Note 9 — Retirement Plans

 

GlassBridge and the U.S. Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”) entered into an agreement on May 13, 2019 to terminate the Imation Cash Balance Pension Plan (the “Plan”) based on the PBGC’s findings that (i) the Plan did not meet the minimum funding standard required under Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; (ii) the Plan would be unable to pay benefits when due and (iii) the Plan should be terminated in order to protect the interests of the Plan participants. GlassBridge and all other members of the Company’s controlled group (within the meaning of 29 U.S.C. §1301(a)(14)) (collectively, and including the Company, the “Controlled Group Members”)) were jointly and severally liable to the PBGC for all liabilities under Title IV of ERISA in connection with the Plan’s termination, including unfunded benefit liabilities, due and unpaid Plan contributions, premiums, and interest on each of the foregoing (the “Pension Liabilities”), as a result of which a lien in favor of the Plan, on all property of each Controlled Group Member, arose and was perfected by PBGC (the “Lien”). On October 1, 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (“Settlement Agreement”) with the PBGC. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, GlassBridge paid $3,000,000 in cash to PBGC on October 3, 2019 (the “Settlement Payment”). Per the terms of the Settlement Agreement and following the Settlement Payment on October 3, 2019, the PBGC released all Controlled Group Members from the Lien, as of January 6, 2020.
