ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

     On November 18, 1997, Spinnaker Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation 
(the "Registrant") entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset 
Purchase Agreement") with S. D. Warren Company ("Seller") to purchase 
Seller's pressure sensitive business (the "Pressure Sensitive Business") 
located next to Seller's paper mill in Westbrook, Maine (the "Acquisition"). 
Seller is a large pulp and paper producer owned by an indirect wholly owned 
subsidiary of SAPPI, Ltd., a public South African conglomerate.

     The Pressure Sensitive Business is a major manufacturer and marketer of 
pressure sensitive adhesive-backed label stock primarily for the electronic 
data processing ("EDP") segment of the label stock market. The Pressure 
Sensitive Business generated $62.1 million of net sales in the fiscal year 
ended October 1, 1997, which, on a pro forma basis, accounted for 21% of the 
Registrant's net sales for the twelve months ended September 30, 1997.

     The Acquisition is consistent with the Registrant's long-term strategy for
expanding its presence in the market for adhesive-backed label stock. The
Registrant believes the addition of the Pressure Sensitive Business to
Brown-Bridge's adhesive-backed label stock business will make the Registrant
the fifth largest producer of label stock and the second largest provider
of EDP label stock.  Management of the Registrant believes that the strategic
benefits of the Acquisition will be primarily derived from cross-selling
opportunities, overhead reduction, manufacturing efficiencies and purchasing
savings.

     Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Registrant agreed to 
purchase from Seller  substantially all of the assets (other than real 
property) relating to the Pressure Sensitive Business.  In connection with 
its purchase of the Pressure Sensitive Business, the Registrant intends to 
enter into a Site Lease, pursuant to which the Registrant will lease from 
Seller a portion of the Westbrook facility for a term of 99 years at a 
nominal rent of $1.00 per year, and a Site Separation and Services Agreement 
pursuant to which the Registrant shall obtain utility, supply shipping, 
storage, maintenance and administrative services from the Seller.  The 
Registrant will also enter into a Space Lease, whereby it will temporarily 
lease certain industrial space from Seller for the operation of the Pressure 
Sensitive Business.  The purchase price to be paid by the Registrant for the 
Pressure Sensitive Business is approximately $52.8 million, plus the 
assumption of certain liabilities, subject to a working capital adjustment.

     The Registrant is also filing a report on Form 8-K pertaining to the 
Registrant's announcement of its proposed sale of approximately 1,000,000 
shares of a newly created class of convertible preferred stock (the 
"Preferred Stock").  The Registrant anticipates funding the purchase price 
with new borrowings under its existing Revolving Credit Facility with Bankers 
Trust Company (which is being amended to increase the available credit line 
thereunder to an aggregate $60 million) and approximately $23.6 million in 
net proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Stock.

     The Pressure Sensitive Business' plant, which is highly automated and 
efficient, specializes in manufacturing pressure sensitive materials 

                                        2

<PAGE>

with a focus on electronic data processing products for large accounts.  
Because of initial post-acquisition costs and interest expense related to the 
Acquisition, the Pressure Sensitive Business is not expected to contribute 
materially to Registrant's profitability in fiscal 1998.

     Registrant also has a letter of intent to acquire substantially all of 
the assets of an industrial tape manufacturer for approximately $20 million.  
Consummation of that transaction is subject to various conditions, including 
without limitation due diligence, execution of a definitive agreement and 
Board approval.  The business generated net sales of approximately $20.0 
million in 1996, on an unaudited basis.

     There can be no assurance that either of the above transactions will be
consummated.

                       UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

    The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information of 
the Registrant is based on the historical consolidated financial statements 
of the Registrant and has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the 
offering of the Preferred Stock (the "Offering") and the acquisition by the 
Registrant from S.D. Warren Company (the "Seller") of the Seller's pressure 
sensitive label stock business (the "Pressure Sensitive Business") located in 
Westbrook, Maine (the "Acquisition") as though both had occurred as of the 
beginning of each period presented for the pro forma statements of operations 
and as if they had occurred on September 30, 1997 for the pro forma balance 
sheet.

    The pro forma adjustments include, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary to give pro forma effect to the Offering and the
Acquisition as though such transactions had occurred as of the beginning of each
period presented for the pro forma statements of operations and as if they had
occurred on September 30, 1997 for the pro forma balance sheet.

    The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is not 
necessarily indicative of how the Registrant's balance sheet and results of 
operations would have been presented had the Offering and the Acquisition 
actually been consummated at the assumed dates, nor is it necessarily 
indicative of presentation of the Registrant's balance sheet and results of 
operations for any future period.

    The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information. These 
adjustments are directly attributable to the Offering and the Acquisition and 
are expected to have a continuing impact on the Registrant's business, 
results of operations and financial position. The Acquisition will be 
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, pursuant to which the 
total purchase cost of the Acquisition will be allocated to the tangible and 
intangible assets and liabilities acquired based upon their estimated fair 
values. The final allocation of the purchase price will be based upon the 
fair market valuation of the acquired assets and the assumed liabilities; 
however, such allocation is not expected to differ materially from the 
preliminary allocation.

     costs previously allocated by the Seller, which the Pressure Sensitive
     Business will not be subject to under the Site Separation and Service

     with the Acquisition, as only the direct charges for such services will be
     charged under this agreement.
