This Amendment No. 9 (Amendment No. 9) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D filed by Gaylon M. Lawrence, Jr. (the Reporting Person) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 5, 2019 (Amendment No. 8), which amended and supplemented earlier filings on February 7, 2019 (Amendment No. 7), November 9, 2018 (Amendment No. 6), February 8, 2018 (Amendment No. 5), October 17, 2017 (Amendment No. 4), October 4, 2017 (Amendment No. 3), September 13, 2017 (Amendment No. 2), August 25, 2017 (Amendment No. 1) and August 11, 2017 (the Original Schedule 13D, and together with Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4, Amendment No. 5, Amendment No. 6, Amendment No. 7, Amendment No. 8 and this Amendment No. 9, the Schedule 13D) with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share (Common Stock) of CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc. (the Issuer). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 9 shall have the meanings set forth in the Original Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 9 amends Items 4 and 5(a), as set forth below.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

The second paragraph of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in the following paragraph:

On November 6, 2018, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (the Board) issued a letter, in which the Board determined not to disapprove the Reporting Persons Interagency Notice of Change in Control (the Notice) for the Reporting Person to acquire up to 15% of the Issuers Common Stock. Under the Boards policies, the consummation period to acquire up to 15% of the Issuers Common Stock cannot be extended beyond one calendar year from the date the Notice was acted on by the Board. As a result, the consummation period under the Notice has expired, and if the Reporting Person seeks to acquire in excess of 9.99% of the Issuers Common Stock, the Reporting Person will be required to file a new Interagency Notice of Change in Control with the Board. The Reporting Person does not presently intend to file a new Interagency Notice of Change in Control with the Board. Depending on overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Person, and the availability of the Issuers securities at prices that would make the purchase or sale of the Issuers securities desirable, the Reporting Person may acquire additional securities of the Issuer (up to 9.99% of the Issuers Common Stock). The Reporting Person may also retain or sell all or a portion of the securities then held, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby further amended by amending and restating in its entirety as follows the paragraph that was added in Amendment No. 5 after the third paragraph of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D and which was later amended and restated in Amendment No. 6:

On October 31, 2017, the Issuer announced that it filed a lawsuit (the Litigation) against the Reporting Person in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee alleging violations of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the federal Change in Bank Control Act, and Tennessee Code Section 45-2-107. The Reporting Person opposes the Litigation, vigorously denies that he violated any laws, and expressly maintains he complied with his legal obligations. On September 24, 2018, the court entered an order partially granting and partially denying Reporting Persons motion to dismiss. The court dismissed Issuers claim under the Change in Bank Control Act as well as its claim for monetary damages under Section 13(d). The court denied Reporting Persons motion to dismiss with respect to Issuers claims for injunctive relief under Section 13(d) and under Tennessee Code Section 45-2-107. On November 19, 2019, the Reporting Person filed a motion for partial summary judgment seeking dismissal of the Issuers claims under Tennessee Code Section 45-2-107. The Reporting Person continues to vigorously defend those claims. The Issuer and the Reporting Person have been conducting discovery, which is ongoing.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

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

 

  (a)

As of the filing date of this Amendment No. 9, the Reporting Person is the beneficial owner and has sole voting and dispositive power over 1,156,675 shares of Common Stock which represents approximately 6.3% of the 18,357,921 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of October 31, 2019, as reported in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, filed with the SEC on November 6, 2019.
