Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 31, 2022, Luby’s, Inc. (the “Company”), the Trustees identified below and Delaware Trust Company (the “Resident Trustee”) entered into a Liquidating Trust Agreement (the “Liquidating Trust Agreement”) in connection with the formation of a liquidating trust, LUB Liquidating Trust (the “Trust”), for the benefit of the stockholders of the Company, to facilitate the dissolution and termination of the Company in accordance with the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of the Company (the “Plan”) that was previously approved by the Company’s stockholders on November 17, 2020. The trustees of the Trust consist of the Company’s Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, John Garilli, and members of the Company’s board of directors, Gerald Bodzy and Joe C. McKinney (collectively, the “Trustees”), and the Resident Trustee.

Pursuant to the Liquidating Trust Agreement, effective on and as of May 31, 2022 (the “Transfer Date”), (i) the Company granted, delivered, released, assigned and conveyed to the Trust all of the Company’s right, title and interest in, to and under, all of the Company’s assets, including, without limitation, its accounts receivable, cash, intellectual property, securities, claims, causes of action, contingent claims and reserves, as well as all of the membership interests in Luby’s Fuddruckers Restaurants LLC, a Texas limited liability company that will be renamed RFL, LLC (collectively, the “Trust Assets”) and (ii) the Trust assumed all of the Company’s unsatisfied debts, claims, liabilities, commitments, suits and other obligations, whether contingent, fixed or otherwise, known or unknown (including, without limitation, any costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred in connection with the liquidation of the Company) (collectively, “Liabilities”) and agreed to pay, discharge and perform when due all of the Liabilities.

The purposes of the Trust are to hold, manage, administer and liquidate the Trust Assets, and to collect and distribute to the beneficiaries the income and the proceeds of the disposition of the Trust Assets, to collect amounts owed to the Company, and to pay any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company arising out of or in connection with the business or affairs of the Company.

The Liquidating Trust Agreement provides that the Trust will terminate upon the earlier of three years from the date of creation, or the final distribution (in accordance with the terms of the Liquidating Trust Agreement) from the Trust of all Trust Assets in compliance with the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless the Trustees determine that a longer period is needed to sell real estate or collect payment in full of any installment obligations owed by the purchaser of assets of the Company or Trust Assets and to make any final distribution of any such proceeds.

The Trustees will be authorized to retain professionals, including attorneys, auctioneers and appraisers, and other agents, to assist in liquidating and distributing the assets transferred to the Trust.

The Trust and the Company will indemnify the Resident Trustee and any director, officer, affiliate, employee, employer, professional, agent or representative of the Resident Trustee and will advance expenses, defend and hold harmless from time to time against any and all losses, claims, costs, expenses and liabilities to which such indemnified parties may be subject by reason of such indemnified party’s performance of its duties pursuant to the discretion, power and authority conferred on such person by the Liquidating Trust Agreement or the Plan.

Whenever a material event relating to the Trust Assets occurs, the Trustees will, within a reasonable period of time after such occurrence, prepare and issue a publicly available report describing such event.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Liquidating Trust Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information included under Item 1.01 above with respect to the transfer of all of the Company’s assets and liabilities to the Trust is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

Item 3.01

Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.

Pursuant to the Liquidating Trust Agreement, effective as of the Transfer Date:

•Each record owner of shares of common stock, $0.32 par value per share, of the Company (the “Shares”) as of the Transfer Date will receive one equal, undivided portion into which the beneficial interests in the Trust Assets are divided, as evidenced on the books and records of the Trust (each, a “Unit”) for each Share then held of record;

•The Units will not be certificated;

•The Units will generally not be transferable or assignable, except by will, intestate succession or operation of law;

•Except as may be otherwise required by law, the interests of the holders of Units (the “Unitholders”) will not be subject to attachment, execution, sequestration or any order of a court, nor will such interests be subject to the contracts, debts, obligations, engagements or liabilities of any Unitholders, but the interest of a Unitholder will be paid by the Trustees to the Unitholder free and clear of all assignments, attachments, anticipations, levies, executions, decrees and sequestrations and shall become the property of the Unitholder only when actually distributed by the Trustees to, and received by such Unitholder;

