As the registrant previously announced, on October 31, 2005, the petitioners in the court action styled Danford L. Martin, et al. v. FirstPlus Financial Group, Inc., et al., in the Second Judicial District Court for the State of Nevada (the “District Court”), filed an Emergency Motion to Continue Date of Election of Directors. The election of directors was previously scheduled to occur at the registrant’s 2005 Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Special Meeting”) on November 16, 2005. Despite the registrant’s objections, the District Court agreed to continue the election.
On November 15, 2005, the registrant and the petitioners participated in a status hearing at the District Court. At the hearing, upon the request of the petitioners and again over the Company’s objections, the District Court reset the meeting date for January 13, 2006. To comply with the District Court’s order, the registrant will have to reset the record date, originally set for October 10, 2005. The registrant is considering available remedies to maintain the current record date and have the Special Meeting and election of directors by December 9, 2005. The registrant intends to provide official notification of changes regarding the Special Meeting to shareholders of record for the Special Meeting as soon as practicable.
