As previously disclosed, Familymeds Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), is operating under a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution adopted by its shareholders on March 30, 2007 (the “Plan”), and consistent with such Plan has sold substantially all of its assets, filed articles of dissolution with the State of Nevada and closed its stock transfer books. The Company has 6,962,171 issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
The Company made an initial liquidating distribution of $0.70 per share on August 10, 2007 to shareholders of record on July 31, 2007 (the “Shareholders of Record”). The Company currently anticipates making a second liquidating distribution of $0.25 per share to Shareholders of Record before the end of December 2007.
On November 9, 2007, McKesson Corporation filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleging among other things that the Company had breached the Supply Agreement between the Company and McKesson by, among other things, failing to pay McKesson approximately $725,000 which McKesson claims is due for product purchased pursuant to the Supply Agreement. The Company has filed a response and counter claim to the complaint demanding, among other things, that McKesson provide to the Company documentation necessary to determine the amounts due to McKesson, including whether McKesson has overcharged the Company and/or failed to properly issue the Company credits under the Agreement. Although the Company has recorded the entire amount McKesson claims it is due in its statement of net assets as of June 30, 2007, it disputes this amount and intends to defend this action vigorously.
As previously disclosed, since announcing the Plan, certain vendors, landlords and outside parties have made claims against the Company for alleged liabilities totaling approximately $400,000, for which the Company had not previously reserved. The statement of net assets as of June 30, 2007 includes accruals for these claims. The Company is attempting to settle these claims, along with other miscellaneous claims arising in the ordinary course of its business (such as a wrongful termination claim by an employee and various professional liability claims). It believes part of these settlements will be covered by insurance. The total amount of these claims for which the Company will be responsible cannot be predicted at this time.
| · | the outcome of claims made against the Company; and |
| · | expected cash distributions to shareholders and the timing of those distributions. |

The statements contained in this Form 8-K that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
