Item 5: Other Events
Effective May 28, 1999, the Company changed its name to FiNet.com, Inc.
The Directors of the Company recommended such change because they believe that
the new name is more representative of the Company's principal business of being
an electronic commerce financial services company. Further, the Directors
believe that the Company's prior name (Finet Holdings Corporation) lead to an
incorrect assumption on the part of investors that the Company is a holding
company for diverse businesses. The new name also matches the Company's Internet
address and will promote recognition of the Company's Website.
Shareholders representing a majority of the Company's outstanding
common stock voted in favor of the name change pursuant to a Consent Statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company's Nasdaq symbol has been changed to "FNCM."
