<PAGE>

                                    Part II
                            Rule 12b-25 (b) and (c)

     If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the
following should be completed.  (Check appropriate box.)

[X]      (a)  The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this
         form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;

[X]      (b)  The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report
         on Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be
         filed on or before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due
         date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-
         Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day

                                    Part III
                                   Narrative

     State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F, 10-
Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.  (Attach extra sheets if needed.)

     On July 17, 2001, Registrant and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Paisano
Publications, Inc. ("Paisano"), filed voluntary petitions for relief under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Central District of California, San Fernando Valley Division (the
"Chapter 11 Cases").  The Registrant was unable to finalize its Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q in time to file the same by August 14, 2001 due to the extensive
time during July and August which the Company's management and professional
staff needed to devote to the process of preparing to initiate the Chapter 11
Cases, negotiations with its senior secured lender, Nomura Holding America in
connection with a Cash Collateral Stipulation, and extensive post-filing motions
to resolve various issues concerning Paisano's key vendors.


                                    Part IV
                               Other Information

                                       2
<PAGE>

     (2)  Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act
of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?  If the answer is no,
identify report(s).

                             [X] Yes   [_] No

     (3)  Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations
from corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

                             [_] Yes   [X] No

     If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
