ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

         As reported in the Form 8-K for January 20, 1999, Solo Serve
Corporation (the "Company") filed a voluntary petition on January 20, 1999
under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, Case No. 99-50272-C (the "Filing"), in
the United States Bankruptcy Court, Western District of Texas, San Antonio
Division, Bankruptcy Judge Ronald B. King presiding (the "Bankruptcy Court").
Since the Filing, Solo Serve Corporation, has acted as Debtor in Possession and
continued to operate and manage its affairs.

         The Company filed Schedules and Statements with the Bankruptcy Court.
The Schedules and Statements disclosed that the Company holds no real property,
and that the then current market value of the Company's interest in personal
property (without any adjustment for liens) included $167,051 cash on hand;
$579,473.67 in financial accounts and credit card receipts; $588,403 in
security deposits; an interest of unknown value in certain insurance and risk
management policies; $86,882 in accounts receivable; $112,459 in liquidated
debts; trademarks and software licenses of unknown value; supplies at cost
value of $122,542; net book value of $1,575,393 in furniture, fixtures, and
equipment; net book value of $1,308,433 in leasehold improvements; inventory at
cost value of $7,867,697; and certain other deposits and prepaid expenses and
expected refunds totaling $274,914. The Schedules and Statements also listed
liabilities including $6,371,120.79 in secured claims and $11,099,200.43 in
unsecured nonpriority claims. The Summary of Schedules filed with the
Bankruptcy Court is attached to this Report as Exhibit 99.1. A complete copy of
the Schedules and Statements, the exhibits and attachments thereto, and other
pleadings may be obtained by contacting the Office of the Clerk of the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio
Division, 615 E. Houston Street, San Antonio, Texas 78205, (210) 472-6720.

Inventory Liquidation

         Pursuant to the Agency Agreement between the Company and
Hillco/Garcel/Nassi, liquidation of the inventory in the Company's stores has
continued. It is anticipated that the inventory liquidation will be concluded
and stores will be turned back to the Company on or about March 29, 1999. The
proceeds of the inventory liquidation have been applied to reduce the
outstanding balance on the Company's secured debt to Sanwa, which has now been
paid in full. Excess proceeds will be utilized to provide funds necessary for
continuing operation of the Company on a reduced scale while the Company
continues to seek to maximize the value of its assets for the benefit of its
creditors. Other than employees in the stores, the Company currently has
fourteen full-time employees, as compared to 78 full-time employees on January
15, 1999.

Other Assets

         The Company pursued a number of alternatives with regard to its store
leases, some of which contemplated continued operation of the stores under new
ownership. However, no final proposal contemplating continued operations was
submitted, and the Company has engaged Keen Realty as its real estate
consultant to work with the Company to dispose of twenty store leases. In an
order entered March 5, 1999, the Bankruptcy Court approved auction procedures


<PAGE>   3

and set a March 24, 1999 auction date for the twenty store leases in an order
entered March 5, 1999. In that regard, bids are due on the subject store leases
on March 18, 1999, with the auction to be held on March 24, 1999 before the
Bankruptcy Court. The leases in question include ten San Antonio leases, two
Austin leases, two Corpus Christi leases, two leases along the U.S./Mexico
Border, and four leases in Louisiana.

         The Company has entered into a Lease Termination Agreement providing
for the termination of the lease relating to its McAllen store. The court has
approved the Termination Agreement, which contemplates a payment of $50,000 to
the Company in exchange for termination of the lease. The Company also has
filed a motion seeking approval of the sale and assignment by the Company of
two leases in New Orleans to Michael's Stores for aggregate consideration of
$300,000. A hearing is scheduled on this motion for March 23, 1999.

         With regard to its distribution center, the Company has entered into a
Lease Termination Agreement with Koontz/McCombs, the Company's Distribution
Center Landlord, providing for the payment to the Company of $150,000 in
exchange for termination of the lease. Under the Agreement, the Company can
continue to occupy the premises through the end of July, 1999 unless Koontz
McCombs gives notice prior to that time requiring the Company to vacate the
premises. Any such notice would give the Company thirty days to vacate the
premises and cannot require the Company to vacate the premises prior to April
30, 1999.

         The Company has also sought and obtained an order authorizing the sale
of the furniture, fixtures and equipment in the Company's stores and in the
distribution center on terms set forth in the Motion. Generally, the
liquidation of furniture, fixture and equipment requires that certain minimum
amounts be realized for the furniture, fixture and equipment at specific store
locations and at the Distribution Center. The Company is continuing its efforts
to liquidate these assets on terms consistent with the Court's order.

         The Bankruptcy Court has established a date by which all claims
against the Company must be filed. Thereafter the court will determine the
validity, amount and priority of the claims submitted. Funds remaining after
liquidation of the assets and payment of secured administrative and/or priority
claims, if any, would be allocated to the Company's unsecured creditors in
proportion to the amounts of their respective allowed claims. No assurance can
be given as to the amount, if any, that will be available to be allocated to
the Company's unsecured creditors. No value will be afforded to the interests
of the holders of the Company's Common Stock or Preferred Stock.

Forward-looking Statements

         Forward-looking statements in this Report are made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
There are certain important factors that could cause results to differ
materially from those anticipated by some of the statements made above.
Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainty. Among the principal uncertainties facing the Company at this time
are uncertainty regarding the amounts likely to be realized from sale of the
Company's remaining assets and the costs associated with the bankruptcy
process. The Company does not undertake to

publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements even if experience or
future changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or implied
therein will not be realized.

         Copies of the bankruptcy petition and other pleadings may be obtained
by contacting the Office of the Clerk of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division, 615 E.
