Preliminary Note.

Effective June 9, 2015, Seritage Growth Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Issuer”) commenced a subscription rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) whereby Sears Holdings Corporation (“Sears Holdings”) distributed to its stockholders one transferrable subscription right (each, a “Right”) for each share of common stock of Sears Holdings held as of the close of business on June 11, 2015. Each Right entitled the holder thereof to purchase one half of one Class A common share of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (each, a “Class A Share”), of the Issuer at a price of $29.58 per whole Class A Share.

In connection with the Rights Offering, Sears Holdings distributed Rights to Edward S. Lampert, ESL Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Partners”), SPE I Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“SPE I”), SPE Master I, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“SPE Master I”, and together with SPE I, the “SPEs”), CRK Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CRK LLC”), and ESL Institutional Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Institutional”). Subsequently, the SPEs, CRK LLC and Institutional distributed all the Rights they received in connection with the Rights Offering, pro rata to each of their respective partners/owners, including Mr. Lampert.

On June 26, 2015, in connection with the Rights Offering, Mr. Lampert and Partners entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Seritage Growth Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and the Issuer. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, each of Mr. Lampert and Partners had the right to exchange cash and Rights received pursuant to the Rights Offering that, if exercised, would result in Mr. Lampert and Partners receiving in excess of an aggregate of 3.2% of the Class A Shares, for limited partnership interests (“OP Units”) of the Operating Partnership and Class B common shares of beneficial interest of the Issuer, par value $0.01 per share (“Class B Shares”). The Class B Shares have, in the aggregate, 6.6% of the voting power of the Issuer as of the closing of the Rights Offering and are not entitled to dividends or distributions. The transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement allowed Mr. Lampert and Partners to purchase interests in the Issuer and the Operating Partnership in excess of the amounts they would otherwise be able to purchase in light of tax considerations, including the ownership limits set forth in the Issuer’s declaration of trust (the “Charter”), which are designed to protect the Issuer’s REIT status. This description of the Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 2, 2015, and is incorporated by reference herein.

In connection with the closing of the Rights Offering, the Reporting Persons acquired OP Units, which are privately placed securities of the Operating Partnership that are not registered under the Act. However, pursuant to the terms of the agreement of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership (the “OP Agreement”), the OP Units may be redeemable commencing July 7, 2016, at the option of the holder of such OP Units for a determinable amount in cash or, at the option of the Issuer, Class A Shares at the rate of one Class A Share for each OP Unit redeemed. The OP Units may not be redeemed for Class A Shares within 60 days, so none of the OP Units are beneficially owned as of the date hereof.

Item 1. Security and the Issuer.

This statement on Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D”) relates to both Class A Shares and Class B Shares (together, the “Common Shares”), of the Issuer. Though the Class B Shares are privately placed securities of a different class than Class A Shares, the holders of Class A Shares and Class B Shares vote together as a single class on all matters on which holders of Class A Shares are entitled to vote. The address of the principal executive office of the Issuer is located at 54 West 40^th Street, 10^th Floor, New York, NY 10018.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

(a) This Schedule 13D is being filed by 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. Partners, RBS, ESL and Mr. Lampert are collectively defined as the “Reporting Persons.”

Attached as Annex A hereto and incorporated herein by reference is a list containing the (a) name, (b) citizenship, (c) present principal occupation or employment and (d) the name, principal business address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted, of each director and executive officer of ESL (the “ESL Directors and Officers”). Other than the ESL Directors and Officers, there are no persons or corporations controlling or ultimately in control of ESL.

(b) The principal place of business of each of the Reporting Persons is 1170 Kane Concourse, Suite 200, Bay Harbor Islands, Florida 33154.

(c) The principal business of each of the Reporting Persons is purchasing, holding and selling securities for investment purposes. RBS is the general partner of Partners. ESL is the general partner of RBS. Mr. Lampert is the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Director of ESL. Mr. Lampert is also Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Sears Holdings and a Trustee of the Issuer. Each of the Reporting Persons may also serve as general partner or managing member of certain other entities engaged in the purchasing, holding and selling of securities for investment purposes.

(d)-(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been a party to a civil proceeding, in either case of the type specified in Items 2(d) or 2(e) of Schedule 13D.

