Item 5.  Other Events

         On October 30, 1998, the Registrant, Connectivity Technologies Inc.
(together with its subsidiary Connectivity Products Incorporated, hereinafter
called "Connectivity") entered into discussions with its lending Banks looking
to an extension of the Forbearance Agreement relating to its Revolving Credit
and Term Loan Agreement (the "Forbearance Agreement") which would otherwise
terminate on November 30, 1998.

         The discussions with the Agent Bank was initiated at this time to
provide additional time for Connectivity to consider its alternatives in light
of the termination of previously reported discussions with a prospective buyer
for Connectivity's EEA Division. Connectivity has been approached by potential
buyers for all of the assets of the company, including its EEA and BSCC
Divisions, but no assurances can be given that a transaction will result from
these preliminary contacts. Connectivity is in full compliance with all of the
terms and conditions of the Forbearance Agreement, including conditions relating
to sales and profitability and has discussed all of the foregoing with the Agent
Bank. On the basis of those discussions, Connectivity believes that the
Forbearance Agreement will be extended, although the Banks have made no
commitment and extension will depend upon further consideration and
investigation by the Banks and consultation between them and Connectivity so
that no assurances can be given of a favorable outcome.

         Additional information concerning the matters reported herein,
including the potentially negative consequences of the non extension of the
Forbearance Agreement, has previously been reported by Connectivity in prior
filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
