In connection with the Motion, the Company disclosed that (i) although the Debtors have not completed their financial reporting for the 2020 fiscal year, from which the amount of such mandatory prepayment is derived, the amount of such mandatory payment is expected to be approximately $114 million and (ii) as of the end of the 2020 fiscal year, Mallinckrodt and its subsidiaries had approximately $1.07 billion of unrestricted cash on hand.
