Extension of Trust Term
In accordance with the plan of liquidation (the “Plan of Liquidation”) adopted on July 11, 2019 by Spirit MTA REIT (“SMTA”) (the predecessor of SMTA Liquidating
Trust (the “Trust”)), on January 1, 2020, SMTA entered into a Liquidating Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), for the creation and operation of the Trust. Under the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Trust will terminate upon the earlier of
the distribution of all of the Trust’s assets in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement, or the expiration of a period of three years from the effective date of the Trust (or January 1, 2023). Under the terms of the Trust Agreement, the
existence of the Trust may, however, be extended for fixed-term extensions under certain circumstances at the reasonable discretion of the trustees of the Trust (the “Trustees”) pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement.
The Trust currently holds reserves for liabilities and obligations necessary for the final wind up of the Trust and reasonable estimates made for certain
contingent liabilities including indemnification obligations relating to past property sales. Once such contingent liabilities are resolved, which could be for amounts higher or lower than previously estimated by the Trustees, if there exists more
than de minimis net assets in liquidation held by the Trust, the Trust will make final liquidation distributions to the holders of units of beneficial interests of the Trust and, in accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, the operations of the
Trust will be fully wound up and the Trust and each of its subsidiaries will be dissolved. The amount and timing of, and record date for, such final liquidating distributions, if any, on the units of beneficial interests of the Trust will be
determined by the Trustees and will depend upon the timing of resolution of the Trust’s contingent liabilities and the steps necessary to complete the Plan of Liquidation and the amounts deemed necessary by the Trustees to pay or provide for the
Trust’s liabilities and obligations.
As a result of the Trust’s remaining contingent liabilities and the expectation of the Trustees that such contingent liabilities will not be resolved prior to
January 1, 2023, on December 22, 2022, the Trustees adopted a resolution to extend the term of the Trust to terminate upon the earlier of the distribution of all of the Liquidating Trust’s assets in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement,
or January 1, 2024.
