EXPLANATORY NOTE

This statement on Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D”) has been filed on a voluntary basis. Athens Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Athens Acquisition”), and Daniel Gilbert (“Mr. Gilbert”) disclaim current beneficial ownership of any securities of Greektown Superholdings, Inc. (the “Issuer”) except as provided on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D. As used in this Schedule 13D, the terms “beneficial ownership,” “beneficially own” and other derivations thereof shall mean beneficial ownership as set forth in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Schedule 13D relates to shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Issuer. The principal executive office of the Issuer is located at 555 East Lafayette, Detroit, Michigan, 48226.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by and on behalf of each of Athens Acquisition and Mr. Gilbert. Athens Acquisition and Mr. Gilbert are collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons.” The principal place of business of Athens Acquisition is 1086 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, Michigan 48226. Mr. Gilbert’s principal business address is 1050 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, Michigan 48226.

The principal business of Athens Acquisition is to invest in the equity securities of the Issuer. Mr. Gilbert currently serves as Chairman of Rock Ventures LLC. As the sole member of Athens Acquisition, Mr. Gilbert may be deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner of any securities beneficially owned by Athens Acquisition.

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.

Mr. Gilbert is a citizen of the United States of America.

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

On June 15, 2012, the Reporting Persons acquired 80,000 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer (the “Preferred Shares” or the “OTC Preferred Shares”), in an over-the-counter market transaction (the “June 15 Transaction”), for an aggregate purchase price of $5,760,000. The source of funds for the purchase of the Preferred Shares was the working capital of Athens Acquisition.

On December 20, 2012, Athens Acquisition and certain funds affiliated with Manulife Asset Management (US) LLC entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Manulife Agreement” or the “December 20 Agreement”), pursuant to which Athens Acquisition agreed to purchase the following securities of the Issuer: 42,220 shares of Series A-1 Common Stock; 623,406 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and warrants to acquire 202,511 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Manulife Shares”). The aggregate purchase price for the Manulife Shares is $78,132,330, or $90 per Manulife Share. The source of funds for the purchase of the Manulife Shares is expected to be the working capital of Athens Acquisition.

On January 25, 2013, Athens Acquisition and certain funds affiliated with OppenheimerFunds Inc. entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Oppenheimer Agreement” or the “January 25 Agreement”), pursuant to which Athens Acquisition agreed to purchase the following securities of the Issuer: 15,741 shares of Series A-1 Common Stock and 128,030 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Oppenheimer Shares”). The aggregate purchase price for the Oppenheimer Shares is $12,939,390, or $90 per Oppenheimer Share. The source of funds for the purchase of the Oppenheimer Shares is expected to be the working capital of Athens Acquisition.


On January 31, 2013, Athens Acquisition and certain funds affiliated with Solus Alternative Asset Management LP (collectively, the “Solus Sellers”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Solus Agreement” or the “January 31 Agreement”), pursuant to which Athens Acquisition agreed to purchase the following securities of the Issuer: 33,127 shares of Series A-1 Common Stock; 291,000 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock; 40,579 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock and warrants to acquire 186,657 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Solus Shares”). The aggregate purchase price for the Solus Shares is $49,622,670, or $90 per Solus Share. The source of funds for the purchase of the Solus Shares is expected to be the working capital of Athens Acquisition.

Consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Manulife Agreement, the Oppenheimer Agreement and the Solus Agreement are subject to material contingencies outside the Reporting Persons’ control including, but not limited to, approval by the Michigan Gaming Control Board (the “MGCB”). Upon satisfaction of current material contingencies outside the Reporting Persons’ control, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership representing 76.8% of the voting power of all securities of the Issuer.

