(“1995”), Gazit First Generation LLC (“First Generation”), MGN America, LLC (“MGN-A”), Gazit Maple, Inc. (“GMI”), Gazit America, Inc. (“GAA”), Silver Maple (2001), Inc. (“Silver Maple”) and Ficus, Inc. (“Ficus”) (collectively, the “Gazit Group,” “we,” “us” or the “Reporting Persons”) filed on October 10, 2001 (the “Initial 13D”) relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 each (“Shares”) of Equity One, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Issuer” or “Equity One”). The Initial 13D, together with Amendment No. 1 to the Initial 13D, filed February 26, 2003, Amendment No. 2 to the Initial 13D, filed July 31, 2007, Amendment No. 3 to the Initial 13D, filed August 8, 2007, Amendment No. 4 to the Initial 13D, filed January 18, 2008, Amendment No. 5 to the Initial 13D, filed July 8, 2008, Amendment No. 6 to the Initial 13D, filed October 14, 2008, Amendment No. 7 to the Initial 13D, filed October 24, 2008, Amendment No. 8 to the Initial 13D, filed November 4, 2008, Amendment No. 9 to the Initial 13D, filed November 13, 2008, Amendment No. 10 to the Initial 13D, filed April 27, 2009, Amendment No. 11 to the Initial 13D, filed August 24, 2009, Amendment No. 12 to the Initial 13D, filed March 29, 2010, Amendment No. 13 to the Initial 13D, filed June 7, 2010, Amendment No. 14 to the Initial 13D, filed December 23, 2010, Amendment No. 15 to the Initial 13D, filed on January 18, 2011, Amendment No. 16 to the Initial 13D, filed on April 4, 2011, Amendment No. 17 to the Initial 13D, filed on June 2, 2011, Amendment No. 18 to the Initial 13D, filed on August 26, 2011, and this Amendment No. 19 shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Schedule 13D.”


CUSIP No. 294752100       Page 14

 

This Amendment No. 19 reflects the following changes:

 

   

The addition of Dor J. Segal and Erica Ottosson (Mr. Segal’s spouse) as Reporting Persons and as members of the group.

 

   

The removal of GMI as a Reporting Person and as a member of the group following a transaction which closed on August 8, 2012, pursuant to which GMI merged with and into GAA (the “GAA Privatization Transaction”).

 

   

The acquisition by Gazit in the GAA Privatization Transaction of indirect ownership of the 6,311,114 outstanding common shares of GAA which it did not already indirectly own. As a result of the Gazit America Transaction, Gazit indirectly owns 100% of the 23,345,088 outstanding common shares of GAA. The Reporting Persons had previously reported beneficial ownership of 100% of the 23,345,088 outstanding common shares of GAA because GAA is indirectly controlled by Gazit. GAA wholly owns Ficus, which directly owns 5,386,857 shares of the Issuer’s common stock, and Silver Maple, which directly owns 8,893,213 shares of the Issuer’s common stock. The Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s common stock did not change as a result of the GAA Privatization Transaction. Nevertheless, The Reporting Persons pecuniary interest in the Issuer’s common stock held by Ficus and Silver Maple increased from 73.1% to 100%

 

   

MGN-A’s purchase of 500,000 Equity One Shares on August 14, 2012 in a private placement.

Gazit is traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) under the ticker symbol “GLOB” and on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker symbol “GZT”. Approximately 56.21% of Gazit’s ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) are owned directly or indirectly by Norstar Holdings Inc. (“Norstar”), a publicly traded company listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange under the ticker “NSTR”. Chaim Katzman, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Gazit, controls 48.6% of the ordinary shares of Norstar (including 19.3% of its ordinary shares held by First U.S. Financial, LLC, or FUF) and is Chairman of the Board of Norstar. Dor J. Segal, Executive Vice-Chairman of the Issuer and a Director in Norstar Holdings Inc., holds 9.6% of the outstanding shares of Norstar and Erica Ottosson (wife of Mr. Segal) holds 6.4% of the outstanding shares of Norstar. Mr. Katzman was granted an irrevocable proxy by FUF to vote, at his discretion, the shares of Norstar held by FUF. FUF is owned by Mr. Katzman, including through private entities owned by Mr. Katzman and members of his family, both directly and indirectly (51.4%); Erica Ottosson (22.6%); and Martin Klein (26%). In addition, Mr. Katzman was granted an irrevocable proxy by Erica Ottosson to vote her shares of FUF stock with respect to all matters at FUF shareholder meetings. On January 30, 2013, Mr. Katzman, together with related parties (collectively, the “Katzman Group”) and Mr. Segal, Ms. Ottosson, together with related parties (collectively, the “Segal Group”), entered into a shareholders agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”), with respect to their outstanding shares in Norstar (see Item 6 below). Accordingly, even though Gazit’s board of directors includes a majority of independent directors, Mr. Katzman, Mr. Segal, and Ms. Ottosson may be deemed to control Gazit. The public stockholders of Gazit own approximately 43% of the Ordinary Shares.

