This Amendment No. 5 to a Statement on Schedule 13D filed on October 5, 1999 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), amends and restates in its entirety such Schedule 13D (as so amended and restated, this “Schedule”) with respect to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Neuberger Berman Inc., a Delaware Corporation (the “Company”). This Amendment No. 5 is being filed primarily to report that the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons (as defined in Item 2 below) has decreased by an amount in excess of one percent of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. All share numbers reported in this Schedule give effect to a three-for-two stock split paid in shares of Common Stock on August 16, 2001 to stockholders of record on August 1, 2001. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 5 but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 1.  Security and Issuer

 

This Schedule relates to the Common Stock. The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 605 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10158.

 

Item 2.  Identity and Background

 

(a), (b), (c), (f) The Original Schedule 13D was filed by individuals (each an “Initial Principal”) and certain of their affiliates (each, an “Initial Family Affiliate” and, together with the Initial Principals the “Initial Reporting Persons”) who are listed on Annex I to this Schedule. The Initial Reporting Persons filed the Original Schedule 13D solely because they were subject to the voting provisions contained in the Stockholders Agreement dated as of August 2, 1999 (as amended from time to time, the “Stockholders Agreement”) described below. Since the date of the filing of the Original Schedule 13D, certain of the Initial Principals have transferred shares of their Common Stock to new or successor family affiliates (each new affiliate or successor affiliate a “Successor Family Affiliate”) listed on Annex I to this Schedule. The Successor Family Affiliates are bound by the terms and provisions of the Stockholders Agreement described below. Certain of the Initial Reporting Persons have ceased to be employees of the Company since the date of the Original Schedule 13D. Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement described below, such Initial Reporting Persons are no longer subject to the voting provisions of the Stockholders Agreement but remain subject to the transfer restrictions in the Stockholders Agreement as described below. The Initial Principals who currently remain subject to the Stockholders Agreement are listed on Appendix A to this Schedule and are referred to herein as “Principals”. The Initial Family Affiliates and the Successor Family Affiliates that are currently subject to the voting provisions of the Stockholders Agreement are listed on Appendix A to this Schedule and are referred to herein as “Family Affiliates”. The Principals and Family Affiliates that currently remain subject to the voting provisions in the Stockholders Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “Reporting Persons”.

 

20


 

The Reporting Persons are together making this filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) solely due to their being subject to the voting provisions in the Stockholders Agreement. Information with respect to each Reporting Person is given solely by such Reporting Person and no Reporting Person has responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of information supplied by any other Reporting Person. The Initial Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement, dated October 13, 1999 (the “Joint Filing Agreement”),which is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule. Each Successor Family Affiliate has entered into the Joint Filing Agreement and such Agreement is filed as an Exhibit.

 

The Company, through its subsidiaries is an investment advisory company, providing clients with a broad range of investment products, services and strategies. Its principal business segments include: Private Asset Management, Mutual Fund and Institutional and Professional Securities Services. Each Principal is a director, executive officer and/or senior professional employee of the Company. The business address of each Principal is 605 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10158. Each Initial Family Affiliate and Successor Family Affiliate is a family limited partnership or trust formed by a Principal for investment and estate planning purposes. The business address of each Initial Family Affiliate and the Successor Family Affiliates is c/o Neuberger Berman Trust Company of Delaware, 919 Market Street, Suite 506, Wilmington, Delaware 19801.

 

(d), (e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor any of the partners or trustees of any Reporting Person has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is 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 to a finding of any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

The Founder Shares (as defined below) were originally acquired by the Reporting Persons in the Exchange (as defined below).

 

The Non-Founder Shares (as defined below) acquired by certain Reporting Persons have been acquired with the personal funds of the respective Reporting Person or in connection with an employee compensation, benefit or similar plan sponsored by the Company. Certain of these shares acquired under such plans are subject to forfeiture, certain vesting restrictions and/or limitations on transfer and sale.

 

21


Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

 

On October 7, 1999, the Initial Reporting Persons acquired beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 64,090,909 shares of Common Stock in exchange for their interests in Neuberger Berman, LLC (“NB LLC”) and Neuberger Berman Management Inc. (“NBMI”). The exchange of such shares of Common Stock for the Initial Reporting Persons’ interests in NB LLC and NBMI is referred to herein as the “Exchange.” The Initial Family Affiliates had previously acquired their interests in NBMI through contributions from the Initial Principals. Effective October 13, 1999, certain Initial Reporting Persons disposed of an aggregate of 6,329,545 shares of Common Stock in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”).

