Security and Issuer This statement relates to the common stock of Competitive Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"). The address of the principal executive office of the Company is 1960 Bronson Road, Fairfield, Connecticut 06430. Item 2. Identity and Background This statement is filed by 43 individual shareholders of the Company, one of whom (Mr. George C. J. Bigar) is also a director of the Company. The shareholders, their residence or business addresses and their occupations are set forth on Exhibit 1 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference. All of the reporting shareholders are citizens of the United States; Mr. Bigar is a dual citizen of the United States and Switzerland. During the last five years, none of the reporting shareholders has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). During the last five years, none of the reporting shareholders has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body resulting in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration The acquisition of stock by the group of shareholders filing this report did not involve purchases. The shares beneficially owned by members of the group are deemed to be acquired for reporting purposes by the group when the members thereof agreed to act together as discussed in Item 4. Individual members of the group have owned shares of the Company's common stock over varying lengths of time. Most have been shareholders for 3 to 15 years. The stock reflected on the cover pages hereof was purchased primarily with personal funds of the reporting shareholders, in certain cases subject to borrowings in the form of standard margin agreements with registered broker- dealers and/or funds provided by affiliates of reporting shareholders. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction The purpose of this filing is to report the formation of a group of shareholders, most of whom have held stock in the Company for 3 to 15 years, to seek to reconstitute the board of directors of the Company at the Annual Meeting now scheduled for December 19, 1997. This course of action has been necessitated by the failure of the Company and the present board of directors to observe established principles of corporate governance, to operate the Company in the best long-term interest of shareholders and to maximize the Company's value and standing in the investment community. Instead, the Company operates unaware of or indifferent to the responsibilities of its directors (most of whom have never made meaningful investments in the 43 Company) to expend the effort necessary to achieve what the shareholders deserve: an efficient, effective and aggressive organization capable of maximizing the value of the Company. George C. J. Bigar ("Bigar") became a shareholder in the Company in 1994 and, at the invitation of George M. Stadler, the chief executive officer ("Stadler"), he was nominated and elected as a director at the 1996 Annual Meeting. Bigar gradually became aware that within the Company's shareholder base was a significant number of holders who (i) had held stock in the Company for several years or longer and continued to take a very positive long-term view of the Company and the stock, (ii) shared Bigar's views about the potential of the Company stock to produce substantial long-term value, and (iii) were frustrated, and growing more so, at the inattention of management and the board of directors to requests for information, particularly plausible explanations of the slow pace at which the Company was able to exploit technologies in which it holds interests. In particular, Bigar heard repeatedly from the shareholders joining in this filing and many others that management and the board did not respond to shareholder calls, letters or other communications and showed lack of interest and even arrogance concerning legitimate expressions of shareholders' interest in the Company's business. Since becoming a director, Bigar has devoted substantial time and attention to the Company's situation and has learned a great deal about both the problems and opportunities which the Company faces. He has been an active director, frequently making suggestions to improve the Company's performance in operating, financial, personnel and related matters, but he has found a level of complacency among fellow board members and executive officers inconsistent with the demands of the Company's business. This has manifested itself in indifference to the needs of shareholders and the investment community generally for reliable, prompt communication of information about the Company and the unwillingness to undertake, or even explore in good faith, potential means of bringing the Company's strengths and the value of its assets to the attention of the investment community. In short, the board and senior management, having little or no invested stake in the Company, do not think or act like shareholders, and they have made plain to Bigar by their actions and admonitions that they do not appreciate his doing so. Bigar recognizes that it is the shareholders (particularly the large group who have held stock in the Company through a long period of miserable performance), if they do not give up on the Company's future, who are the group of people most loyal and interested in the Company's long-term prosperity. In the last year, Bigar concluded and openly discussed with the board and management that the interests of equity holders were being ignored, to the detriment of the Company. He gradually realized that his colleagues did not consider the interests and concerns of the equity holders to be of substantial importance. In mid-October, Bigar suggested to Stadler that the membership of the board be reconstituted, by replacing current directors with highly qualified individuals whose professional standing, abilities and achievements would enhance the status of the Company. This suggestion was summarily rejected. The shareholders joining in this filing believe that the Company has the opportunity to increase its earnings and market valuation if it (i) promptly re- focuses its energies under the guidance of a responsive board of directors; (ii) cuts costs significantly and eliminates current compensation plans (for directors and executive officers alike) which are not aligned with the 44 interests of shareholders; and (iii) aggressively seeks methods of utilizing its undervalued assets, some of which have been completely neglected, to add value to the Company. Bigar sought expressions of support from a small number of shareholders and encountered a groundswell of interest in identifying a superior alternative to the slate of directors proposed by the current board for the December 19, 1997 Annual Meeting. The group of shareholders joining in this filing exists solely for the purpose of advocating the replacement of a majority of the board of directors; it is anticipated that the group will cease to exist following the elections at the Annual Meeting. Those signing this statement are united in believing that - A Corporate Board has no responsibility higher than that of adding value, or causing value to be added, to a company - Compensation must be aligned with shareholders' long-term interests - No more than one Executive Officer need be seated on a corporate board - Executive Officers should never be allowed to serve on either the Compensation Committee or Nominating Committee - A company's Chief Executive must be held accountable at all times and in all endeavors - The board must be run in such a way as to direct, not only oversee, the Company's Executive Officers, its mission statement and the timely, efficient implementation of that mission statement. Performance targets must be in place and when or if these are not met,analysis of the failure(s) should lead to a reassessment. Without a mission statement and performance targets, it is unreasonable to embark on any realistic appraisal of the suitability, competency (or lack thereof) or value of Executive and Operating Officers. The Company filed with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement for the Annual Meeting which should be carefully reviewed by interested shareholders. Until the shareholders involved in this filing have filed a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC (which they intend to do very shortly), they are not permitted to solicit proxies. Such shareholders hope that other interested shareholders will carefully consider the matters discussed above in order to determine an appropriate course of action. The equity holders who have joined in this filing intend to conduct a proxy contest in 45 which the facts speak for themselves; they do not intend to initiate or resort to escalation of the disagreement with management, and they call upon management to refrain from actions in their self-interest but not in the best interests of the Company, such as attempting to frustrate the will of a majority of the Company's equity holders. The interests of the Company would not be served by a prolonged or expensive battle in which the Company's funds are spent to attack its own shareholders in an attempt to insulate the board of directors from basic accountability to those who own the Company. Individual reporting shareholders may in the future purchase or sell shares of common stock, depending on their individual circumstances and changing market conditions. On November 14, 1997 Bigar sent a written request, pursuant to Rule 14a-7 under the Exchange Act, that the Company promptly provide either a list of shareholders or an estimate of the costs of mailing a proxy statement in which proxies are to be solicited in support of a slate of nominees for director in opposition to the slate nominated by management. A copy of that letter is attached as Exhibit 2. Pursuant to Rule 14a-7, the Company is required to deliver a response to Bigar's written request within 5 business days after its receipt of the request. Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer (a) As of October 31, 1997 the reporting shareholders are the beneficial owners of 1,297,118 shares, representing approximately 21.9% of the outstanding shares of the Company, based upon the number of shares reported to be outstanding in the Company's most recent Form 10-K. (b) Except as otherwise indicated on the individual cover pages hereof, each of the reporting shareholders has the sole power to vote and to dispose of the shares attributed to such shareholder. (c) The following table sets forth all transactions with respect to common stock of the Company effected during the past sixty days by each of the reporting shareholders. Each transaction set forth below reflects an open market purchase or sale on the American Stock Exchange:
