This Amendment No. 7 (this “Amendment No. 7”) amends the Statement on Schedule 13D first filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2014, as amended (the “Schedule 13D”), and is filed by Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (formerly Leucadia National Corporation, “Jefferies” or the “Reporting Person”) with respect to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“HomeFed Common Stock”), of HomeFed Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) owned by Jefferies and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to add the following:

On July 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 12, 2019, as amended from time to time, including pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 2, 2019 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Jefferies and Heat Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jefferies (“Merger Sub”), the Company merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jefferies (the “Surviving Company”). On the Effective Date, Jefferies acquired all of the outstanding shares of HomeFed Common Stock that Jefferies and its subsidiaries did not already own. As a result of the Merger: (i) all shares of HomeFed Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date (other than shares of HomeFed Common Stock owned by the Company, Jefferies or any of its subsidiaries (including Merger Sub) or dissenting stockholders) were automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Jefferies common stock equal to the exchange ratio of 2.0 (the “Merger Consideration”) and (ii) all limited liability company interests of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date were converted into limited liability company interests of the Surviving Company.

On the Effective Date, the certificate of formation of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Merger became the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company and the limited liability company agreement in substantially the form previously attached to the Merger Agreement became the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company. On the Effective Date, the name of the Surviving Company was changed to HomeFed LLC.

On July 1, 2019, the Surviving Company (as successor to the Company) and Jefferies entered into a letter agreement to terminate that certain Stockholders Agreement, dated as of March 28, 2014, as amended by that certain Waiver and Amendment No. 1 to Stockholders Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2019 (as amended, the “Stockholders Agreement”), by and between the Company and Jefferies effective on the Effective Date (the “Letter Agreement”). On the Effective Date, all rights, obligations and liabilities of the Surviving Company (as successor to the Company) and Jefferies or any of their respective affiliates contained in or arising out of the Stockholders Agreement, were terminated and released in full, and the parties and any of their respective affiliates have no further rights, obligations or liabilities with respect to the Stockholders Agreement.

Effective on the Effective Date, (i) the OTC Markets caused the retirement of the Company’s ticker symbol and (ii) shares of HomeFed Common Stock ceased being quoted on the OTCQB Marketplace. The Company will cease to be registered under the Exchange Act.

On the Effective Date, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all members of the board of directors of the Company resigned from their office and pursuant to the terms of the limited liability agreement of the Surviving Company, the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Date became the officers of the Surviving Company.
