Item 5: OTHER EVENTS
The following disclosure is qualified in its entirety by the Amendment
to the Line of Credit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Effective September 30, 1999, Celerity entered into a line of credit
agreement with GMF Holdings ("GMF"), pursuant to which Celerity could require
GMF to purchase up to $5,000,000 principal amount of Celerity's 4% subordinated
convertible debentures due September 2004, as more fully described in a Current
Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October
8, 1999. At September 29, 2000, Celerity had issued $550,000 of debentures to
GMF. GMF's obligation to purchase additional debentures terminated on September
30, 2000, and was amended as of October 16, 2000. On substantially similar terms
as the prior agreement, GMF is now obligated to purchase up to $10,000,000
principal amount of convertible debentures until October 31, 2001. Celerity has
filed a registration statement covering the resale by GMF of up to 7,000,000
shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures.
