ACCEL INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
FORM 8-K
CURRENT REPORT
AMENDMENT TO FORM 8-K FILED FEBRUARY 4, 2000
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.
(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired.
On February 4, 2000, ACCEL International Corporation ("ACCEL")
filed Form 8-K related to the acquisition by Accelerated
Agency Group, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly-owned
subsidiary of ACCEL, of substantially all of the assets of
Unistar Florida Holdings, Inc. ("Unistar"), a Florida
corporation and a formally wholly-owned subsidiary of Unistar
Financial Services Corp., a Delaware Corporation, pursuant to
the terms and conditions of that certain Asset Purchase
Agreement, dated as of January 20, 2000.
No financial statements of Unistar were provided in that Form
8-K filing. In that Form 8-K filing, a statement was made that
such financials will be provided when they become available.
Since that filing, the financials of Unistar have become
available. However, in accordance with Rule 3-05 under
Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, none of the conditions exceeds 20 percent, and
therefore the financial statements are not required to be
filed.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information.
No pro forma financial information is provided in this Current
Report on Form 8-K since the same conditions for exemptions
under said Rule 3-05 for filing of Financial Statements also
applies to pro forma statements.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the
