Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

               The following information is intended to supplement the
               information disclosed in Item 2 of (i) the Form 8-K
               filed on February 12, 1996 and (ii) the Form 8-K/A
               filed on April 4, 1996 (together with (i) above, the
               "Form 8-K"). Capitalized terms used and not defined
               herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Form
               8-K.

               On July 29, 1996, the parties (or their successors, as
               applicable) to the Purchase Agreement executed
               Amendment No. 1 to the Purchase Agreement (the
               "Amendment") which resulted in an adjustment to the
               purchase price paid by Registrant and its subsidiaries
               for the Business from $245,376,555 to $245,622,444. The
               Amendment required (i) the replacement of the 8%
               promissory note dated January 26, 1996, secured by a
               letter of credit, issued by the Registrant to VSI
               Corporation in the principal amount of $166 million
               with a 6.5% promissory note dated as of January 26,
               1996, secured by a letter of credit, issued by the
               Registrant to VSI Corporation in the principal amount
               of $166 million (the "6.5% Secured Note"), (ii) the
               replacement of the 8% unsecured promissory note dated
               January 26, 1996 issued by the Registrant to VSI
               Corporation in the principal amount of $5,376,555 with
               a 6.5% unsecured promissory note dated as of January
               26, 1996 issued by the Registrant to VSI Corporation in
               the principal amount of $4,331,000 (the "6.5% Unsecured
               Note") and (iii) an additional cash payment by the
               Registrant to VSI Corporation in the amount of
               $1,291,444 (the "Additional Cash Payment"). The
               principal amount of the 6.5% Unsecured Note was reduced
               from $5,376,555 to $4,331,000 pursuant to an audit of
               the closing date balance sheet of the Business in
               accordance with the Purchase Agreement. As permitted by
               the notes, the Registrant subsequently prepaid all
               amounts owed with respect to the 6.5% Secured Note and
               the 6.5% Unsecured Note.

               In order to pay amounts owed in connection with the 6.5%
               Secured Note, the 6.5% Unsecured Note and the Additional
               Cash Payment, the Registrant (i) borrowed approximately
               $21,000,000 under its existing credit facilities and
               (ii) obtained the balance owed from its cash on hand, 
               arising principally from the proceeds of its recent
               public offering of common stock.
