TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-162953) of Brookfield Homes Corporation (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, filed on November 6, 2009, and as amended on February 5, 2010, pertaining to a $500,000,000 shelf, including the registration of common stock, warrants, rights to purchase common stock and units.
On March 31, 2011, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Contribution, dated as of October 4, 2010, among the Company, Brookfield Residential Properties Inc. (“Brookfield Residential”), Brookfield Residential Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”) and Brookfield Properties Corporation (“Brookfield Office Properties”) (the “Merger and Contribution Agreement”), (i) Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookfield Residential, merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger and (ii) Brookfield Office Properties and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Brookfield Office Properties Contributing Corporations”) contributed equity interests in certain entities owning all or substantially all of Brookfield Office Properties’ residential property business. Upon completion of the Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookfield Residential.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger and Contribution Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (i) each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.764900530 common shares of Brookfield Residential plus a cash amount in lieu of fractional shares, (ii) each outstanding share of the Company’s 8% Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A was converted into the right to receive one share of Brookfield Residential 8% Convertible Preferred Shares, Series A, (iii) the treasury shares and shares owned by the Company, Merger Sub or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company were cancelled for no consideration, (iv) the shares owned by Brookfield Residential remained outstanding, and (v) the Company’s outstanding stock options and other awards were exchanged for stock options or deferred share units under the Brookfield Residential stock plans exercisable or issuable upon similar terms and conditions as under the Company’s stock plans as set forth in the Merger and Contribution Agreement.
Following the Merger, the Company is deregistering all of the Company’s securities and therefore hereby removes from registration all securities of the Company registered pursuant to this Registration Statement that remain unissued.
