Other Events. On July 26, 1996, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, entitled Choices Entertainment --------------------- Corporation v. Carl Shaifer et al., Civil Action No. 1:96-CV-01753, seeking - - - ---------------------------------- declaratory and injunctive relief against a group of shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholder Group") for alleged violations of the federal securities laws. The Shareholder Group filed a Solicitation Statement (the "Solicitation Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 1996, in connection with the Shareholder Group's solicitation of written consents from other shareholders for the purpose of removing and replacing the Board of Directors of the Company without the holding of a meeting. The Company believes that the Solicitation Statement contains material misleading statements and omissions of material facts, including the failure to disclose serious conflicts of interests of the Shareholder Group and of their director nominees to the Board, that the Shareholder Group has failed to file a Schedule 13D in accordance with the requirements of the federal securities laws, and that any consents obtained by the Shareholder Group will have been obtained in violation of such laws and are invalid. On July 29, 1996, the Shareholders Group delivered written consents to the Company, which the Shareholder Group has asserted are sufficient to remove and replace the Company's present Board of Directors with the nominees of the Shareholder Group, and such nominees have attempted to assert control and to terminate the employment of existing management. The Company considers the consents to be invalid and, therefore, has not recognized the actions purported to have been taken. The Company has determined to hold an annual meeting of shareholders on December 20, 1996, for the election of directors and for action upon such other matters as shall be determined. 2 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
