Item 5. Other Events
------------
The Company issued a press release on October 30, 1995 announcing,
among other things, that it had entered into an agreement with Charles Nirenberg
and certain of his affiliates pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase
from Mr. Nirenberg and such affiliates, subject to certain conditions, all of
their interests in D.M. Associates Limited Partnership. In addition, in order
for there to be time for the Company to seek to complete the purchase which is
scheduled to take place prior to November 30, 1995, the Company also announced
an adjournment of its annual meeting of shareholders from October 31, 1995 to
November 30, 1995.
The press release also stated that the Company had been notified that
the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Company's
$75,000,000 Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004 (the "Notes") had instructed the
Trustee under the Indenture relating to the Notes to issue a notice of default
to the Company, which such notice of default had not yet been received by the
Company. The default is alleged to have occurred due to the Company's failure to
timely notify the trustee of a Change of Control of the Company (as defined in
the Indenture) and the Company's failure to offer to redeem the Notes in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The press release stated, however,
that the Company does not acknowledge that a Change of Control has occurred. A
copy of the press release is attached and filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K
and is incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth herein.
