AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K
The undersigned registrant amends Item 7 (a) and Item 7 (b) of its Current
Report on Form 8-K dated October 16, 1996, as follows:
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS.
(a) Financial statements of business acquired.
Effective November 18, 1996, the Securities and Exchange Commission revised
the rules which require registrants to provide financial statements for
significant business acquisitions (Release 33-7355). The acquired business
that is the subject of this filing does not meet the 20% threshold tests,
therefore, no financial statement information is required to be filed under
the amended rules. On October 16, 1996, the registrant filed a timely Current
Report of Form 8-K providing all other required information regarding the
acquisition event, except Item 7 (a) and (b) information. The registrant had
until December 16, 1996, to file an amendment providing the remaining data
under the then existing rules. Therefore, in compliance with this new rule,
the registrant will not file any financial statement data for the acquired
business.
(b) Pro forma financial information.
Effective November 18, 1996, the Securities and Exchange Commission revised
the rules which require registrants to provide pro forma financial information
for significant business acquisitions (Release 33-7355). The acquired
business that is the subject of this filing does not meet the 20% threshold
tests, therefore, no pro forma financial information is required to be filed
under the amended rules. On October 16, 1996, the registrant filed a timely
Current Report of Form 8-K providing all other required information regarding
the acquisition event, except Item 7 (a) and (b) information. The registrant
had until December 16, 1996, to file an amendment providing the remaining data
under the then existing rules. Therefore, in compliance with this new rule,
the registrant will not file any pro forma financial information related to
the acquired business.
