Case History

On August 16, 2022, Endo International plc and certain of its subsidiaries initiated voluntary prearranged Chapter 11 proceedings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”).

On March 22, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order [Docket No. 3960] (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the Fourth Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Endo International plc and its Affiliated Debtors [Docket No. 3849] (as modified, amended, or supplemented from time to time, the “Plan”).

On April 23, 2024, the Effective Date of the Plan occurred. All conditions precedent to the Effective Date of the Plan, as set forth in the Plan, were satisfied (or waived, as provided in the Plan), such that the Plan was substantially consummated.

Pursuant to the Plan and the Confirmation Order, the Endo Public Opioid Trust was established under the Endo Public Opioid Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”) to:

  1. Assume all liability for Allowed State Opioid Claims held by States and certain Territories that are not Prior Settling States (“Participating Public Opioid Claimants”);
  2. Receive and administer the Public Opioid Consideration under the terms of the Plan; and
  3. Make or cause to be made distributions on account of the State Opioid Claims held by Participating Public Opioid Claimants in accordance with the Distribution Schedule attached to the Trust Agreement as Exhibit 1.

Distributions in accordance with the Distribution Schedule are being implemented under the terms of the Plan, the Confirmation Order and the Trust Agreement under the direction of the Trustee, Bradley E. Scher.
