Item 5. Other Events.
------------
Effective September 29, 2000, all of the holders of the Company's Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") exchanged their
shares for a like number of shares of the Company's Series A-1 Convertible
Preferred Stock (the "Series A-1 Preferred Stock"). The terms of the Series A-1
Preferred Stock are substantially the same as those of the Series A Preferred
Stock, except that the registrant's obligation to redeem in cash the Series A
Preferred Stock was eliminated so that the Series A-1 Preferred Stock can be
classified as stockholders' equity under generally accepted accounting
principles. The Series A-1 Preferred Stock is subject to redemption at the
earlier of a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) or
October 25, 2004 to the extent of the number of shares of the registrant's
Common Stock representing 19.9% of the outstanding Common Stock as of September
29, 2000 (valued at 90% of their Market Price (as defined in the Articles
Supplementary) calculated at the date of redemption). The shares of Series A-1
Preferred Stock that cannot be so redeemed are, at the election of the holder,
either (1) thereafter subject to a 16% dividend, or (2) subject to redemption in
additional shares of Common Stock valued at their market price on September 29,
2000. As was the case with the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-1
Preferred Stock is redeemable in cash at the registrant's option after October
25, 2004, or earlier under certain circumstances. The terms of the Series A-1
Preferred Stock are more fully described in the Articles Supplementary filed as
exhibit 3.1 hereto.
