The Reporting Person has expended no funds to acquire shares of the NIKE Class B Stock.  The Reporting Person owns shares of the NIKE Class A Stock, which are convertible at any time into shares of the NIKE Class B Stock on a one-for-one basis.  All shares of the NIKE Class A Stock owned by the Reporting Person were contributed to the Reporting Person by PHK in exchange for all of the outstanding voting and nonvoting units of Swoosh.  See Item 6 for a description of the outstanding units of Swoosh.

On June 30, 2015, in exchange for all of the outstanding voting and non-voting units of Swoosh, PHK transferred to Swoosh as a capital contribution 128,500,000 shares of the NIKE Class A Stock to provide for the holding, voting and management of the NIKE Class A Stock in accordance with the terms of the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Swoosh (the “Swoosh Agreement”).  PHK and Swoosh Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company wholly-owned by PHK (“Swoosh Holdings”) (which received all of the non-voting units of Swoosh on behalf of PHK in connection with his contribution of a portion of the shares of the NIKE Class A Stock to Swoosh), are currently the only members of Swoosh.  See Item 6 for a description of the outstanding units of Swoosh.

Board of Directors of Swoosh
 
Also on June 30, 2015, PHK designated himself and each of Mark G. Parker, Alan B. Graf, Jr., and John J. Donahoe II, all of whom are current directors of NIKE, as the initial members of the Board of Directors of Swoosh (the “Swoosh Board”).  Mr. Parker also serves as the Chief Executive Officer of NIKE.  The Swoosh Agreement provides that the Swoosh Board will exercise general management authority over Swoosh pursuant to the terms of the Swoosh Agreement, including with respect to the voting, disposition and conversion of the NIKE Class A Stock owned by Swoosh.  See Item 6 for a description of the Swoosh Agreement.
 
As more fully described in Item 6, the Swoosh Board consists of five board seats, each with one vote.  Under the Swoosh Agreement, each of Messrs. Parker, Graf and Donahoe (as the “Independent Directors” of Swoosh, as defined in the Swoosh Agreement) has one vote each on the Swoosh Board, while PHK initially has two votes on Swoosh Board by virtue of holding both of the “Class X Board Seats” on the Swoosh Board, as permitted under the Swoosh Agreement.  The Independent Directors will be elected by the Independent Directors.  Directors for the two Class X Board Seats will be elected by vote of holder(s) of the voting units of Swoosh, as described in Item 6.
 
Holding of NIKE Class A Stock by Swoosh
 
PHK is the co-founder and current Chairman of the Board of NIKE.  PHK personally formed Swoosh pursuant to the Swoosh Agreement and has contributed 128,500,000 shares of the NIKE Class A Stock to Swoosh.  The NIKE Class A Stock owned by Swoosh represents approximately 15% of the total outstanding shares of NIKE common stock.  As discussed below, Swoosh’s ownership of NIKE Class A Stock entitles it to elect seventy-five percent (75%) of the board of directors of NIKE.  PHK believes that Swoosh’s ownership of a majority of the NIKE Class A Stock will provide continuity of knowledge and expertise with respect to the continued management and vision of NIKE in connection with the succession of ownership of the NIKE Class A Stock.  Accordingly, the Swoosh Board will be entitled, but not obligated, to cause Swoosh to retain ownership of the shares of the NIKE Class A Stock owned by Swoosh and to preserve the current voting rights of the NIKE Class A Stock in the interest of maintaining the long-term benefits of that structure to NIKE and Swoosh. Nothing in the Swoosh Agreement will be deemed to establish a presumption in favor or against any particular course of action with respect to the voting, holding or disposition by Swoosh of shares of the NIKE Class A Stock, or the conversion of the NIKE Class A Stock held by Swoosh into shares of NIKE Class B Stock, which matters will be entirely subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors of Swoosh pursuant to the terms of the Swoosh Agreement.  Pursuant to the Swoosh Agreement, the Swoosh Board will have no duty (including any fiduciary or similar duty) or obligation, express or implied, to (i) sell or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, shares of the NIKE Class A Stock for the purposes of creating liquidity or diversification or (ii) convert the NIKE Class A Stock held by Swoosh into shares of the NIKE Class B Stock or to otherwise divest the NIKE Class A Stock of its special voting rights, except as expressly set out in Section 6.4 of the Swoosh Agreement (“sunset” provision regarding NIKE Class A Stock voting rights), as described in Item 6.
 
