Item 2.

Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On October 1, 2003, Video City, Inc. (the “Company”) sold twelve of its retail video stores to M.G. Midwest, Inc., an affiliate of Movie Gallery, Inc. (collectively, “Movie Gallery”).  The sale of the twelve stores was made pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2003, by and between the Company and Movie Gallery (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), a copy of which is included as Exhibit 2.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.  The twelve stores sold represented all of the remaining retail video stores of the Company other than the two stores located in Ventura, California.  The aggregate purchase price for the twelve sold stores consisted of cash in the amount of $3,250,000, and was determined as a result of arms-length negotiations between the Company and Movie Gallery.  $50,000 of the purchase pr ice was held back by Movie Gallery, pending the determination by Movie Gallery, on or before December 31, 2003, that there are no outstanding claims or liabilities related to the assets sold.   

At the time of the sale there were no material relationships between the Company and Movie Gallery or any of its shareholders or affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company, any of the Company’s affiliates, any director or officer of the Company or any associate of any such director or officer, on the other hand.

In addition on October 10, 2003, the Company sold one of its stores located in Ventura, California to an entity controlled by Timothy L. Ford.  The purchase price for such sale was $180,000, consisting of a promissory note issued by such entity in the amount of $157,083 and the assumption by such entity of certain of the Company’s accounts payable to a product supplier in the amount of $22,917.  The purchase price offered by the entity controlled by Mr. Ford was the highest bid offered by any party, and constituted a multiple of cash flow of approximately 5X.  The transaction between the Company and the entity controlled by Mr. Ford took place as a result of arm’s length negotiations between the Company and such entity.  Mr. Ford resigned as the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company on October 9, 2003.  The Company closed the other Ve ntura, California store and sold the inventory for such store.     

In November 2002, the Company had sold 19 of its retail video stores, then representing all stores owned by the Company outside of California, to Movie Gallery.  In May 2003, the Company had sold two its retail video stores, located in Salinas and San Francisco, California to Movie Gallery.

After the sales described above, the Company does not own any operating assets, and is currently exploring all possibilities regarding future plans for its business, if any.

The foregoing description of the terms of the asset purchase agreements does not purport to be complete statements of the parties' rights and obligations thereunder, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable asset purchase agreements.

Item 5.

Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure

On October 9, 2003, Timothy L. Ford resigned as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company.  As described above, Mr. Ford purchased one of the Company’s stores located in Ventura, California.  On October 13, 2003, Rudolph R. Patino resigned as the Chief Financial Officer and a member of the board of directors of the Company.  On October 17, 2003, Robert Y. Lee resigned as the Chairman of the board of directors of the Company.  The Company moved its principal executive offices to 5060 California Avenue, Suite 401, Bakersfield, CA, 93309.

A press release announcing the sale of the Company’s stores is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

2.11  Other Closing Costs.  Seller and Purchaser shall each remain liable for their own closing expenses including attorney's fees.  Seller shall remain liable for any closing expenses incurred by Seller and/or Seller's agents or employees and shall indemnify Purchaser against any actions brought against Purchaser or the Assets resulting from Seller's failure to pay any such closing expenses.  Purchaser shall remain liable for any closing expenses incurred by Purchaser and/or Purchaser's agents or employees and shall indemnify Seller against any actions brought against Seller resulting from Purchaser's failure to pay any such closing expenses.


2.12  Bulk Sales.  Seller and Purchaser do not believe that this transfer is subject to any "Bulk Sales Act" provisions or other similar legal requirements.  Notwithstanding the accuracy of this belief, it will not be practicable to comply or to attempt to comply with the procedures of the "Bulk Sales Act" or any similar law of the State of California, or of any other state which may be asserted to be applicable to the transactions anticipated in this Agreement.  Accordingly, to induce Purchaser to waive any requirement for compliance with the procedures of any Bulk Sale law, Seller agrees that the indemnity provisions of this Agreement shall apply to any claim asserted against Purchaser arising out of, or resulting from the failure of Purchaser or Seller to comply with or perform, any actions in connection with, in preparation for, or incident to , the transactions anticipated in this Agreement which might be required under the terms and provisions of any "Bulk Sales Act" or similar law, or which may be asserted to be applicable.

POSSESSION OF COLLATERAL BY SECURED PARTY.  All the Collateral now, heretofore or hereafter delivered to Secured Party, shall be held by Secured Party in Secured Party's possession, custody and control.  Any or all of the Collateral delivered to Secured Party may be held in an interest bearing or non-interest bearing account, in Secured Party's sole and absolute discretion, and Secured Party may, in Secured Party's discretion, apply any such interest to payment of the Obligations.  Nothing herein shall obligate Secured Party to invest any Collateral or obtain any particular return thereon.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, whenever any of the Collateral is in Secured Party's possession, custody or control, Secured Party, may use, operate and consume the Collateral, whether for the purpose of pre serving and/or protecting the Collateral, or for the purpose of performing any of Debtor's obligations with respect thereto, or otherwise.  Secured Party may at any time deliver or redeliver the Collateral or any part thereof to Debtor, and the receipt of any of the same by any Debtor shall be complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and Secured Party thereafter shall be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor.  So long as Secured Party exercises reasonable care with respect to any Collateral in its possession, custody or control, Secured Party shall not have any liability for any loss of or damage to such Collateral, and in no event shall Secured Party have liability for any diminution in value of Collateral occasioned by economic or market conditions or events.  Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care within the meaning of the preceding sentence if the Collateral in the possession, custody or control of Secured Party is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Secured Party accords its own Collateral, it being understood that Secured Party shall not have any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Collateral.
