This Schedule 13D/A constitutes (i) Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D of Fifth Street Asset Management Inc. originally filed on February 24, 2016, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on April 8, 2016 and Amendment No. 2 filed on August 16, 2016, (ii) Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D of Fifth Street Holdings L.P. originally filed on February 24, 2016, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on August 16, 2016 and (iii) Amendment No. 10 to the Schedule 13D of Leonard M. Tannenbaum originally filed on March 21, 2014, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on March 24, 2014, Amendment No. 2 filed on August 26, 2014, Amendment No. 3 filed on December 22, 2014, Amendment No. 4 filed on May 26, 2015, Amendment No. 5 filed on December 2, 2015, Amendment No. 6 filed on December 31, 2015, Amendment No. 7 filed on February 3, 2016, Amendment No. 8 filed on February 24, 2016 and Amendment No. 9 filed on August 16, 2016.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 is amended and restated as follows:

This Schedule 13D/A is being filed by (i) Leonard M. Tannenbaum, a citizen of the United States of America and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fifth Street Asset Management Inc., a Delaware corporation (“FSAM”), (ii) FSAM and (iii) Fifth Street Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“FSH”).

FSAM and FSH are asset management firms with their principal business address at 777 West Putnam Avenue, 3rd Floor, Greenwich, CT 06830. FSAM is the general partner of FSH. Mr. Tannenbaum’s business address is 777 West Putnam Avenue, 3rd Floor, Greenwich, CT 06830. The name, citizenship, present principal occupation or employment and business address of each director and executive officer of FSAM are set forth in Schedule A , which replaces the corresponding schedule attached to the Ninth Amended Schedule 13D on August 16, 2016.

During the last five years, none of Mr. Tannenbaum, FSAM, FSH, or any person set forth in Schedule A has been (a) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which proceeding Mr. Tannenbaum, FSAM, FSH, or any person set forth in Schedule A , as the case may be, is or was 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.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is amended by adding the following:

The acquisitions by Mr. Tannenbaum of Shares reported in Item 5(c) were made using Mr. Tannenbaum’s personal funds. Mr. Tannenbaum holds some of the acquired Shares in a margin account pursuant to a brokerage agreement. Since other securities are held in the margin account, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin account borrowings used to purchase the acquired Shares. The positions held in the margin account are pledged as collateral for the repayment of credit for the account, and the collateral can be called upon default.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is amended and restated as follows:

(a)-(b) The information set forth in rows 7 through 13 of the cover page to this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference. The percentage set forth in row 13 is based on 29,466,768 outstanding Shares as of August 9, 2016, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed on August 9, 2016. Of the Shares over which Mr. Tannenbaum has sole voting and dispositive power, (i) 4,451,919.514 Shares are held by him directly; (ii) 95,634 Shares are held by the Leonard M. Tannenbaum Foundation (the “Foundation”), for which Mr. Tannenbaum serves as the President; and (iii) 10,875 Shares are held as custodian for his three children (in the amounts of 7,500 Shares, 2,000 Shares and 1,375 Shares). The 154,728 Shares over which Mr. Tannenbaum has shared voting and dispositive power are directly held by FSH. The 154,728 Shares over which FSAM has shared voting and dispositive power are directly held by FSH.

(c) Schedule B sets forth all transactions with respect to Shares by Mr. Tannenbaum since the filing of the Ninth Amended Schedule 13D on August 16, 2016. Neither FSAM nor FSH have any transactions with respect to the Shares in the last 60 days.

(d) FSAM has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, 154,728 Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Tannenbaum and FSAM. The Foundation has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, 95,634 Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Tannenbaum. Mr. Tannenbaum’s children have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, 10,875 Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Tannenbaum.
