Explanatory Note: This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Schedule 13D of Capital Shopping Centres Group PLC (“Parent”), Liberty International Holdings Limited (“LIH”) and CSC Ventures Limited (“LIH Sub”) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) filed on January 14, 2011 (the “Initial 13D”), relates to the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of Equity One, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Issuer”). The Initial 13D, together with this Amendment shall collectively be referred to herein as the “Statement.”
This Amendment reflects the following changes:
1. The conversion of the one share of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer, par value $0.01 per share, into 10,000 shares of Common Stock.
2. The reduction of the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the Common Stock below 5% and corresponding termination of the Reporting Persons’ duty to file Schedule 13D reports or amendments thereto.
3. An amendment to the Equityholders Agreement (as defined in the Initial 13D).
Item 2. Identity and Background.
Schedule A to Item 2 is amended and restated as set forth in such Schedule A.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following after the disclosure in the Initial 13D:
On June 29, 2011, LIH Sub granted an irrevocable proxy (the “Proxy”) to vote its one share of Class A Common Stock to Liberty International Financial Services Limited. As a result of such grant, the share of Class A Common Stock was automatically converted, at a conversion price of $0 per share, into 10,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Prior to June 29, 2011, the Class A Common Stock would automatically convert into Common Stock upon, among other things, the entry by LIH, Parent, or a controlled affiliate of Parent, into any agreement (other than the Equityholders Agreement described in Item 4 herein) giving any person (other than Parent or LIH) the power to vote or direct the voting of the share of Class A Common Stock.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(a) - (b) The descriptions of the transactions and agreements set forth in Items 3 and 4 are incorporated by reference herein. The Reporting Persons beneficially own in the aggregate 4,060,606 shares of Common Stock, representing 3.5% of the Common Stock. Due to conversion of the share of Class A Common Stock described above and the corresponding change in the Reporting Persons’ voting power as a result thereof, the Class A LLC Shares owned by LIH are no longer deemed derivative securities of the Common Stock under Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power over the 4,060,606 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by LIH Sub.
(c) Neither the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any person identified in Schedule A, has effected any transaction in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the class of Common Stock on June 29, 2011.
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following after the disclosure in the Initial 13D:
The description in Item 3 of the Proxy granted by LIH Sub is incorporated by reference herein.
On September 16, 2011, the parties to the Equityholders Agreement, together with Gazit First Generation LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“First Generation”), executed an Amendment No. 1 to Equityholders Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”). The Amendment No. 1 provides that First Generation be added to the Equityholders Agreement as a party and member of Gazit Group. The Amendment No. 1 also amends Section 2.7 of the Equityholders Agreement to provide that the Gazit Voting Obligation (as defined in the Equityholders Agreement) shall only be applicable and obligate the Gazit Group to vote Common Stock for the LIH nominee up to an amount representing, in the aggregate, up to 45% of the total voting power entitled to vote at a stockholder meeting.
The foregoing descriptions of the Proxy and the Amendment No. 1 do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Proxy filed as Exhibit 7 hereto and incorporated by reference herein and the Amendment No. 1 filed as Exhibit 8 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 7. | Material to be Filed as Exhibits. |
Item 7 is amended to add the following documents as exhibits:
Exhibit Number | Exhibit Name |
Exhibit 7 | Irrevocable Proxy, dated June 29, 2011, granted by LIH Sub to Liberty International Financial Services Limited |
Exhibit 8 | Amendment No. 1 to Equityholders Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2011, by and among the Issuer, Parent, LIH, Gazit-Globe, Ltd., an Israeli corporation, MGN (USA) Inc., a Nevada corporation, Gazit (1995), Inc., a Nevada corporation, MGN America, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Silver Maple (2001), Inc., a Nevada corporation, Ficus, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Gazit First Generation LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.2 of the Issuer's Form 10-Q filed November 9, 2011) |
After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