Exhibit 2

STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT

THIS STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of January 30, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), by and among (A) Mr. Chaim Katzman, from 3872NE 199ter Aventure FL 33180 (on his behalf and/or on behalf of private entities owned by him and/or any of his immediate family members and/or entities or trusts acting for the benefit of him and/or of any of his immediate family members) (“Katzman”) and First US Financial LLC, a Nevada corporation from with Adv. Alan Marcus, Aventura Title Insurance Corporation, Aventura Corporate Center, 20803 Biscayne Boulevard, Suite 301, Aventura Florida 33180, USA owned by Katzman, Ottoson (as defined below) and Mr. Martin Klein and controlled by Katzman (“FUF”; Katzman and FUF collectively referred to herein as the “Katzman Group”); (B) Mr. Dori Segal, from 85 Hanna Avenue, Suite 400, Toronto ,ON, M6K 3S3, Canada , (on his behalf and/or on behalf of private entities owned by him and/or any of his immediate family members and/or entities or trusts acting for the benefit of him and/or of any of his immediate family members) (“Segal”) and Mrs. Erica Ottoson, from 85 Hanna Avenue, Suite 400, Toronto ,ON, M6K 3S3, Canada, (on her behalf and/or on behalf of private entities owned by her and/or any of her immediate family members and/or entities or trusts acting for the benefit of her and/or of any of her immediate family members) (“Ottoson”; Segal and Ottoson collectively referred to as “Segal Group”). Katzman Group and Segal Group are collectively referred to herein as “Parties” or the “Stockholders” and each individually as a “Party” or as a “Stockholder.” Capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 6 hereof.

Whereas Katzman Group is the controlling shareholder of Norstar Holdings Inc. a Panamanian corporation, which securities are listed for trading on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange (“Norstar” or the “Company”); and

Whereas each of Segal and Ottoson are Principal Shareholders (as such term is defined under the Israeli Securities Law 5728-1968) of Norstar; and

Whereas in light of, among other things, recent regulatory changes, including the proposed law to Promote Competition and Reduce Concentration, 2012, with its expected implications on Norstar and the Stockholders, pursuant to its current holdings structure, the Parties hereto wish to enter into a Stockholders Agreement and accept the rights and obligations created pursuant hereto in connection with their holdings in Norstar as of the Effective Date;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

 

  1. Board of Directors:

 

  (a) The Parties hereto agree that for as long as this agreement shall remain in full force and effect, the Parties shall exercise their voting power in Norstar in a manner that the Board of Directors of the Company shall be comprised of a majority of “Independent Directors” LOGO , as such term is defined in the Israeli Companies Law (the “Independent Directors”), such majority to include the External Directors - “Dachazim” - nominated in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law which are applicable to Norstar (the “External Directors”). The Parties undertake that the Independent Directors so appointed, other than the External Directors, shall not be Israeli Residents.


  (b) Each member of the Katzman Group will vote all of its Stockholder Shares and any other voting securities of Norstar over which it has voting control for the election to Norstar’s board of directors (“Board”) of two directors designated by the Segal Group (the “Segal Group Directors’’), provided that (i) one of such designees shall be an Independent Director, and (ii) for as long as Chaim Katzman is alive and has not been declared “legally incompetent” by any relevant court in the United States, such designee for Independent Director shall be reasonably acceptable to Chaim Katzman and shall have all required qualifications under any applicable law. In the event that Chaim Katzman determines that any such designee is not acceptable to it, Chaim Katzman shall notify Segal Group in writing of such determination, including the basis therefore, and Segal Group shall be entitled to designate a replacement nominee who shall be subject to approval by Chaim Katzman as provided in this Section 1(b).

