MILLS MUSIC TRUST

NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF CASH RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS

THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED

JUNE 30, 2023 AND JUNE 30, 2022

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Background

Mills Music Trust (the “

Trust

”) was created by a Declaration of Trust, dated December 3, 1964 (the “

Declaration of Trust

”), for the purpose of acquiring from Mills Music, Inc. (“

Old Mills

”), the rights to receive payment of a deferred contingent purchase price obligation (the “

Contin

ent Portion

”) payable to Old Mills. The obligation to pay the Contingent Portion arose as the result of the sale by Old Mills of its music and lyric copyright catalogue (the “

Catalo

”) to a newly formed company pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated December 5, 1964 (the “

Asset Purchase A

reement

”). Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, payment of the Contingent Portion to the Trust continues until the end of the year in which the last copyright in the Catalogue expires and cannot be renewed.

The Contingent Portion amounts are currently payable by EMI Mills Music Inc. (“

EMI

”), the owner of the copyrighted materials contained in the Catalogue. The Trust has been advised that Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC is the administrator and manager of EMI and the Catalogue.

HSBC Bank, USA, N.A. is the Corporate Trustee of the Trust (the “

Corporate Trustee

”), and Lee Eastman and Michael E. Reiss are the Individual Trustees of the Trust (the “

Individual Trustees

” and together with the Corporate Trustee, the “

Trustees

”).

Proceeds from Contingent Portion Payments

The Trust receives quarterly payments of the Contingent Portion from EMI and distributes the amounts it receives to the registered owners of Trust certificates (the “

Unit Holders

”) representing interests in the Trust (the “

Trust Units

”), after payment of, or withholdings in connection with, expenses and liabilities of the Trust. The Declaration of Trust provides that these are the Trust’s sole responsibilities and that the Trust is prohibited from engaging in any business activities.

Payments of the Contingent Portion to the Trust are based on royalty income which the Catalogue generates. The Trust does not own the Catalogue or any copyrights or other intellectual property rights and is not responsible for collecting royalties in connection with the Catalogue. As the current owner and administrator of the Catalogue, EMI is obligated under the Asset Purchase Agreement to use its best efforts to collect all royalties, domestic and foreign, in connection with the Catalogue and to remit a portion of its royalty income to the Trust as its Contingent Portion payment obligation, in accordance with the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

Calculation of Contingent Portion

The amount of each payment of the Contingent Portion is based on a formula set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. For information regarding the calculation of the Contingent Portion and a related dispute between EMI and the Trust see “Contingent Portion Payments” under Part I — Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

Cash Distributions to Unit Holders

The Declaration of Trust provides for the distribution to the Unit Holders of all funds the Trust receives after payment of, or withholdings in connection with, expenses and liabilities of the Trust. For information regarding cash disbursements made to Unit Holders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 see the table headed “Statements of Cash Receipts and Disbursements” under Part I — Item 1, “Financial Statements”.

The Copyright Catalogue

The Catalogue is estimated to be composed of over 12,000 music titles (the “

Copyrighted Songs

”), of which approximately 1,430 produced royalty income in recent years. EMI has provided the Trust with a listing of the top 50 earning songs in the Catalogue during the 2022 calendar year (the “

Top 50 Songs

”), together with certain copyright information with respect to each of the Top 50 Songs (the “

Listing

”). A copy of the Listing, as provided by EMI, is included in the Trust’s annual report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The Listing does not include any information regarding Copyrighted Songs for the 2023 calendar year.

Accounting Policies

EMI typically makes payments to the Trust of the Contingent Portion in March, June, September and December for the prior calendar quarter. The payments received are accounted for on a cash basis, as are expenses of the Trust. The Declaration of Trust provides for the distribution of the amounts it receives in Contingent Portion payments to the Unit Holders after payment of, or withholdings in connection with, expenses and liabilities of the Trust.

Table of Contents

The Trust’s financial statements reflect only cash transactions and do not include transactions that would be recorded in financial statements presented on the accrual basis of accounting, as contemplated by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Trust does not prepare a balance sheet or a statement of cash flows.

These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The cash receipts and distributions for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2. INCOME TAXES

No provision for income taxes has been made since the liability thereof is that of the Unit Holders and not the Trust.

NOTE 3. GOVERNANCE OF THE TRUST

The Trust does not have, nor does the Declaration of Trust provide for, officers, a board of directors or any employees. HSBC Bank, USA, N.A. is the Corporate Trustee of the Trust, and Lee Eastman and Michael E. Reiss are the Individual Trustees of the Trust. Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, Trustees of the Trust serve until their removal, resignation, incapacity, or in the case of Individual Trustees, their death.

