Item 8.01. Other Events

On July 28, 2009, Haights Cross Communications, Inc. (“HCC”) issued a press release announcing that it had elected to further extend the expiration date from 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 27, 2009 to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 30, 2009 for the private exchange offer and consent solicitation (the “Exchange Offer”) to eligible holders to exchange its 12 ½% Senior Discount Notes Due 2011 (“Senior Discount Notes”) for shares of common stock of HCC. As previously announced, unless the Company is able to timely complete the Exchange Offer, it anticipates taking advantage of the applicable 30-day grace period with respect to payment of the semi-annual interest of approximately $8.4 million due August 3, 2009 on its Senior Discount Notes to pursue the completion of the Exchange Offer. The Company’s current forbearance agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) and credit agreement for its senior secured term loan (the “Credit Agreement”) prohibits the Company from making interest payments on the Senior Discount Notes while the Company remains in default under the Credit Agreement. The cure of such default will require, among other things, the successful completion of the Exchange Offer. Under the applicable indenture relating to the Senior Discount Notes, use of the 30-day grace period does not constitute a default that permits acceleration of the Senior Discount Notes.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The press release contains forward-looking statements and includes cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.
