Item 3.  Bankruptcy or Receivership

         On December 23, 2003, RG Global Lifestyles, Inc., (the "Company")
formerly known as The L. L. Knickerbocker Co., Inc., ("LLK"), commenced a
distribution of new shares to the former shareholders of LLK and its creditors.
The distribution was made pursuant to the Debtor's and Committee's Third Amended
Joint Chapter 11 Plan (the "Plan") which was confirmed by an order of the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California entered on August
15, 2002 (the "Order"). The Plan became effective September 6, 2002.

         Pursuant to the Plan, all outstanding shares of capital stock in LLK
and securities convertible into capital stock of LLK were canceled and are being
replaced by new shares of common stock in the Company. The Plan provides that
the new shares will be distributed as follows: 5% to the former shareholders of
LLK as a group, 5% to John Wolfe, as the Liquidating Trustee for the benefit of
the unsecured creditors of LLK, and 90% to RG International Ltd. ("RG"), or its
designee or assignee. The total number of shares outstanding immediately
following completion of the distribution will be 20 million with 1 million
shares being distributed to the former shareholders of LLK, 1 million shares
being distributed to the Liquidating Trustee, and 18 million shares being
distributed to Pacific Century Investments, Ltd. as designee of RG.

         Copies of the Order and the Plan are attached to this report as
Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively.
