Other Events.

 

On February 26, 2021, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) issued an order (the “Preliminary Order”) providing for preliminary approval of the proposed settlement of the claims asserted nominally on behalf of Impinj, Inc. (the “Company”) against the individual defendants named in the previously disclosed stockholder derivative action entitled In re Impinj, Inc. Derivative Litigation (C.A. No. 18-cv-01686-RGA) pending before the Court in accordance with the Stipulation of Settlement, dated July 10, 2020 (the “Stipulation of Settlement”). The Stipulation of Settlement calls for the Company to adopt certain governance changes and for the Company’s insurer to pay plaintiff’s counsel up to $900,000 in attorneys’ fees. The Preliminary Order set a final settlement approval hearing for May 11, 2021.

As required by the Preliminary Order, the Company issued a press release providing notice of the Preliminary Order and Stipulated of Settlement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1, and is filing the Stipulation of Settlement and the Notice of Proposed Settlement of Derivative Action (the “Notice”) with this Current Report on Form 8-K, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
