Securities registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Act: None (1)

Indicate by check mark whether the registrant is an emerging growth company as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933 (§230.405 of this chapter) or Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (§240.12b-2 of this chapter).

As previously disclosed, on August 16, 2022, Endo International plc, together with certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (the “Company,” “Endo,” or the “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption In re Endo International plc, et al. (Case No. 22-22549) (JLG). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

On December 19, 2023, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court:

Copies of the Proposed Plan, Proposed Disclosure Statement, Disclosure Statement Motion, and all other documents filed in the Chapter 11 Cases are available on the website of the Debtors’ claims and noticing agent at https://restructuring.ra.kroll.com/Endo (the “Case Website”).

The Proposed Plan contemplates the transfer of ownership of Endo and its assets to Endo’s first lien creditors. The Proposed Plan also incorporates material settlements in principle reached with a number of the Debtors’ key constituencies, including the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors and the Official Committee of Opioid Claimants. The Proposed Plan and Proposed Disclosure Statement remain subject to ongoing negotiation and amended versions of both documents may be filed in the future.

A hearing on the Disclosure Statement Motion (the “Disclosure Statement Hearing”) is anticipated to be held on January 9, 2024, or at such later date as set by the Bankruptcy Court and displayed on the Case Website. If the Bankruptcy Court approves the Disclosure Statement Motion, Endo will solicit its creditors’ votes on the Proposed Plan. The Bankruptcy Court will consider confirmation of the Proposed Plan at a date to be set following the Disclosure Statement Hearing.

There can be no assurance that the Proposed Plan will be approved by the Bankruptcy Court or that the Debtors will be successful in consummating any of the transactions contemplated by the Proposed Plan. Bankruptcy law does not permit solicitation of acceptances of a proposed chapter 11 plan of reorganization until a bankruptcy court approves a disclosure statement relating to the plan. Accordingly, neither the Debtors’ filing of the Proposed Plan and Proposed Disclosure Statement, nor this Current Report on Form 8-K, is a solicitation of votes to accept or reject the Proposed Plan. Any such solicitation will be made pursuant to and in accordance with applicable law, including orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

The following exhibits are being filed herewith:
