Item 8.01 Other Events.

Mills Music Trust (the “Trust”) received an usually low contingent portion payment of $22,384 (or $0.0806 per Trust Unit) for the first quarter of 2013 (the “Q1 Distribution Period”) from EMI Mills Music, Inc., an affiliate of EMI Music Publishing (“EMI”).

The full amount received by the Trust for the Q1 Distribution Period is being held in reserve by the Corporate Trustee to pay administrative Trust expenses in accordance with the Trust’s governing document, the Declaration of Trust, dated December 3, 1964. As a result, the Trust will not make any distributions to the holders (the “Unit Holders”) of Trust Certificates representing interests in the Trust for the Q1 Distribution Period.

EMI has advised the Corporate Trustee that the reason for the low payment is an expense charged by EMI to the Trust in connection with an audit settlement relating to certain Leroy Anderson copyrights. In addition, EMI has informed the Corporate Trustee that EMI expects an additional expense to be charged to the Trust in the second quarter of 2013 in connection with the Leroy Anderson audit settlement.

A quarterly distribution report being provided to Unit Holders in connection with the Q1 Distribution Period is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
