Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure
As previously reported on Coram Healthcare Corporations Current Report on Form 8-K, dated July 11, 2003, two competing proposed plans of reorganization have been filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the Bankruptcy Court) in the jointly administered bankruptcy cases of Coram Healthcare Corporation (CHC) and Coram, Inc. (CI) (CHC and CI are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debtors). The two competing plans of reorganization have been proposed by (i) Arlin M. Adams, the Chapter 11 Trustee for the Debtors estates, and (ii) the Official Committee of Equity Security Holders of Coram Healthcare Corporation (the Equity Committee). Such proposed plans of reorganization, as well as modifications, supplements and amendments thereto, can be found as exhibits to CHCs Current Reports on Form 8-K previously filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
On April 23, 2004, the Equity Committee filed the Second Amendment To Second Supplement To The Second Amended Plan Of Reorganization Of The Official Committee Of Equity Security Holders Of Coram Healthcare Corporation And Coram, Inc. (the Equity Committees Second Plan Supplement) in the Bankruptcy Court in the Debtors bankruptcy cases. The Equity Committees Second Plan Supplement, which remains subject to modification or amendment, has been attached to this report as exhibit 99.1.
The two competing proposed plans of reorganization remain subject to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. Hearings to consider confirmation of such proposed plans of reorganization and any objections thereto commenced on September 30, 2003 and are ongoing. The proceedings to consider confirmation are presently scheduled to conclude on June 11, 2004. No assurances can be given that either plan will ultimately be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.
Note: Except for historical information, all other statements in this report are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The actual results of the Debtors and their operating subsidiaries (collectively the Company) may vary materially from these forward-looking statements due to important risk factors, including the Companys historical lack of profitability; uncertainties associated with the outcomes of certain pending legal matters, including the bankruptcy proceedings; the Companys leveraged financial structure; the Companys ability to comply with certain governmental regulations; the Companys need to obtain additional financing or equity; the Companys limited liquidity; the Companys dependence upon its relationships with third party payers and the prices paid by such third party payers for the Companys services; and certain other factors. Risk factors are described in greater detail in CHCs Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q Quarterly Reports and Current Reports on Form 8-K on file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
