ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

     On September 30, 1998, White Pine Software, Inc. (the "Company") terminated
the employment of Bruce W. Lichorowic, its Vice President of Sales for the
Americas and Pacific Rim. Mr. Lichorowic had served in this position since April
1998.

     On October 15, 1998, the Company terminated the employment of Brian L.
Lichorowic, its Vice President of Marketing. Mr. Lichorowic had served in this
position since August 1996.

     The Company currently expects to combine the two sales and marketing
positions into a single office, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. It has
engaged an executive search firm to assist it in locating candidates for this
position. In the interim, Killko A. Caballero, the President of the Company,
will serve as the Company's principal sales and marketing executive. The Company
believes that the temporary vacancy in its sales and marketing office will not
have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of
operations.
