CUSIP NO. 05367P100 SCHEDULE 13D Page 8 of 11
Item 1. Security and Issuer
- ----------------------------
This Amendment No. 4 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule
13D") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
on June 19, 2006 by Blum Capital Partners, L.P., a California limited
partnership, ("Blum LP"); Richard C. Blum & Associates, Inc., a California
corporation ("RCBA Inc."); Blum Strategic GP III, L.L.C., a Delaware limited
liability company ("Blum GP III"); Blum Strategic GP III, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership ("Blum GP III LP"); Blum Strategic Partners III, L.P.,
a Delaware limited partnership ("Blum Strategic III") and Saddlepoint
Partners GP, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("Saddlepoint
GP") (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). This amendment relates to
shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock") of
Avid Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The principal
executive office and mailing address of the Issuer is One Park West,
Tewksbury, MA 01876. The following amendments to the Schedule 13D are
hereby made. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
- ---------------------------------------------
(a), (b) According to the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed with the Commission
on May 10, 2006, there were 42,239,625 shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding as of April 24, 2006. Based on such information, after
taking into account the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the
Reporting Persons report beneficial ownership of the following shares of
Common Stock: (i) 1,869,529 shares of Common Stock held by Blum LP and
RCBA Inc. on behalf of the limited partnerships for which Blum LP serves
as the general partner, or on behalf of an entity for which Blum LP serves
as investment advisor, which represents 4.4% of the outstanding shares of
the Common Stock; (ii) 3,472,204 shares of the Common Stock held by Blum
GP III which serves as general partner of Blum GP III LP which, in turn,
serves as the general partner of Blum Strategic III, which represents
8.2% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (iii) 168,050 shares
of the Common Stock held by Saddlepoint GP on behalf of a partnership
for which it serves as the general partner, which represents 0.4% of
the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; and (iv) 61,500 shares of
the Common Stock that are legally owned by The Nuclear Decommissioning
Trust of Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. ("Dominion Connecticut"),
which represents 0.1% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock
and 61,500 shares of the Common Stock that are legally owned by Virginia
Electric and Power Company Qualified Nuclear Decommissioning Trust
("Virginia Electric"), which represents 0.1% of the outstanding shares
of the Common Stock (collectively, the "Investment Advisory Clients"),
with respect to which Blum LP has voting and investment power. Each
Investment Advisory Client has entered into an investment management
agreement with Blum LP, but neither Investment Advisory Client has any
contract, arrangement or understanding with the other Investment Advisory
Client, or any other Reporting Person, with respect to the acquisition,
ownership, disposition or voting of any shares of the Common Stock.
Each Investment Advisory Client disclaims membership in a group with
any Reporting Person or with the other Investment Advisory Client, and
each disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares beneficially owned
by the Reporting Persons other than for their own account.
Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely
by Blum LP, Blum GP III and Saddlepoint GP. The Reporting Persons
therefore may be deemed to be members in a group, in which case the
group would be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of
5,632,783 shares of the Common Stock, which is 13.3% of the outstanding
Common Stock. As the sole general partner of Blum LP, RCBA Inc. is
deemed the beneficial owner of the securities over which Blum LP has
voting and investment power. The filing of this Schedule shall not be
CUSIP NO. 05367P100 SCHEDULE 13D Page 9 of 11
construed as an admission that any of the shareholders, directors or
executive officers of RCBA Inc. or the managing members and members
of Blum GP III, Blum GP III LP and Saddlepoint GP, is, for any
purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that are
beneficially owned by RCBA Inc., Blum GP III LP, Blum GP III or
Saddlepoint GP.
c) Since the most recent filing of Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons
effected the following transactions in the Common Stock:
The Reporting Persons purchased the following number of shares of Common
Stock in the open market:
