Lipocine Inc

On November 14, 2019, we and certain of our officers were named as defendants in a purported shareholder class action lawsuit,Solomon Abady v. Lipocine Inc. et al., 2:19-cv-00906-PMW, filed in the United District Court for the District of Utah. The complaint alleged that the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that our filing of the NDA for TLANDO to the FDA contained deficiencies and as a result the defendants’ statements about our business and operations were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis in violation of federal securities laws. The lawsuit sought certification as a class action (for a purported class of purchasers of the Company’s securities from March 27, 2019, through November 8, 2019), compensatory damages in an unspecified amount, and unspecified equitable or injunctive relief. We have insurance that covers claims of this nature. The retention amount payable by us under our policy is $1.5 million. On April 14, 2023, a judgment was issued ordering the case dismissed with prejudice and closure of the action.

We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other material legal proceedings. We may, from time to time, be involved in various legal proceedings arising from the normal course of business activities, and, while the Company has insurance that covers claims of this nature, unfavorable resolution of any of these matters could materially affect our future results of operations, cash flows, or financial position.
