ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
At the Board of Directors Meeting held on January 21, 1997, the following
items were approved:
(1) A 3-for-2 stock split was approved payable
February 10, 1997 to shareholders of record
as of February 3.
(2) A dividend of $0.22 per share on a post-split
basis was declared payable February 13, 1997
to shareholders of record as of February 3. On
an annual basis, the dividend would amount to
$0.88 per share on a post-split basis versus the
$0.827 per share on a post-split basis paid in
1996.
(3) The Board authorized the repurchase of
450,000 post-split shares. The repurchases
would be made in privately negotiated and
open market transactions. The repurchases
would be dependent on management's assess-
ment of market conditions and regulatory rules
and limitations which, from time to time, may
preclude Pinnacle from repurchasing its
common shares.
