Item 11. Additional Information.
Item 11 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
     “On or about February 10, 2011, plaintiff Joseph F. Lawrence filed a purported shareholder class action complaint in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Burlington County (Chancery Division). In the complaint, the plaintiff purports to be a shareholder of MedQuist Inc. and seeks to represent a class of MedQuist Inc. minority shareholders in pursuit of claims against defendants, MedQuist Inc., MedQuist Holdings Inc. and MedQuist Inc. board members, Robert M. Aquilina, Frank Baker, Peter Berger, John F. Jastrem, Colin J. O’Brien, Warren E. Pinckert, Michael Seedman, and Andrew Vogel.
     Plaintiff alleges that the defendants breached certain fiduciary duties they owed to minority shareholders in connection with the structuring and disclosure of the exchange offer. Among other things, the plaintiff contends that (a) the exchange offer is procedurally and financially unfair, (b) the January 21, 2011 Schedule 14D-9 that MedQuist Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the February 3, 2011 Prospectus that MedQuist Holdings Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission are materially misleading and incomplete, and (c) the exchange offer was structured by the defendants in order to circumvent the provisions of the New Jersey Shareholder Protection Act. Plaintiff seeks, among other things, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief enjoining consummation of the exchange offer, unspecified damages, pre- and post-judgment interest and attorneys’ fees and costs.
     On February 15, 2011, the plaintiff filed an Order to Show Cause in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Burlington County (Chancery Division). In the Order to Show Cause plaintiff seeks expedited discovery and setting a briefing and hearing schedule for a preliminary injunction application that plaintiff intends to file. Plaintiff seeks to have its preliminary injunction application fully briefed and heard by the Court on or before March 2, 2011.
     A second, substantially similar, complaint was filed against the MedQuist Inc., MedQuist Holdings Inc. and the MedQuist Inc. board members in the same court on or about February 8, 2011.
     MedQuist Holdings Inc. denies any liability and intends to vigorously defend itself in both actions.”
