Schedule 13D

Under the Securities and Exchange Commission Act of 1934

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer

 

This amendment to this Schedule 13D (“ Statement”) relates to the ordinary shares ($.001 par value) (“Ordinary Shares”) of Kerzner International Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of The Bahamas (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at Coral Towers, Paradise Island, The Bahamas.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background

 

(a) This Statement is filed by Caledonia Investments plc (“Caledonia” or the “Reporting Person”) as the beneficial owner of the 6,365,798 Ordinary Shares or 20.1% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares previously referenced on page 2. Cayzer Limited, formerly known as The Cayzer Trust Company Limited, (“Cayzer” or the “Additional Person”) may be deemed to be an indirect beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares given its direct holdings of 33.2% of the outstanding capital stock of Caledonia. Cayzer may be deemed to control Caledonia. The name change to “Cayzer Limited” was a result of a corporate restructuring transaction. Cayzer disclaims beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. Furthermore, the filing of this Statement should not be construed as an admission that any control relationship between Caledonia and Cayzer actually exists.

 

(b), (c) and (f) The principal business address for Caledonia and Cayzer is Cayzer House, 30 Buckingham Gate, London, England SW1E 6NN. Caledonia is an investment trust company and Cayzer is an investment holding company, both of which are organized under the laws of England and Wales. The names, principal occupation and addresses of the officers and directors of Caledonia and Cayzer are set forth on Schedule A hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. Certain additional information about the officers and directors of the Caledonia and Cayzer is set forth on Schedule A hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

(d) - (e) During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor the Additional Person, according to any of the Reporting Person’s knowledge, have been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or have been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Caledonia received the voting rights to an additional 557,505 Ordinary Shares following the transfer of the voting rights to these shares by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mangalitsa Limited (“Mangalitsa”), when Mangalitsa’s liquidation commenced in January 2003. Mangalitsa originally obtained voting rights to approximately 2,865,654 Ordinary Shares pursuant to the terms of the

 

4


Proxy Agreement dated July 3, 2001 (the “Proxy Agreement”). The voting rights, however, have been reduced over time to 557,505 Ordinary Shares and may continue to be reduced as provided in the Proxy Agreement. A copy of the Proxy Agreement was previously filed as Exhibit 99.B to this Statement.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

 

Mangalitsa’s transfer and assignment of the voting rights to 557,505 Ordinary Shares to Caledonia was to complete the transfer of Mangalitsa’s beneficial ownership over all of its holdings of Ordinary Shares, which began with the sale of 5,808,293 Ordinary Shares to Caledonia pursuant to the Agreement for Sale and Purchase, dated January 8, 2003. Caledonia may, from time to time, increase, reduce or dispose of its investment in the 5,808,293 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer that Caledonia has the sole voting and dispositive power over, depending on general economic conditions, economic conditions in the markets in which the Issuer operates, the market price of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, the availability of funds, borrowing costs, the strategic value of the investment to Caledonia and other considerations. An agreement providing for the disposition of a portion of Ordinary Shares held by Caledonia is discussed in Item 6 to this Statement. The voting rights to the 557,505 Ordinary Shares held by Caledonia may be reduced over time as provided in the Proxy Agreement.

 

Other than as described above, Caledonia currently has no plan or proposal which relates to or would result in any of the matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although Caledonia reserves the right to develop such plans or proposals consistent with applicable law.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer

 

(a) Caledonia is the beneficial owner of 6,365,798 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, which includes the sole right to vote and dispose of 5,808,293 Ordinary Shares and the sole voting rights (without dispositive power) for 557,505 Ordinary Shares received from Mangalitsa as discussed in Item 3 above. Caledonia’s beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares represents 20.1% of the total of 31,674,039 Ordinary Shares outstanding according to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC on July 16, 2004. By virtue of the relationships described in Item 2, Cayzer may be deemed to share indirect beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer owned directly by Caledonia. Cayzer disclaims all such beneficial ownership. Furthermore, the filing of this Statement should not be construed as an admission that any control relationship between Caledonia and Cayzer actually exists.