The Manulife Agreement, the Oppenheimer Agreement and the Solus Agreement are sometimes collectively referred to below as the “Three Agreements” and are filed herewith as Exhibits 99.2, 99.3 and 99.4 attached hereto, respectively, and are hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The information set forth in Item 3 hereof is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons initially acquired the OTC Preferred Shares in the June 15 Transaction for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons have entered into the December 20 Agreement, the January 25 Agreement and the January 31 Agreement for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer. As noted in Item 3 above, the transactions contemplated by the December 20 Agreement, the January 25 Agreement and the January 31 Agreement have not been consummated and are subject to material conditions outside of the control of the Reporting Persons. Accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities which are the subject of such agreements. Upon consummation of the purchase contemplated by the December 20 Agreement, the Reporting Persons will have beneficial ownership of a total of 50.8% of the voting power of the Issuer. Upon simultaneous or subsequent consummation of the purchase contemplated by the January 25 Agreement, the Reporting Persons will have beneficial ownership of a total of 58.4% of the voting power of the Issuer. And, upon simultaneous or subsequent consummation of the purchase contemplated by the January 31 Agreement, the Reporting Persons will have beneficial ownership of a total of 76.8% of the voting power of the Issuer. The closing of the purchase transactions contemplated by the Three Agreements are not contingent upon one another.

In connection with the Reporting Persons’ intent to acquire control of the Issuer, on January 16, 2013, as previously disclosed by the Issuer, the Reporting Persons sent to the Issuer a letter with respect to the potential acquisition of the capital stock of the Issuer not owned by the Reporting Persons for a price of $81 per share. The Issuer responded with a letter dated January 28, 2013, and the Reporting Persons, by letter dated January 29, 2013, withdrew the proposal set forth in the January 16, 2013 letter. Copies of the January 16, 2013 letter, the January 28, 2013 letter and the January 29, 2013 letter are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.5, 99.6 and 99.7, respectively, and are hereby incorporated by reference. Although Athens Acquisition withdrew its January 16 letter, Athens Acquisition plans to control the Issuer through the above acquisition agreements.

In addition, on February 7, 2013, Athens Acquisition separately offered to acquire the shares of capital stock of the Issuer held by two additional shareholder groups, at a purchase price of $90 per share in cash, in each case subject to regulatory approval (the “Additional Acquisitions”). In addition, Athens Acquisition plans to discuss the situation with the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer.


In connection with the Reporting Person’s intention to acquire control of the Issuer, and the voting control that will be conferred upon the Reporting Persons pursuant to the Three Agreements (subject to regulatory approval), the Reporting Persons seek the cooperation of the Board of Directors and the Special Committee of the Issuer so that valuable time and resources are not wasted in connection with the Reporting Persons acquiring control of the Issuer, something that the Reporting Persons are confident will occur in due course upon achieving regulatory approval. In this connection, the Reporting Persons have significant concerns regarding the Issuer’s adoption of a “poison pill” Shareholder Rights Plan, previously announced by the Issuer on December 31, 2012, and as to which the Issuer announced on January 16, 2013 that the distribution/payment date thereunder would be postponed pending approval of the MGCB. The Reporting Persons have significant concerns as to the propriety of the adoption by the Board of Directors of the Issuer of such poison pill without MGCB approval.

In the event Athens Acquisition obtains approval of the MGCB to obtain voting control over the Issuer, Athens Acquisition currently intends to act by the written consent process or otherwise to elect a number of persons who will constitute a majority of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, subject to all applicable MGCB approvals.

Although the Reporting Persons are fully committed to pursuing the acquisition of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons reserve their right to, from time to time, review their investment in the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based upon such review, the Reporting Persons will take such actions in the future as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing from time to time, which may include further acquisitions of shares of Preferred Stock of the Issuer. In addition, the Reporting Persons may engage in communications with one or more shareholders, officers or directors of the Issuer, including discussions regarding the Issuer’s operations and strategic direction and ideas that, if effected, could result in, the acquisition of the Issuer by Athens Acquisition and/or among other things: (a) the acquisition by the Reporting Persons of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of 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 directors 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 certificate of incorporation 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.

Except to the extent of the above matters, 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. The Reporting Persons reserve the right, based on all relevant factors and subject to applicable law, at any time and from time to time, to review or reconsider their position, change their purpose, take other actions (including 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) or formulate and implement plans or proposals with respect to any of the foregoing, at all times subject to MGCB approval, if applicable.


Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) The aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities identified pursuant to Item 1 beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is stated in Items 11 and 13 on the cover pages hereto.

