Copper Property CTL Pass Through Trust
Copper Property CTL Pass Through Trust is a liquidating real estate trust formed out of the J.C. Penney restructuring to own, lease, and ultimately sell a portfolio of former J.C. Penney retail properties and distribution centers. Its business is not to develop or operate a traditional real estate platform, but to collect rent from a single tenant, distribute cash to certificateholders, and monetize the remaining properties over time.

Liiketoiminta
Osuus liikevaihdostaLease revenue collected from Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC under the master lease structure.
Net proceeds from selling retail properties as the trust winds down its portfolio.
Other charges and reimbursements associated with property operations and lease administration.
Asiakkaat
The trust has one primary tenant customer: Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, which occupies the properties under two master leases and pays rent and related charges. Its economic beneficiaries are the certificateholders, who receive monthly distributions funded by rent and property sale proceeds. The trust also interacts with third-party buyers for property dispositions and with service providers that support administration and sales.
Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC leases the portfolio and pays rent, making it the core operating counterparty.
Investors in the trust receive monthly distributions from lease cash flow and sale proceeds.
Third-party purchasers acquire properties as the trust liquidates assets.
Trustee, manager, and professional advisors provide administration, reporting, and transaction support.
Strategia
The trust’s strategy is to collect rent, preserve liquidity, and sell properties in an orderly way to maximize recovery for certificateholders. Management is focused on enforcing the master leases, managing property-level cash flows, and completing liquidation before the trust’s scheduled termination, with contingency planning if full liquidation is delayed.
Disposition proceeds are the main source of value creation and certificateholder distributions.
The trust depends on the sole tenant for recurring cash flow until assets are sold.
The trust is designed to wind down, and extension or restructuring may be needed if sales lag.
Maantiede
The portfolio is concentrated in the United States, with 117 retail properties across 35 states and Puerto Rico as of year-end 2025. Geography matters because the trust’s sale prices, lease economics, and regulatory exposure vary by local retail market, zoning, and property condition. The trust has no meaningful international operating footprint.
Riskit
The trust is highly concentrated in one tenant, one property type, and one liquidation path, so any deterioration in JCPenney operating performance or delays in property sales can quickly affect cash flow and recovery value. Its real estate assets are illiquid and subject to local market, legal, environmental, and litigation risks, while the trust’s finite life adds execution pressure to the wind-down process.