 

(b) Caledonia has the power to vote or direct the vote, and dispose or direct the disposal of the 5,808,293 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. Caledonia has the right to vote an additional 557,505 Ordinary Shares pursuant to the terms of the Proxy Agreement (defined below).

 

(c) Except as disclosed in Items 3, 4 and 6, there have been no transactions in the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer by Caledonia.

 

(d) Caledonia has the right to receive and the power to direct receipt of dividends from the 5,808,293 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer that it holds.

 

5


(e) Not applicable.

 

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

 

Caledonia entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 15, 2004 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Istithmar PJSC, a company organized under the laws of Dubai (“Istithmar”). The terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement provide for the sale by Caledonia of 1,300,000 Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $61,750,000.00 ($47.50 per share). The completion of the sale of the 1,300,000 Ordinary Shares is subject to satisfaction of certain terms and conditions by each of Caledonia and Istithmar. In addition, the sale of the 1,300,000 Ordinary Shares by Caledonia is conditioned upon the completion of the sale by the Issuer of the 3,000,000 Ordinary Shares. The investment by Istithmar in the Issuer remains subject to receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and there is no assurance whether these approvals will be forthcoming and these transactions consummated. If the sale by the Issuer of the 3,000,000 Ordinary Shares to Istithmar is not completed, then the Stock Purchase Agreement will automatically terminate. The discussion in this Item 6 should be read with the Stock Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit 99.E and the press release dated July 16, 2004 attached as Exhibit 99.F announcing the transactions above, which are incorporated herein.

Execution Copy

 

STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of July 15, 2004, by and between Caledonia Investments PLC, a company incorporated under the laws of England (the “Seller”), and Istithmar PJSC, a company organized under the laws of Dubai (the “Purchaser”).

 

A.     The Seller desires to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser desires to purchase from the Seller, 1,300,000 ordinary shares (the “Secondary Shares”) of Kerzner International Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of The Bahamas (the “Company”), par value $0.001 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $61,750,000 in cash ($47.50 per share).

 

B.     Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Purchaser has entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Company Purchase Agreement”) with the Company, providing for the purchase of 3,000,000 ordinary shares (the “Company Shares”) of the Company, par value $0.001 per share, at an aggregate purchase price of $153,750,000 in cash ($51.25 per share).

 

C.     At the Closing (as defined in Section 2 herein), the Company, the Purchaser, the Seller and certain other shareholders of the Company will execute and deliver a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.     Agreement to Sell and Purchase the Secondary Shares; Registration Rights. (a) At the Closing, the Seller will, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser will, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, purchase from the Seller, the Secondary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $61,750,000 in cash (the “Purchase Price”) ($47.50 per share).

 

(b)   Effective upon the Closing, (i) the Seller will assign its registration rights under the 2001 Agreement (as defined below) with respect to the Secondary Shares (other than rights pursuant to Section 5.3.2(b) (second) of the 2001 Agreement) in accordance with the terms of the 2001 Agreement, and (ii) in connection therewith, the Purchaser will be bound with respect to the Secondary Shares by Article V of the 2001 Agreement as it applies to the “Caledonia Group” (as such term is defined in the 2001 Agreement). The “2001 Agreement” means the Registration Rights and Governance Agreement, dated as of July 3, 2001, among the Company, Sun International Investments Limited, World Leisure Group Limited, Kersaf Investments Limited, Caledonia Investments PLC, Mangalitsa Limited, Cement Merchants SA, Rosegrove Limited, Royale Resorts Holdings Limited and Sun International Inc.