 

  (c) Each member of the Segal Group will vote all of its Stockholder Shares and any other voting securities of Norstar over which it has voting control for nominees to the Board of Directors as directed in writing by a representative of the Katzman Group, including External Directors (and shall vote against any other nominee to the Board), subject to the provisions of Section 1(a).

 

  (d) At the date hereof, Norstar’s Board of Directors is made up of eight members, of which three members are Independent Directors, and shall be deemed appointed by the Katzman Group. The Segal Group shall be entitled to appoint its Independent Director designee at any time as the ninth Board member, in accordance with the provisions of Norstar’s Articles of Association.

 

  2. Tag-Along Rights.

 

  (a) If any member (in this Section 2, the “Selling Stockholder”) of the Katzman Group or any member of the Segal Group proposes to sell, other than pursuant to an open-market transaction or a de minimis transaction (each involving less than 2% of Norstar’s outstanding stock per calendar quarter), any of its Stockholder Shares, it may only make such sale after complying with the provisions of this Section 22. First, the Selling Stockholder shall give to each member of the other group (the “Offeree”) a notice (an “Offer Notice”) allowing each member of the other group to participate, with respect to a number of Stockholder Shares equal to the Tag-Along Amount (as defined in Section 2(b) below), in such sale by the Selling Stockholder, and for the same per share consideration. The Offer Notice shall specify the following information: (i) the number of shares that the Selling Stockholder proposes to sell or transfer (the “Tag Along Shares”) and the Tag-Along Amount (as defined in section 2(b) below); and (ii) the price that the Selling Stockholder will receive in respect of the Tag Along Shares, which shall be stated in cash, and the requested terms of payment thereof; (iii) the proposed date for sale of the Tag Along Shares; and (iv) the identity of the proposed third party purchaser. The Offerees shall have the right for a period of 10 Days after the Offer Notice is given (the “Acceptance Period”), to accept such offer in whole or in part, exercisable by delivering a written notice (the “Acceptance Notice”) to the Selling Stockholder within the Acceptance Period, stating therein the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Offerees to the proposed transferee, provided however that the number of Common Shares that the Offerees shall be entitled to sell shall not be greater than the Tag Along Amount (as defined in section 2(b) below). Prior to the earlier of (i) the end of the Acceptance Period or (ii) the acceptance or rejection of the Selling Stockholder’s offer, as the case may be, by the Offerees, the Selling Stockholder shall not complete any sale of shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the aforesaid provisions, in the event that the Selling Stockholder is a member of the Segal Group, and any member of the Katzman Group decides to exercise the Tag Along Rights granted hereunder, and such member is still subject to the Hapoalim Tag Along Agreement (as defined below in Section 2(b), then the periods of time set forth above shall be deemed amended to accommodate the Hapoalim Tag Along Agreement.

 

-2-


  (b) For purposes of this Section 2, the “Tag-Along Amount” shall mean a number of Stockholder Shares determined (i) on a pro-rata basis based upon the Katzman Group’s and the Segal Group respective relative ownership of Stockholder Shares vis-a-vis one another (the “Tag Along Ratio”), or (ii) in the event that Tarshish – Holdings and Investments Hapoalim Ltd. (“Hapoalim”) decide to exercise the tag along rights granted to them in respect of Norstar’s shares by Katzman and FUF pursuant to that certain agreement dated July 17, 2011 (the “Hapoalim Tag Along Agreement”), then the Tag Along Amount shall be calculated by applying the Tag Along Ratio to the number of Tag Along Shares to be sold by the Katzman Group after deducting there from the number of Stockholder Shares to be sold by Hapoalim after exercising their Tag Along rights.

 

  (c) In the event that an Offeree elects to participate in the sale set forth in the Offer Notice by delivering an Acceptance Notice during the Acceptance Period, then for a period of 120 days following the Acceptance Period the Selling Stockholder may sell its Stockholder Shares for consideration not less than 95% of the consideration stated in the Offer Notice, and on other terms no less favorable to the Selling Stockholder than those set forth in the Offer Notice; provided that the transferee shall simultaneously purchase the number of shares of Common Stock as calculated above from accepting Offerees, as the case may be.
