Item 1.03. Bankruptcy or Receivership.

On November 10, 2008, Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On August 16, 2010, Debtors filed their First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, and on October 25, 2010 Debtors filed the First Modification to the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (collectively and as amended and supplemented, the “Plan”). On October 27, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court held a Confirmation hearing and confirmed the Plan, and on November 2, 2010 the Bankruptcy Court entered an Order Confirming Debtors’ First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Confirmation Order”), which approved and confirmed the Plan, as modified by the Confirmation Order. In connection with the confirmation hearing all creditor classes deemed “impaired” pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code voted to support the Plan.

The Debtors anticipate that they will likely emerge from Chapter 11 protection on or about November 17, 2010 (the actual date of emergence, the “Effective Date”). Although Debtors anticipate that all conditions that the Debtors must satisfy before the Effective Date, other than the passage of time, will have been satisfied, the Debtors can make no assurances as to when, or ultimately if, the Plan will become effective. It is also possible that technical amendments could be made to the Plan.

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Plan. This summary highlights only certain substantive provisions of the Plan and is not intended to be a complete description of the Plan. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, the First Modification to the Plan, and the Confirmation Order, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein. All capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined in this Current Report on Form 8-K have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

Plan of Reorganization

The Plan provides for, among other things, a restructuring of pre-petition debt, as follows: (i) approximately $33.1 million of secured indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s prepetition debt instruments; (ii) approximately $26.2 million of unsecured indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s prepetition debt instruments through either issuance of a new interest bearing unsecured note or conversion into the Company’s common stock; and (iii) approximately $9.0 million in general unsecured indebtedness through either issuance of a new 40-month interest bearing unsecured note or conversion into the Company’s common stock. All outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock will remain issued and outstanding at and after the Effective Date.

Capital Structure

As of the effectiveness of the Plan, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation will authorize the Company to issue up to 150,000,000 shares of preferred stock and up to 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and each share of Company common stock outstanding immediately before the effectiveness of the Plan will, under the terms of the Plan, remain outstanding after effectiveness. The Plan provides for the issuance of shares of common stock in connection with the completion of the Plan, at the election of certain classes of creditors. No preferred stock is to be issued in connection with the Plan.

Upon the Effective Date, the Company’s capital structure would consist of the following:

 

Common Stock (Par value $0.001) Issued and Outstanding:

     59,548,208 Shares   

Common Stock Reserved for Issuance to Creditors Pursuant to Plan(1):

     46,763,106 Shares   

(1) These shares are reserved for possible issuance to creditors in conversion of secured and unsecured debt instruments (including debt convertible at the election of creditors and in some instances of the Company), elimination of outstanding warrants, and in conversion of general unsecured obligations at a conservative assumed conversion price of $0.90 per share. The number of shares of common stock actually issued under the Plan will depend upon a number of variable factors, including market price of the Company’s common stock and elections made by various creditor parties, and in certain instance elections made by the Company.

Classification and Treatment of Claims and Equity Interests

The classification and treatment of all Claims and Equity Interests in the Debtors are summarized in Articles 3, 4 & 5 of the Plan.

Assets and Liabilities

Information as to the Company’s assets and liabilities as of the most recent practicable date is contained in the Company’s Balance Sheet dated September 30, 2010 (unaudited) attached as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
