This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) relates to Class A common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Shares”), of Seritage Growth Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Issuer”). This Amendment amends the Schedule 13D, as previously amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by ESL Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Partners”), RBS Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“RBS”), ESL Investments, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ESL”), and Edward S. Lampert, a United States citizen, by furnishing the information set forth below. Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment, all previous Items are unchanged. Capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein have the meaning given to them in the Schedule 13D, as previously amended, filed with the SEC.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“On February 23, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Issuer, as guarantor, entered into a $200 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility (the “Facility”) with JPP, LLC (“JPP”) and JPP II, LLC, as lenders (together with JPP, the “Initial Lenders”), and JPP, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). Mr. Lampert, the Issuer’s Chairman, is the sole stockholder, chief executive officer and director of ESL, which controls the Initial Lenders. The Issuer expects to use the proceeds of the Facility, among other things, to fund redevelopment projects and for other general corporate purposes. Loans under the Facility are guaranteed by the Issuer.

Loans under the Facility (which was undrawn on the Closing Date) may be requested by the Operating Partnership at any time from the Closing Date until thirty days prior to the stated maturity date, upon five business days prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The total commitments of the lenders under the Facility are $200,000,000, provided that the maximum draw amount under the Facility through April 30, 2017 is $100,000,000, which amount increases to $150,000,000 on May 1, 2017 and $200,000,000 on September 1, 2017, in each instance so long as no cash flow sweep period (as defined in the Issuer’s existing mortgage loan facility on file with the SEC) is then in effect and continuing as of such date under the Issuer’s existing mortgage loan facility. Amounts drawn under the Facility and repaid may not be redrawn.

The Facility will mature the earlier of (i) December 31, 2017 and (ii) the date on which the outstanding indebtedness under the Issuer’s existing mortgage and mezzanine facilities are repaid in full. The Facility may be prepaid at any time in whole or in part, without any penalty or premium.

The principal amount of loans outstanding under the Facility will bear a base annual interest rate of 6.50%. If a cash flow sweep period were to occur and be continuing under the Issuer’s existing mortgage loan indebtedness (i) the interest rate on any outstanding advances would increase from and after such date by 1.50% per annum above the base interest rate and (ii) the interest rate on any advances made after such date would increase by 3.50% per annum above the base interest rate, in each case, for so long as the cash flow sweep is continuing. Accrued and unpaid interest will be payable in cash, except that during the continuance of a cash flow sweep period under the Issuer’s existing mortgage loan facility, the Operating Partnership may defer the payment of interest which deferred amount would be added to the outstanding principal balance of the loans and on which interest would be payable from and after the date of such deferral.

On the Closing Date, the Operating Partnership paid to the Initial Lenders an upfront commitment fee equal to $1,000,000. The Operating Partnership will also be required to pay an additional commitment fee of $1,000,000 on the date that is ninety days after the Closing Date unless prior thereto (i) at least 33.33% of the total commitments of the lenders have been syndicated to lenders who are not affiliates of the Initial Lenders or (ii) the Facility has been paid in full and the lenders’ commitments have been terminated.

The Facility documentation requires that the Issuer at all times maintain (i) a net worth of not less than $1,000,000,000, and (ii) a leverage ratio not to exceed 60.00%.


The Facility includes customary representations and warranties, covenants and indemnities. The Facility also has customary events of default, including (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, material inaccuracy of representation or warranty, and bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings. If there is an event of default, the lenders may declare all or any portion of the outstanding indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, exercise any rights they might have under any of the Facility documents, and require the Operating Partnership to pay a default interest rate on overdue amounts equal to 1.50% in excess of the then applicable interest rate.

The terms of the Facility were approved by the Issuer’s Audit Committee and the Issuer’s Board of Trustees (with Mr. Lampert recusing himself).

The foregoing descriptions of the Facility do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Senior Unsecured Term Loan Agreement for the Facility, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 24, 2017, and is incorporated by reference herein.”

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“(a)-(b) Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor anything herein shall be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act or any other purpose, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D.

Each Reporting Person may be deemed to be a member of a group with respect to the Issuer or securities of the Issuer for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act. Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor anything herein shall be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act or any other purpose, (i) acting (or has agreed or is agreeing to act) with any other person as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate, or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding, or disposing of securities of the Issuer or otherwise with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer or (ii) a member of any syndicate or group with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer.
