Item 8.01. Other Events

Change to Exchange Listing

On December 31, 2024, Volatility Shares LLC, on behalf of VS Trust (the “Trust”) issued a press release announcing a reverse share split (a “Reverse Split”) on one of the Trust’s series, specifically 2x Long VIX Futures (Cboe BZX Exchange symbol: UVIX (the “Fund”). The Reverse Split will not change the value of a shareholder’s investment.

The Fund will execute a 1 for 10 Reverse Split of its shares. The Reverse Split will be effective at the market open on January 15, 2025, when the Fund begins trading at its respective post-Reverse Split prices. The ticker symbol for the Fund will not change, but the Fund will be issued a new CUSIP number: 92891H606. The Reverse Split will increase the price per share of the Fund with a proportionate decrease in the number of shares outstanding. Specifically, every 10 pre-Reverse Split shares held by a Fund shareholder will result in the receipt of one post-Reverse Split share, which will be priced 10 times higher than the net asset value of a pre-Reverse Split share.

For Fund shareholders who hold quantities of shares that are not an exact multiple of the applicable Reverse Split ratio ( i.e. , not a multiple of 10), the Reverse Split will result in the creation of a fractional share. Post-Reverse Split fractional shares will be redeemed for cash and sent to the shareholder’s broker of record. This redemption may cause some shareholders to realize gains or losses, which could be a taxable event for those shareholders.

The Sponsor announced the foregoing via a press release dated December 31, 2024. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.
