(1) Includes 4,808,465 shares of Holdings Common Stock that may be acquired by a reporting person within 60 days upon the exercise of Warrants to purchase shares of Holdings Common Stock from Holdings.
(2) Includes 6,328,688 shares of Holdings Common Stock that may be acquired by the reporting person within 60 days upon the exercise of Warrants to purchase shares of Holdings Common Stock from Holdings.
(3) Based upon 107,265,571 shares of Holdings Common Stock outstanding as of May 19, 2017, as disclosed in Holdings’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended April 29, 2017, that was filed by Holdings with the SEC on May 25, 2017, and an aggregate of 11,137,153 shares of Holdings Common Stock that may be acquired by certain of the reporting persons within 60 days upon the exercise of Warrants to purchase shares of Holdings Common Stock.


This Amendment No. 55 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) relates to common shares, par value $0.01 per share (the “Holdings Common Stock”), of Sears Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”). This Amendment amends the Schedule 13D, as previously amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by 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”), 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. Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment, all previous Items are unchanged. Capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D, as previously amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

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

Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“In a grant of shares of Holdings Common Stock by Holdings on July 31, 2017, pursuant to the Extension Letter between Holdings and Mr. Lampert, Mr. Lampert acquired an additional 50,539 shares of Holdings Common Stock. Mr. Lampert received the shares of Holdings Common Stock as consideration for serving as Chief Executive Officer and no cash consideration was paid by Mr. Lampert in connection with the receipt of such shares of Holdings Common Stock.”

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“On August 1, 2017, Holdings, through Sears Roebuck Acceptance Corp. and Kmart Corporation (collectively, the “LC Borrowers”), entities wholly-owned and controlled, directly or indirectly by Holdings, entered into an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement dated December 28, 2016 and amended March 2, 2017 (as amended by the Second Amendment and as may be further amended, restated, modified or supplemented and in effect from time to time, the “Amended LC Facility Agreement”) providing for the LC Facility from JPP, LLC and JPP II, LLC (collectively, the “LC Lenders”), with the Issuing Bank serving as administrative agent and issuing bank.

The Second Amendment, among other things, extends the maturity of the $271 million committed under the existing LC Facility from its original maturity date of December 28, 2017 through December 28, 2018 and eliminates the unused portion of the facility. The Second Amendment also increases the pricing under the LC Facility and provides for the release of all real estate collateral that secured the existing facility. The LC Facility is guaranteed by the same subsidiaries of Holdings that guarantee the obligations under the Credit Agreement, and is secured by substantially the same collateral as the Credit Agreement. The Amended LC Facility Agreement contains a borrowing base calculation, pursuant to which the LC Borrowers are required to cash collateralize the LC Facility if the aggregate obligations under the Credit Agreement and Amended LC Facility Agreement exceed the Modified Borrowing Base, as defined in the Amended LC Facility Agreement as of the end of any calendar month. To secure their obligation to participate in letters of credit issued under the LC Facility, the LC Lenders are required to maintain the Lender Deposit.

The LC Borrowers are required to pay the LC Lenders an upfront fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate amount of the Lender Deposit. In addition, the LC Borrowers are required to pay a commitment fee on the average daily amount of the Lender Deposit (as such amount may be increased or decreased from time to time), as well as certain other fees. In the event of reductions of the commitments under the LC Facility or a termination of the LC Facility prior to the six month anniversary of the effective date of the Second Amendment, under certain circumstances the LC Borrowers will be required to pay an early reduction/termination fee equal to the commitment fee that would have accrued with respect to the reduced or terminated commitments from the date of reduction or termination until the six month anniversary.


The Amended LC Facility Agreement includes certain representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and other undertakings, which are subject to important qualifications and limitations set forth in the Amended LC Facility Agreement. The Amended LC Facility Agreement also contains certain events of default, including (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, material inaccuracy of representation or warranty, and bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings. If an event of default occurs, the LC Lenders may terminate all or any portion of the commitments under the LC Facility, require the LC Borrowers to cash collateralize the LC Facility and/or exercise any rights they might have under any of the related facility documents (including against the collateral), subject to certain limitations.

The foregoing description of the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendment to Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Facility filed as Exhibit 99.43 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

The LC Facility permits the LC Lenders to syndicate or participate all or a portion of their commitments under the facility to other lenders under certain circumstances, and the LC Lenders expect that over fifty percent (50%) of their portion of the LC Facility will be syndicated to one or more third parties pursuant to an assignment and acceptance agreement to be entered into by the LC Lenders, as assignor, and each such third party, as assignee. None of the LC Lenders will receive any syndication fee or compensation in connection with such syndication of the LC Facility. The Form of Assignment and Acceptance Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.44 and incorporated by reference herein.”

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“(a)-(b) Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this statement 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 statement.

Each Reporting Person may be deemed to be a member of a group with respect to Holdings or securities of Holdings for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act. Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this statement 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 Holdings or otherwise with respect to Holdings or any securities of Holdings or (ii) a member of any syndicate or group with respect to Holdings or any securities of Holdings.
