Introductory Note

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D is filed by and on behalf of each of the Reporting Persons to amend and supplement the Schedule 13D related to the Common Shares of Beneficial Interest, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Diversified Healthcare Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Issuer”), previously filed by the Reporting Persons with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 12, 2023 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). Each capitalized term used and not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D. Except as provided herein, each Item of the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.

Item 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

In acquiring 14,011,563 Shares, Galvanic Portfolios expended approximately $12,380,901 (excluding commissions) of its working capital.

Item 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On July 14, 2023, certain of the Reporting Persons filed a presentation (the “Presentation”) setting forth their opposition to the Proposed Merger with the SEC on Form PX14A6G. The foregoing summary of the Presentation is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Presentation which is filed as Exhibit 4 to the Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference. Certain of the Reporting Persons have also shared the Presentation with proxy advisory firms, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. and Glass, Lewis & Co.

 

Item 5.

INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

(a), (b) Based upon Amendment No. 4 to the Form S-4 filed by Office Properties Income Trust with the SEC on July 17, 2023, there were 239,792,354 Shares issued and outstanding of the Issuer as of June 16, 2023. The 14,011,563 Shares beneficially owned by Galvanic Portfolios (the “Subject Shares”) represent approximately 5.8% of the Shares issued and outstanding.

Manager II, as the manager of Galvanic Portfolios, may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares. Adviser II, as the investment adviser of Galvanic Portfolios, may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares. DESCO LLC, as the managing member of Manager II, may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares. DESCO LP, as the managing member of Adviser II, may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of (and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of) the Subject Shares. On July 18, 2023, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned 5.8% of the Shares issued and outstanding. None of Manager II, Adviser II, DESCO LLC, or DESCO LP owns any of the Subject Shares directly, and each of Manager II, Adviser II, DESCO LLC, and DESCO LP disclaims beneficial ownership of the Subject Shares.

David E. Shaw does not own any shares directly. By virtue of David E. Shaw’s position as President and sole shareholder of DESCO Inc., which is the general partner of DESCO LP, which in turn is the managing member of Adviser II, which in turn is the investment adviser of Galvanic Portfolios, and by virtue of David E. Shaw’s position as President and sole shareholder of DESCO II Inc., which is the managing member of DESCO LLC, which in turn is the managing member of Manager II, which in turn is the manager of Galvanic Portfolios, David E. Shaw may be deemed to have the shared power to vote or direct the vote of, and the shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of, the Subject Shares as described above. Therefore, David E. Shaw may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Subject Shares. David E. Shaw disclaims beneficial ownership of the Subject Shares.

As of July 18, 2023, neither any Reporting Person nor, to the best knowledge of any Reporting Person, any of the persons set forth in Item 2, owned any Shares other than those set forth in Item 5.

(c) The trading dates, number of Shares purchased or sold, and the price per share for all transactions by the Reporting Persons in the Shares since the filing of the Schedule 13D on June 12, 2023 through July 18, 2023, which were all brokered transactions, are set forth below:

Item 6.

CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
