Item 5. Other Events.

         On October 30, 1996, ILX Incorporated ("ILX") entered into an Agreement
for Purchase and Sale (the  "Agreement")  with Debbie  Reynolds  Hotel & Casino,
Inc., a Nevada  corporation,  ("DRHC") (OTC: DEBI) and Debbie Reynolds  Resorts,
Inc.,  a Nevada  corporation,  ("DRC")  whereby ILX could  acquire,  among other
assets,  the physical assets  constituting the Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino in
Las Vegas,  Nevada.  The purchase price for the assets was  $16,800,000  and was
payable by issuance to DRHC of  $7,500,000  worth of  federally  registered  ILX
common  stock  valued  for  purposes  of the  transaction  at  $2.00  per  share
(totalling 3,750,000 shares), as well as payment of $4,200,000 in cash and ILX's
assumption of $5,100,000 in mortgage indebtedness.

         Consummation  of the transaction was contingent on, among other things,
satisfaction  of various  conditions by the sellers and the  completion of ILX's
due  diligence  investigation.  On May 15, 1997,  ILX  transmitted  the required
formal written notice of its election to cancel and terminate the Agreement (the
"Election  Notice")  effective  immediately,  although ILX's management  remains
hopeful  that  the  parties  may yet  structure  some  other  type of  strategic
relationship involving the Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino.

Re: Cancellation of Agreement for Purchase and Sale

Dear Todd:

This letter is to serve as the required formal written notice of our election to
cancel and terminate that certain  Agreement for Purchase and Sale dated October
30, 1996, by and between ILX Incorporated (as Buyer) and Debbie Reynolds Hotel &
Casino,  Inc., and Debbie  Reynolds  Resorts,  Inc.,  (collectively  as Seller),
effective  immediately.  Since,  to the  best  of  our  knowledge,  the  subject
Agreement  was never  placed in escrow nor  executed by the Escrow Agent (and no
notice address is provided in the subject  Agreement),  we are not  transmitting
notice to Escrow Agent.

With those  formalities  behind us, and on a personal note, I want to say what a
pleasure it has been working  with  you,  David,  and the other  members of your
staff in connection with this transaction.  We remain hopeful that we will be in
a position to restructure our  relationship  along the lines we discussed in Las
Vegas  last  week,  and we are  looking  forward  to our  continued  association
relative to the Red Rock Collection line of personal care products.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,


/s/ Joseph P. Matori
Joseph P. Matori
Chairman
