This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed on February 14th, 2011 (this “Amendment No. 4”), as further amended by Amendments No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3, on behalf of RP STAK, SAN FAUSTIN and TECHINT HOLDINGS (as defined thereunder), relating to the Ordinary Shares, par value $1 per share of Tenaris S.A. (the “Ordinary Shares”).

 

No changes occurred except on the following Items:

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer

 

The principal executive offices of the Issuer were moved to 26, Boulevard Royal, 4th Floor, Luxembourg L-2449, Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background

 

This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by each of the following persons pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).

 

(a)ROCCA & PARTNERS STICHTING ADMINISTRATIEKANTOOR AANDELEN SAN FAUSTIN (“RP STAK”)

“De Rotterdam” 41st floor, Wilhelminakade 173 – 3072 AP Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

RP STAK is a private foundation (stichting) organized under the laws of The Netherlands. No person or group of persons controls RP STAK.

 

(b)SAN FAUSTIN S.A. (“SAN FAUSTIN”)

26, Boulevard Royal, Ground Floor, L-2449 Luxembourg.

SAN FAUSTIN is a société anonyme (public limited liability company) organized under the laws of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. RP STAK continues to control SAN FAUSTIN (i.e. it continues to have the ability to influence matters affecting, or submitted to a vote of the shareholders of SAN FAUSTIN, including the election of directors and the approval of certain corporate transactions and other matters concerning SAN FAUSTIN’s policies).

 

(c)TECHINT HOLDINGS S.À R.L. (“TECHINT HOLDINGS”)

26, Boulevard Royal, Ground Floor, L-2449 Luxembourg

TECHINT HOLDINGS is a société à responsabilité limitée (private limited liability company) organized under the laws of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. All of the shares of TECHINT HOLDINGS are held by SAN FAUSTIN.

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons listed on Schedule I has (i) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) 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 finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

The events requiring the filing of this Amendment No. 4 did not involve any transfer of funds or any kind of consideration. This filing is due to some minor changes in the composition of the Board of Directors or executive officers, their residence or business address and/or their present principal occupation or employment of some of the Reporting Persons.

 

There were no changes in the holdings of Ordinary Shares of RP STAK, SAN FAUSTIN and TECHINT HOLDINGS since such Reporting Persons filed their most recent Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D on June 25th, 2020.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

There were no changes in the holdings of Ordinary Shares of RP STAK, SAN FAUSTIN and TECHINT HOLDINGS since such Reporting Persons filed their most recent Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D on June 25th, 2020. RP STAK continues to control SAN FAUSTIN (i.e. it continues to have the ability to influence matters affecting, or submitted to a vote of the shareholders of SAN FAUSTIN, including the election of directors and the approval of certain corporate transactions and other matters concerning SAN FAUSTIN’s policies).