2.      Delivery of the Secondary Shares at the Closing.

 

2.1    The closing of the sale to, and purchase by, the Purchaser of the Secondary Shares (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, 825 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10019, at 10:00 a.m. on the later of July 21, 2004, or the second business day following the satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted, waiver by the parties entitled to the benefits thereof) of all the conditions set forth in this Agreement (the “Closing Date”). At the Closing, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser one or more certificates evidencing the Secondary Shares (or such instruments of transfer as are reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser to transfer to and vest in the Purchaser record and beneficial ownership of the Secondary Shares) against delivery to the Seller of the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account that the Seller will designate in writing to the Purchaser at least two business days prior to the Closing Date.

 

2.2     The Seller’s obligation to complete the purchase and sale of the Secondary Shares to the Purchaser at the Closing shall be subject to the following conditions, any one or more of which may be waived by the Seller: (a) receipt by the Seller of immediately available funds in the full amount of the Purchase Price; (b) the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser herein, in each case as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date as if restated on and as of the Closing Date; (c) the fulfillment by the Purchaser of each of its undertakings herein required to be fulfilled prior to the Closing; (d) receipt by the Seller of a certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Purchaser confirming the matters described in the preceding clauses (b) and (c); and (e) no Law (as hereinafter defined) or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Letter Agreement shall be in effect.

 

2.3     The Purchaser’s obligation to pay for the Secondary Shares shall be subject to the following conditions, any one or more of which may be waived by the Purchaser: (a) receipt by the Purchaser of the stock certificate(s), each duly executed for transfer or together with a stock power, evidencing the Secondary Shares (or such instruments of transfer as are reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser to transfer to and vest in the Purchaser record and beneficial ownership of the Secondary Shares); (b) the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties of the Seller herein, in each case as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date as if restated on and as of the Closing Date; (c) the fulfillment by the Seller of each of its undertakings herein required to be fulfilled prior to the Closing; (d) receipt by the Purchaser of a certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Seller confirming the matters described in the preceding clauses (b) and (c); (e) the concurrent consummation of the sale of the Company Shares in accordance with the terms of the Company Purchase Agreement; (f) the execution and delivery of the Letter Agreement by the Seller; and (g) no Law or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Letter Agreement shall be in effect; provided, however, that the condition in foregoing clause (e) may not be waived without the Company’s prior written consent.

 

3.     Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Seller. In consideration for the Purchaser’s agreement to enter into this Agreement and the Letter

 

2


Agreement and to purchase the Secondary Shares from the Seller, the Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Purchaser as follows:

 

3.1     Organization and Qualification. The Seller is a company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated and is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which qualification is required, except where failures to so qualify individually or in the aggregate would not be reasonably likely to prevent or materially delay fulfillment of the closing conditions set forth in Section 2.3 or the Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

3.2     Validity. The execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of this Agreement and the Letter Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the transactions contemplated to be consummated at or promptly following the Closing under the Letter Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Seller. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Seller and, assuming the valid execution and delivery thereof by the Purchaser constitutes, and the Letter Agreement, when duly executed and delivered by the Seller and, assuming valid execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

 

3.3     Private Offering. None of the Seller, its subsidiaries or their representatives has sold or offered any security of the Company to any person under circumstances that would cause the sale of the Secondary Shares, as contemplated by this Agreement, to be subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). None of the Seller, its subsidiaries or their representatives will offer the Secondary Shares or any part thereof or any similar securities for sale to, or solicit any offer to acquire any of the same from, anyone so as to make the sale of the Secondary Shares subject to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Assuming the representations of Purchaser contained in Section 4.3 and Section 4.4 are true and correct, the sale and delivery of the Secondary Shares hereunder are exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

3.4     The Secondary Shares. The Seller is the record and beneficial owner of the Secondary Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims and at the Closing will duly indorse the Secondary Shares in blank, and upon sale and delivery of, and payment for, the Secondary Shares as provided for herein, the Purchaser will own the Secondary Shares free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims, other than those arising from acts of the Purchaser or its affiliates. Other than this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the Company Purchase Agreement) and Article V of the 2001 Agreement, the Secondary Shares are not subject to any voting trust agreement or other contract that will apply to the Secondary Shares following the transactions contemplated hereby, including any such contract restricting or otherwise relating to the voting, dividend rights or disposition of the Secondary Shares. Other than the payment of the New York State stock transfer tax, no stock transfer taxes are due as a result of the sale of the Secondary Shares. The

Secondary Shares constitute “Registrable Securities” as such term is defined in the 2001 Agreement.

