         ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         Effective as of July 17, 2000, the Company will begin trading under the
symbol MYR on the American Stock Exchange. The Company has changed its corporate
name to Mayor's Jewelers, Inc. from Jan Bell Marketing, Inc. and currently
trades on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol JBM.

its luxury jewelry operations with its commitment to its Mayor's retail
platform, which the Company acquired in July, 1998. Further, the name change
will assist the Company in developing the brand name identity for the Mayor's
retail stores on a national basis.
