Item 5. Other Events.
On July 31, 2000, Foamex International Inc. (the "Company") issued a press
release announcing that the Company had reached an agreement (the "Exchange
Agreement") with The Bank of Nova Scotia (the "Bank") relating to shares of the
Company's common stock pledged to the Bank by an affiliate of Trace
International Holdings, Inc., which is in bankruptcy. The Exchange Agreement
provides for a transfer of the Company shares pledged to the Bank in a manner

is incorporated herein by reference.