•Any Trustee may be removed, with or without cause, by Unitholders holding a majority of the Units (a “Majority-in-Interest”) or a majority of remaining Trustees;

•The Trustees may not remove a Trustee selected by a Majority-in-Interest, nor may the Trustees re-appoint any Trustee removed by a Majority-in-Interest;

•In case of death, resignation or removal of any Trustee, a majority of remaining Trustees or, if there is none, a Majority-in-Interest, may appoint a successor or successors;

•The Trust will submit to the beneficiaries such reports as the Trustees deem advisable;

•Any alteration or amendment of the Liquidating Trust Agreement will not become effective until consented to by the Trustees in writing and approved by a Majority-in-Interest;

•The Trustees may at any time call a meeting of the Unitholders to be held at such time and at such place as the Trustees shall determine, unlike the Company, which must hold a stockholders’ meeting every year; and

•The Trustees will call a meeting of the Unitholders upon request to the Trustees by a Majority-in-Interest to call a meeting of all of the Unitholders.

Pursuant to the Liquidating Trust Agreement, on and after the Transfer Date, all outstanding Shares shall automatically be deemed cancelled.

The foregoing description of the Liquidating Trust Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Liquidating Trust Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Following the Transfer Date, WCA will continue to provide services to the Trust as it did for the Company, on terms and for remuneration to be agreed upon.

There are no arrangements or understandings between any of Messrs. Bodzy, Garilli and McKinney and any other persons pursuant to which Messrs. Bodzy, Garilli or McKinney was appointed as a Trustee. In addition, there are no transactions or proposed transactions, to which the Trust is a party, or intended to be a party, in which any of the Trustees has, or will have, a material interest subject to disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K except as described herein.

GRANT TO TRUST AND NATURE OF TRANSFER

2.1     Grant.

Effective on and as of the Transfer Date, the Company grants, delivers, releases, assigns and conveys to the Trust (as a “successor entity” as defined in Section 280(e) of the DGCL), to be held in trust and administered and distributed by the Trustees for the

3

benefit of the Beneficiaries, all of the Company’s right, title, interest in, to and under, the Retained Assets, for the uses and purposes stated herein, subject to the terms and provisions set out below, and the Trust hereby accepts such Retained Assets, subject to the following terms and provisions.

2.2    Purpose of Trust.

(a) The primary purpose of this Agreement and of the appointment of the Trustees and the Resident Trustee hereunder is to facilitate the dissolution and termination of the Company and the disposition of the Retained Assets. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as to constitute the Beneficiaries or their successors in interest as members of an association. The purposes of the Trust are to hold, manage, administer and liquidate the Trust Assets, and to collect and distribute to the Beneficiaries the income and the proceeds of the disposition of the Trust Assets, to collect amounts owed to the Company, and to pay any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company arising out of or in connection with the business or affairs of the Company.

(b) The Trust is established for the sole purpose of winding up the Company’s affairs and the liquidation of the Retained Assets in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(d), with no objective to continue the business of the Company or to engage in the conduct of a trade or business, except as necessary for the orderly liquidation of the Trust Assets.

(c) It is expected that the Company shall liquidate and dissolve prior to fully winding up its affairs, including, but not limited to, the collection of its receivables and the payment of any unsatisfied Liabilities of the Company.

(d) The Retained Assets granted, assigned and conveyed to the Trust shall be held in the Trust, and the Trustees will (i) further liquidate the Trust Assets to carry out the purpose of the Trust and facilitate distribution of the Trust Assets, (ii) allocate, protect, conserve and manage the Trust Assets in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, (iii) complete the winding up of the Company’s affairs, (iv) act for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, and (v) distribute the Trust Assets in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

(e) It is intended that the granting, assignment and conveyance of the Retained Assets by the Company to the Trust pursuant to the terms hereof shall be treated for all tax purposes as if the Company made such distributions directly to the Stockholders who then transferred the Retained Assets to the Trust pursuant to the terms herein. It is further intended that for federal, state and local income tax purposes the Trust shall be treated as a liquidating trust under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d) and any analogous provision of state or local law, and the Beneficiaries shall be treated as the owners of their respective share of the Trust Assets pursuant to Sections 671 through 677 of the Tax Code and any analogous provision of state or local law, and shall be taxed on their respective share of the Trust’s taxable income (including both ordinary income and capital gains) pursuant to Section 671 of the Tax Code and any analogous provision of state or local law. The Trustees shall file all tax returns required to be filed with any governmental agency consistent with this position, including, but not limited to, any returns required of grantor trusts pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.671-4(b). The tax year of the Trust shall end on December 31 of each year.

