Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.

On April 13, 2023, PLx Pharma Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, PLx Opco Inc. (together with the Company, the "Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions (Case Nos. 23-10456 and 23-10457) (the "Chapter 11 Cases") for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). As previously disclosed, on April 12, 2023, the Debtors entered into a stalking horse asset purchase agreement with PLx Acquisition Company, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Greenwood Brands, LLC, to acquire substantially all of the Sellers' assets (the "Sale"). The proposed Sale will be conducted through a Bankruptcy Court-supervised process pursuant to Bankruptcy Court-approved bidding procedures, and is subject to the receipt of higher or better offers from competing bidders at an auction, approval of the sale by the Bankruptcy Court, and the satisfaction of certain conditions.

In addition to the petitions, the Debtors have filed, among other things, a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to jointly administer the Chapter 11 Cases under the caption In re: PLx Pharma Inc., et. al. Each of the Debtors continue to operate its business as a "debtor-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 Debtors are seeking approval of a variety of "first day" motions containing customary relief intended to enable the Debtors to continue ordinary course operations during the Chapter 11 Cases.

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.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Trading in the Company's Securities

The Company cautions that trading in the Company's common stock during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company's common stock may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders of the Company's common stock in the Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its common stock.
