DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

Portions of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc.’s Proxy Statement for the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders are incorporated by reference in Part III to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and CBL & Associates Limited Partnership.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (“Annual Report”) of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and CBL & Associates Limited Partnership, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2020 (“Original Filing Date”), is being filed to amend Part II, Item 5 to include disclosure regarding the issuance of unregistered common stock during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2019, which was inadvertently omitted from the original filing. This Amendment No. 1 also corrects an inadvertent typographical error that resulted in the omission of the conformed signature of Deloitte & Touche LLP on the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm contained in Exhibit 99.1. In addition, this Amendment No. 1 amends the Exhibit Index included in the original Annual Report to include new certifications by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer (Exhibits 31.5 through 31.8 and Exhibits 32.5 through 32.8).

This Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the Original Filing Date of the Annual Report, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the Original Filing Date, and, apart from the disclosure added as described above, does not modify or update in any way the disclosures made in the original Annual Report. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company” mean CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries. References to the “Operating Partnership” mean CBL & Associates Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries. The terms “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the Company or the Company and the Operating Partnership collectively, as the context requires.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Common stock of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. is traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The stock symbol is “CBL”. There were approximately 797 shareholders of record for our common stock as of February 28, 2020.

During 2019, our board of directors suspended all future dividends with respect to the Company’s outstanding common stock and preferred stock, as well as distributions with respect to the Operating Partnership’s outstanding units of partnership interest, subject to quarterly review. Future dividend distributions are subject to our actual results of operations, taxable income, economic conditions, issuances of common stock and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. For additional information, see discussion presented under the subheading “Dividends – CBL” in Note 9 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and CBL & Associates Limited Partnership. Our actual results of operations will be affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from the Properties, our operating expenses, interest expense, unanticipated capital expenditures and the ability of the Anchors and tenants at the Properties to meet their obligations for payment of rents and tenant reimbursements.

See Part III, Item 12 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and CBL & Associates Limited Partnership for information regarding securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans. The following table presents information with respect to repurchases of common stock made by us during the three months ended December 31, 2019:

Period |  | Total Number of Shares Purchased (1) |  |  | Average Price Paid per Share (2) |  |  | Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of a Publicly Announced Plan |  |  | Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plan |
Oct. 1–31, 2019 |  |  | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | — |
Nov. 1–30, 2019 |  |  | 187 |  |  |  | 1.67 |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Dec. 1–31, 2019 |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Total |  |  | 187 |  |  | $ | 1.67 |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | — |

(1) | Represents shares surrendered to the Company by employees to satisfy federal and state income tax requirements related to the vesting of shares of restricted stock.

(2) | Represents the market value of the common stock on the vesting date for the shares of restricted stock, which was used to determine the number of shares required to be surrendered to satisfy income tax withholding requirements.

Effective December 19, 2019, the Company issued an aggregate of 611,847 shares of common stock in satisfaction of exchange rights exercised by two third party limited partners in the Operating Partnership with respect to 611,847 common units in the Operating Partnership, in accordance with the Company's right to deliver either shares of the Company's common stock or their cash equivalent (as determined pursuant to the Partnership Agreement of the Operating Partnership) to complete such exchanges pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement. The Company believes that the issuance of these shares was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof because it did not involve a public offering or sale. No underwriters, brokers or finders were involved in these transactions.

Operating Partnership Units

There is no established public trading market for the Operating Partnership’s common units. On February 28, 2020, the Operating Partnership had 26,073,966 common units outstanding (comprised of 3,269,446 special common units and 22,804,520 common units) held by 65 holders of record, excluding the 175,633,044 common units held by the Company.

During the three months ended December 31, 2019, the Operating Partnership canceled the 187 common units underlying the 187 shares of common stock that were surrendered for tax obligations in conjunction with the surrender to the Company of such shares, as described above. During 2019, the Operating Partnership elected to pay less than $0.1 million in cash, at a cost of $1.316 per unit, to a holder of 72,592 common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership upon the exercise of the holder's conversion rights. Additionally, effective December 19, 2019, the Company issued an aggregate of 611,847 shares of common stock in satisfaction of conversion rights exercised by two third party limited partners in the Operating Partnership with respect to 611,847 common units in the Operating Partnership, as described above.
