Item 5 - Other Events
- ---------------------
The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ") has notified Little Switzerland,
Inc. (the "Company") that the Company will not remain eligible for continued
listing on the NASDAQ National Market System ("NMS") unless its common stock
demonstrates compliance with NASDAQ's $1.00 minimum bid price during the period
ending September 6, 1999. Should the Company be unable to demonstrate
compliance with this requirement on or before September 6, 1999, the Company
will consider actions to preserve NMS listing and its current intent would be to
request a hearing as permitted by applicable NASDAQ procedure. In the event
that NASDAQ denies continued NMS listing following such a hearing, the Company's
current intent would be to seek listing on other markets or exchanges. However,
there is no assurance that any such actions will be effective or that NMS
listing will not cease after September 6, 1999.
