SCHEDULE 13D
Statement of
LIBERTY MEDIA CORPORATION
Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
in respect of
Four Media Company
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Liberty" or the
"Reporting Person"), is filing this Statement on Schedule 13D (this "Statement")
with respect to the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"),
of Four Media Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The Issuer's
principal executive offices are located at 2813 West Alameda Avenue, Burbank,
California 91505.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
The reporting person is Liberty, whose principal business and principal
office address is 9197 South Peoria Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112.
Prior to March 9, 1999, Liberty was controlled by Tele-Communications,
Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TCI"). TCI's principal business address is 9197
South Peoria Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112. TCI is principally engaged
through its subsidiaries and affiliates in the acquisition, development and
operation of cable television systems throughout the United States.
As a result of the consummation on March 9, 1999 of the merger (the "AT&T
Merger") of a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T Corp., a New York corporation
("AT&T"), with and into TCI, (i) TCI became a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T;
(ii) the businesses and assets of the Liberty Media Group and TCI Ventures Group
of TCI were combined; and (iii) the holders of TCI's Liberty Media Group common
stock and TCI Ventures Group common stock received in exchange for their shares
a new class of common stock of AT&T intended to reflect the results of AT&T's
"Liberty Media Group". Following the AT&T Merger, AT&T's "Liberty Media Group"
consists of the assets and businesses of TCI's Liberty Media Group and its TCI
Ventures Group prior to the AT&T Merger, except for certain assets which were
transferred to TCI's "TCI Group" in connection with
Page 4 of 13 Pages
<PAGE>
the AT&T Merger, and the "AT&T Common Stock Group" consists of all of the other
assets and businesses of AT&T. AT&T's principal business address is 32 Avenue of
the Americas, New York, New York 10013. AT&T is principally engaged in the
business of providing voice, data and video communications services to large and
small businesses, consumers and government entities in the United States and
internationally.
The Board of Directors and management of the Reporting Person manage the
business and affairs of the Reporting Person. Although the Reporting Person is
a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T, a majority of the Reporting Person's Board of
Directors consists of individuals designated by TCI prior to the AT&T Merger.
If these individuals or their designated successors cease to constitute a
majority of the Reporting Person's Board of Directors, the Reporting Person will
transfer all of its assets and businesses to a new entity. Although this new
entity would be owned substantially by AT&T, it would continue to be managed
(including with respect to the voting and disposition of the Shares) by
management of the Reporting Person prior to such transfer of assets.
The Liberty Media Group, principally through the Reporting Person, is
engaged in (i) the production, acquisition and distribution through all
available formats and media of branded entertainment, educational and
informational programming and software, including multimedia products, (ii)
electronic retailing, direct marketing, advertising sales related to programming
services, infomercials and transaction processing, (iii) international cable
television distribution, telephony and programming, (iv) satellite
communications and (v) investments in wireless domestic telephony and other
technology ventures.
Schedule 1 attached to this Statement contains the following information
concerning each director, executive officer or controlling person of the
Reporting Person: (i) name and residence or business address, (ii) principal
occupation or employment; and (iii) the name, principal business and address of
any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted.
Schedule 1 is incorporated herein by reference.
To the knowledge of the Reporting Person, each of the persons named on
Schedule 1 (the "Schedule 1 Persons") is a United States citizen, except for
David J.A. Flowers, who is a Canadian citizen. During the last five years,
neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge
of the Reporting Person) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding
traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). During the last five years,
neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge
of the Reporting Person) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such
proceeding, is or was 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.
Schedule 2 attached to this Statement contains the following information
which has been provided to the Reporting Person by AT&T concerning each
director, executive officer or controlling person of AT&T: (i) name and
residence or business address, (ii) principal occupation or employment; and
(iii) the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other
Page 5 of 13 Pages
<PAGE>
organization in which such employment is conducted. Schedule 2 is incorporated
herein by reference.
Based upon information provided to the Reporting Person by AT&T (without
any independent investigation), (i) to the knowledge of AT&T, each of the
persons named on Schedule 2 (the "Schedule 2 Persons") is a United States
citizen, (ii) during the last five years, neither AT&T nor any of the Schedule 2
Persons (to the knowledge of AT&T) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), and (iii) during the
last five years, neither AT&T nor any of the Schedule 2 Persons (to the
knowledge of AT&T) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such
proceeding, is or was 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.
