This Amendment No. 5 (this Schedule 13D/A) to the original Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on July 21, 2014 (the Original Schedule 13D), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on September 3, 2014, Amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on February 2, 2015, Amendment No. 3 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on March 5, 2015, and Amendment No. 4 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on June 9, 2015 (as amended, the Schedule 13D) is being filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons (as defined below) only.  Government Properties Income Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (GOV), that was a joint filer with the Reporting Persons on the Schedule 13D, is not a joint filer on this Schedule 13D/A.  With respect to the Reporting Persons, this Amendment is the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

 

ITEM 1.                                                SECURITY AND ISSUER.

 

The class of equity securities to which this Schedule 13D/A relates is the common shares of beneficial interest, $.01 par value per share (the Shares), of Select Income REIT (the Issuer).  The Issuers principal executive offices are located at Two Newton Place, 255 Washington Street, Suite 300, Newton, Massachusetts 02458.

 

ITEM 2.                                                IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

 

This Schedule 13D/A is being filed on behalf of each of the following persons (collectively, the Reporting Persons):

 

(1)         The RMR Group LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (RMR LLC);

 

(2)         ABP Trust, a Maryland statutory trust (ABP Trust) (a beneficial owner of RMR LLC);

 

(3)         Barry M. Portnoy, a United States citizen (a managing trustee of the Issuer, the chairman of RMR LLC and a beneficial owner and trustee of ABP Trust); and

 

(4)         Adam D. Portnoy, a United States citizen (a managing trustee of the Issuer, the president and chief executive officer of RMR LLC and a beneficial owner, trustee and the president of ABP Trust).

 

The additional information regarding the Reporting Persons contained in Item 2. Identity and Background contained in the Schedule 13D is not otherwise being amended by this Schedule 13D/A.

 

ITEM 3.                                                SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

 

The information regarding the Reporting Persons contained in Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration contained in the Schedule 13D is not being amended by this Schedule 13D/A.

 

ITEM 4.                                                PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

This statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the Reporting Persons have ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5 percent of the Shares.

 

Adam D. Portnoy and Barry M. Portnoy are managing trustees of GOV and executive officers of RMR LLC, manager of GOV.  However, they may not act to vote or sell the Shares directly and beneficially owned by GOV without authorization of the board of trustees of GOV, which is comprised of five trustees.  As a result, Messrs. Barry M. Portnoy and Adam D. Portnoy have determined that they should not be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned by GOV.

 

ITEM 5.                                                INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

 

(a)                               Amount beneficially owned and percentage of class:

 

ABP Trust beneficially owns 1,483,898 Shares.

Mr. Barry M. Portnoy directly owns 133,357.578 Shares and Mr. Adam D. Portnoy directly owns 101,535 Shares.  Messrs. Barry M. Portnoy and Adam D. Portnoy, as beneficial owner and trustee and as beneficial owner, trustee and president, respectively, of ABP Trust, may also be deemed to beneficially own (and have shared voting and dispositive power over) the Shares beneficially owned by ABP Trust.

 

ABP Trust beneficially owns approximately 1.7% of the issued and outstanding Shares and Messrs. Barry M. Portnoy and Adam D. Portnoy each beneficially own approximately 1.8% of the issued and outstanding Shares.

 

To the Reporting Persons knowledge, the other individuals named in Item 2 of the Schedule 13D beneficially own an aggregate of less than 1% of the issued and outstanding Shares which are not included in the percentages owned by the Reporting Persons.  The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim any beneficial ownership of these Shares.