2.3     Restriction on Trust Assets. The Trust shall not receive transfers of any listed stocks or securities, or any readily marketable assets, or any operating assets of a going business.

4

At any time, the Trust will only retain reasonable amounts of cash or cash equivalents necessary to meet contingent or other liabilities, as determined by the Trustees.

2.4    No Reversion to the Company. In no event shall any part of the Trust Assets revert to or be distributed to the Company.

2.5     Instruments of Further Assurance. Prior to the dissolution of the Company, such Persons as shall have the right and power to so act, will, upon reasonable request of the Trustees, execute, acknowledge, and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary or proper to carry out effectively the purposes of this Agreement, to confirm or effectuate the transfer to the Trust of any property intended to be held, administered and distributed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and to vest in the Trustees and their successors and assigns, the estate, powers, instruments or funds in trust hereunder. Title to Trust Assets may be held in the name of the Trust.

2.6     Payment of Liabilities. Effective on and as of the Transfer Date, the Trust assumes all Liabilities and agrees hereafter to pay, discharge and perform when due all of the Liabilities. Should any Liability be asserted against the Trust as the transferee of the Trust Assets or as a result of the assumption made in this Section 2.6, the Trustees may use such part of the Trust Assets as may be necessary in contesting any such liability or in payment thereof, but in no event shall the Trustees, Beneficiaries or employees or agents of the Trust be personally liable, nor shall resort be had to the private property of such Persons, in the event that the Trust Assets are not sufficient to satisfy the Liabilities.

2.7     Notice to Unlocated Stockholders. If the Trust holds Trust Assets for Unlocated Stockholders, due notice of the hold shall be given to Unlocated Stockholders in accordance with the law and to known Stockholders in accordance with the determination of the Trustees.

ARTICLE III

POWERS, DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES

3.1     The Trustees shall promptly take such action as is reasonable and necessary to liquidate to cash all Trust Assets and to collect on all actions vested in them and the Trust from the Company and its estate by such means as it deems advisable. The Trustees are hereby authorized to retain professionals, including attorneys, auctioneers and appraisers, and other agents for such purposes and to pay such professionals and agents out of the assets of the Trust.

3.2     Initially there shall be three (3) Trustees. A majority of Trustees or a majority of Beneficial Interests may change the number of Trustees. The Trustees are appointed for the primary purpose of liquidating and distributing the assets transferred to the Trust with no objective to continue or engage in the conduct of a trade or business. The Trustees shall make continuing efforts to dispose of the Trust Assets, make timely distributions, and not prolong the liquidation or duration of the Trust. In no event shall the Trustees receive any property, make any distribution, satisfy or discharge any obligation, claim, liability, or expense or otherwise take any action which is inconsistent with a complete liquidation of the Company as that term is used and interpreted by Sections 331 and 336 of the Tax Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and rulings, decisions and determinations of the Internal Revenue Service or the Delaware Court of Chancery, or take any action that would jeopardize the status of the Trust as a liquidating trust for federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d). The Trust will not retain cash or cash equivalents in excess of a

5

reasonable amount to meet contingent or other liabilities. The Trust is not intended to be, shall not be deemed to be and shall not be treated as, a general partnership, limited partnership, joint venture, corporation, joint stock company or association, nor shall the Trustees or the Beneficiaries, or any of them, for any purposes be, or be deemed to be or treated in any way whatsoever to be, liable or responsible hereunder as partners or joint ventures. In no event shall any part of the Trust corpus revert or be distributed to the Company.

