(the “Company”) on September 18, 2019 and a copy of a letter from the Company to its stockholders, dated September 18, 2019.

The information in this Item 7.01 disclosure, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section. In addition, the information in this Item 7.01 disclosure, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, shall not be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Final Liquidating Distribution and Dissolution of the Company
On September 16, 2019, the Company declared a final liquidating distribution (the “Final Liquidating Distribution”) of $7.81 per share to the record holders of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (“Class A Shares”) as of the close of business on September 16, 2019. The Final Liquidating Distribution will be paid on or about September 18, 2019. The Final Liquidating Distribution will be the final distribution made pursuant to a plan of liquidation and dissolution of the Company, including the sale of all of the Company’s assets, that was approved by the Company’s stockholders on December 18, 2018 (the “Plan of Liquidation”).
As previously reported in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 25, 2019 and April 4, 2019, respectively, the Company paid an initial liquidating distribution on January 25, 2019 and a second liquidating distribution on April 10, 2019.
All liquidating distributions made pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, including the Final Liquidating Distribution, will be reported to each stockholder on a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year 2019. Stockholders are advised to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the liquidating distributions in light of his or her particular investment or tax circumstances.
The Company anticipates that promptly following the Final Liquidating Distribution, it will file its Articles of Dissolution with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of the State of Maryland, upon which the Company will be legally dissolved and all shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock will be cancelled and no longer deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holders thereof as stockholders will cease and terminate. In addition, the Company will file appropriate notification with the SEC to fully terminate its obligations under the U.S. securities laws.