Election of NIKE Directors
 
As noted above, Swoosh has the power, as a result of its ownership of the shares of the NIKE Class A Stock reported herein, to elect 75% of NIKE’s board of directors, subject to the rounding factor described below.  The holders of NIKE Class A Stock and the holders of NIKE Class B Stock vote separately on the election of directors for NIKE, with the holders of NIKE Class B Stock entitled to elect 25% of the total board, rounded up to the next whole number.  The holders of the NIKE Class A Stock, voting separately, elect the remaining directors.  Holders of the NIKE Class A Stock currently elect ten of NIKE’s fourteen directors.  As long as the total outstanding shares of NIKE Class A Stock represent more than 12.5% of the total outstanding shares of NIKE common stock, NIKE Class A shares and NIKE Class B shares will vote separately in the election of directors of NIKE.  The total outstanding shares of the NIKE Class A Stock currently represent approximately 20.7% of the total outstanding shares of NIKE common stock.

Pursuant to Section 6.3 of the Swoosh Agreement, so long as (i) Swoosh owns, or exercises voting control over, any securities of NIKE entitled to vote for the election of directors of NIKE, and (ii) shares of the common stock of NIKE are traded on a National Securities Exchange, Swoosh will vote such securities for the election of a majority of directors to the NIKE board of directors who (A) qualify as “independent directors” under the listing standards of the National Securities Exchange that is the primary market for NIKE common stock and (B) are independent of PHK and any of his direct descendants.  A person will be deemed, for purposes of Section 6.3 of the Swoosh Agreement, to be independent of PHK and any of his direct descendants if the Swoosh Board determines in good faith that the person does not have any material financial, transactional, personal or familial relationship to PHK or any of his direct descendants, with “material” for this purpose meaning a standard of relationship (financial, personal or otherwise) that a reasonable person might conclude would influence a director’s objectivity in a manner that would have a meaningful impact on the director’s ability to satisfy requisite fiduciary standards on behalf of all NIKE shareholders.
 
NIKE Directors May Serve on the Swoosh Board
 
As noted in Item 2, Messrs. Parker, Graf and Donahoe are directors of Swoosh and serve on the NIKE board of directors and Mr. Parker is the Chief Executive Officer of NIKE.  As more fully described in Item 6, the Swoosh Agreement provides that there shall be a non-binding preference for those persons appointing or electing Independent Directors to appoint or elect as Independent Directors two or three directors of NIKE and zero or one individual who is not a director of NIKE (but who may be a former NIKE director).  The Swoosh Agreement provides that in the event any directors or officers of Swoosh who are also directors or officers of NIKE determine that they have a conflict of interest with respect to any matter involving NIKE and/or its public shareholders, on the one hand, and Swoosh and/or its members, on the other hand, (1) their duty to NIKE and/or its public shareholders, in their roles and capacities as directors or officers of NIKE, shall supersede any duty to Swoosh and/or its members, (2) any acts, failures to act, or decisions that they may take in their roles and capacities as directors or officers of NIKE shall not be a breach of any duty or obligation to Swoosh or its members, (3) they shall inform Swoosh in writing of any such conflict of interest promptly following their determination that the conflict exists and (4) they may, but shall not be required, to recuse themselves from any vote of Swoosh and any such recusal shall not be a breach of any duty to the Swoosh or its members.
 
Appointment of Travis A. Knight to NIKE Board of Directors
 
As previously reported by NIKE, the NIKE board of directors has appointed Travis A. Knight (“TAK”) to the NIKE board.  TAK is the son of PHK.
 
Possible Transfer of Interests in Swoosh to TAK
 
PHK and Swoosh Holdings are the only members of Swoosh.  PHK owns all voting units of Swoosh (representing a 10% equity interest in Swoosh) and Swoosh Holdings owns all non-voting units of Swoosh (representing a 90% equity interest in Swoosh).  As more fully described in Item 6, holders of the voting units of Swoosh (the “Class X Units”) elect directors to two of the five seats on the Swoosh Board (the “Class X Board Seats”).  One individual may hold both Class X Board Seats, and both are currently held by PHK.  PHK has informed the Swoosh Board that he may (but has no agreement or obligation to) transfer some or all of the Class X Units to TAK, with any such transfer, if it is undertaken, possibly occurring as early as mid-2016.  If the transfer of Class X Units to TAK were to happen, it is likely that TAK would be appointed to one or two of the Class X Board seats at that time, and it is possible he may be appointed to one of the Class X Board seats prior to that time.

