Introduction

 

This Amendment No. 14 (this “Amendment”) relates to the Schedule 13D filed on July 13, 2006, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on March 9, 2007, as amended by Amendment No. 2 filed on June 26, 2009, as amended by Amendment No. 3 filed on May 1, 2013, as amended by Amendment No. 4 filed on December 17, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 5 filed on February 12, 2016, as amended by Amendment No. 6 filed on September 14, 2016, as amended by Amendment No. 7 filed on June 9, 2017, as amended by Amendment No. 8 filed on June 30, 2017, as amended by Amendment No. 9 filed on October 4, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 10 filed on November 14, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 11 filed on November 18, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 12 filed on December 1, 2022 and as amended by Amendment No. 13 filed on December 12, 2022 (the “Schedule 13D”), which relates to a group now consisting of Edward J. Shoen, Mark V. Shoen, Foster Road LLC (“Foster Road”), Willow Grove Holdings LP (“Willow Grove”), Blackwater Investments, Inc. (“Blackwater”), Clarendon Strategies, LLC (“Clarendon”) and SAC Holding Corporation (“SAC”) each individually and/or on behalf of the various entities as applicable (the “Reporting Persons”) with respect to the voting common stock, $0.25 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of U-Haul Holding Company (the “Company”).

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

As described in more detail below in Item 5(c), SAC purchased an aggregate of 24,900 shares of Common Stock in open market purchases for an aggregate purchase price of $1,404,711.46. The source of funds used in connection with the purchase of these shares of Common Stock was the working capital of SAC and its affiliates.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a)-(b) As set forth below, each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns the number and percentage of shares of Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock of the Company individually and as a group and each of the Reporting Persons maintains such sole or shared voting power as applicable. Each of the Reporting Persons continues to maintain sole dispositive power in respect of the shares beneficially owned individually by such Reporting Person. As of February 4, 2023, there were 19,607,788 shares of Common Stock outstanding, and as of February 4, 2023, there were 176,470,092 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding, each of which is used as the basis for calculating percentages.

 

Willow Grove is the record holder of 7,562,884 shares of Common Stock and 68,065,956 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock. Foster Road, which is owned and controlled by various trusts associated with Mark V. Shoen and Edward J. Shoen, owns a 0.1% general partner interest in Willow Grove. The managers of Foster Road are Stuart Shoen and Mark V. Shoen. The trustees of the trusts and managers of Foster Road may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the securities held of record by Willow Grove. Each of them disclaims beneficial ownership of any such securities except to the extent of such persons pecuniary interest therein, and the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any such person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 13(g) of the Act or for any other purposes.

 

Blackwater is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Willow Grove and is the record holder of 880,127 shares of Common Stock and 7,921,143 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock. Mark V. Shoen is the president and sole director of Blackwater. By virtue of Blackwater’s ownership of Clarendon and SAC, Blackwater is deemed to be the indirect owner of shares of Common Stock held by Clarendon and SAC. Accordingly, Blackwater directly and indirectly own 2,229,027 shares of Common Stock, approximately 11.37% of the Common Stock outstanding, and 7,921,143 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, approximately 4.49% of the Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding.

 

 

 

Clarendon is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blackwater and is the record holder of 1,324,000 shares of Common Stock. Mark V. Shoen is the sole manager of Clarendon.

 

SAC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blackwater and is the record holder of 24,900 shares of Common Stock. Mark V. Shoen is the president and the directors of SAC are Mark V. Shoen and Stuart Shoen.

 

By virtue of Willow Grove’s ownership of Blackwater, Clarendon and SAC, Willow Grove and Foster Road are deemed to be indirect owners of shares of Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock held by Blackwater, Clarendon and SAC. Accordingly, Willow Grove and Foster Road directly and indirectly own 9,791,911 shares of Common Stock, approximately 49.94% of the Common Stock outstanding and 75,987,099 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, approximately 43.1% of the Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding.

 

Edward J. Shoen:

 

Individually - is the record holder of 32 shares of Common Stock and 288 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, the beneficial owner of 15 shares of Common Stock and 136 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by an ESOP Trust Fund, and is the beneficiary of 25,106 shares of Common Stock and 225,954 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by the EJS-028 Trust, but does not have voting or dispositive control the shares held by EJS-028 Trust.

 

As Foster Road is owned and controlled by various trusts associated with Mark V. Shoen and Edward J. Shoen, Edward J. Shoen may be deemed to be an indirect owner of the shares held directly and indirectly by Willow Grove. Accordingly, Edward J. Shoen directly and indirectly owns 9,791,958 shares of Common Stock, approximately 49.94% of the Common Stock outstanding and 76,213,477 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, approximately 43.2% of the Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding.

 

Mark V. Shoen:

 

Individually - is the record holder of 4,771 shares of Common Stock and 42,931 shares of Non-Voting Common. He is also the trustee and beneficiary along with his spouse of 6,707 shares of Common Stock and 60,363 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by the Shoen Family Revocable Trust, and has voting and dispositive control over such shares. He is the trustee of 25,106 shares of Common Stock and 225,954 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock held by the EJS-028 Trust and has voting and dispositive control over such shares.

 

As Foster Road is owned and controlled by various trusts associated with Mark V. Shoen and Edward J. Shoen, Mark V. Shoen may be deemed to be an indirect owner of the shares held directly and indirectly by Willow Grove. Accordingly, Mark V. Shoen directly and indirectly owns 9,828,495 shares of Common Stock, approximately 50.13% of the Common Stock outstanding and 76,316,347 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, approximately 43.25% of the Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding.

 

Group - has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in 9,828,542 and 76,316,771 shares of Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock, respectively, approximately 50.13% and 43.25%, respectively of the Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding.

 

Each of the Reporting Persons, as a member of a “group” with the other Reporting Persons for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act, may be deemed to beneficially own the shares owned by the other Reporting Persons. The filing of this Schedule 13D/A shall not be deemed an admission that any of the Reporting Person is, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of any shares he or it does not directly own. Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares reported herein that he or it does not directly own.

 

 

 

(c) SAC purchased an aggregate of 24,900 shares of Common Stock in open market purchases for an aggregate purchase price of $1,404,711.46, as follows:
