Item 1.03Bankruptcy or Receivership.

 

As disclosed by SFX Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) in its Current Report on Form 8-K, dated as of February 1, 2016, the Company and substantially all of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and two foreign holding company subsidiaries (such subsidiaries, the “Filing Subsidiaries” and, together with the Company, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the U.S. Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The cases are being jointly administered under the caption In re SFX Entertainment, Inc., et al, Case No. 16-10238 (MFW).

 

On November 15, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Confirmation Order”), attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, confirming the Debtors’ Fifth Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization dated September 30, 2016, as modified (the “Plan”), in the form attached as Exhibit “A” to the Confirmation Order. The Plan incorporates by reference certain documents filed with the Bankruptcy Court as part of the “Plan Supplement.” A copy of the Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.2.

 

On December 2, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Debtors consummated their reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code and the Plan became effective. Pursuant to the Plan and on the Effective Date, all outstanding equity securities of the Company outstanding prior to the Effective Date were canceled, without the payment of any amount or other consideration to the holders thereof.  On December 2, 2016, the Company is filing a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to effect the deregistration of its common stock. As a result, the previously outstanding common stock will no longer be outstanding, there will no longer be a trading market for the Company’s common stock and the Company will cease to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

On December 2, 2016, the Company filed a Notice of Effective Date with the Bankruptcy Court.

The information set forth above in Item 1.03 of this Current Report is 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.

 

On the Effective Date, by operation of the Plan, all incumbent board members ceased to serve as directors of the Company: Messrs. Robert F.X. Sillerman, Mitchell Slater, Frank E. Barnes III, Andrew N. Bazos, Timothy H. Bishop, Pasquale Manocchia, Michael Meyer and John Miller.

 

On the Effective Date, by operation of the Plan, Randy Phillips was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer and Charles Ciongoli was appointed Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. A new board of directors was installed as set forth in the Plan Supplement.
