Item 8.01. Other Events
On May 8, 2024, Natural Resource Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”) executed a negotiated transaction with holders of the Partnership's Class A Preferred Units ("preferred units") pursuant to which the Partnership repurchased an aggregate of 40,000 preferred units (the “Subject Units”) for $40,000,000 in cash, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions in respect of such units. Following the repurchase, the Subject Units were retired and are no longer outstanding, and all rights of the holders thereof have ceased with respect to the Subject Units. Of the originally issued 250,000 preferred units, after giving effect to this redemption and all prior redemptions, 31,666 preferred units remain outstanding. As a result of this negotiated transaction, holders of the remaining preferred units have waived their right to convert up to 33% of the outstanding preferred units for six months from the date of the negotiated transaction.
