Washington Prime : Other Items (Form 8-K)

Other Items.

As previously reported, on June 13, 2021 Washington Prime Group Inc. (the 'Company') and Washington Prime Group, L.P., the operating partnership of the Company, and certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the 'Company Parties') voluntarily filed petitions under chapter 11 (the 'Chapter 11 Cases') of title 11 of the United States Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the 'Bankruptcy Court'). The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered under the caption In re Washington Prime Group Inc., Case No. 21-31948 (MI).

On June 17, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Interim Order (I) Approving Notification and Hearing Procedures for Certain Transfers of and Declarations of Worthlessness with Respect to Common Stock or Preferred Stock and (II) Granting Related Relief, Docket No. 140 (the 'NOL Order'). The NOL Order is designed to assist the Company Parties in preserving certain of their tax attributes by establishing, among other things, the procedures (including notice requirements) that certain stockholders and potential stockholders must comply with regarding transfers of, or declarations of worthlessness with respect to, the Company's common stock or preferred stock, as applicable, as well as certain obligations with respect to notifying the Company Parties with respect to current stock ownership (the 'Procedures'). The terms and conditions of the Procedures were immediately effective and enforceable upon entry of the NOL Order by the Bankruptcy Court (except with respect to the Vanguard Entities for which procedures became effective at 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on June 17, 2021). Any actions in violation of the Procedures (including the notice requirements) are null and void ab initio, and (a) the person or entity making such a transfer will be required to take remedial actions specified by the Company Parties to appropriately reflect that such transfer of the Company's common stock or preferred stock, as applicable, is null and void ab initio and (b) the person or entity making such a declaration of worthlessness with respect to the Company's common stock or preferred stock, as applicable, will be required to file an amended tax return revoking such declaration and any related deduction to reflect that such declaration is void ab initio.
