Kodak ( (KODK) ) has provided an update.
On January 21, 2025, Kodak‘s Board of Directors approved the termination of the Kodak Retirement Income Plan (KRIP), effective March 31, 2025, ceasing further benefit accruals. By October 14, 2025, Kodak entered into an agreement to transfer approximately $1.8 billion of pension obligations to Metropolitan Tower Life Insurance Company via a nonparticipating single premium group annuity contract. This transaction, expected to close on October 21, 2025, will cover around 27,000 participants, ensuring continued benefit payments until early 2026 when the insurer assumes full responsibility.

Any remaining liabilities will be transferred to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, with surplus assets expected to be distributed by December 2025.
