(1) On April 19, 2023, Lannett Company, Inc. received a written notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notifying LCI that it would commence proceedings to delist our common stock and our common stock was suspended from trading. On April 20, 2023, our common stock began trading over-the-counter under the symbol “LCIN.” LCI does not intend to appeal the decision and expects that the NYSE will file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to delist our common stock from trading and to remove it from registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The delisting would then become effective 10 days after the filing of the Form 25. In accordance with Rule 12d2-2 of the Exchange Act, the de-registration of our common stock under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act would become effective 90 days, or such shorter period as the SEC may determine, from the date of the Form 25 filing.

Item 1.02

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously disclosed, Lannett Company, Inc. (“LCI”) and certain subsidiaries entered into a restructuring support agreement, dated as of April 30, 2023 (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”), under which certain of the Company’s creditors agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to support a prepackaged chapter 11 plan (the “Plan”) to implement a financial restructuring of LCI’s existing indebtedness (the “Restructuring”) to be implemented through the commencement of voluntarily chapter 11 cases pursuant to title 11 of the United States Code (such cases, the “Chapter 11 Cases”).

Payoff Letter

To facilitate the Restructuring, on May 1, 2023, the Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of December 7, 2020 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among LCI, the other credit parties party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Administrative Agent”), was terminated (other than with respect to provisions of the Credit Agreement regarding Letters of Credit (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that remain outstanding and customary obligations that expressly survived by their terms) upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a $1.95 million payment from LCI, comprising (i) a payoff amount representing principal, interest and expenses and fees of the Administrative Agent and the lenders and (ii) cash to collateralize the outstanding Letters of Credit to be held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the lenders with Revolving Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The payment made by LCI in connection with the termination of the Credit Agreement was pursuant to a payoff letter with the Administrative Agent.

Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

LCI cautions that trading in its securities now and during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is and will be highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for these securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by the holders in the Chapter 11 Cases. LCI expects, based on the agreed upon terms in the Restructuring Support Agreement, that its stockholders and other equityholders will experience a complete loss on their investment.

Disclosure Statement

Pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, LCI commenced the solicitation of votes on the Plan (the “Solicitation”) on May 2, 2023. In connection with the Solicitation, the Plan and a disclosure statement related thereto (the “Disclosure Statement”) was distributed to certain creditors of LCI that are entitled to vote under the Plan. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or buy, nor the solicitation of an offer to sell or buy, any securities referred to herein, nor is this Current Report on Form 8-K a solicitation of consents to or votes to accept the Plan. Any solicitation or offer will only be made pursuant to the Disclosure Statement and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Disclosure Statement, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. You should not assume that the information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K or the accompanying Exhibits is accurate as of any date other than the date of each such document. Our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and the assumptions that were utilized may have changed since those dates.
