This Amendment No. 75 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”), JPP II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“JPP II”), 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”), JPP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“JPP”), 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:

“On January 5, 2019, the Second Lien Borrowers elected to pay interest on the Second Lien Term Loan by increasing the principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loan. In connection with this election by the Second Lien Borrowers, the principal amount of the portion of the Second Lien Term Loan held by JPP and JPP II was increased accordingly, and no cash consideration was paid by either JPP or JPP II in connection with this increase to the principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loan. As a result of the foregoing, (i) JPP may acquire up to an additional 559,095 shares of Holdings Common Stock within 60 days upon the conversion of the Second Lien Term Loan into shares of Holdings Common Stock, and (ii) JPP II may acquire up to an additional 255,382 shares of Holdings Common Stock within 60 days upon the conversion of the Second Lien Term Loan into shares of Holdings Common Stock.”

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“On January 17, 2019, Transform Holdco entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among Transform Holdco, Holdings and certain subsidiaries of Holdings party thereto (Holdings, together with each of Holdings’ subsidiaries party thereto, the “Sellers”) to acquire substantially all of the go-forward retail footprint and other assets and component businesses of Holdings as a going concern (the “Going Concern Transaction”).

The Going Concern Transaction was determined to be a “Successful Bid” during an “Auction” (each, pursuant to the Bidding Procedures) that commenced on January 14, 2019 and concluded on January 17, 2019.

The Purchase Agreement provides for a total purchase price of approximately $5.2 billion, comprised of: $850 million in cash to be funded with the proceeds of a new $1.3 billion ABL Commitment; a credit bid of approximately $1.3 billion; the roll-over of (and release of the Debtors with respect to) approximately $621 million of senior indebtedness; the assumption of all of the outstanding liabilities of the SRC Entities, in the amount of approximately $592 million; $35 million in cash in consideration for the release and settlement of certain claims by Debtors; the assumption of up to $166 million of payment obligations with respect to goods ordered by the Sellers prior to the closing of the Going Concern Transaction (but as to which goods the Sellers have not yet taken delivery and title prior to closing); the assumption of up to $139 million of 503(b)(9) administrative priority claims; the obligation to reimburse the Sellers for up to $43 million of additional severance costs to be incurred by the Sellers; the assumption of all cure costs related to contracts to be assumed by Transform Holdco (estimated to be up to $180 million); the assumption of up to $134 million of property taxes with respect to the properties to be acquired by Transform Holdco; the obligation to pay up to $19 million in transfer taxes; the assumption of approximately $4 million in mechanics’ liens; up to $17 million in cash to purchase cash in store registers as of the closing of the Going Concern Transaction; and the assumption of approximately $1.1 billion of assumed liabilities with respect to certain protection agreements, gift cards and accrued points under the Shop Your Way program.

The Purchase Agreement provides that Transform Holdco will provide offers of ongoing employment to approximately 45,000 employees of Holdings, and through February 1, 2020, the end of the current fiscal year, provide salary continuation, substantially comparable benefits and reinstate Holdings’ prepetition severance program for all employees that accept their employment offer at close.

In connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, Transform Holdco has entered into a debt commitment with certain lenders with regard to the new ABL Commitment, an updated Rollover Commitment, an updated Real Estate Commitment and an updated Equity Commitment.

Transform Holdco’s and the Sellers’ obligations to consummate the Going Concern Transaction under the Purchase Agreement are subject to certain conditions contained therein, including, among other conditions, conditions relating to the accuracy of the parties’ representations and warranties made in the Purchase Agreement; the performance of the parties’ pre-closing covenants; the absence of a legal impediment to the closing of the Going Concern Transaction; the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act applicable to the Going Concern Transaction; the entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court approving the Going Concern Transaction; the Sellers owning at least $1.657 billion of certain inventory and receivables to be purchased by Buyer; and there being no more than $850 million outstanding under the DIP Credit Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and no more than $350 million outstanding under the Junior DIP Term Loan (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), exclusive of any accrued and unpaid interest thereunder.

The Purchase Agreement can be terminated by the Sellers or Transform Holdco if, among other things, (i) the Bankruptcy Court has not approved, and entered an order approving, the consummation of the Going Concern Transaction on or before February 8, 2019 (subject to Bankruptcy Court availability) or (ii) the closing of the Going Concern Transaction has not occurred by 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on February 19, 2019 (the “Outside Date”).

There can be no assurances that the Bankruptcy Court will approve the Debtors entry into the Purchase Agreement, that the conditions to Transform Holdco’s and the Sellers’ obligations to consummate the Going Concern Transaction under the Purchase Agreement will be satisfied prior to the Outside Date or that any of the transactions comprising the Going Concern Transaction will be consummated on the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement or at all.

The consummation of the Going Concern Transaction in accordance with the Purchase Agreement relates to or would result in the matters referred to in, without limitation, subparagraphs (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the Going Concern Transaction does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.86 and incorporated by reference herein. The Purchase Agreement is not intended to be a source of financial, business or operational information about Holdings or its subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties to the Purchase Agreement, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the parties to the Purchase Agreement that differ from those applicable to third parties. No third party should rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Holdings or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Holdings’ public reports. The Purchase Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding Holdings that is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the documents that Holdings files or has filed with the SEC.”

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.
