Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 25, 2016, FBS issued a press release announcing the closing of the Offering. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

On July 25, 2016, FBS announced that it intends to withdraw as a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), and to close, effective as of August 24, 2016, the FBS alternative trading system (the “ATS”). Following the closure of the ATS, there will no longer be a dedicated trading platform for the Company’s outstanding Tracking Stocks. A holder of shares of the Tracking Stocks may be able to sell such securities in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market through a brokerage firm or in a private transaction. However, in the OTC market, only market-makers in the Tracking Stocks are permitted to post quotes, and there is currently no indication that a market maker will initiate quotations in the Tracking Stocks in the near future.

In connection with FBS’s withdrawal as a registered broker-dealer and the closure of the FBS ATS, FBS also informed existing FBS account holders that they must transfer their accounts to a different broker on or before August 24, 2016. If an FBS account holder or its broker does not make arrangements to transfer his or her account by August 24, 2016, (i) FBS will close such account and send such account holder any cash balances by check to the address listed on such account and (ii) any shares owned by an FBS account holder at the time its account is closed will be directly registered in the account holder’s name with the Company via American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent. FBS account holders that do not make arrangements to transfer their accounts may elect to have FBS attempt to liquidate their shares of Tracking Stocks at prevailing market prices prior to the closure of the account, subject to FBS’s standard commission. FBS may be unable to liquidate the Tracking Stocks in an FBS account holder’s account in part or in full.