(f) Partners, RBS and ESL are organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. Mr. Lampert is a United States citizen.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On July 7, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Rights Offering, Partners and Mr. Lampert exercised their Rights, and the over-subscription privileges associated with the Rights, for total cash consideration of $744,860,738 to acquire an aggregate of (i) 975,893 Class A Shares, (ii) 1,589,020 Class B Shares, and (iii) 24,176,327 OP Units. Partners used working capital to acquire the Class A Shares, Class B Shares and OP Units. Mr. Lampert used personal funds to acquire the Class A Shares, Class B Shares and OP Units.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

On July 7, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Rights Offering, Partners and Mr. Lampert exercised their Rights, and the over-subscription privileges associated with the Rights, to acquire an aggregate of (i) 975,893 Class A Shares, (ii) 1,589,020 Class B Shares, and (iii) 24,176,327 OP Units.

The 24,176,327 OP Units acquired by the Reporting Persons are privately placed securities of the Operating Partnership, and are not registered under the Act. However, pursuant to the terms of the OP Agreement, the OP Units may be redeemable commencing July 7, 2016, at the option of the holder of such OP Units for a determinable amount in cash or, at the option of the Issuer, Class A Shares at the rate of one Class A Share for each OP Unit redeemed. The OP Units may not be redeemed for Class A Shares within 60 days, so none of the OP Units are beneficially owned as of the date hereof.

The Charter provides for restrictions on the ownership and transfer of its common shares, including, subject to certain exemptions, prohibitions on any person actually or constructively owning more than a 9.8% in value or in number, whichever is more restrictive, of all outstanding shares of beneficial interest of the Issuer. While these restrictions in the Charter do not apply directly to ownership of OP Units, the OP Agreement restricts the holder of OP Units from requesting a redemption under the OP Agreement to the extent that an exchange for Class A Shares would cause such holder to violate the restrictions on ownership or transfer of the Issuer’s common shares set forth in the Charter. This description of both the Charter and the OP Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to Exhibits 99.3 and 99.5 hereto, and are incorporated by reference herein.

In connection with the closing of the Rights Offering, Mr. Lampert and Partners entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of July 7, 2015 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with the Issuer and, solely for purposes of Section 7.1 thereof, the Operating Partnership. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for, among other things, demand registration rights and piggyback registration rights for each of Mr. Lampert and Partners. The Issuer is also required to indemnify Mr. Lampert and/or Partners against losses suffered by either of them or certain other persons based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement or similar filing. This description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to Exhibit 99.4 hereto, and is incorporated by reference herein.

The Reporting Persons plan to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending upon each factor discussed below and each other factor (which may be unknown at this time) that is or may become relevant, the Reporting Persons plan to consider, among other things: (a) the acquisition by the Reporting Persons of additional securities of the Issuer, the disposition of securities of the Issuer or the exercise of convertible securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving

the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) changes in the present board of trustees or management of the Issuer; (e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer’s Charter or bylaws or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing any class of the Issuer’s securities to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above.

Mr. Lampert previously entered into a letter agreement with Partners (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) that restricts the purchases and sales by Mr. Lampert of certain securities of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement, Mr. Lampert generally is required to sell securities of the Issuer and purchase additional securities of the Issuer on a pro rata basis with the sales and purchases of securities of the Issuer made by Partners, and generally must make such sales and purchases on substantially the same terms and conditions as Partners (subject to certain legal, tax, accounting or regulatory considerations). Mr. Lampert is also restricted from certain sales of securities of the Issuer or purchases of additional securities of the Issuer except in accordance with the Lock-Up Agreement. The foregoing summary of the Lock-Up Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Lock-Up Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Any open market or privately negotiated purchases or sales, acquisition recommendations or proposals or other transactions concerning the Issuer may be made at any time without prior notice. Any alternative may depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices of the securities, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer and general industry conditions, the availability, form and terms of financing, other investment and business opportunities, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors. Although the foregoing reflects plans and proposals presently contemplated by each Reporting Person with respect to the Issuer, the foregoing is subject to change at any time and dependent upon contingencies and assumed and speculative conditions, and there can be no assurance that any of the actions set forth above will be taken.

Except to the extent that the foregoing may be deemed to be a plan or proposal, none of the Reporting Persons currently has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions specified in clause (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Depending upon the foregoing factors and to the extent deemed advisable in light of their general investment policies, or other factors, the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or the Common Shares, or any other actions that could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The foregoing is subject to change at any time, and there can be no assurance that any of the Reporting Persons will take any of the actions set forth above.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(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.

