EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 15 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 15”) is being filed with respect to the limited partnership units (the “Units”) of Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (the “Issuer” or “BPY”).

Information reported and defined terms used in the original Schedule 13D, as amended to the date hereof (this “Schedule 13D”), remain in effect except to the extent that they are amended or superseded by information or defined terms contained in this Amendment No. 15.

3. Source and Amendment of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented to include the following information:

The description of the Proposal set forth in Item 4 below is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.

4. Purpose of the Transaction.

Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented to add the following:

On January 3, 2021, Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“BAM”) submitted a preliminary non-binding letter (the “Proposal Letter”) to the board of directors of the general partner of the Issuer proposing a transaction for BAM to acquire all of the outstanding Units of the Issuer, other than those Units currently held by BAM and its affiliates (the “Proposal”), at a price of $16.50 per Unit. Each unitholder can elect to receive, any of $16.50 in cash, 0.40 class A limited voting shares of BAM (“Brookfield Shares”), or 0.66 BPY preferred units with a liquidation preference of $25 per unit (subject to proration) per unit. Proration will be based on a maximum cash consideration of $2.95 billion (50% of the total value), a maximum of 59.5 million Brookfield Shares and a maximum value of $500 million of BPY preferred units. If unitholders collectively elect to receive in excess of $500 million BPY preferred units, the amount of BPY preferred units can increase to a maximum of $1.0 billion, offset against the maximum amount of Brookfield Shares. The maximum amount of cash consideration would not be affected. A copy of the Proposal Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 13.

On January 4, 2021, BAM issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing the Proposal, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 14.

The Reporting Persons and their affiliates may at any time, or from time to time, acquire additional Units or dispose of their Units; propose, pursue, or choose not to pursue the Proposal; change the terms of the Proposal, including the price, form of consideration, conditions, or scope of the transaction.

While the Proposal remains under consideration or negotiation by the Issuer and the board of directors of its general partner (including the independent committee), the Reporting Persons and/or their affiliates expect to respond to inquiries from, and negotiate the terms of the Proposal with, the Issuer and the board of directors of its general partner (including the independent committee) or their respective representatives. These negotiations may include changes to the terms of the Proposal, including the consideration. The Reporting Persons do not intend to update additional disclosures regarding the Proposal until a definitive agreement has been reached, or unless disclosure is otherwise required under applicable U.S. or Canadian securities laws.

The Proposal Letter provides that it does not create any legally binding obligations and that no such obligations will exist unless and until mutually acceptable definitive documentation has been executed and delivered. No binding obligation on the part of the Reporting Persons or any of their affiliates will arise with respect to the filing of this Amendment No. 15.

Other than as described above and in the Proposal Letter, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals of the type referred to in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although they and their affiliates reserve the right to formulate such plans or proposals in the future. If the proposed transaction is not consummated, the Reporting Persons and their affiliates will continue to regularly review and assess their investment in the Issuer and


depending on market conditions and other factors may determine, from time to time, to engage in any of the events set forth in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The foregoing descriptions of the Proposal Letter and the Press Release do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Proposal Letter and the Press Release, respectively, filed herewith.

6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented to incorporate by reference the information set forth in Item 4 above.

7. Materials to be Filed as Exhibits.

Item 7 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following exhibit:

Exhibit 13. Letter to the Board of Directors, dated January 3, 2021.

Exhibit 14. Press Release, dated January 4, 2021.


SIGNATURE

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of each undersigned’s knowledge and belief, the undersigned certifies as to itself that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.

Re: Proposed Acquisition of Brookfield Property Partners LP

Dear Lou:

Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“Brookfield”) is pleased to submit the following non-binding proposal for the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity units of Brookfield Property Partners LP (“BPY” or the “Partnership”) not currently owned by Brookfield and its affiliates (the “Units”). It is Brookfield’s desire to proceed with a transaction with the support of the Board of Directors of the Partnership’s general partner.

We would propose to acquire all of the Units for a price of US$16.50 per Unit. Each unitholder can elect to receive, any of $16.50 in cash, 0.40 Class A limited voting shares of Brookfield (“Brookfield Shares”), or 0.66 of BPY preferred units with a liquidation preference of $25 per unit (subject to pro-ration) per Unit. Pro-ration will be based on a maximum cash consideration of $2.95 billion (50% of the total value), a maximum of 59.5 million Brookfield Shares and a maximum value of $500 million of BPY preferred units. If unitholders collectively elect to receive in excess of $500 million BPY preferred units, the amount of BPY preferred units can increase to a maximum of $1.0 billion, offset against the maximum amount of Brookfield Shares. The maximum amount of cash consideration would not be affected.

The $16.50 per unit price represents a premium of 14.9% and 14.0%, respectively, to the closing price of the Units on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on December 31, 2020. This price also represents a premium of 8.9% and 29.4%, respectively, to the 30-day and 180-day volume-weighted average price of the Units on the Nasdaq.

Brookfield will ensure that holders of the Class A Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Brookfield Property REIT Inc. (“BPYU”) will be entitled to receive the same per share consideration as BPY unitholders under the proposal upon exchange of their shares into Units. Brookfield is not proposing to acquire other securities of BPY and its subsidiaries, which are expected to remain outstanding.


