Item 8.01.   Other Events.

 
In 2005, Mannatech, Incorporated (“Mannatech”) director Marlin Ray Robbins pledged 1,400,000 shares of Mannatech common stock as collateral for a loan.  The lender of the loan has since been placed under receivership as a result of an action filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission against the lender for allegedly fraudulently liquidating stock pledged by borrowers such as Mr. Robbins.  Neither Mannatech nor Mr. Robbins was 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 2011 claims objection, it appeared unlikely that the shares were still held by the lender or that Mr. Robbins would regain possession of the shares.  On August 22, 2011, the court in the receivership proceeding issued an order approving the receiver’s objections to Mr. Robbins’ claims, and as a result Mannatech deems the pledged shares to no longer be held by Mr. Robbins.  Mr. Robbins now owns 590,000 shares of Mannatech common stock representing approximately 2.2% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of August 22, 2011.