(t)In general, without in any manner limiting any of the foregoing, deal with the Trust Assets or any part or parts thereof in all other ways as would be lawful for any person owning the same to deal therewith, whether similar to or different from the ways above specified, at any time or times hereafter;

3.5     In no case shall any party dealing with the Trustees in any manner whatsoever in relation to the Trust Assets or to any part or parts thereof, including but not limited to, any party to whom the Trust Assets or any part thereof shall be conveyed or contracted to be sold by the Trustees, be obligated to see to the application of any money or proceeds borrowed or advanced on said Trust Assets or be obligated to see that the provisions of this Trust Agreement have been complied with, or be obligated or privileged to inquire into the necessity or expediency of any act of the Trustees, or to inquire into any other limitation or restriction on the power and authority of the Trustees, but as to any party dealing with the Trustees in any manner whatsoever in relation to the Trust Assets, the power of the Trustees to act or otherwise deal with said Trust Assets shall be absolute.

3.6     All costs, expenses and obligations incurred by the Trust or Trustees in administering this Trust or in any manner connected, incidental or related thereto shall be a charge against the Trust Assets and shall be paid or reserved for prior to a distribution to the Beneficiaries as herein provided. Any attorneys or other professionals employed by the Trustees shall receive reasonable compensation for their services rendered, based upon a reasonable hourly rate, and expenses incurred in the administration of the Trust shall be deemed earned from the commencement of the Trust, and shall be a charge against and paid out of the Trust Assets on the same basis as other costs, expenses and obligations of the Trust. Should any liability be asserted against the Trustees as transferees of the Trust Assets or as a result of the assumption of the Liabilities, the Trustees may use such part of the Trust Assets as may be necessary in contesting any such liability or in payment thereof.

3.7    The Trustees shall keep an accounting of receipts and distributions. Without limiting the foregoing:

(a) As soon as practicable after the Transfer Date, the Trustees will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Beneficiary a notice indicating such Beneficiary’s beneficial interest in the Trust and the contact details of the Trustees. As soon as practicable after the end of each tax year and after the date on which the Trust terminates, but in any event within 90 days after each such event, the Trustees shall submit a written report and account to the Beneficiaries showing (i) the Assets and Liabilities of the Trust at the end of such taxable year or date of termination and the receipts and disbursements of the Trust for such taxable year or period ending on the date of termination, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, (ii) any changes in the Trust Assets and Liabilities that have not been previously reported, and (iii) any action taken by the Trustees in the performance of their duties under this Trust Agreement that they have not previously reported, and which, in their opinion, materially affects the Trust Assets or Liabilities.

(b) Whenever a material event relating to the Trust Assets occurs, the Trustees shall, within a reasonable period of time after such occurrence, prepare and issue a publicly available report describing such event. The occurrence of a material event need not be reported if an annual report pursuant to Section 6.1 will be

8

issued at approximately the same time that a report pursuant to this, Section 3.7(b), would be issued and such annual report describes the material event as it would be discussed in an interim report. The occurrence of a material event will be determined solely by the Trustees or as may be required by the rules and regulations promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

3.8     The Trustees shall have no personal liability for any of the Liabilities.

No recourse shall ever be had, directly or indirectly, against the Trustees personally or against the Beneficiaries or any of them or against any employee of or professional retained by the Trustees, by legal or equitable proceedings or by virtue of any statute or otherwise, on any deed of trust, mortgage, pledge, note, nor upon any promise, contract, instrument, undertaking, obligation, covenant or agreement whatsoever executed by the Trustees under this Trust or by it for any purpose authorized by this Trust, it being expressly understood and agreed that all such liabilities, covenants and agreements of the Trustees or any such employee, whether in writing or otherwise, under this Trust shall be enforceable only against and be satisfied only out of the Trust Assets or such part thereof as shall under the terms of any such agreement be liable therefor or shall be evidence only of a right of payment out of the income and proceeds of the Trust Assets, as the case may be; and every undertaking, contract, covenant or agreement entered into in writing by the Trustees shall provide expressly against the personal liability of the Trustees.

