Item 8.01. Other Events
On August 29, 2012, Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (“we”) issued a press release announcing that we and the Texas Attorney General had agreed to defer a state court hearing on the Attorney General’s request for a temporary injunction and appointment of receiver until September 24, 2012.
The agreement continues the previously announced temporary restraining order, which prohibits the paying of dividends before the September 24 hearing. We had previously declared a dividend of $0.10 per share to be paid on or about September 15, 2012, to shareholders of record as of September 3, 2012. The September 24 hearing will likely determine if and when the dividend can be paid. If we are unable to pay the dividend before October 23, 2012, we must fix a new record date to pay a dividend.
The press release is furnished as an exhibit and is posted on our website (www.lphi.com).
The information in this Form 8-K under Item 8.01 and Exhibits 99.1 attached hereto are not “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor is the information incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific referencing in such filing.