(b) Athens Acquisition has the sole power to vote and dispose of the Preferred Shares. Mr. Gilbert, as the sole member of Athens Acquisition, has the sole power to direct the vote and disposition of the Preferred Shares.

(c) The transactions described in Item 3 are incorporated herein by reference.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The descriptions of the Manulife Agreement, Oppenheimer Agreement and Solus Agreement, as set forth in Item 3, are incorporated herein by reference.

Except as otherwise described herein and in the Joint Filing Agreement furnished herewith and attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, no Reporting Person has any contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship with any person with respect to the shares of Preferred Stock or any other securities of the Issuer.

WHEREAS, each Seller desires to sell to Buyer, and Buyer desires to buy from each Seller, the Common Shares, the Preferred Shares and the Warrants (together with any rights, dividends or options related thereto, the “Purchased Securities”); and

WHEREAS, concurrently herewith the Buyer has deposited funds in the amount of $5 million (the “Escrowed Funds”) with a third party escrow agent as security for the performance of certain of Buyer’s obligations hereunder.

ATHENS ACQUISITION LLC

1086 Woodward Avenue

Detroit, Michigan 48226

January 16, 2013

Mr. George Boyer

Greektown Superholdings, Inc.

555 East Lafayette

Detroit, Michigan 48226

Dear Mr. Boyer:

I am writing on behalf of Athens Acquistion LLC (“Athens Acquisition”) to advise you of our intentions with regard to Greektown Superholdings, Inc. (the “Company”).

Athens Acquisition is an entity formed specifically to acquire an interest in the Company and is owned by Daniel Gilbert. Mr. Gilbert is the Chairman and Founder of Rock Ventures, which includes Quicken Loans Inc., the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers and Rock Gaming in addition to several other business interests.

The Greektown Casino-Hotel represents a unique intersection of our investment activity in casino gaming and Detroit real estate. Rock Gaming’s primary focus is to develop urban casinos that are integrated into city centers to complement and enhance regional tourism. We entered the gaming industry in 2009 by successfully leading an effort to bring full-service casinos to the State of Ohio. With joint venture partner, Caesars Entertainment, we have developed urban casino properties in Cleveland, Ohio (opened May 2012) and Cincinnati, Ohio (scheduled to open in March 2013). This joint venture is also developing a racino at Thistledown Racetrack outside Cleveland, and owns Turfway Park in Florence, Kentucky, near Cincinnati. In addition, we are developing an urban casino in Baltimore, Maryland (opening expected in 2014) with Caesars Entertainment.

We are also prominent advocates for downtown Detroit. Over the past three years we have acquired nearly 3 million square feet of commercial real estate, have committed hundreds of millions of dollars to redevelopment and moved more than 7,000 team members into Downtown Detroit.

Athens Acquisition acquired a small position in the Company in mid-2012. More recently, Athens Acquisition entered into an agreement to purchase a large block of the Company’s shares on December 20, 2012. Upon closing of this transaction, Athens Acquisition is expected to have majority voting control over the Company. Licensing materials for Mr. Gilbert and I have been submitted to the Michigan Gaming Control Board in conjunction with this acquisition. For clarity, Caesars Entertainment is not involved in this transaction.

Athens Acquisition is willing to acquire the capital stock held by all remaining Company shareholders for a purchase price of $81.00 per share. We believe this proposal provides significant value for the Company’s shareholders in light of recent similar transactions and comparable publicly trading companies and also represents a significant premium over recently reported trades in the Company’s shares.

We recognize that minority shareholder protection is an appropriate Board concern. Accordingly, shareholders who decline our proposal would be entitled to participate in any sale of the Company on terms that are no less favorable than those received by Athens Acquisition. Declining shareholders would also be entitled to the fair market value of their shares in the event that Athens Acquisition obtains ownership of the entire Company through a merger.

In exchange, we respectfully request that the Board cause the Company to terminate the Rights Agreement that it entered into on December 30, 2012 (the “Rights Agreement”). Although Athens Acquisition’s most recent agreement pre-dates the Rights Agreement, and Athens Acquisition is therefore deemed under the Rights Agreement to be the current beneficial owner of shares representing majority voting power, we feel that cooperation between Athens Acquisition and the Board is the best path toward a solution that benefits all stakeholders.