 

In connection with the Exchange, the Initial Reporting Persons and the Company entered into the Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement generally applies only to those shares of Common Stock that were acquired by the Initial Reporting Persons pursuant to the Exchange and not sold in the IPO (the “Founder Shares”) and does not apply to shares of Common Stock acquired by the Initial Reporting Persons in connection with any employee compensation, benefit or similar plans sponsored by the Company or in the open market (the “Non-Founder Shares”).

 

On July 5, 2001, certain of the Initial Reporting Persons sold an aggregate of 4,393,315 shares of Common Stock in a secondary offering (the “Secondary Offering”). In addition, immediately following the completion of the Secondary Offering, certain other Initial Reporting Persons sold an aggregate of 2,400,900 shares of Common Stock to the Company (the “Repurchase”).

 

On July 29, 2002, certain of the Initial Reporting Persons sold an aggregate of 2,762,593 shares of Common Stock in a secondary offering (the “2002 Secondary Offering”).

 

Since the date of the Original Schedule 13D, certain of the Initial Principals have ceased to be employed by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, the restrictions on the ability of each such Initial Principal and his or her Family Affiliates to vote their Founder Shares were lifted upon the termination of such Initial Principal’s employment with the Company. Accordingly, such Initial Principals and their Family Affiliates are no longer filers jointly filing this Schedule 13D.

 

From time to time since the date of the IPO, the Board of Directors has waived certain of the transfer restrictions to permit certain Reporting Persons to sell or otherwise transfer certain of their Founder Shares, including sales in the Secondary Offering, the 2002 Secondary Offering and in the Repurchase. In addition, from time to time, in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, certain Reporting Persons have sold Founders Shares that were no longer subject to transfer restrictions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement.

 

In accordance with past practice, the Board of Directors has waived certain of the transfer restrictions to permit Reporting Persons to contribute Founder Shares to a charity of the respective Reporting Person’s choice. During the week of December 3, 2002, certain Reporting Persons contributed 358,320 Founders Shares to charity.

 

22


 

Except as described in Item 6 of this Schedule, none of the Reporting Persons has any present plans or proposals with respect to the Company that relate to or would result in any of the events enumerated in Item 4. However, each Reporting Person is expected to evaluate on an ongoing basis the Company’s financial condition and prospects and his, her or its interests in and with respect to the Company. Accordingly, each Reporting Person may change his, her or its plans and intentions at any time and from time to time. In particular, each Reporting Person may at any time and from time to time acquire or dispose of shares of Common Stock. Reporting Persons may from time to time in the future acquire beneficial ownership of additional shares of Common Stock in connection with employee compensation, benefit or similar plans sponsored by the Company or through open market or negotiated purchases.

 

Item 5.  Interest in the Securities of the Issuer

 

(a) Appendix A is hereby incorporated by reference. The Reporting Persons hold in the aggregate 22,887,701 Founder Shares, which represent 32.62% of the outstanding Common Stock. All percentages used in this Schedule are calculated based on 70,154,154 shares of Common Stock that were outstanding as of March 31, 2003.

 

(b) Appendix A is hereby incorporated by reference.

 

(c) Except as described in Annex II, no Reporting Person has effected any transactions in shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

 

(d), (e) Not applicable.

 

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

  A.   Family Affiliates

 

Many of the Principals have formed one or more Family Affiliates as a family limited partnership or trust for investment and estate planning purposes. For each Family Affiliate that is a family limited partnership, the respective Principal is the sole stockholder of its sole general partner and exercises sole voting and investment control over the Family Affiliate. For each Family Affiliate that is a grantor retained annuity trust (“GRAT”), generally the respective Principal, as trustee, has sole voting control and in most circumstances shares investment control with Neuberger Berman Trust Company of Delaware and in certain instances one or more other trustees. In the case of Successor Family Affiliates, generally the respective Principals are not trustees, but Neuberger Berman Trust Company of Delaware is a trustee.

