ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER The Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on June 17, 1999, by Daniel S. Laikin ("Laikin"), and Paul Skjodt relating to the common shares, no par value (the "Shares"), of J2 Communications, a California corporation (the "Issuer"), as amended on June 22, 1999, July 1, 1999, July 23, 1999, September 3, 1999, September 17, 1999, November 22, 1999, July 20, 2000, July 25, 2000, August 11, 2000, March 6, 2001, April 2, 2001, November 19, 2001 and November 21 is hereby amended to furnish and restate the information set forth herein. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION On November 19, 2001, the Issuer issued a press release stating that "it may be delisted by Nasdaq if it does not hold its next annual meeting of shareholders by the end of 2001." On November 29, 2001, the Issuer filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating "on November 26, 2001, the Company received notification from NASDAQ stating that the Company no longer satisfied certain quantitative net tangible asset and equity valuation standards required for the continuation of its NASDAQ Small Cap listing. NASDAQ has asked the Company to provide, by December 10, 2001, its specific plan to achieve and sustain compliance with all of the applicable NASDAQ Small Cap Market listing requirements. In light of the Company's current economic condition, and in particular, in light of the non-consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Letter Agreement, the Company does not expect that it will be able to provide a plan that will be acceptable to NASDAQ, although it will continue to discuss the matter with them. Accordingly, the Company expects that NASDAQ will, on or after December 10, 2001, delist the Company's common stock from trading on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market." On December 6, 2001, Timothy S. Durham ("Durham") made a written offer to the Board of Directors ("Board") of the Issuer to acquire, on certain terms and conditions, 400,000 newly issued shares of common stock of the Issuer at a purchase price of $5.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000, in order to assist the Issuer in meeting the quantitative listing requirements of NASDAQ. The offer was not accepted by the Issuer. On December 6, 2001, at a meeting of the Board, Laikin brought a motion to immediately notice an annual meeting of shareholders to comply with the NASDAQ requirements. There was no second for the motion, it was not passed, and no annual meeting of shareholders was called. Since that time, Registrants have been negotiating with Jimirro and other representatives of the Issuer to agree to call an annual meeting of shareholders forthwith, and attempting to reach an amicable resolution of other issues, which may include the appointment of some Registrants as officers or directors of the Issuer or shared control of the Issuer. However, the Registrants continue to aggressively investigate, consider and pursue other options, which may include seeking to file additional litigation, elect new directors, change control of the Issuer, or take other action the Registrants, or any of them, determine to be appropriate. Depending on the market price of the Shares and upon other conditions, Registrants may acquire additional Shares from time to time in the open market or otherwise or may seek to acquire Shares from the Issuer, at prices which Registrants may determine to be appropriate. In addition, depending upon market prices and other conditions, Registrants may dispose of Shares at any time and from time to time in the open market or otherwise at prices which Registrants may determine to be appropriate. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER (a) As of the close of business on December 11, 2001, Registrants may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 717,249 Shares, representing approximately 51.98% of the Issuer's outstanding Shares (based upon the 1,379,816 Shares stated to be outstanding as of October 23, 2001, by the Issuer in the Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2001). (b) Durham has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 65,900 Shares. Diamond has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 89,599 Shares. DW Leasing has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 17,350 Shares. (c) The following table that sets forth all transactions with respect to Shares effected by any of the Registrants during the past sixty (60) days. All such transactions were effected in the open market, and exclude commissions paid.