On December 23, 2014, the Trust adopted a code of ethics (as defined in Item 406 of Regulation

S-K

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933) applicable to the Individual Trustees and the trust officers of the Corporate Trustee. A copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided to any person without charge upon written request to the Trust at its administrative office, c/o HSBC BANK USA, N.A., Corporate Trust, Issuer Services, 452 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY. In addition, the Trust relies on the Corporate Trustee to abide by HSBC Bank, USA, N.A.’s Statement of Business Principles and Code of Ethics, which is available on the Corporate Trustee’s website at http://www.us.hsbc.com.

The Trust is not a corporate entity and thus does not have an Audit Committee. The Trust has established a policy with regard to audit, audit-related and certain

non-audit

engagements of its independent auditors. Under this policy, the Trust annually approves certain limited, specified recurring services which may be provided by the Trust’s accountant or independent auditors. All other engagements for services to be performed by the Trust’s independent auditors must be separately

pre-approved

by the Trust. Joel Faden acts as Chief Financial Individual providing accounting services for the Trust.

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Trustees are paid in accordance with the Declaration of Trust, which provides that each Trustee shall receive annual compensation of $2,500, provided that such aggregate compensation to the Trustees as a group may not exceed 3% of the Contingent Portion amounts received by the Trust in any year. The Declaration of Trust also provides for the reimbursement of expenses reasonably incurred in the performance of a Trustee’s duties to the Trust, including clerical and administrative services. Accordingly, the Trustees are entitled to receive annual compensation and reimbursement for services performed for the Trust, including the Corporate Trustee’s services as the Registrar and Transfer Agent of the certificates representing the Trust Units. The Declaration of Trust also provides that if a Trustee performs unusual or extraordinary services, reasonable compensation for such services shall be paid, subject to the terms and conditions of the Declaration of Trust.

Pursuant to the Declaration of Trust, disbursements were made as follows to the Trustees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022:

ITEM	2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Copyright Catalogue

The Catalogue is estimated to be composed of over 12,000 music titles, of which approximately 1,430 produced royalty income in recent years. Based on the Listing, the majority of the Trust’s receipts are derived principally from copyrights established prior to 1960 in the Unites States. The receipts fluctuate based on consumer interest in the nostalgia appeal of older songs and the overall popularity of the songs contained in the Catalogue. The Catalogue also generates royalty income in Canada and other foreign countries in which copyright is claimed.

A number of factors create uncertainties with respect to the Catalogue’s ability to continue to generate royalty income on a continuing, long-term basis for the Trust. These factors include: (i) the effect that foreign and domestic copyright laws and any changes thereto have or will have on renewal rights (e.g., vesting of renewal term rights), (ii) the length of the term of copyright protection under foreign and domestic copyright laws, (iii) reversionary rights that may affect whether EMI is able to retain its rights to the Copyrighted Songs during certain renewal terms (e.g., statutory termination of transfers or “copyright recapture”) and (iv) ongoing disputes regarding the payment and calculation of the Contingent Portion.

The Trust does not own the Catalogue or any copyrights or other intellectual property rights and is not responsible for collecting royalties in connection with the Catalogue. As the current owner and administrator of the Catalogue, EMI is obligated under the Asset Purchase Agreement to use its best efforts to collect all royalties, domestic and foreign, in connection with the Catalogue and to remit a portion of its royalty income to the Trust in accordance with its Contingent Portion payment obligation.

The Trust’s income is dependent, in part, on EMI’s ability to maintain its rights in the Copyrighted Songs through copyright protection. Although Copyrighted Songs may continue to generate royalty revenue after their copyrights have expired, in general as the copyrights for the Copyrighted Songs expire, less royalty income will be generated, and the size of each payment of the Contingent Portion will be reduced accordingly.

Based on the Listing, the Top 50 Songs obtained copyright registration under the United States Copyright Act of 1909 (the “1909 Act”) between 1926 and 1958. For copyrighted works subject to the 1909 Act, copyright law generally provides for a possible 95 years of copyright protection, subject to certain factors, including the initial registration date of each copyright and compliance with certain statutory provisions including notice and renewal. The Copyright expiration dates for the Top 50 Songs range between 2021 and 2053, as set forth in the Listing.

The Copyrighted Songs are subject to statutory rights of termination of transfers, which may impact whether EMI is able to retain its ownership of the Copyrighted Songs during their respective terms of copyright protection. For copyrights governed by the 1909 Act, this termination right vests at the end of two different renewal terms, which vary for each Copyrighted Song. As the owner of the Catalogue, EMI (and not the Trust) is responsible for administrating the Catalogue and seeking renewals of the Copyrighted Songs. The Asset Purchase Agreement provides that EMI is obligated to use its best efforts to secure renewals.

