Page 5 of 9 Pages This jointly filed Schedule 13/D (i) is Amendment No. 27 with respect to Craig Corporation ("Craig") and it amends and supplements the Schedule 13D, dated June 4, 1987 and Amendments thereto (the "Craig Schedule 13D") filed by Craig relating to beneficial holdings of shares of Common Stock of Citadel Holding Corporation ("Citadel"); and (ii) is Amendment No. 3 with respect to Reading Entertainment, Inc. ("Reading") and Reading Holdings, Inc.("Holdings") and it amends and supplements the Schedule 13D, dated March 28, 1996 and the Amendments thereto (the "Reading Schedule 13D") filed by Reading and Holdings relating to beneficial holdings of shares of Common Stock of Citadel. Reading is the successor to Reading Company, a Pennsylvania corporation, as a result of a reorganization effective October 15, 1996 (the "Reorganization Transaction"). The Reorganization Transaction is described in detail in Reading's Form S-4 Registration Statement (No. 333-13413) dated October 4, 1996 (the "Registration Statement") incorporated herein as Exhibit 1 and made a part hereof. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Craig or Reading Schedule 13D. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following: On October 15, 1996, Reading received the 1,329,114 shares of Citadel 3% Cumulative Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Citadel Preferred Stock") owned by Craig as partial consideration for the issuance by Reading to Craig of shares of Reading Common Stock and Series B Cumulative Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Reading Preferred Stock"). This transaction was one of several transactions (the "Stock Transactions") among Craig, Reading, Citadel, Citadel Acquisition Corporation, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Citadel ("CAC"), Craig Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Craig ("CMI") and Reading Company, the predecessor corporation of Reading, as set forth in an Exchange Agreement dated as of September 4, 1996 (the "Exchange Agreement"). The Exchange Agreement is included in the Registration Agreement as Exhibit F to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Holdings agreed to terminate (i) its option to acquire the Warrant owned by Craig to purchase 666,000 shares of Citadel Common Stock and (ii) its option to acquire the Citadel Preferred Stock transferred to Reading, which termination became effective on October 15, 1996. In addition, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, immediately upon receipt of the Citadel Preferred Stock, Reading delivered such shares to Citadel in exchange for an equal number of shares of Citadel Series B 3% Cumulative Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Citadel Series B Preferred Stock"). This exchange took place on October 15, 1996. The terms of the Citadel Series B Preferred

Page 6 of 9 Pages Stock are substantially identical to the terms of the Citadel Preferred Stock except that (i) the Accrual Percentage will be 3% from and after October 15, 1996 and (ii) except on a change of control of Citadel, the holders of the Citadel Series B Preferred Stock will not have the right to convert the shares of Citadel Series B Preferred Stock into Citadel Common Stock during the one- year period commencing on the 15th day following the filing of Citadel's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1996. Item 4. Purposes of Transaction Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following: With the closing of the Stock Transactions, Craig (on a consolidated basis) has completed its transition out of the retail grocery business -- through Stater Bros. Holdings Inc. ("Stater") -- and into the beyond the home entertainment business -- through Reading. In the Stock Transactions, Craig contributed its entire interest in Stater and substantially all of its interest in Citadel to Reading, where such assets can be used, more directly and efficiently, to support Reading's activities, both domestically and abroad, in the cinema exhibition business. As a consequence of the Stock Transactions, Reading has increased its shareholders' equity from approximately $70 million to approximately $156 million and has put itself in a better position to compete in the cinema exhibition business. At the present time, Craig's assets on a consolidated basis, other than cash, consist principally of its 77.4% voting interest in Reading. The purposes of the Reorganization Transaction and the Stock Transactions are set forth in more detail in the Registration Statement incorporated herein as Exhibit 1. At the closing of the Stock Transactions and pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Craig, Reading, Citadel and CAC entered into an Asset Put and Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which Citadel has the right (the "Asset Put Option"), exercisable at any time after the October 15, 1996 closing and until 30 days after Reading files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1999, to require Reading to acquire substantially all of Citadel's assets, and assume related liabilities (such as mortgages), for shares of Reading Common Stock. Reading will not be obligated to acquire (i) the shares of Reading Preferred Stock or Reading Common Stock held by CAC (or the capital stock of CAC), (ii) such amount of cash or marketable securities as the Citadel Committee determines to retain to provide necessary liquidity to Citadel, (iii) such other assets as the Board of Directors of Reading reasonably determines are subject to liabilities reasonably likely to be in excess of such assets' fair market values, (iv) assets acquired by Citadel subsequent to closing to the extent such after acquired assets have a value in excess of $5,000,000 or

