Notice of Trust Wind Up Event

This notice is being provided to Unitholders, the Warrantholders, the Depositor, and the Rating Agencies in accordance with Sections 9.05 and 12.07 of the Standard Terms.

On May 15, 2020, J. C. Penney Company, Inc. filed for bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Corpus Christi Division (Case No. 20-20182).[1] This filing constituted an Underlying Security Default and this Underlying Security Default constituted a Trust Wind-Up Event.[2]

As a result of this Trust Wind-Up Event, and in accordance with the Governing Agreements, the Selling Agent for the Trust, will solicit bids for the underlying J.C. Penney Company, Inc. 7.625% debentures due March 1, 2097, CUSIP 708160BL9, with a face value of $54,500,000 on behalf of the Trust, subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the Warrantholders. The net proceeds from the sale of the Underlying Securities (if any) will be applied to redeem the Units and terminate the Trust pursuant to the Governing Agreements. The final distribution will occur on a date to be determined following the completion of the sale (if any) at a time and in a manner consistent with the Governing Agreements.

Beneficial owners of the Units will receive any distributions through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and the intermediaries through which they hold their Units. DTC will present its Units to the Trustee in accordance with the procedures specified by DTC and the Trustee. Beneficial owners of the Units should inquire with the intermediary holding their Units as to procedures for presentation and final payment and should provide instructions in writing with respect to the final distribution to their intermediary if required.


1 Holders can review and/or monitor certain court filings in the bankruptcy proceedings via the website maintained by Prime Clerk at https://cases.primeclerk.com/JCPenney/. The Trustee makes no representations about the timeliness, completeness or accuracy of information posted to this website.

2 As a result of the filing, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) announced in a press release dated May 19, 2020 that it has commenced the process for delisting the Class A Units from NYSE and that trading in the Class A Units has been suspended.

Each person or entity receiving this notice should seek the advice of its own advisors in respect of the matters set forth herein.

Please be further advised that the Trustee reserves all of the rights, powers, claims, and remedies available to it under the Governing Agreements and applicable law. No delay or forbearance by the Trustee in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon the occurrence of a default, or otherwise under the terms of the Governing Agreements, other documentation relating thereto or under applicable law, shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver thereof or acquiescence therein.
