SCHEDULE 13D

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer

 

Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with the following:

 

This statement constitutes Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D relating to the common shares, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"), issued by AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. (the "Issuer"), and hereby amends the Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 17, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 1, filed with the SEC on June 1, 2018, Amendment No. 2, filed with the SEC on June 4, 2018, and Amendment No. 3, filed with the SEC on June 7, 2018, to furnish the additional information set forth herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

  

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the following:

 

As previously disclosed by the Issuer, on March 1, 2018, the Issuer entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Evergreen Parent, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Parent”) and Evergreen Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”).

 

On November 29, 2018, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated, including the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent following the merger (the “Merger”).

 

As a result of the Merger Agreement, each issued and outstanding Share held by the Reporting Persons was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $14.75 in cash, without interest. As a result of the foregoing and as of the effective time of the Merger, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own any Shares.

(b) As of the date hereof and as a result of the Merger, the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own any Shares.

 

(c) Except as described in Item 4 above, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions with respect to the Shares within the past 60 days.

 

(d) Not applicable.

 

(e) As of the date hereof and as a result of the Merger, the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own any Shares.

 

Item 6. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
