ITEM 5.       INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

       (a)    As of December 5, 1997, the parties to the New Voting Agreement
              amended such agreement to provide for the Prime Sellers who were
              parties thereto, including AVLP, to withdraw as parties to the New
              Voting Agreement.

              Since AVLP is no longer a party to the New Voting Agreement, it is
              no longer a member of the deemed "group" consisting of the parties
              thereto. AVLP holds no shares of the Class B common stock of the
              Company. AVLP expressly disclaims, for the purposes of Section
              13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, beneficial ownership of any other
              shares of Class B common stock of the Company.

       (b)    See Items 7-10 on the cover page.

       (c)    Not applicable.

       (d)    No other person has the right or the power to direct the receipt
              of dividends or the proceeds from the sale of the securities
              reported herein.

       (e)    With the amendment to the New Voting Agreement, AVLP ceased to be
              a member of any purported "group" related thereto. AVLP owns no
              shares of the Class B common stock of the Company. Therefore, AVLP
              ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
              outstanding Class B common stock of the Company as of December 5,
              1997, the effective date of the amendment to the New Voting
              Agreement.
