Item 7.01. | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
As previously disclosed, on August 16, 2022, Endo International plc, together with certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (the “Company”), filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption In re Endo International plc, et al. (Case No. 22-22549) (JLG). The Company continues to operate its businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.
Also, as previously disclosed, on August 16, 2022, the Company entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “RSA”) with certain of its first lien creditors (the “Ad Hoc First Lien Group”). The RSA contemplated that the Company would seek to sell all or substantially all of its assets in a sale pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, and that an entity formed in a manner acceptable to the Ad Hoc First Lien Group would serve as stalking horse bidder. The RSA was later amended and restated to reflect developments in the Chapter 11 Cases.
On December 28, 2023, the Company and the Ad Hoc First Lien Group entered into the Second Amended and Restated Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Second A&R RSA”), which reflects the Company’s intention to pursue confirmation of the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Endo International plc and Its Affiliated Debtors [Docket No. 3355], subject to certain amendments that are set forth in an exhibit to the Second A&R RSA (as may be further modified, amended, or supplemented from time to time, the “Proposed Plan”) and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby. The Second A&R RSA was filed in the Bankruptcy Court as docket number 3482 together with certain exhibits, including amended and restated backstop commitment agreements (the “A&R BCAs”) entered into in connection with the Proposed Plan. The Company’s entry into and performance under the A&R BCAs is subject to approval of the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurance that the Company’s entry and performance under the A&R BCAs will be approved in the current or any form of the A&R BCAs.
The Second A&R RSA and the A&R BCAs were shared under NDA with certain members of the Ad Hoc First Lien Group. Pursuant to the NDA, the termination of which occurred upon execution of the Second A&R RSA, the Company publicly disclosed each of the documents shared by filing with the Bankruptcy Court.
