Item 3.  BANKRUPTCY OR RECEIVERSHIP

       On August 19, 1997, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the 
District of Delaware (the "Court") confirmed the Registrant's Prepackaged 
Plan of Reorganization (the "Prepackaged Plan").

      The Prepackaged Plan generally consists of the following transactions: 
(i) the cancellation and exchange of approximately $169.0 million of Senior 
Subordinated Pay-In-Kind Debentures due March 15, 2002 ("Senior Debentures") 
and liquidated non-contingent claims and approximately $41.1 million of 
Subordinated Pay-In-Kind Debentures due March 15, 2002 ("Subordinated 
Debentures") on the basis of 56 shares of the Registrant's newly created 
Common Stock ("Common Stock") for each $1,000 principal amount of Senior 
Debentures or liquidated non-contingent claims and 28 shares of Common Stock 
for each $1,000 principal amount of Subordinated Debentures (all after 
consolidation of all outstanding shares of capital stock into a single class 
of Common Stock and the reverse stock split described below); (ii) the 
reclassification and combination of each share of the Company's Series A 
Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") and Class A Common Stock (the "Class 
A Common Stock") outstanding prior to the effective date of the Prepackaged 
Plan into one and three-quarter (1.75) shares and one (1) share, 
respectively, of Common Stock (the "Capital Stock Combination"); (iii) the 
reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the 
Registrant on a one for one hundred (1:100) basis (the "Reverse Stock 
Split"); (iv) the implementation of numerous amendments to the Registrant's 
Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Restated Certificate") and 
Amended Bylaws (the "Bylaws") to effect the Capital Stock Combination and the 
Reverse Stock Split, to provide for authorized capital stock of 18 million 
shares of Common Stock, to eliminate the Registrant's classified board of 
directors which existed prior to the the effective date of the Prepackaged 
Plan and to remove various anti-takeover provisions contained in the Restated 
Certificate and Bylaws prior to the effective date of the Prepackaged Plan, 
including all supermajority voting provisions, certain restrictions on 
stockholders' ability to call special meetings and restrictions on 
stockholders' ability to act by written consent; and (v) the reconstitution 
and expansion of the Registrant's board of directors to include four 
incumbent directors and six new directors, each to serve for one year terms. 
There are currently approximately 48,938,507 and 38,886,590 issued and 
outstanding shares of the Registrant's Class A Common Stock and Preferred 
Stock, respectively. Upon completion of the Registrant's recapitalization, 
there will be approximately 11.8 million shares of Common Stock outstanding, 
excluding shares of Common Stock underlying certain options and warrants.

       Information concerning the Registrant's assets and liabilities is set 
forth in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended 
(Registration Nos. 333-29883 and 333-22121) and the Registrant's Quarterly 
Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997, 
which information is incorporated herein by reference. The Prepackaged Plan, 
as confirmed by the Court, is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Registrant's 
Current Report on Form 8-K filed July 21, 1997 and is incorporated herein by 
reference.

       On August 19, 1997, the Registrant issued a press release, a copy of 
which is attached hereto and is incorporated herein by reference, which 
describes the confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan by the Court.

       Certain of the foregoing information is forward looking in its nature 
and involves risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact the 
ability of the Registrant to achieve its currently anticipated goals and 
objectives.