Possibility of PHK Resigning as Chairman of the Board of NIKE and Assuming a Non-Voting Role on NIKE Board
 
PHK has also informed the Swoosh Board and the board of NIKE that he may (but has no agreement or obligation to) resign as Chairman of the Board of NIKE contemporaneously with the transfer by PHK to TAK of a majority of Class X Units, if such a transfer occurs.  If PHK resigns as chairman of the NIKE board he will seek to have an ongoing role with NIKE, including serving in a non-voting capacity on the NIKE board, subject to approval of the NIKE board of directors.  PHK has recommended to the NIKE board that his successor as Chairman of the Board of NIKE be Mark G. Parker, NIKE’s current Chief Executive Officer, a current member of the board of directors of NIKE and an Independent Director of Swoosh.
 
Except as set forth in this Item 4, Swoosh has no present plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions specified in Clauses (a) – (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D of the Act.
 
ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
 
(a)  Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, Swoosh is deemed to own beneficially 128,500,000 shares of the NIKE Class B Stock as a result of Swoosh’s ownership of 128,500,000 shares of NIKE Class A Stock, which is convertible at any time on a one-for-one basis into shares of the NIKE Class B Stock.  The 128,500,000 shares of the NIKE Class B Stock that Swoosh is deemed to own beneficially constitutes approximately 15.0% of the 856,141,324 shares of the NIKE Class B Stock deemed outstanding pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the Act.
 
(b)  Swoosh has no voting or dispositive power over any shares of the NIKE Class B Stock.

(c)  On June 30, 2015, PHK contributed 128,500,000 shares of NIKE Class A Common Stock to Swoosh as a capital contribution pursuant to the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Swoosh.

Except as set forth in this paragraph (c), to the best of the knowledge of the Reporting Person, none of the persons named in Item 2 have effected any transactions in the NIKE Class B Stock during the past 60 days.
 
(d)  The Reporting Person affirms that, to the best of its knowledge, no person other than those persons named in Item 2 has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of the Stock owned by such person.
 
(e)  Not applicable.
 
ITEM 6.  CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

    On June 30, 2015, PHK, Swoosh Holdings and Swoosh entered into the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Swoosh (previously defined herein as the “Swoosh Agreement”).  The description of the Swoosh Agreement contained herein is not, and does not purport to be, complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.  A copy of the Swoosh Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.  All capitalized terms used in this Item 6 that are not otherwise defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Swoosh Agreement.

Ownership of Swoosh
 
PHK and Swoosh Holdings are the only owners of units of Swoosh.  In consideration of his contribution of shares of the NIKE Class A Stock to Swoosh, PHK received Class X Units (voting units), which represent 10% of the equity units of Swoosh, and Swoosh Holdings received Class Y Units (non-voting units), which represent 90% of the equity units of Swoosh.  The Class Y Units have no voting rights except to the extent required by Delaware law and under limited circumstances in connection with amendments of the Swoosh Agreement, as provided therein.
 
Board of Directors of Swoosh
 
On June 30, 2015, PHK, acting pursuant to the Swoosh Agreement, appointed a Board of Directors of Swoosh to exercise management authority over Swoosh.  The Swoosh Board consists of five board seats, three of which are classified as Independent Board Seats and two of which are classified as Class X Board Seats.  Each holder of a Swoosh board seat is entitled to one vote.  All board seats must be held by natural persons, provided that the two Class X Board Seats may be held by the same person.  PHK currently holds both Class X Board Seats.  The presence at a meeting of the Board of Directors of at least two Independent Directors and one Class X Director constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business, and any action of the Board requires the approval of a majority of votes cast by members of the Board of Directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present.
 
The Board of Directors of Swoosh manages the business and affairs of Swoosh pursuant to the terms of the Swoosh Agreement.  The voting, and any sale or other disposition of any interest in the shares of the NIKE Class A Stock held by Swoosh, or the conversion of shares of the NIKE Class A Stock into shares of the NIKE Class B Stock, requires the approval of the Board of Directors of Swoosh.
 
