SECURITY AND ISSUER. This statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") relates to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Shares"), of Dime Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Dime" or the "Issuer"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 595 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10017. ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND. This Schedule 13D is filed by Washington Mutual, Inc., a Washington corporation ("Washington Mutual" or the "Reporting Person"). The address of the principal business and principal office of the Reporting Person is 1201 Third Avenue, Seattle, Washington 98101. The Reporting Person is a national financial services company that provides a diversified line of products and services to consumers and small- to mid-sized businesses. The name; business address; present principal occupation or employment; name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted; and citizenship of each executive officer and director of the Reporting Person is set forth in Schedule I hereto. During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, any of its executive officers or directors has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is 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 items. ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS AND OTHER CONSIDERATION. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement (as defined and described in Item 4 below), approximately $1.4 billion of the aggregate merger consideration will be payable in cash and the remainder will be payable in shares of Washington Mutual common stock. The source of funds for the cash consideration will be Washington Mutual's working capital. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. On June 25, 2001, Washington Mutual announced that it had entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger with Dime, dated as of June 25, 2001 (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which Dime will merge with and into Washington Mutual (the "Merger"). Washington Mutual will continue as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, each Share will be converted into the right to receive merger consideration as provided for in the Merger Agreement. The aggregate consideration paid in the transaction will consist of approximately $1.4 billion in cash and approximately 92.3 million shares of Washington Mutual common stock, representing approximately 28.5% and 71.5%, respectively, of the current value of the aggregate merger consideration (not including merger consideration relating to Dime employee stock options initially valued at $177 million). To the extent that the number of Shares outstanding changes as a result of, for example, the exercise of options, the aggregate number of shares of Washington Mutual common stock to be issued will change accordingly but the aggregate cash consideration to be paid will not change. (Page 3 of 11 Pages) 4 The transaction initially values the Shares at $40.84 per share, based on a 1.05 exchange ratio and a price of $38.89 per Washington Mutual common share, the average five-day price for Washington Mutual common shares prior to announcement of the Merger. If the average closing stock price of Washington Mutual common stock for the ten consecutive full trading days ending on the tenth business day prior to the closing date (the "Measurement Period") were to equal $38.89 per share, Dime stockholders could choose to receive, for each Share they own, either Washington Mutual common shares at a 1.05 exchange ratio or $40.84 per share in cash, subject to proration. If, however, the average Washington Mutual common stock price during the Measurement Period does not equal $38.89, the exchange ratio and the per share value of the cash consideration will each be adjusted so that the per share value of the stock consideration and the per share value of the cash consideration remain equal. The value of the merger consideration per Share will equal the sum of - an amount equal to (i) the average of the closing stock prices for Washington Mutual's common stock during the Measurement Period times (ii) 1.05 times (iii) 0.715341 (which represents the stock portion of the aggregate merger consideration), plus - $40.8366 times 0.284659 (which represents the cash portion of the aggregate merger consideration). The exchange ratio per Share will be equal to the per share consideration value determined pursuant to the preceding sentence divided by the average Washington Mutual common stock price during the Measurement Period. The outcome of the per share consideration adjustment and the cash/stock election procedure will not change the aggregate number of Washington Mutual shares (except as noted above to the extent that there is a change in the number of Shares outstanding) or the aggregate amount of cash to be paid by Washington Mutual. The Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is to be accounted for as a purchase. Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary conditions. A copy of the Merger Agreement is included herein as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated herein by reference. In connection with the Merger Agreement, Washington Mutual and Warburg, Pincus Equity Partners, L.P., Warburg, Pincus Netherlands Equity Partners I, C.V., Warburg, Pincus Netherlands Equity Partners II, C.V. and Warburg, Pincus Netherlands Equity Partners III, C.V. (collectively, "Warburg") entered into a Warrant Purchase and Voting Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2001 (the "Voting/Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which Warburg agreed, among other things, (i) to vote all of the Shares owned beneficially or held of record by it in favor of the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement, the Merger and any other action required in furtherance thereof, (ii) to vote against any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Dime contained in the Merger Agreement or of Warburg contained in the Voting/Purchase Agreement and (iii) to vote against any acquisition proposal or any other action, agreement or transaction that is intended to, or could reasonably be expected to, materially impede, interfere or be inconsistent with, delay, postpone, discourage or materially and adversely affect the Merger or the Voting/Purchase Agreement. In addition, Warburg has agreed to sell to Washington Mutual, concurrently with the closing of the Merger, the warrants held by it to purchase Shares, for the right to receive the same consideration that would have been available to Warburg in the Merger if it had owned 7,903,073 Shares (in lieu of the warrants), and not to otherwise sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of any Shares. Either Washington Mutual or Warburg may terminate the Voting/Purchase Agreement on or after the date of the termination of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the Voting/Purchase Agreement is included herein as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated herein by reference. (Page 4 of 11 Pages) 5 Upon consummation of the Merger as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Shares will cease to be authorized for listing on the New York Stock Exchange and will become eligible for termination of registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. By virtue of the Voting/Purchase Agreement, Washington Mutual may be deemed to share with Warburg the power to vote the 13,607,664 Shares subject to the Voting/Purchase Agreement representing approximately 11.8% of the 115,010,263 Shares outstanding as of June 22, 2001, as represented by Dime in the Merger Agreement. Washington Mutual expressly disclaims any beneficial ownership of the Shares subject to the Voting/Purchase Agreement. Other than as set forth in this Schedule 13D and other than Shares in trust accounts, managed accounts and the like or Shares held in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, as of the date hereof (i) neither Washington Mutual nor, to the knowledge of Washington Mutual, any subsidiary or affiliate of Washington Mutual or any of Washington Mutual's executive officers or directors beneficially own any Shares and (ii) there have been no transactions in the Shares effected during the past 60 days by Washington Mutual nor, to the knowledge of Washington Mutual, by any subsidiary or affiliate of Washington Mutual or any of Washington Mutual's executive officers or directors. Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, neither the Reporting Person nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Person, any of the persons listed in Schedule I has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds of sale of, securities covered by this Schedule 13D. ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. The information set forth in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated herein by reference. Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, neither the Reporting Person nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Person, any of the persons listed on Schedule I is a party to any contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship with respect to any securities of the Issuer.
