Item 5. Other Events
On December 7, 1998, Prolong International Corporation, a Nevada
corporation (the "Company"), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (File No. 001-
14123, the "Current Report") that disclosed, among other things, pending
litigation filed by Michael Walczak et al., on behalf of themselves and other
similarly situated shareholders of EPL Pro-Long, Inc. ("EPL"), in the U.S.
District Court in San Diego, California (the "Court") against the Company, its
wholly-owned operating subsidiary Prolong Super Lubricants, Inc. ("PSL"), EPL
and each of their respective former and current officers and directors. The
Current Report is incorporated herein by this reference. On December 14, 1998,
the Court held a hearing on whether a preliminary injunction should be issued in
connection with this matter. At such hearing, the Court ordered a further
hearing on December 30, 1998 regarding the issuance of a preliminary injunction.
In addition, the Court ordered certain discovery and further briefing regarding
the issuance of a preliminary injunction to be completed prior to the hearing on
December 30, 1998. The Company and PSL and their respective current officers
and directors continue to believe that there is no merit to the plaintiffs'
claims as to any of the defendants and plan to vigorously defend against such
claims.