We believe that:

 

 

The $16.50 per unit price represents a premium of 14.9% and 14.0%, respectively, to the closing price of the Units on the TSX and Nasdaq on December 31, 2020. This price also represents a premium of 8.9% and 29.4%, respectively, to the 30-day and 180-day volume-weighted average price of the Units on the Nasdaq.

 

 

BPY’s unit price hit an all-time low of $7.10 in March 2020 when concerns and uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic were at their apex.

 

 

The transaction presents an excellent opportunity for BPY’s public unitholders to either monetize their units in cash at a premium to recent trading prices, continue to invest with Brookfield in the upside of the portfolio via Brookfield shares or select BPY preferred units designed for income-oriented investors who would like to maintain similar dividend income which they receive from BPY today in a preferred instrument based on what is best for them.

We would ask that the Board of Directors of the Partnership’s general partner promptly begin a process to review the proposal and appoint a Special Committee of independent directors to commission an independent valuation of the Units. In the meantime, we would like to work with representatives of the Partnership regarding an acquisition structure that would be mutually beneficial to the Partnership and its unitholders, as well as to Brookfield.

We would seek to enter into a definitive agreement with the Partnership governing the terms of the proposed transaction as soon as possible thereafter. The agreement would be in a form that is customary in the circumstances and would include, among other terms, provisions for support of the transaction and limited representations, warranties, covenants and conditions to closing.

We would also like to take this opportunity to confirm that we are interested only in acquiring the Units at this time and are not prepared to pursue any alternative transaction which would result in the selling of our interest in the Partnership or the acquisition by a third party of the Units of the Partnership we do not already own.

Further, in accordance with our timely disclosure obligations, we will be issuing a press release describing our proposal pre-market tomorrow morning, a copy of which is enclosed for your reference. As required by applicable law, we intend to promptly file an amended Schedule 13D (and corresponding “early warning” report) reflecting our having made this proposal.


This letter does not constitute a binding agreement between us, nor does it impose any binding obligations or liabilities on either of us. Any binding agreement or obligation with respect to the proposed transaction would arise only upon the execution of a definitive agreement.

We hope that we are able to advance this process as quickly as reasonably practicable to minimize uncertainty for the Partnership and its unitholders, employees and other stakeholders. We trust that you will see the merits of this proposal and we look forward to working with the Partnership, its Board and Special Committee.

Yours very truly,

 

/s/ J. Bruce Flatt

Brookfield Asset Management and Institutional Partners Propose to Acquire 100% of the Units of Brookfield Property Partners Not Owned by Brookfield for $5.9 Billion

January 04, 2021

All dollar references are in U.S. dollars, unless noted otherwise.

BROOKFIELD NEWS, Jan. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“Brookfield”) (NYSE: BAM; TSX: BAM.A) with institutional partners announced today that it has made a proposal to Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (“BPY”) (NASDAQ: BPY; TSX: BPY.UN) to acquire all of the limited partnership units of BPY that it does not already own (“BPY units”) at a value of $16.50 per BPY unit, or $5.9 billion in total value.

Subject to pro-ration, BPY unitholders would have the ability to elect to receive, per BPY unit, $16.50 in cash, 0.40 Brookfield Class A shares, or 0.66 of BPY preferred units with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit. Pro-ration will be based on a maximum cash consideration of $2.95 billion (50% of the total value of the units), a maximum of 59.5 million Brookfield shares (42% of the total value of the units), and a maximum value of $500 million of BPY preferred units (8% of the total value of the units). If unitholders collectively elect to receive in excess of $500 million BPY preferred units, the amount of BPY preferred units can increase to a maximum of $1.0 billion, offset against the maximum amount of Brookfield shares. The maximum amount of cash consideration would not be affected.

The $16.50 per unit price represents a premium of 14.9% and 14.0%, respectively, to the closing price of the BPY units on the TSX and Nasdaq on December 31, 2020. This price also represents a premium of 8.9% and 29.4%, respectively, to the 30-day and 180-day volume-weighted average price of the BPY units on the Nasdaq.

Nick Goodman, CFO of Brookfield Asset Management stated, “The offer presents an excellent opportunity for BPY unitholders to either monetize their units in cash at a premium to recent trading prices, continue to invest with us in the upside of the portfolio via Brookfield shares, or select BPY preferred units designed for income-oriented investors who would like to maintain similar dividend income which they receive from BPY today in a preferred instrument, based on what is best for them.”

He continued, “The privatization will allow us to have greater flexibility in operating the portfolio and realizing the intrinsic value of BPY’s high-quality assets.”

Brookfield will ensure that holders of the Class A stock of Brookfield Property REIT Inc. (NASDAQ: BPYU) will be entitled to receive the same per share consideration as BPY unitholders under the proposal upon exchange of their shares into BPY units. It is also expected that the BPYU 6.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred stock would be redeemed at its par value of $25.00 per share in connection with the proposed transaction. Brookfield is not proposing to acquire other securities of BPY and its subsidiaries, which are expected to remain outstanding.

Process

Brookfield has presented its proposal to the board of directors of the general partner of BPY and has asked the board to begin a process to review the proposal and appoint a special committee of independent directors to commission an independent valuation of the BPY units. Once the valuation is available, Brookfield would seek to enter into a definitive agreement with BPY with respect to the proposed transaction


for presentation to unitholders.

This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell securities. There is no certainty that the proposed transaction will proceed or be consummated.
