Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed, Icahn Enterprises L.P. (“IEP” or the “Company”) was contacted on May 3, 2023 by the U.S. Attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”) and on June 21, 2023 by the staff of the Division of Enforcement of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), seeking production of information relating to the Company and certain of its affiliates.

 

On August 19, 2024, the Company and Carl C. Icahn, Chairman of the Board of the Company’s general partner, entered into settlement agreements with the SEC in connection with its inquiry previously disclosed by the Company. In connection with that settlement, the SEC entered an order in an administrative proceeding that contains non-scienter based findings that IEP failed to disclose in its Forms 10-K for the years 2018, 2019 and 2020 that Mr. Icahn pledged IEP securities as collateral to secure personal margin loans as required by Item 403(b) of Regulation S-K. The order relating to Mr. Icahn contains non-scienter based findings that, while Mr. Icahn’s prior Schedule 13D filings generally disclosed that he had pledged IEP depository units as collateral for personal margin loans, subsequent Schedule 13D filings were not amended to describe loan agreements and amendments to loan agreements or to attach guarantees as required by Items 6 and 7 of Schedule 13D. Without admitting or denying the SEC’s allegations (other than with respect to the SEC’s jurisdiction), under the terms of the settlements, (i) IEP consented to the entry of an order requiring it to pay a civil penalty of $1.5 million and to cease and desist from violations and any future violations of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 13a-1 thereunder, and (ii) Mr. Icahn consented to the entry of an order requiring him to pay a civil penalty of $500,000 and to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 13(d)(2) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-2(a) thereunder.

 

With respect to the request from the U.S. Attorney’s office for the SDNY, the Company produced documents in response to that inquiry and has had no substantive communication with the U.S. Attorney’s office since the initial inquiry on May 3, 2023.
