* On October 16, 2020, Aaron’s, Inc. (“Aaron’s”) completed the holding company formation. In the holding company formation, Aaron’s became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Aaron’s Holdings Company, Inc. (“HoldCo”) and thereafter converted to a limited liability company, Aaron’s, LLC. The holding company formation was effected through a merger pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated May 1, 2020, among Aaron’s, HoldCo and Aaron’s Merger Sub, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, Merger Sub merged with and into Aaron’s and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased (the “Merger”), with Aaron’s as the surviving corporation in the Merger and continuing its existence as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo. The Merger constitutes a succession for purposes of Rule 12g-3(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). This Form 15 relates solely to the reporting obligations of Aaron’s and does not affect the reporting obligations of HoldCo, which is the successor registrant to Aaron’s under the Exchange Act.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Aaron’s, LLC, has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
