On January 18, 2005, our wholly owned subsidiary, RCI Entertainment (New York) Inc., a New York corporation ("RCI New York") completed the acquisition of Peregrine Enterprises, Inc., a New York corporation ("Peregrine") pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement with Peregrine's sole shareholder, Philip Eisenberg (the "Stock Purchase Agreement").

The club will operate on three levels and will utilize approximately the maximum allowable 10,000 square feet, with an additional 4,000 square feet to be used for office space. We are in the process of finalizing building permits and completing other details typical of transactions of this type.
