ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
New Generation Foods, Inc. (the "Company") has acquired an option (the
"Option") to purchase the assets of the Credit Risk Monitor credit information
service ("CRM") from Market Guide Inc. ("MGI"). Exercise of the Option, which
expires November 30, 1998 unless extended to no later than January 31, 1999 (the
"Option Period"), is at the sole discretion of the Company and is conditioned
on, among other things, the Company's ability to raise financing of
approximately $2.5 million to fund the initial payment and CRM's working capital
requirements. There can be no assurance that said financing will be obtained
and/or that the Option will be exercised.
During the Option Period, Jerome S. Flum, Chairman and President of the
Company, will act as an unpaid, part-time consultant to MGI, assisting in the
management of CRM.
If the Option is exercised, the purchase price for the CRM assets will
be approximately $2.5 Million, less the amount of $60,000 paid by the Company
for the Option (subject to increase, up to $70,000, if the Option Period is
extended until January 31, 1998), and subject to certain other adjustments. Of
this price, approximately $1.5 Million is payable in cash at the closing and the
balance will be evidenced by a promissory note, payable with interest at the
rate of 6% per annum which shall accrue commencing July 1, 2001, in 24 equal
monthly installments of principal and interest commencing July 30, 2001 and
ending June 30, 2003. Certain other costs and expenses to be paid by the
Company, in an amount to be determined at closing, will be evidenced by a
separate promissory note, payable with interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum,
which shall accrue from the closing date until January 30, 2001, whereupon all
principal and accrued interest will be payable in 24 equal monthly installments
of principal and interest commencing January 31, 2001 and ending December 31,
2003. The notes will be secured by a first priority purchase money security
interest on substantially all of the assets of the Company.
A copy of the press release issued by the Company in connection with
the acquisition of the Option is attached as Exhibit 20 hereto.