3.9     All of the decisions and determinations (including determinations of the meaning of any ambiguity in this Trust Agreement) of the Trustees made in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable business judgment shall be conclusive and binding on the Beneficiaries. The Trustees shall not be personally liable to any Beneficiary or any other party for any act they may do or omit to do as Trustees hereunder while acting in good faith, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The fact that any such act or omission was advised, directed or approved by an attorney acting as attorney for this Trust shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.

3.10     Any Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice to the remaining Trustees, including the Resident Trustee, and such resignation shall be effective upon the date provided in such notice.

3.11     Any Trustee may be removed, with or without cause, by a Majority-in-Interest of Beneficiaries or a majority of remaining Trustees. The Trustees may not remove a Trustee selected by a majority of Beneficial Interests, nor may the Trustees re-appoint any Trustee removed by a majority of Beneficial Interests.

3.12     In case of death, resignation or removal of any Trustee, a majority of remaining Trustee(s) or, if there is none, a majority of Beneficial Interests, may appoint a successor or successors. As noted in Section 3.11, the Trustees may not remove a successor Trustee selected by a majority of Beneficial Interests, nor may the Trustees re-appoint any successor Trustee removed by a majority of Beneficial Interests.

Each successor Trustee(s) shall execute an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and shall file such acceptance with the Resident Trustee. Thereupon, such successor Trustee(s) shall, without any further act, become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor in the Trust, with like effect as if originally named herein. The Trustees may maintain a list of potential successor Trustees.

BENEFICIARIES

4.1     Beneficial Interests.

a) The Beneficial Interest of each Initial Beneficiary shall be determined in accordance with a certified copy of the Company’s stockholder list as of the Transfer Date, as delivered by the Company’s transfer agent. The Company’s transfer agent will deliver such certified copy of the Company’s stockholder list to the Trustees within a reasonable time after such date. For ease of administration, the Trustees shall express the Beneficial Interest of each Beneficiary in terms of units (“Units”). Each record owner of Shares as of the Transfer Date shall receive one Unit for each Share then held of record. Each record owner of Shares shall have the same pro rata interest in the Trust Assets as such holder’s pro rata interest in the aggregate outstanding Shares on the Transfer Date.

(b) On and after the Transfer Date, all outstanding Shares shall automatically be deemed cancelled, notwithstanding the rights of Unlocated Stockholders as discussed in Section 2.7. The rights of Beneficiaries in, to and under the Trust Assets and the Trust shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, and no Beneficiary shall be entitled to such a certificate. The Trustees shall maintain an official record at its place of business, or at the office of a transfer agent retained for such purpose, a record of the name and address of each Beneficiary and such Beneficiary’s aggregate Units in the Trust.

(c) If any conflicting claims or demands are made or asserted with respect to the ownership of any Units, or if there is any disagreement between the transferees, assignees, heirs, representatives or legatees succeeding to all or part of the interest of any Beneficiary resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with such Units, then, in any of such events, the Trustees shall be entitled, at their sole election, to refuse to comply with any such conflicting claims or demands. In so refusing, the Trustees may elect to make no payment or distribution with respect to such Units, or to make such payment to the Delaware Court of Chancery or an escrow agent, and in so doing, the Trustees shall not be or become liable to any of such parties for their failure or refusal to comply with any of such conflicting claims or demands or to take any other action with respect thereto, nor shall the Trustees be liable for interest on any funds which it may so withhold. The Trustees shall be entitled to refrain and refuse to act until either (i) the rights of the adverse claimants have been adjudicated by a final judgment of the Delaware Court of Chancery, (ii) all differences have been adjusted by valid written agreement between all of such parties, and the Trustees shall have been furnished with an executed counterpart of such agreement, or (iii) there is furnished to the Trustees a surety bond or other security satisfactory to the Trustees, as they shall deem appropriate, to fully indemnify them as between all conflicting claims or demands.

