ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

As previously reported in a Form 8-K filed on October 16, 1992, the Company's
indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Foster Insurance Managers, Inc., a Texas
corporation ("FIM"), is party to an Agency and Management Services Agreement
(the "Agency Agreement") with Foster Insurance Services, Inc., a Texas
corporation ("FIS"), pursuant to which FIS serves FIM as its local recording
agent in the State of Texas and FIM provides management consulting services to
FIS and maintains insurance markets for the placement of the insurance business
produced by FIS. FIM is also party to a Buy-Sell Agreement (the "Buy-Sell
Agreement") with FIS and Edward G. Britt, Jr. ("Britt"), the sole shareholder of
FIS. For a description of the terms of the Agency Agreement and the Buy-Sell
Agreement, reference is made to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed
on October 16, 1992 and the exhibits attached thereto, which are incorporated by
reference herein.

On August 29, 1996, Britt exercised his put option pursuant to Section 2(a) of
the Buy-Sell Agreement to require FIM to purchase all of the shares of FIS
common stock held by Britt for the put option price of $1,000. By the same
notice, Britt also exercised his option pursuant to Section 2(b) of the Buy-Sell
Agreement to purchase all of the assets, liabilities and business of FIS at
fifty percent (50%) of their Fair Market Value (as defined in the Buy-Sell
Agreement). FIM and Britt are in the process of determining such Fair Market
Value either by direct negotiation or with the assistance of an independent
third party appraiser. Upon the consummation of the purchases and sales
described above, the Agency Agreement and the Buy- Sell Agreement will terminate
and the Company no longer will have any interest in the insurance brokerage
business currently operated through FIS.
