2 ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS. NASDAQ DELISTING NOTIFICATION After the close of the market on November 29, 2000, Titan Motorcycle Co. of America (the "Company") received correspondence from Nasdaq indicating that the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel had decided to immediately delist the Company's common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.

The Company currently has outstanding three classes of preferred stock - -- Series A, Series B and Series C. In addition, the Company has issued and outstanding subordinated debentures. The holders of the preferred stock and the debentures are entitled to certain redemption and other payment rights; however, each of the holders has entered into a Subordination Agreement or an Intercreditor Agreement with Wells Fargo Credit, Inc., the Company's primary lender, under which the holders' redemption and other payment rights are restricted upon the occurrence of certain events. The holders are restricted from demanding full redemption of their securities until after June 30, 2001, and only if the following criteria are met: 1. The Company has funds legally available to pay such dividends or redemption payments; 2. No default under the credit agreement, technical or otherwise, shall exist after giving effect to the redemption; and 3. The Company must be in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the credit loan agreement after giving effect to the redemption payment.
