On July 18, 2025, Dillard’s, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Elimination (the “Certificate of Elimination”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware effecting the elimination of the Certificate of Designations relating to the Company’s Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) previously filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 7, 2002. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of rights under a shareholder rights plan that expired on March 2, 2012, and no shares of Series A Preferred Stock were ever issued or outstanding. Following the filing of the Certificate of Elimination with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, all previously authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock resumed the status of undesignated shares of the Company’s preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.

 

The Certificate of Elimination became effective upon filing, and a copy is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The above description of the Certificate of Elimination is a summary and, as such, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Elimination, which is incorporated herein by reference.