Page 7 of 9 Pages (v) any assets exceeding $30,000,000 in aggregate value. In exchange for Citadel's assets on exercise of the Asset Put Option, Reading will deliver to Citadel a number of shares of Reading Common Stock determined by dividing the value of the Citadel assets, as determined by appraisal, by a stated value of the Reading Common Stock. Such value of the Reading Common Stock shall be (i) for the first $20,000,000 of assets existing at the closing and cash proceeds related thereto, $11.75 per share if Citadel exercises the Asset Put Option on or before October 31, 1997, and $12.25 thereafter, and (ii) for any additional existing assets, and for any assets acquired after the closing, the average, over the 20-trading day period prior to Citadel giving notice of such exercise, of the closing prices of the Reading Common Stock. Also, if the closing price of the Reading Common Stock exceeds 130% of the price then in effect pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) for 60 consecutive days, Reading may give notice of such event to Citadel and, if Citadel does not exercise the Asset Put Option within 120 days thereafter, the value of the Reading Common Stock for all purposes of the Asset Put Option shall be the value determined pursuant to clause (ii). Under the Asset Put and Registration Rights Agreement, Citadel and CAC have certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of Reading Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Citadel Series A Preferred Stock or on exercise of the Asset Put Option. Citadel and CAC shall be entitled to two demand registrations of such shares of Reading Common Stock and to piggyback registration rights, in each case at the expense of Reading. Other than as described above, neither Craig, Reading nor Holdings has any plans or proposals with respect to Citadel which would relate to or result in any of the matters described in Item 4(a) through 4(j) of Schedule 13D. Either Craig, Reading and/or Holdings may, from time to time, determine to purchase additional Citadel securities or to sell their interests in some or all of such securities depending upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the price at which such securities are available, the other demands upon the working capital of Craig, Reading and/or Holdings, and the business prospects and opportunities available for Craig, Reading, Holdings and/or Citadel. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer Item 5 is hereby amended to add the following: (a) Craig's responses in Items 11 and 13 of the Cover Page of this Amendment No. 27 include (1) the exercise of a warrant to purchase 666,000 shares of Citadel Common Stock (the "Warrant Shares") granted by Citadel to Craig pursuant to a Conversion Deferral, Warrant and Reimbursement Agreement,

Page 8 of 9 Pages as described in Amendment 15 to the Craig Schedule 13D dated April 3, 1995, (2) 1,564,473 outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by Holdings and beneficially owned by Craig due to its greater than 50% ownership of Reading, and (3) conversion of 1,329,114 shares of Citadel Series B Preferred Stock owned by Reading, which are convertible under certain circumstances into shares of Common Stock (the "Conversion Shares"). The 2,093,886 Conversion Shares would be issuable assuming Reading's optional conversion in full of the Series B Preferred Stock at a conversion price equal to the "Market Price" per share as defined in the Certificate of Designation of the Series B Preferred Stock. Assuming a conversion on October 10, 1996, such Market Price would have been $2.5073. The actual number of Conversion Shares that may be acquired by Reading by reason of the Series B Preferred Shares may vary depending upon, assuming other things, the Market Price and the number of Shares outstanding at the time of any optional conversion and is subject to other adjustment and limitations pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation. Pending any conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the conversion features of the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to one vote per share of Series B Preferred Stock on all matters submitted to Citadel's stockholders and will vote together with the holders of Citadel's Common Stock as a single class with respect to such matters. The Common Stock beneficially owned by Craig, as reported above, together with the Warrant Shares and Series B Preferred Stock, represents approximately 49.34% of the aggregate combined voting power of the outstanding shares of Citadel assuming issuance of 2,093,886 Conversion Shares and assuming the exercise in full of the Warrant. Reading's and Holding's responses in Items 7, 9, 11 and 13 of the Cover Page of this Schedule 13D/A reflect its beneficial ownership of 1,564,473 shares of Common Stock and 1,329,114 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. (b) See Items 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the Cover Pages and the information in Item 5(a) concerning the calculation of the combined voting power represented by the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by Craig, Reading and Holdings. (c) None. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer Other than as described herein, there after no contracts, arrangements, understanding or relationships with respect to securities of Citadel to which Craig, Reading or Holding is a party.
