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as amended to the date hereof (this “Schedule 13D”), remain in effect except to the extent that they are amended or superseded by information or defined terms contained in this Amendment No. 15.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