This letter, of course, does not set forth all of the terms and provisions of a transaction. The precise terms of any transaction contemplated herein remain subject to further discussion, and nothing herein should be construed as a binding offer or as imposing any binding obligation on the Company or Athens Acquisition. Please also note that this letter should not be deemed to prejudice whatever rights we may have at law or in equity with respect to the Company (including our rights as a shareholder of the Company).

Athens Acquisition is prepared to expend significant resources to enhance this asset that we recognize is of great importance to the community and local economy. In light of our team’s reputation as business operators, investors and advocates for downtown Detroit and our track record in urban casino development, we feel strongly that Athens Acquisition is the right purchaser for the Greektown Casino-Hotel.

Please contact me to discuss this proposal in greater detail. We look forward to working with you to provide a win for everyone involved.

Sincerely,

ATHENS ACQUISITION LLC

Attn: Matthew Cullen, President

 

  Re: Athens Acquisition LLC Proposal to Greektown Superholdings, Inc.

Dear Mr. Cullen:

We write in our capacity as members of the special committee (the “Special Committee”) of the board of directors of Greektown Superholdings, Inc. (“Greektown” or the “Company”) regarding your letter dated January 16, 2013 (the “Athens Letter”), wherein Athens Acquisition LLC (“Athens”) (i) indicated that it had entered into transactions to acquire majority voting control of Greektown and (ii) proposed to acquire the capital stock held by all remaining Greektown stockholders for a purchase price of $81.00 per share (the “Athens Offer”).

As you recognized in your letter, the protection of the Greektown stockholders who are not affiliated with Athens or its affiliates is of paramount importance to the Greektown board. Greektown’s directors have well-defined duties under Delaware law in connection with the receipt of an offer such as Athens’. As is customary for a Delaware corporation in these situations, and to assist the directors in fulfilling their legal duties, the board recently formed a Special Committee of independent directors to conduct a full review of the Athens Offer and Greektown’s strategic alternatives. In order to assist the Special Committee in its independent work, the Special Committee has retained Lazard Freres & Co. LLC to act as its financial advisor and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP to act as its special legal counsel.

Prior to forming a view on and making any recommendations with respect to the Athens Offer, the Special Committee and its advisors must first fully understand the Athens Offer so that they can assess its adequacy relative to Greektown’s value and any other strategic alternatives available to Greektown and its stockholders. To that end, the Special Committee requests that Athens work with the Special Committee and its advisors to provide additional information regarding the Athens Offer and its previously undisclosed transactions to acquire majority voting control of Greektown (as earlier requested in Greektown’s Chairman, George Boyer’s, letter to Athens. dated January 17, 2013). For example, the Company has three different classes of stock and multiple classes of warrants currently outstanding, each with different voting and economic rights, and the Special Committee would like to understand how the Athens Offer of “$81 per share” applies to each class of stock and, if applicable, the warrants. We will want to explore other issues as well.


Athens Acquisition LLC

Once the Special Committee receives and takes the time necessary to digest all of the relevant information, it plans (i) to form a view on the adequacy of the Athens proposal and on any strategic alternatives available to Greektown and its stockholders; (ii) to communicate to you our position; and (iii) to communicate with stockholders concerning our findings and recommendations. In that regard, the Special Committee urges Greektown stockholders not to take any action in relation to the Athens Offer until the Special Committee has had the opportunity to complete its work.

The Special Committee looks forward to engaging with Athens in a substantive discussion of its proposal as soon as possible.

Dear Darrell:

This letter is in response to the letter dated January 28, 2013 from the special committee of the Board of Directors of Greektown Superholdings, Inc. (the “Company”) to Athens Acquisition LLC (“Athens”).

The proposal contained in our letter of January 16, 2013 was not intended to be a tender offer. As discussed, this will confirm that Athens withdraws that proposal and the committee and the Board need not consider it.

We appreciate the opportunity to have met with you today.

Sincerely,
