Item 5.           Other Events


         Reference is made herein to that certain Amended and Restated 
Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 2, 1997 (the "Purchase
Amendment"), by and among Coventry Corporation (the "Company"), Warburg, Pincus
Ventures, L.P. ("Warburg Pincus") and Franklin Capital Associates, L.P., a copy
of which, together with the schedules and exhibits thereto, was attached as
Exhibit 10 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Commission on May 14,
1997 and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

         On June 30, 1997, the Second Closing (as such term is defined in
Section 2.3(b) of the Purchase Agreement) was consummated. At the Second
Closing, the Company issued and sold to Warburg Pincus convertible, exchangeable
senior subordinated notes in an aggregate principal amount of $13,155,020 and
warrants to purchase 773,825 shares of the Company's common stock, par value
$0.01 per share. The Company applied all of the net proceeds to prepay
approximately $13.9 million indebtedness outstanding under the Third Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 28, 1997, among the Company, the
banks listed therein, and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as Agent
("Credit Agreement"). As a result the payments required under the Credit
Agreement will be $12,176,923 due December 31, 1997 and $43,823,577 due April 1,
1998. In addition, a material adverse change in the Company's business,
financial condition or results of operations is no longer an event of default
under the Third Amended Credit Agreement.