4.2     Rights of Beneficiaries.

Each Beneficiary shall be entitled to participate in the rights and benefits due to a Beneficiary hereunder according to the Beneficiary’s Beneficial Interest. Each Beneficiary shall take and hold the same subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The interest of each Beneficiary hereunder is declared, and shall be in all respects, personal property and upon the death of an individual Beneficiary, the

10

Beneficiary’s Beneficial Interest shall pass as personal property to the Beneficiary’s legal representative and such death shall in no way terminate or affect the validity of this Agreement. A Beneficiary shall have no title to, right to, possession of, management of, or control of, the Trust Assets except as expressly provided herein. No widower, widow, heir or devisee of any individual who may be a Beneficiary shall have any right of dower, homestead, or inheritance, or of partition, marital property right or any other right, statutory or otherwise, in any property forming a part of the Trust Assets but the whole title to all the Trust Assets shall be vested in the Trustees and the sole interest of the Beneficiaries shall be the rights and benefits given to such Persons under this Agreement.

4.3    Limitations on Transfer of Interests of Beneficiaries.

(a) The Beneficial Interest of a beneficiary may not be transferred; provided that (i) the Beneficial Interests shall be assignable or transferable by will, intestate succession, or operation of law and (ii) the executor or administrator of the estate of a Beneficiary may mortgage, pledge, grant a security interest in, hypothecate or otherwise encumber, the Beneficial Interest held by the estate of such beneficiary if necessary in order to borrow money to pay estate, succession or inheritance taxes or the expenses of administering the estate of the beneficiary, upon written notice to, and written consent of, a majority of the Trustees, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.

(b) Except as may be otherwise required by law, the Beneficial Interests of the Beneficiaries hereunder shall not be subject to attachment, execution, sequestration or any order of a court, nor shall such interests be subject to the contracts, debts, obligations, engagements or liabilities of any Beneficiary, but the interest of a Beneficiary shall be paid by the Trustees to the Beneficiary free and clear of all assignments, attachments, anticipations, levies, executions, decrees and sequestrations and shall become the property of the Beneficiary only when actually distributed by the Trustees to, and received by such Beneficiary.

4.4    Missing Beneficiaries.

A Missing Beneficiary shall be defined as a Beneficiary who has not cashed one or more checks issued to him by the Trust in payment of liquidating distributions or has not properly endorsed any document required by a delivery service in connection with the delivery of property addressed to him as part of a liquidating distribution.  If a notice or distribution is mailed by the Trust to a Beneficiary and either the notice is returned by the United States Postal Service to the Trust as undeliverable or any check included in such notice is not cashed within a reasonable period of time, such Beneficiary shall thereafter be a Missing Beneficiary. The Trust shall deal with Missing Beneficiaries in accordance with applicable escheat laws and shall give notice as required by such escheat laws.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Luby’s, Inc. Announces Completion of Transfer of Remaining Assets to a Liquidating Trust

Luby’s, Inc. Announces Value of Deemed Distribution

Houston, TX, May 31, 2022 – Luby’s, Inc. (the "Company"), announced today the completion of the previously announced dissolution of the Company with the remainder of the assets and liabilities transferred to LUB Liquidating Trust (the “Trust”) pursuant to a plan of liquidation and dissolution (the “Plan”).The transfer to the Trust became effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on May 31, 2022 (the “Effective Time”).As previously reported, May 27, 2022, was the last day of trading of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.32 per share, (“Common Stock”) on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”).

At the Effective Time of the transfer, holders of the Company’s Common Stock automatically received one unit in the Trust (in book entry form) (“Unit”) for each share of the Company’s Common Stock held by such holder.As previously disclosed, Units in the Trust will not be listed on the NYSE, or any other exchange, and will generally not be transferable except by will, intestate succession or operation of law.This restriction on transfer will not prohibit the transfer of Units held by nominees or brokers to the beneficial holders of those Units.

Based on the average of the high and low trading prices of the Common Stock on the last three days on which the shares were traded on the NYSE, the deemed distribution for tax purposes to holders of Common Stock as of the Effective Time is $1.80 per share of Common Stock.For a discussion of the tax consequences of the transfer of the Company’s assets to the Trust and the distribution of the Trust Units to the stockholders, please see “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Proposed Dissolution - U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of a Liquidating Trust” beginning on page 48 of the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 6, 2020, in connection with the Plan., a copy of which is available on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov.Stockholders are strongly advised to contact their investment and tax advisors.
