ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

                  As previously disclosed in AmeriServe's Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended September 25, 1999, AmeriServe expects to
increase its bank-funded revolving credit line by $100 million. AmeriServe has
now received a formal commitment providing for an increase of $100 million in
the amount available under its revolving credit line. The increase is subject to
AmeriServe and the lenders entering into formal documentation and customary
closing conditions, and certain approvals of AmeriServe's existing bank lenders,
and is expected to close within the timeframe previously reported. Following the
increase in the revolving credit line, total availability under the line will be
$225 million.

                  Separately, several of AmeriServe's larger customers have
taken or committed to take actions to enhance AmeriServe's liquidity.

                  AmeriServe is also on schedule to complete other transactions
and activities providing current and expected sources of liquidity as outlined
in the Form 10-Q Report.

                  This report contains certain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933 concerning, among other things, AmeriServe's
financial results, future plans, objectives, expected performance and potential
efficiencies and improvements, as well as customer, supplier and other
relationships. Specifically, statements in this report that are not historical
facts, including statements accompanied by words such as "will," "believe,"
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend" or "plan" are intended to identify
forward-looking statements and convey the uncertainty of future events or
outcomes. AmeriServe cautions readers that any such forward-looking statements
are based on assumptions that it believes are reasonable, but are subject to a
wide range of risk, and there is no assurance that actual results may not differ
materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date hereof. NEHC and AmeriServe undertakes no obligation
to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances
after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence or nonoccurrence of
anticipated events. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from projected results include but are not limited to: the ability to
realize anticipated cost efficiencies, the effect of market conditions, the
impact of competitive actions and the integration of acquisitions, among other
things. Additional information as to these and other relevant matters can be
found in AmeriServe's Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on April 30,
1999, as well as AmeriServe's annual, periodic and other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, and this report should be
