Item 5.           Other Events

         On August 8, 2000, the Company announced that it had terminated its
tender offer and related solicitation of consents to certain proposed amendments
for its 11% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company also announced that it filed
for protection under Chapter 11 of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. On August 9, 2000, the
Company will file a plan of reorganization that has been pre-approved by its
banks and bondholders in a format known as a "pre-packaged" bankruptcy.

The company also announced that the plan of reorganization includes a
substantial reduction in the company's subordinated debt through the cash
infusion from its major investor, Citicorp Venture Capital, Ltd. The company
will maintain liquidity through cash from operations and support from a $65
million facility provided by the existing bank group led by BNP Paribas as
agent. In addition, the majority of the bank group has already committed to a
$170 million exit financing facility that will finance the company upon
emergence from Chapter 11.
