Item 5: OTHER EVENTS
Beginning December 1, 1995, the Company will distribute to its banks and
other lenders, principal trade vendors and factors, the monthly and year-to-
date financial results and other financial data for the period ended October
28, 1995 (fiscal October), together with projected financial information for
similar periods as contained in the Company's revised plan for the year ending
January 27, 1996 (the "Revised Plan"). Such financial results are attached
hereto as Exhibit 20, and are incorporated by reference herein.
Such financial monthly results and other financial data and information
concerning the Revised Plan are being reported publicly solely because they are
being distributed to a large number of the Company's principal trade vendors,
banks, and other lenders and factors to facilitate their credit analyses. These
results should not be relied upon for any other purpose and should be read in
conjunction with the Company's Form 10-K for fiscal 1994 and Forms 10-Q for the
first quarter and second quarter of 1995. Although the Company is publicly
reporting its monthly results during fiscal 1995, the Company does not believe
it is obligated to provide such information indefinitely and may cease making
such disclosures and updates at any time. Moreover, the Company does not believe
that it is obligated to update monthly results to reflect subsequent events or
developments.
For information concerning the Revised Plan, including the limitations
thereof and certain assumptions made in its formulation, reference is made to
the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, dated September 2, 1995.
