Item 8.01 Other Events.
DFC Global Corp. (the "Company") has been informed that a purported class action lawsuit has been filed against it, certain of its senior executives and directors, and the two underwriters who served as joint book-running managers for the Company’s April 7, 2011 common stock offering (the "2011 Offering") in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The complaint, which purports to be brought as a class action on behalf of purchasers of the Company's common stock in the 2011 Offering, alleges violations of federal securities laws regarding disclosures made by the Company with respect to its prospectus and registration statement relating to the 2011 Offering (the "Offering Materials"), and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2010 and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 which were incorporated by reference into the Offering Materials. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary and other relief. The Company believes that the complaint is without merit and intends to defend against it vigorously.
