ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.


     As  previously  reported,   Nebco  Evans  Holding  Company's  wholly  owned
subsidiary,  AmeriServe Food Distribution, Inc. ("AmeriServe"),  was informed by
Wendy's International,  Inc. ("Wendy's"), the franchiser of the Wendy's concept,
that a competitor  has been selected as its  distributor  in certain  geographic
markets  and  that  Wendy's   would  begin  to  transfer  the  business  of  its
company-owned units away from AmeriServe  beginning in August 1998. In addition,
Wendy's has notified AmeriServe that AmeriServe will be removed as an authorized
distributor to its franchisee  operators  during the third quarter of this year,
resulting in the loss of the entire Wendy's business. In total, AmeriServe sales
to the Wendy's concept,  including ProSource,  Inc. sales, on a pro forma basis,
were  approximately $600 million in 1997. As a result of the loss of the Wendy's
business, AmeriServe intends to take a $7.5 million charge in the second quarter
of this year.  AmeriServe  expects  that the loss of the Wendy's  business  will
negatively impact AmeriServe's future operating profits by $10-$15 million on an
annualized basis.
