Item 5.  Other Events.

    As previously reported,  the Company and West Coast Entertainment 
Corporation ("West Coast") entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as 
of December 16, 1996, as amended (the "Agreement"), providing for the sale, 
transfer and assignment of substantially all of the Company's assets and 
business to West Coast (the "West Coast Transaction"). Under the Agreement, 
consummation of the West Coast Transaction is contingent upon a number of 
conditions, the satisfaction of which cannot be assured, including, among 
others, West Coast obtaining financing (as described in the Agreement) in an 
amount sufficient to enable it to consumate the West Coast Transaction and 
certain additional acquisitions.  The Company has been advised by West Coast 
that West Coast has not yet obtained such financing, but that West Coast 
expects to obtain such financing sometime during the latter part of May, 
1997.  At the request of West Coast, the Company has agreed to amend the 
Agreement, to extend the termination date thereunder from a date no later 
than April 30, 1997, to a date no later than May 31, 1997.  There can be no 
assurance that such financing will be obtained by May 31, 1997.
