ITEM 1
- ------
     At a special  meeting  of the  shareholders  of  Kenwin  Shops,  Inc.  (the
"Registrant")   held  on  November  21,  1996  (the  "Special   Meeting"),   the
shareholders   approved  an  amendment  to  the   Registrant's   Certificate  of
Incorporation to reduce the par value of the Registrant's  Common Stock ("Common
Stock")  from one ($1.00)  dollar per share to one ($0.01)  cent per share.  The
shareholders  also  approved  the  execution  of  a  Management  Agreement  (the
"Management  Agreement")  between the  Registrant  and D&A  Funding  Corporation
("D&A")  pursuant to which D&A assumed  control of the day to day  operations of
Registrant  and  supplied  certain   management   services  to  Registrant.   As
compensation for these services, D&A is to be paid an annual fee of $50,000 plus
2% of the  cost  of  merchandise  shipped  to  the  Company.  Additionally,  the
Registrant  will issue to D&A  350,000  shares of  Registrant's  authorized  but
unissued  Common Stock at a purchase  price of one ($0.01)  cent per share.  D&A
will pay the aggregate purchase price of $3,500 from its working capital.

         Upon issuance to it of the 350,000 shares of Common Stock,  D&A and its
affiliates will own  beneficially  442,978 shares of Common Stock,  representing
approximately  48.8% of the  total  outstanding  Common  Stock and will have the
right to vote 526,956 shares of Common Stock,  representing  approximately 58.1%
of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock.

         D&A had  acquired  a  total  of  83,978  shares  of  Common  Stock  and
irrevocable  proxies  to vote an  additional  83,978  shares of Common  Stock on
August 16, 1996 in a private  transaction with certain officers and directors of
Registrant  and others who owned an aggregate of 167,956 shares of Common Stock,
representing  approximately  30.1% of the  total  outstanding  shares  of Common
Stock.  Immediately prior to the Special Meeting,  such persons owned a total of
83,978 shares of Common Stock.

         The principal  shareholders  of D&A are Donald Weiner,  Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer of Registrant,  and Arthur Gins, a director of
Registrant.


ITEM 5
- ------

         At the  Special  Meeting,  resignations  by  the  former  directors  of
Registrant,  Ira Abramson, Robert Schwartz, Donald Schwartz,  Richard Moskowitz,
Martin Conrad and Henry Krauss,  were acknowledged and the shareholders  elected
Donald Weiner, Arthur Gins, Barbara Weiner, Edith Gins, and Richard Moskowitz to
the Board of Directors.

         Upon conclusion of the Special Meeting,  the new Board of Directors met
and elected the following  persons to offices of Registrant  set forth  opposite
their respective names:

                  Donald Weiner             Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
                  Richard Moskowitz         President
                  Kenneth Sauer             Treasurer and Secretary

         On  December  3, 1996  Richard  Moskowitz  resigned  as  President  and
director of Registrant.  The Board of Directors  appointed  Kenneth  Sauer,  its
Treasurer,  to serve as interim  President and as a director of Registrant.  The
Board of Directors also appointed  Evelyn Kelley Vice President.  Ms. Kelley has
been  employed  by  Registrant  for thirty  years and is  responsible  for store
operations.

         The Company was notified by the American  Stock  Exchange  that it does
not fully  satisfy all of the  Exchange's  financial  guidelines  for  continued
listing.  The  Exchange  initiated  proceedings  to delist the  Company  and the
Company  appealed  the  determination.  A decision  on the  appeal is  currently
pending.  There is no assurance that the Company's listing on the American Stock
Exchange will be continued.
