EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Schedule 13D/A (this Amendment) relates to common stock, $0.01 par value, International Assets Holding
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (International Assets), which has its principal executive offices at 220 East Central Parkway, Suite 2060, Altamonte Springs, Florida, and updates the Schedule 13D filed by FCStone Group
(FCStone), a Delaware corporation, on July 10, 2009 (the Original Schedule 13D). The Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by FCStone as set forth below in this Amendment. Unless set forth
below, all previous items of the Original Schedule 13D are unchanged. Capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Original Schedule 13D. This Amendment is being filed to amend the entities
listed on Schedule B and to amend the number of shares of common stock that are subject to the Support Agreement.
Item 3.
|
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
|
Item 3 of
the Original Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
FCStone entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
as of July 1, 2009, which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 1 (the Merger Agreement), with International Assets and International Assets Acquisition Corp., a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of International Assets
(Merger Sub) that provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into FCStone (the Merger) with FCStone continuing as the surviving corporation after the Merger. As an inducement for FCStone to enter into the Merger Agreement
and in consideration thereof, certain stockholders of International Assets and their affiliates identified on Schedule B (collectively, the Stockholders) entered into a Support Agreement with FCStone, dated as of July 1, 2009, as
more fully described in Item 4, whereby each Stockholder agreed that at any meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) of the holders of International Assets common stock, such Stockholder will vote all of its shares of International
Assets common stock currently owned by such Stockholder or acquired by such Stockholder after such date in favor of the matters contemplated in the Merger Agreement. FCStone did not pay additional consideration to the Stockholders in exchange for
the Support Agreement.
References to, and descriptions of, the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement throughout this
Schedule 13D are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D and the Support Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2 to this Schedule 13D. These agreements are
incorporated into this Schedule 13D where such references and descriptions appear.
Item 5.
|
Interest in Securities of the Issuer
|
Item 5 of the Original
Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(a) As a result of the Support Agreement, FCStone may be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of 2,777,584 shares of the issuers common stock. This number of shares represents approximately 30.5% of the issuers outstanding common stock, based on 9,106,009 shares of the issuers common stock outstanding as of
July 1, 2009, as represented by the issuer in the Merger Agreement. FCStone disclaims any beneficial ownership of such shares, and nothing herein shall be deemed to be an admission by FCStone as to the beneficial ownership of such shares.
(b) FCStone may be deemed to have shared voting power over the 2,777,584 shares of the issuers common stock beneficially owned by the Stockholders
due to FCStones right under the Support Agreement to direct the voting of such shares with respect to the matters specified in the Support Agreement. However, FCStone does not control the voting of such shares with respect to other matters,
and does not possess any other rights as an International Assets stockholder with respect to such shares. FCStone does not have any dispositive power over the shares of the issuers common stock held by the Stockholders. To FCStones
knowledge, no shares of International Assets common stock are beneficially owned by any of the persons identified in Schedule A to this Schedule 13D.
Information required by Items 2 (a)-(c) with respect to each Stockholder is set forth on Schedule B.
To FCStones knowledge, none of the persons identified on Schedule B with whom FCStone has shared voting power (i) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) during the last five
(5) years, or (ii) was 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 finding any violation with respect to such laws during the last five (5) years.
(c) Except for the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement, and the transactions contemplated by those agreements, to FCStones knowledge, no transactions in International Assets common stock have been
effected during the past sixty (60) days by any person named pursuant to Item 2.
(d) To FCStones knowledge, no person other than the
Stockholders identified on Schedule B has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, such shares.
(e) Not applicable.