As of July 17, 2015, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Shares of the Issuer set forth in the table below.

Re: Lock-Up Agreement

This letter agreement (this “Agreement”) sets out terms and conditions upon which the securities, cash and cash equivalents set forth on the books and records of ESL Partners, L.P. (“ESL Partners”) shall be distributed by ESL Partners to the undersigned no later than July 30, 2010 (any such date of distribution, the “Distribution Date”). The undersigned hereby agrees that, for so long as the undersigned, directly or indirectly, holds the Lock-Up Securities (the “Lockup Period”), the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, pledge, offer or contract to sell, sell, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any Lock-Up Securities (“Dispose”, and “Disposition” shall have a correlative meaning) or use Cash except pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 1. Additional Definitions.

“Affiliate” shall mean a Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person.

“Cash” shall mean the amount of cash and cash equivalents distributed by ESL Partners to the undersigned on the Distribution Date, as reduced by the expenditure of such cash and cash equivalents pursuant to this Agreement.

“Lock-Up Issuer” shall mean a Person that has issued any Lock-Up Securities.

“Lock-Up Securities” shall mean the securities distributed by ESL Partners to the undersigned on the Distribution Date, together with any additional securities purchased by the undersigned with Cash pursuant to this Agreement.

“Person” shall be construed broadly and shall include, without limitation, an individual, a partnership, a limited liability company, a corporation, an association, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, an unincorporated organization and a governmental entity or any department, agency or political subdivision thereof.

“Purchase” shall mean to offer or contract to purchase, purchase or otherwise acquire for value.

Section 2. Equal Treatment Upon Purchase or Disposition.

(i) In the event that ESL Partners desires to effect any Disposition of Lock-Up Securities to, or Purchase of additional securities from, a Lock-Up Issuer or any other third party, as applicable, (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Affiliate of ESL Partners) in any transaction (a “Disposition/Purchase Transaction”), ESL Partners shall give prior written notice to the undersigned.

(ii) In any Disposition/Purchase Transaction, subject to the provisions of Section 2(iii), the undersigned and ESL Partners shall Dispose of their respective proportionate share of Lock-Up Securities, or use their respective proportionate share of Cash to Purchase additional securities, including securities of a Lock-Up Issuer, on substantially the same terms and conditions (but in any event at the same price per share and form of consideration), subject to legal, tax, accounting or regulatory considerations; provided that (i) any differences in economic terms and conditions or timing of Disposition/Purchase Transaction resulting from such considerations shall not have an adverse affect on ESL Partners and (ii) prior notice of the Disposition/Purchase Transaction shall be given to the limited partners of ESL Partners to the extent that any Disposition/Purchase Transaction will not be completed by the undersigned at the same time and upon the same terms due to legal, tax, accounting or regulatory consideration, as such transaction is completed by ESL Partners.

(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, and subject to applicable securities laws and regulations, the undersigned may Dispose of any Lock-Up Securities or use Cash in the same manner and on the same terms and conditions to which the undersigned would have been entitled had the Lock-Up Securities or Cash, as applicable, been held directly or indirectly by the undersigned through ESL Partners and then had been distributed, directly or indirectly, to the undersigned pursuant to the terms of the Sixth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of ESL Partners, as amended from time to time (the “Partnership Agreement”) (but, for purposes of this Section 2(iii), not incorporating the terms of Amendment No. 4 to the Partnership Agreement), including, without limitation, any required notices thereunder.

Section 3. No Dispositions or Purchases. Except as set forth in Section 2(iii), without the prior written consent of ESL Partners, the undersigned shall not make any Disposition of Lock-Up Securities or use Cash to make any Purchase, whether directly or indirectly. Any Disposition or Purchase, or attempted Disposition or Purchase, in breach of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and of no effect.

Section 4. Use of Cash. Pursuant to the terms of Section 2(ii) and Section 3, and except as set forth in Section 2(iii), the undersigned shall use the Cash received on the Distribution Date to invest in additional securities, including securities of the Lock-Up Issuer, as ESL Partners buys additional securities or, at the discretion of the General Partner of ESL Partners, shall use the Cash to reinvest such proceeds into ESL Partners in the event that any limited partner of ESL Partners seeks to redeem or transfer its limited partnership interests in ESL Partners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may use Cash to pay taxes, if any, resulting from the distribution of Lock-Up Securities and Cash to the undersigned. Any use of Cash in breach of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and of no effect.
