Item 5:  OTHER EVENTS

         As previously  disclosed,  the  settlement  agreements  among  Jennifer
Convertibles,  Inc. (the  "Company"),  a related  private  company (the "Private
Company") and others may be terminable upon written notice by the Company or the
Private  Company if not previously  approved by the Court.  Although the Company
disputes the Private  Company's  position that the agreements are so terminable,
there can be no  assurance  that the Company will  prevail in such  dispute.  By
letter dated July 16, 1998, the Company received written notice from the Private
Company  that it was  terminating  two of the  settlement  agreements  which  it
believes  will  result  in  termination  of  the  settlement  agreement  in  the
derivative  actions.  The parties  are  negotiating  to reach a new  settlement,
although  there can be no  assurance  as to its terms or that the  parties  will
enter into an agreement at all.