Contingent Portion Payments

Payments of the Contingent Portion to the Trust are ordinarily made on a quarterly basis, approximately two to three months after a quarter ends. The Trust distributes the amounts it receives in Contingent Portion payments to the Unit Holders after payment of, or withholdings in connection with, expenses and liabilities of the Trust.

The amount of each payment of the Contingent Portion is based on a formula provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement. Prior to the first quarter of 2010, the Contingent Portion was calculated as an amount ranging from 65% to 75% of gross royalty income from the exploitation of the Catalogue for each quarterly period, less royalty expenses. In addition, the Contingent Portion was guaranteed to be at least a minimum of $167,500 per quarter (the “Minimum Payment Obligation”).

Beginning with the first quarter of 2010, the Asset Purchase Agreement provides for certain changes with respect to the calculation of the Contingent Portion. One such change is that the Minimum Payment Obligation is no longer in effect. The Trust is also of the view that the Contingent Portion payable to the Trust changed to a fixed 75% of gross royalty income from the exploitation of the Catalogue for each quarterly period, less royalty related expenses (the “New Calculation Method”). However, EMI has disputed that the New Calculation Method is the correct interpretation of the Asset Purchase Agreement. As a result of the New Calculation Method not being applied, EMI’s payments of the Contingent Portion have been deficient, in the Trust’s view, by the following amounts (the “Underpayments”):


Quarterly Payment Period	Amount of Deficiency
March 31, 2016	$	79,889
September 30, 2016		37,529
March 31, 2017		85,359
September 30, 2017		41,557
March 31, 2018		98,901
September 30, 2018		75,712
March 31, 2019		71,489
June 30, 2019		41,786
September 30, 2019		68,571
December 31, 2019		42,572
March 31, 2020		40,025
June 30, 2020		15,557
September 30, 2020		40,085
March 31, 2021		42,742
June 30, 2021		43,148
September 30, 2021		38,846
December 31, 2021		38,112
March 31, 2022		0
June 30, 2022		70,709
September 30, 2022		83,438
December 31, 2022		0
March 31, 2023		44,908
June 30, 2023		37,491

Total	$	1,138,426

As of the date hereof, the Trust has not received the Underpayments, and EMI has expressly disagreed with the Trust. The Trust can offer no assurance that it will be able to recover any of the Underpayments or that it will resolve favorably the on-going dispute relating to the New Calculation Method with respect to future payments of the Contingent Portion.

In addition, on October 1, 2020, the Trust engaged Citrin Cooperman & Company LLP, an accounting firm specializing in auditing royalty income (“Citrin”), to conduct a special audit of the books and records of EMI administered by Sony/ATV to determine the areas and extent of underpayment, if any, of quarterly Contingent Portion payments payable to the Trust for the periods beginning January 1, 2016 and ended December 31, 2020 (the “Audit Period”). Citrin’s final report (the “Citrin Report”) was delivered to the Trustees on April 4, 2022. The Citrin Report identified multiple asserted royalty omissions and expense over-deductions from the Contingent Portion during the Audit Period in addition to the Underpayments. The Trust distributed the Citrin Report to EMI on or about April 13, 2022. EMI has disputed the findings of the Citrin Report. As part of an effort to settle any disagreement regarding the computation or payment of the Contingent Portion, including the Underpayments and the other amounts identified in the Citrin Report, on October 3, 2022, EMI and the Trust executed a Tolling Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to suspend, effective as of January 1, 2022, the running of any relevant statute of limitations applicable to any claim relating to the royalty omissions and expense over-deductions identified in the Citrin Report until June 1, 2023. On or about May 17, 2023, EMI and the Trust agreed to extend the tolling period through November 30, 2023.

The Trust can offer no assurance that it will be able to recover any of the Underpayments or other amounts identified in the Citrin Report, or that it will resolve the dispute relating to the New Calculation Method with respect to future payments of the Contingent Portion.

Recent Contingent Portion Payment

On June 1, 2023, the Trust received $216,119 ($0.7782 per Trust Unit) from EMI for royalty income generated by the Catalog during the first quarter of 2023, as compared to $207,916 ($0.7487 per Trust Unit) for the payment attributable to the first quarter of 2022.

Recent Distributions to Unit Holders

On June 26, 2023, the Trust made a distribution of $105,297 ($0.3791 per Trust Unit) to the Trust’s Unit Holders of record at the close of business on June 25, 2023. For computation details regarding the distribution please refer to the quarterly distribution report, dated June 26, 2023, attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K, filed by the Trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2023.
