Current Report under Regulation A - Form 1-U

Other Events

An electronic alternative trading system operated by Templum Markets LLC, an SEC-registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA and SIPC in accordance with SEC Regulation ATS (the "Templum ATS"), is intended to facilitate secondary purchases and sales of Class A ordinary shares of Masterworks issuers that were initially sold pursuant to Regulation A+ (Tier II) for Masterworks offerings that have been fully subscribed for at least 90 days. The Templum ATS can be accessed by investors through a link on the www.masterworks.com website.

The Templum ATS will now enable certain holders of the Company's Class A shares to post live bids and offers 24 hours per day seven days per week, provided that trades will actually occur only during regular trading hours that substantially mirror the trading hours on national securities exchanges. In order to execute a transaction on the Templum ATS, a buyer or seller of Class A shares must create a brokerage account with DriveWealth, LLC (the "Settling Broker"), which can be done through www.masterworks.com. To buy securities on the Templum ATS, investors must also fund the brokerage account in an amount sufficient to pay the full purchase price. Owners of Class A shares may submit a bid and ask quote to purchase or sell Class A shares, and to the extent any such bid or ask is matched with a counterparty's bid or ask through the Templum ATS, such transaction will be executed and settled by the Settling Broker. Masterworks currently expects to pay all costs and expenses associated with listing the Class A shares on the Templum ATS, establishment of brokerage accountants with the Settling Broker and trading and executing transfers of the Class A shares on the Templum ATS.

The Templum ATS or certain features of the Templum ATS will not be available to residents of certain foreign countries or "affiliates" of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

There can be no assurance that the Templum ATS will provide an effective means of selling your Class A shares. In light of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the relatively small market capitalization of the Company, we cannot guarantee that the Templum ATS will provide a reliable or effective means of price discovery. Accordingly, any posted offer prices or historical transaction information reflected on the Templum ATS should not be construed as being representative of the fair value of the Company's Class A shares or of the artwork owned by the Company.
