On April 11, 2011, Marlin Ray Robbins, one of the directors of Mannatech, Incorporated (the “Company”), received notice regarding the status of shares of the Company’s common stock pledged by Mr. Robbins to a lender which has been placed in receivership as a result of a an action filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) against the lender (the “Receivership”). On April 11, 2011, Mr. Robbins received a copy of the claims objection filed by the receiver in such matter (the “Receiver”). The Receiver alleges that the lender perpetrated a fraudulent stock-based loan program, in which the lender would lend money to borrowers secured by the value of stock transferred by the borrowers to the lender. The Receiver alleges further that, rather than holding the stock as collateral for the loans, the lender would liquidate the stock and use the proceeds to fund the borrower’s loan. Mr. Robbins is one of the targets of such fraud. In 2005, he pledged 1,400,000 of his shares of the Company’s common stock to secure a loan from the lender. Neither the Company nor Mr. Robbins has been informed during the course of the Receivership whether the shares pledged by Mr. Robbins had been fraudulently sold by the lender. However, given the positions asserted by the Receiver in its recent claims objection, it is unlikely that the shares are still held by the lender or that Mr. Robbins will regain possession of the shares. In a hearing scheduled for June 28, 2011, the court will rule on the Receiver’s claims objections and the facts alleged therein. In the event the court grants the Receiver’s claims objections, then the Company will deem the pledged shares to no longer be held by Mr. Robbins.
A copy of the Company’s press release announcing the status of the Receivership is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
