Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously disclosed, on August 5, 2019 (the “Petition Date”), iPic Entertainment Inc. (“iPic” or the “Company”) and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together with iPic, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Petitions”) under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”), for which joint administration has been sought (the “Chapter 11 Cases”), under the caption In re: iPic-Gold Class Entertainment, LLC, et al Case No. 19-11737.

In connection with the Bankruptcy Petitions, on October 17, 2019, the Company conducted, pursuant to bid procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court, an auction (the “Auction”) under Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code relating to the disposition of substantially all of the Debtor’s assets.

The bid submitted by iPic Theaters, LLC (the “Purchaser”), an affiliate of the Teachers’ Retirement System of Alabama (“TRSA”) and the Employees’ Retirement System of Alabama (“ERSA”), the Debtor’s largest creditor and a significant stockholder of the Company, was the winning bid (the “Winning Bid”). On November 15, 2019, the Purchaser acquired substantially all of the Debtors’ assets (the “Purchased Assets”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) by and among iPic-Gold Class Entertainment, LLC, iPic Gold Class Holdings LLC, iPic Media LLC, Delray Beach Holdings, LLC, iPic Texas, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”) and the Purchaser. Consideration for the Purchased Assets consists of the Debtors receiving an offsetting credit against the balances due under the Debtors’ postpetition financing facility, and the prepetition indebtedness of the Sellers to TRSA and ERSA in an aggregate amount equal to $40 million. Prior to the closing, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the sale of the Purchased Assets.

Based on the assets remaining in the Debtors’ estate, the Company does not expect that any assets of the estate will be available for distribution to stockholders of the Company.

The foregoing description of the Asset Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Asset Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

The disclosures under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

Effective November 15, 2019, each of Hamid Hashemi, Paul Safran, Andre Loehrer and Clark Woods resigned as executive officers of the Company. Effective upon the Closing, the Board reduced its size to three directors and Hamid Hashemi and Robert Kirby resigned as directors of the Company. William Nolan, of FTI Consulting, Inc., the Company’s financial advisor, will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Restructuring Officer.

The resignations described above were a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and not the result of any disagreement with management, the Company or its operations, policies or practices.

Item 8.01 Other Events

On November 18, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the transaction. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
