Introduction
This Amendment No. 1 to Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3, together with the exhibits thereto (as amended, the Transaction Statement) is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Exchange Act), jointly by the following persons (each, a Filing Person, and collectively, the Filing Persons): (i) Rouse Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company) and the issuer of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (Common Stock) that are subject to the Rule 13E-3 transaction, (ii) Brookfield Asset Management, Inc., an Ontario corporation (BAM), (iii) BSREP II Retail Pooling LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Parent), (iv) BSREP II Retail Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (Acquisition Sub and together with Parent, the Parent Parties), and (v) Brookfield Retail Holdings VII LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (vi) New Brookfield Retail Holdings R2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (vii) Brookfield BPY Retail Holdings II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (viii) Brookfield Retail Holdings III Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (ix) Brookfield Retail Holdings II Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (x) Brookfield Retail Holdings IV-A Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (xi) Brookfield Retail Holdings IV-B Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (xii) Brookfield Retail Holdings IV-C Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and (xiii) Brookfield Retail Holdings IV-D Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each of the entities listed in (v) through (xiii) an Exchange Party and collectively, the Exchange Parties) and (xiv) Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners II-A L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, (xv) Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners II-A (ER) L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, (xvi) Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners II-B L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, (xvii) Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners II-C L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, (xviii) Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners II-C (ER) L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and (xix) Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners BPY Borrower L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (each of the entities listed in (xiv) through (xix) a Guarantor and collectively, the Guarantors).
On February 25, 2016, the Company, Parent, Acquisition Sub and, solely for the purposes stated therein, the Guarantors entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as it may be amended from time to time, the Merger Agreement).
The Merger Agreement provides for, among other things, the acquisition of the Company by Parent through a series of transactions consisting of: (i) after satisfaction or waiver of all closing conditions, an exchange (the Exchange) by the Exchange Parties, for new shares of Series I Preferred Stock of the Company (Series I Preferred Stock); (ii) on the next business day, if applicable, certain transactions, if any, that Parent may request between signing and closing, including the declaration of an extraordinary cash dividend (if any, in an amount to be determined by Parent in its discretion) to the holders of Common Stock, which is referred to as the Closing Dividend; and (iii) on the second business day after the Exchange, the merger of Acquisition Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as the surviving corporation (the Surviving Corporation), which is referred to as the Merger.
Through the Closing Dividend (if any) and the Merger, each holder of Common Stock, other than Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company and the Exchange Parties, will receive $18.25 in cash per share, without interest thereon, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, which are referred to as the Transactions. In connection with the closing, each option to purchase Common Stock that remains outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will become vested (if then unvested) in full and cancelled, and each holder thereof will be entitled to receive in respect of such option an amount in cash (without interest) equal to the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such option multiplied by the positive difference (if any) between $18.25 and per share exercise price
of such option. Also in connection with the closing, each share of Common Stock that is subject to vesting or forfeiture conditions, which is referred to as Company Restricted Stock, that remains outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be cancelled, and each holder thereof will be entitled to receive $18.25 in cash per share (consisting of the per share Closing Dividend amount and the per share merger consideration) of Company Restricted Stock, without interest thereon.
Concurrently with the filing of this Transaction Statement, the Company is filing with the SEC a definitive proxy statement (the Proxy Statement) under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, relating to a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which the holders of the Common Stock will be asked to consider and vote on a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. The adoption of the Merger Agreement requires the affirmative vote of the holders of (i) at least a majority of the Common Stock entitled to vote thereon and (ii) at least a majority of the outstanding Common Stock entitled to vote thereon held by stockholders other than Parent or any of its affiliates (including Brookfield Property Partners and its affiliates). A copy of the Proxy Statement is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(2)(i) and a copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to the Proxy Statement.
The cross-references below are being supplied pursuant to General Instruction G to Schedule 13E-3 and show the location in the Proxy Statement of the information required to be included in response to the items of Schedule 13E-3. Pursuant to General Instruction F to Schedule 13E-3, the information contained in the Proxy Statement, including all annexes thereto, is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, and the responses to each item in this Transaction Statement are qualified in their entirety by the information contained in the Proxy Statement and the annexes thereto. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Transaction Statement shall have the meanings given to them in the Proxy Statement.
While each of the Filing Persons acknowledges that the Merger is a going private transaction for purposes of Rule 13E-3 under the Exchange Act, the filing of this Transaction Statement shall not be construed as an admission by any Filing Person, or by any affiliate of a Filing Person, that the Company is controlled by any other Filing Person.
All information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Transaction Statement concerning each Filing Person has been supplied by such Filing Person.
