In connection with the Restructuring, warrants exercisable for 5,939,845 UPC Ordinary Shares A were cancelled.
Item 1 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
This Amended Statement on Schedule 13D (this "Statement") relates to the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of UGC Europe, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), a successor registrant to United Pan-Europe Communications N.V. ("UPC"). The Issuer was formed in connection with the restructuring of the UPC's capital structure and other obligations (the "Restructuring"). Following the Restructuring, the Issuer owns more than 99.0% of the combined classes of UPC Ordinary Shares A and UPC Ordinary Shares C, which are convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares of UPC Ordinary Shares A. The Issuer acquired the UPC Ordinary Shares A from shareholders of UPC, including the Reporting Person. In the Restructuring, the Issuer also acquired claims against UPC from creditors of UPC, including the Reporting Person, and acquired the obligations of UPC and one of its Dutch subsidiaries in connection with the $1,255.0 million 6% Guaranteed Discount Notes due 2007 (the "Exchangeable Loan"). In the Restructuring, the Issuer initially replaced these claims, including the Exchangeable Loan, with an intercompany loan from the Issuer to UPC. As part of the Restructuring, the Issuer cancelled this intercompany loan for UPC Ordinary Shares C, a portion of which were converted to UPC Ordinary Shares A. The Issuer's principal executive offices are located at 4643 S. Ulster Street, Suite 1300, Denver, Colorado 80237.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
On September 3, 2003, the Reporting Person acquired its securities in the Issuer as a result of the Restructuring. Pursuant to the Restructuring, the Reporting Person received its shares in the Issuer in exchange for the value of securities the Reporting Person held in UPC. (See Footnote (1) on previous page.) The Restructuring is more fully described in the second amended disclosure statement, dated January 7, 2003 filed by UPC and the Issuer, together with Annex A (second amended plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) and Annex B (Akkoord (as revised)), filed as an exhibit to UPC's Form 8-K dated January 9, 2003 (File No. 000-25365).
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
The Reporting Person currently holds shares of the Issuer's common stock for investment purposes. The Reporting Person may determine to change its investment intent with respect to the Issuer at any time in the future. In reaching any conclusion as to its future course of action, the Reporting Person will take into consideration various factors, such as the Issuer's business and prospects and the market price of the Issuer's ordinary shares A. The Reporting Person reserves the right, depending on other relevant factors, to (i) acquire additional shares of any class of the Issuer's common stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, (ii) dispose of all or a portion of its respective holdings of shares of any class of the Issuer's common stock, or (iii) change its intentions with respect to any or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.
The Reporting Person does not otherwise have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (i) any acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or any disposition of securities of the Issuer; (ii) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (vi) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (vii) any change in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or other instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (viii) any delisting from a national securities exchange or any loss of authorization for quotation in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association of a class of securities of the Issuer; (ix) any termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act of a class of equity securities of the Issuer; or (x) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
