ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS The Registrant announced on January 16, 2002 that it had completed the sale of the stock of its commercial production subsidiary, Chelsea Pictures, Inc. to the Chelsea Pictures management group comprised of Steve Wax, Lisa Mehling and Alison Amon (collectively the "Chelsea Management Group"). The Chelsea Management Group paid $785,000 in proceeds to the Registrant, consisting of cash at closing of $250,000 and a promissory note for $585,000. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS. (a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired Not applicable. (b) Pro Forma Financial Information The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements are filed with this report: Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2001 Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Year Ended December 31, 2000 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 This unaudited pro forma financial information sets forth the impact of the sale of the stock of the Registrant's commercial production subsidiary, Chelsea Pictures, Inc., to the Chelsea Management Group. The Chelsea Management Group paid $785,000 in proceeds to the Registrant, consisting of cash at closing of $250,000 and a promissory note of $585,000. The note is payable in variable installments over a three year term and bears interest at a variable rate. The note is secured by the acquired Chelsea Pictures, Inc. stock, and 200,000 shares of iNTELEFILM common stock held by the Chelsea Management Group. The note limits personal recourse against the Chelsea Management Group to $150,000. The Company will use the sale proceeds for working capital. The sale transaction was consummated on January 15, 2002 and will be effective January 1, 2002. The pro forma adjustments are based upon information currently available and on certain assumptions, described within the footnotes to the pro forma financial statements, that management of the Company believes are necessary and reasonable for a fair presentation of the pro forma financial information. The pro forma financial information and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 and for the interim period ended September 30, 2001. The objective of the unaudited pro forma financial information is to show what the significant effects on the historical financial statements might have been had the sale of Chelsea Pictures, Inc. occurred, for balance sheet purposes, on September 30, 2001, and, for statement of operations purposes, on January 1, 2000. However, the pro forma balance sheets are not necessarily indicative of the effects of the Company's financial position that would have been attained had the transaction occurred earlier. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations and balance sheets do not purport to present the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position as they might have been, or as they may be in the future, had the transaction occurred on the assumed date.
