Item 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
On March 22, 2011, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization for BNA Subsidiaries, LLC. The Court also confirmed the sale of substantially all of BNA Subsidiaries, LLC’s assets to The Bureau of National Affairs, Inc. (the Company) as consideration for the Company’s debtor-in-possession facility claim and intercompany claim. The Company will receive 100 percent of the equity in the reorganized BNA Subsidiaries, LLC. The confirmation order is the last step in BNA Subsidiaries, LLC’s Chapter 11 restructuring. BNA Subsidiaries, LLC will emerge from Chapter 11 when the plan becomes effective, which is expected to occur on March 30, 2011. At that time, BNA Subsidiaries, LLC will be renamed Kennedy Information, LLC.
