DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR PRINCIPAL OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF PRINCIPAL OFFICERS. (a) On February 3, 2005, Alain Kardos resigned as a director of Image Innovations Holdings, Inc. (the "Registrant"), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Image Innovations, Inc. (the "Subsidiary"). (See Exhibits 17.1 and 17.2) Mr. Kardos cited (i) his concern with the corporate governance of the Registrant and its business ethics as they relate to his alleged termination as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant and the Subsidiary on October 19, 2004, and (ii) the alleged refusal of the Registrant to turn over to him certificates representing 700,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock, which he claims to beneficially own. On February 8, 2005, Alain Kardos also resigned as a director of Image Innovations Sports & Entertainment Inc. ("Image Sports"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant in two letters dated February 8, 2005, which were repetitious of the prior communications. (Exhibits 17.3 and 17.4) (b) On February 9, 2005, the Registrant's board of directors authorized, approved, ratified and confirmed the termination of employment of Alain Kardos in all capacities as an officer and employee of the Corporation and the Subsidiary, including such positions that he held as at February 9, 2005. ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS. On January 31, 2005, Mr. Kardos filed an action in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, naming the Registrant, the Subsidiary and Derick Sinclair, Chief Financial Officer of the Registrant and Subsidiary, as defendants. Mr. Kardos alleged (i) that the defendants wrongfully refused or neglected to return to him certificates representing 700,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock and (ii) that he was wrongfully dismissed from his position as an officer and employee of the Registrant and the Subsidiary on October 21, 2004. Mr. Kardos seeks: a. a declaration that the 700,000 shares and share certificates evidencing them are his property; b. an injunction restraining and enjoining the defendants, and their directors, officers, employees, servants, agents and contractors, or others with knowledge of the injunction, from directly or through any other, selling, disposing of or in way dealing with the shares or share certificates without the consent of Mr. Kardos; c. an order for the delivery by the defendants to Mr. Kardos, of the share certificates; d. damages for their detention and/or conversion; e. such further and other relief as the Court may deem just. The Registrant believes that Mr. Kardos' allegations are erroneous and that his claims are without merit. The Registrant intends to vigorously defend the action. Mr. Kardos' claim that he is entitled to 700,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock is disputed by the third party, which possesses the shares. ITEM 9.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.
