This Amendment No. 9 to Statement on Schedule 13D (the “Amendment No. 9”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D, originally filed on April 20, 2007, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 to Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on August 13, 2007, and as further amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 2 to Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on November 7,
2007, and as further amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 3 to Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on November 20, 2007, and as further amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 4 to Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on December 18, 2007, and as further amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 5 to Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on February 20, 2008, and as further amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 6 to Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on September 5, 2008, and as further
amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 7 on Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on September 22, 2008, and as further amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 8 on Statement on Schedule 13D, filed on September 24, 2008 (the “Amendment No. 8”) and relates to the common shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Shares”) of Harris Interactive Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), with its principal executive offices located at 60 Corporate
Woods, Rochester, NY 14623.
Item 2. Identity and Background
This Amendment No. 9 is being filed for the sole purpose of reflecting that Financière de Sainte-Marine (formerly Bolloré Médias Investissements) (“FdSM”) is now the direct holder of the 8,036,025 Common Shares of the Issuer’s stock as a result of an internal restructuring plan undertaken by certain entities controlled by Vincent Bolloré. Pursuant
to that internal restructuring plan, on December 31, 2008, a predecessor entity (also named Financière de Sainte-Marine) merged with and into Bolloré Médias Investissements, a French
société par actions simplifiée
indirectly controlled by Mr. Bolloré, which, in connection with the merger, changed its name to Financière de Sainte-Marine.
ITEM 5. INTER
EST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Item 5(a)-(b) is hereby replaced and superseded in its entirety by the following
description:
(a) See items 11 and 13 of the cover pages to this Amendment No. 9 for the aggregate number and percentage of Common Shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons.
FdSM is the holder of record of 8,036,025 Common Shares, representing 14.98% of the Issuer’s stock (an estimated 14.98% of voting rights). Vincent Bolloré indirectly controls FdSM through his indirect controlling interests in a series of parent companies of FdSM, including Financière de l’Odet, Bolloré S.A., Plantations des Terres Rouges and Compagnie du
Cambodge, all French companies, except for Plantations des Terres Rouges, which is a Luxembourg company. Thus, Vincent Bolloré may be considered to have beneficial ownership of the entire 8,036,025 Common Shares owned of record by FdSM, representing 14.98% of the Issuer’s stock (an estimated 14.98% of voting rights).
(b) See items 7 through 10 of the cover pages to this Amendment No. 9 for the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person as to which there is the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition.
FdSM has both voting and dispositive power with respect to the Common Shares indicated as owned of record by it in Item 5(a). However, Vincent Bolloré, who controls FdSM through his indirect controlling interests in the parent companies of FdSM, including those as specified in paragraph (a) above, directs the investments and voting of each of them. Thus, Mr. Bolloré shares
voting and dispositive power with respect to the Common Shares owned by FdSM.
