Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.
On April 5, 2024 (the “Petition Date”), Desert Hawk Gold Corp. (the “Company” or the “Debtor”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”), thereby commencing Chapter 11 cases for the Company.
The Company will continue to operate its business as “debtors in possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.
The Company cannot be certain that holders of the Company’s common stock will receive any payment or other distribution on account of those shares following the Chapter 11 Cases.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
Due to the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and lack of operational funds, the Company will be unable to continue to make its annual 10-K or quarterly 10-Q filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the foreseeable future. The Company plans to resume making its annual 10-K and quarterly 10-Q filings after the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy proceedings have concluded, if operational funds are again available.
