended the Share Purchase Agreement II to enable HNA Eagle to sell to the Issuer, as part of the Issuer’s share repurchase program, up to a certain number of the Additional Shares covered by the Share Purchase Agreement II. As a result, HNA Eagle sold to Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. (“Citigroup”) 4,100,000 Ordinary Shares for $13.89 per share on February 21, 2019 and 3,886,625 Ordinary Shares for $13.95 per share on February 25, 2019, which Citigroup resold in each case immediately to the Issuer. Upon the subsequent closing of the Share Purchase Agreement II on February 25, 2019, HNA Eagle sold to Paulson the remaining 14,790,038 Additional Shares covered by the Share Purchase Agreement II for $13.95 per share.

 

As a result of the above transactions, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.

 

Item 5.                     Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

(a) and (b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 3 are incorporated herein by reference.  As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own, and thus have no voting or dispositive power over, any Ordinary Shares. To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons set forth in Schedule A attached to the Original Schedule 13D beneficially owns any Ordinary Shares.

 

(c) Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 3, no Reporting Person, or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person identified on Schedule A hereto, has effected any transaction in the Ordinary Shares in the 60 days preceding the date hereof.

 

(d) Not applicable.

 

(e) Following the closing of Share Purchase Agreement II on February 25, 2019, in which HNA Eagle sold all remaining Ordinary Shares it owned in the Issuer, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own at least 5% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares.