 

4.       Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Purchaser. The Purchaser represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Seller as follows:

 

4.1     Organization. The Purchaser is a company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Dubai and is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which qualification is required, except where failures to so qualify individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to prevent or materially delay fulfillment of the closing conditions set forth in Section 2.2 or the Purchaser’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Letter Agreement.

 

4.2     Validity. The execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the Letter Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the transactions contemplated to be consummated at or promptly following the Closing under the Letter Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Purchaser. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and, assuming the valid execution and delivery thereof by the Seller, constitutes, and the Letter Agreement, when duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and, assuming valid execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

 

4.3     Ability to Protect Its Own Interests and Bear Economic Risks. By reason of the business and financial experience of its management, the Purchaser has the capacity to evaluate the risks and merits of, and make an informed decision with regard to, an investment in the Company and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Secondary Shares, and has an adequate income independent of any income produced from an investment in the Secondary Shares and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of all of its investment in the Secondary Shares without economic hardship if such a loss should occur. The Purchaser recognizes that an investment in the Secondary Shares involves a high degree of risk, including a risk of total loss of Purchaser’s investment, and the Purchaser has full cognizance of and understands all of the risk factors related to the Purchaser’s purchase of the Secondary Shares, including those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s registration statement on Form F-3 filed with the SEC on July 2, 2004. The Purchaser has, with respect to all matters relating to this Agreement and the offer and sale of the Secondary Shares, relied solely upon the advice of the Purchaser’s own counsel and has not relied upon or consulted the counsel to the Seller.

 

4.4     Reliance on Exemptions; Acquisition for Own Account. (a) The Purchaser understands that the Secondary Shares are being offered and sold to the Purchaser in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Seller is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Secondary Shares.

 

4


(b)   The Purchaser is a company not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Secondary Shares, with total assets in excess of $5,000,000. The Secondary Shares have not been offered or sold to the Purchaser by any form of “general solicitation” or “general advertising”, each as defined in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

 

(c)   The Purchaser is acquiring the Secondary Shares for its own account and for investment purposes only and with no present intention of distributing any of the Secondary Shares or any arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the distribution of the Secondary Shares. The Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Secondary Shares except in compliance with the Securities Act (including pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements thereof), the rules and regulations thereunder and any applicable state securities laws. The Purchaser has, in connection with its decision to purchase the Secondary Shares, not relied upon any representations or other information (whether oral or written) other than the representations and warranties of the Seller contained herein and the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Company Purchase Agreement.

 

4.5     Transfer Taxes. Other than the payment of the New York State stock transfer tax, no stock transfer taxes are due as a result of the purchase of the Secondary Shares.

 

5.       Termination.

 

5.1     Termination. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon termination of the Company Purchase Agreement and may not be otherwise terminated by the Seller and the Purchaser without the Company’s prior written consent.

 

5.2     Consequences of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force or effect, except for this Section 5.2. Nothing in this Section 5 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to impair the right of either party to compel specific performance by the other party of its obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 5 shall be deemed to release either party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

 

6.       Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenant; Certain Remedies. Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Agreement, all representations and warranties made by the Seller and the Purchaser herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive without limitation as to time. Any covenant or undertaking in this Agreement contemplating performance by any party following the Closing shall survive in accordance with its terms.

 

7.       Reasonable Best Efforts. The Seller and the Purchaser will each use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy the closing conditions prior to August 31, 2004, including the execution and delivery of the Letter Agreement, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

5


8.       Broker’s Fee. There is no broker, investment banker, financial advisor, finder or other person which has been retained by or is authorized to act on behalf of any party hereto who might be entitled to any fee or commission for which any other party hereto will be liable in connection with the execution of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
