Item 5.           Other Events

On June 4, 1999,  Continental  Information Systems, Inc. (the "Company") settled
all litigation with Greg M. Cody and Charles C. Sinks,  the former owners of the
Company's LaserAccess printing business.  This litigation is described in Item 3
of the  Company's  Annual  Report  on Form 10K  filed  with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission on August 25, 1998. In consideration of a cash payment,  the
Company  received a complete  release of all claims  against it and released all
claims against  Messrs.  Cody and Sinks.  As a result,  all  litigation  pending
between the parties will be dismissed with prejudice. The Company had previously
reserved amounts sufficient to cover the settlement payment, and it will have no
material impact on the Company's financial statements.
