Item 7.01Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On Monday, April 6, 2015, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “Court”) held a hearing on the motion of the Chapter 11 Trustee (the “Trustee”) requesting authority to (1) amend company documents as necessary to appoint the Trustee as sole director of Life Partners, Inc. (“LPI”) and LPI Financial Services, Inc. (“LPIFS”), the operating subsidiaries of Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (“LPHI”), and (2) if the Trustee chooses to do so, place LPI, LPIFS, and any other direct and indirect subsidiary into bankruptcy.

 

The Court heard the Trustee’s testimony regarding the status of the Trustee’s initial work as Trustee of LPHI, including the Trustee’s efforts to:

 

·Investigate LPHI’s business enterprise, and prior business practices, with a particular emphasis on investigating the allegations that resulted in the judgment entered in the SEC Action and led to the Trustee’s appointment;

 

·Analyze and establish controls over the company’s current day-to-day business operations;

 

·Formulate and implement an operational budget; and

 

·Build a comprehensive list of creditors, investors and other parties in interest so that notice of the bankruptcy and other developments may be provided as required by law.

 

The Court granted the motion, and the Trustee is moving forward to prepare to place LPI and LPIFS into bankruptcy.

 

The Trustee and his team will continue to work diligently to review the entities’ books, records and the life insurance policies; be mindful of fees and expenses; and endeavor to keep open lines of communication with the relevant parties, including the investors.

 

Please keep in mind that communicating with every investor would be prohibitively expensive and therefore not practical. Therefore, in addition to communication with the official committee of unsecured creditors, the Trustee will regularly post and update information on the Trustee’s website (lphitrustee.com), which will include a list of Frequently Asked Questions.
