Item 8.01.                                          Other Events.

 

Security Capital Corporation (the “Company”) announced on April 19, 2005 that, on April 13, 2005, it learned that the previously announced scheduling conference was held with respect to the complaint, dated March 29, 2005, styled Montauk Partners L.P., Wilmington Interstate Corporation, Virginia Retirement System, Landmark Secondary Partners IX, L.P., Illinois State Universities Retirement System, State of Montana Board of Investments, and Erste Bank v. Brian D. Fitzgerald, Capital Partners, Inc., FGS, Inc., CP Acquisition, L.P. No. 1, and Capital Partners Holdings II-A, L.P. and Capital Partners Holdings II-B, L.P., which was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware.  The complaint names Brian D. Fitzgerald, Capital Partners, Inc., FGS, Inc. and CP Acquisition, L.P. No. 1, as defendants, and Capital Partners Holdings II-A, L.P. and Capital Partners Holdings II-B, L.P., as nominal defendants (collectively, the “Partnerships”), and was filed by certain limited partners of the Partnerships.

 

It is the Company’s understanding that the scheduling conference was held to consider the plaintiffs’ motion, dated March 29, 2005, also previously announced, seeking to expedite proceedings and schedule a trial on the matter for June 2005.  It is also the Company’s understanding that, at the scheduling conference, the Court denied the plaintiffs’ motion and stated that the plaintiffs had not shown a need for a trial in that time frame.  Instead, the Court directed the parties to attempt to work out a pre-trial schedule that would result in the matter being tried around year-end 2005.

 

A copy of the Company’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
