ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On March 7, 1996, the Registrant's Board of Directors voted to extend
the expiration date of the Registrant's Common Stock Purchase Warrants. The
Warrants, which were due to expire on June 24, 1996, will now expire at 5:00
P.M. (New York time) on December 31, 1997.
Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of the
Registrant's Common Stock, $.60 par value, at a price of $4.00 per share
(subject to adjustment as provided in the agreement under which the Warrants
were issued).
In connection with the extension of the Warrants, the Warrantholders
need not surrender or exchange presently outstanding Warrants. The Warrants will
be deemed amended to give effect to the extension without any Warrantholder
action.
