                   INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

ITEM 1.  CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

    On April 22, 1996, Czech Industries, Inc. (the "Company") signed a letter 
of intent to acquire eighty percent of Eastbrokers Beteiligungs AG 
("Eastbrokers"), a Vienna, Austria based investment banking and brokerage 
firm. The Company intends to issue 5.4 million shares of its common stock as 
consideration for the shares of Eastbrokers. The consideration is subject to 
adjustment upon the earnings of certain net profit targets and upon the 
receipt of certain net cash proceeds from the future sale of a substantial 
Company owned asset. The shares to be issued will not be registered under the 
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") and may not be offered or sold in the 
United States absent registration under the Act of on applicable exemption 
therefrom.

    As soon as practicable, the Company intends to enter into a definitive 
stock purchase agreement with the sellers of the shares of Eastbrokers, Peter 
Schmid, August A. de Roode and Wolfgang Kossner (the "Sellers"). Upon closing 
of the proposed transaction, the Company will have an authorized 
capitalization of 50,000,000 shares of common stock of which 14,405,000 will 
be issued and outstanding. The Sellers will control approximately 38% of the 
Company's outstanding common stock.

    The Company has agreed to give to Eastbrokers four seats on the Company's 
board of directors. Peter Schmid, the current president of Eastbrokers and a 
director of the Company, will become the president and remain as a director of 
the Company. August A. de Roode, the current chief executive officer of 
Eastbrokers, will become the chief executive officer and a director of the 
Company. Wolfgang Kossner, the current managing director of Eastbrokers, will 
become a director of the Company. The Sellers will have the right to 
designate one additional person to serve as a member of the board of 
directors. Accordingly, upon the closing, the board of directors of the 
Company will consist of Dr. Michael Sumichrast, Ing. Petr Bednarik, Martin A. 
Sumichrast, Randall F. Greene, the three Sellers and the designee of the 
Sellers. The Company's By-Laws provide for not less than one director and not 
more than nine directors.

    Pursuant to the letter of intent, the Company intends to submit to the 
shareholders the proposed transaction for their approval. Also to be 
submitted is a proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation of the 
Company whereby action taken on certain events shall require the affirmative 
vote of sixty six and two thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the members of the 
board of directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Among 
the events described in the proposed amendment are the nomination of a person 
or persons to serve as a member of the board of directors of the Company and 
the removal of any members of the board of directors of the Company. Also, 
the Sellers have agreed to vote their shares in accordance with the 
recommendations of the board of directors relating to the events described in 
the proposed amendment for a period of three years from the date of the 
closing.

    Upon the closing of the proposed transaction, the Sellers, acting 
together, will have a substantial influence on the business of the board of 
directors and the election of the Company's board of directors, and therefore 
substantial control of the direction of the affairs of the Company.