 

23


 

  B.   Joint Filing Agreement

 

Each Reporting Person is a party to the Joint Filing Agreement, in which the Reporting Persons agreed that the Original Schedule 13D (and any amendments thereto) in respect of the Common Stock be filed jointly on behalf of each such person, and further agreed that this agreement be included as an exhibit to such joint filings. The Joint Filing Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule and additional Joint Filing Agreements are filed as Exhibit 4 and Exhibit 6 to this Schedule. The foregoing summary of the terms of this Joint Filing Agreement and any amendments thereto is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

 

  C.   Stockholders Agreement

 

The Initial Reporting Persons and the Company entered into the Stockholders Agreement as a condition precedent to the consummation of the Exchange. Successor Family Affiliates have agreed to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2 to this Schedule and the following summary of the terms of such agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

 

The Stockholders Agreement generally applies only to Founder Shares and does not apply to shares of Common Stock acquired by Reporting Persons in connection with any employee compensation, benefit or similar plans sponsored by the Company or in the open market.

 

  i.   Transfer Restrictions

 

Each Reporting Person has agreed in the Stockholders Agreement, among other things, (a) to not transfer any shares acquired pursuant to the Exchange prior to January 1, 2002, (b) to transfer no more than 10 percent of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock received in the Exchange beneficially owned by such Initial Reporting Person in any calendar year, cumulatively, and (c) to retain beneficial ownership of Founder Shares at least equal to 30 percent of the cumulative number of shares of Common Stock received in the Exchange prior to the third anniversary of such Initial Principal’s date of termination of employment with the Company (the “Termination Date”). If any Initial Principal’s Termination Date occurs prior to January 1, 2003, such Initial Principal and his or her Initial Family Affiliates and Successor Family Affiliates may not, among other things, transfer any shares of Common Stock received in the Exchange prior to January 1, 2007 unless such transfer restriction is otherwise waived by the Board of Directors.

 

From time to time since the date of the IPO, the Board of Directors has waived certain of the transfer restrictions to permit certain Reporting Persons to sell or otherwise transfer certain of their Founder Shares, including, but not limited to, sales in the Secondary Offering, the Repurchase and the 2002 Secondary Offering.

 

24


 

  ii.   Certificates to be Held by the Company

 

Each Reporting Person has agreed that the certificates representing such Initial Reporting Person’s Founder Shares shall be issued in the name of a nominee holder to be designated by the Company and shall be held in custody by the Company at its principal office. Upon a written statement by the Reporting Person that he, she or it is then permitted to transfer a specified number of Founder Shares under the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement, the Company shall cause the nominee holder to promptly release from custody the certificates representing such specified number of such Reporting Person’s Founder Shares that are then intended and permitted to be transferred.

 

Whenever the nominee holder shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution upon any Founder Shares, the Company shall cause the nominee holder to distribute promptly such cash dividend or other distribution to the Reporting Persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the pendency of any dispute between the Company and any Reporting Person under the Stockholders Agreement, the Plan of Merger and Exchange, dated as of August 2, 1999, or the Non-Competition Agreement, dated as of August 2, 1999, of such Reporting Person, all cash dividends and other cash distributions received by the nominee holder in respect of the Founder Shares of such Reporting Person shall be retained by the nominee holder and shall not be distributed until the final resolution of such dispute.

 

  iii.   Voting Provisions

 

Prior to any vote of the stockholders of the Company, the Stockholders Agreement requires a separate, preliminary vote on each matter upon which a vote of the stockholders is proposed to be taken (the “Preliminary Vote”). Each Founder Share held by a Reporting Person will be voted in accordance with the majority of the votes cast in the Preliminary Vote. For purposes of effecting such votes, each Reporting Person has appointed the Secretary of the Company as his, her or its attorney-in-fact and agent.

 

These voting provisions (but not the transfer restrictions) will terminate with respect to any Initial Principal and his, her or its Family Affiliates at the close of business on the Termination Date of such Initial Principal.

 

  iv.   Right to Purchase Shares

 

If, on or prior to the third anniversary of the Termination Date of any Initial Principal, the Board of Directors determines in its good faith judgment that such Initial Principal has engaged in Harmful Activity (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the Company shall have the right to purchase, at any time or from time to time, from such Initial Principal, the number of Founder Shares owned by such Initial Principal and his or her Family Affiliates that could not have been transferred by such Initial Reporting Persons in accordance with the Stockholders Agreement.