Election of Directors of Swoosh
 
Pursuant to Section 7.6(b) of the Swoosh Agreement, the two Class X Directors of Swoosh will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast for each Class X Board Seat at an annual meeting of the holders of Class X Units or by unanimous written consent of the holders of the Class X Units in lieu of a meeting.  Section 7.6(b) also provides that any or all of the Class X Directors may be removed, at any time, with or without cause, and replaced by the holders of a majority of the Class X Units, subject to Section 7.6(d).  Under Section 7.6(d) of the Swoosh Agreement, one Class X Director may, from time to time, be removed at any time with or without cause, and replaced upon the approval of two Independent Directors and both Protectors; however, this removal and replacement right may be exercised only with respect to one Class X Board Seat at a time (i.e., the Class X Members shall at all times have the right to elect and replace a Director holding one Class X Board Seat).
 
The three Independent Directors of Swoosh will elect the Independent Directors of Swoosh.  Elections of Independent Directors will occur at an annual meeting of the Independent Directors or by written consent in lieu of a meeting, subject to the right of the Protectors, as described below, to remove, at any time, with or without cause, and replace up to two Independent Directors during any 24-month period.  The election of Independent Directors at annual meetings of the Independent Directors may consist of the re-election of any or all of the current Independent Directors.  Subject to certain restrictions set forth in Section 8.2 of the Swoosh Agreement, the Independent Directors have the right to remove at any time, with or without cause, and replace each other by majority vote of the Independent Directors.
 

 
8

 

 
In electing or appointing Independent Directors, there shall, pursuant to Section 8.4 of the Swoosh Agreement, be a non-binding preference for the Independent Board Seats to be filled by two or three directors of NIKE and zero or one individual who is not a director of NIKE (but who may be a former NIKE director).  The considerations set forth in Section 8.4 of the Swoosh Agreement are precatory only, and the failure to appoint or elect Directors to the Independent Board Seats who satisfy the preferences expressed therein will not in any way impair or restrict the status or authority of any Independent Director who fails to satisfy such preferences either at the time of his or her appointment or election or thereafter.
 
Swoosh Protectors
 
At the time of the appointment of the Swoosh Board, PHK also designated two individuals as Protectors under the Swoosh Agreement.  Mark A. Wolfson was designated as the “Primary Protector” and Rodolfo ("Rudy") Chapa was designated as the “Deputy Protector.”  The Protectors may, in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 9.2 of the Swoosh Agreement, remove up to two of the Independent Directors, with or without cause, during any consecutive 24-month period and appoint a new Independent Director or Directors to fill any vacancy thus created.  The removal and replacement of an Independent Director must be initiated in writing by the Primary Protector and requires the written approval of the Deputy Protector.  Each Protector is required under the Swoosh Agreement to name his successor and will serve until his death, resignation or Disability unless removed pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 9.3 of the Swoosh Agreement.
 
One Protector may be removed under a Collective Protector Removal Notice delivered to Swoosh pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Swoosh Agreement and signed by (a) two Independent Directors, (b) both Class X Directors (or by one Class X Director if one individual holds both Class X Board Seats) and (c) either (x) the Deputy Protector (in the case of the removal of the Primary Protector) or (y) the Primary Protector (in the case of the removal of the Deputy Protector).
 
Actions Regarding Securities of NIKE
 
As described in Item 4, pursuant to Section 6.3 of the Swoosh Agreement, so long as (i) Swoosh owns, or exercises voting control over, any securities of NIKE entitled to vote for the election of directors of NIKE, and (ii) shares of the common stock of NIKE are traded on a National Securities Exchange, Swoosh will vote such securities for the election of a majority of directors to the NIKE board of directors who (A) qualify as “independent directors” under the listing standards of the National Securities Exchange that is the primary market for NIKE common stock and (B) are independent of PHK and any of his direct descendants.
 
Conversion of NIKE Class A Stock
 
Section 6.4 of the Swoosh Agreement provides that upon the 35th anniversary of the date of the Swoosh Agreement, the Board of Directors of Swoosh must utilize its best efforts promptly to convert any shares of the NIKE Class A Stock then held by Swoosh into shares of NIKE Class B Stock.
 
Except as set forth herein or in the Exhibit filed herewith, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect to the shares of the capital stock of the Issuer owned by the Reporting Person.
