RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On January 19, 1998, Coinmach Laundry signed definitive agreements to
acquire Macke Laundry Service, L.P. and related entities ("Macke") for a
purchase price of approximately $214.0 million. Macke, headquartered in Chicago,
operates approximately 236,000 machines throughout the United States. For the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, Macke had revenues of approximately $122.0
million and EBITDA of approximately $39.0 million, on a pro forma basis taking
into account certain of Macke's acquisitions. Consummation of the Macke
acquisition, which is currently expected to occur in March of 1998, is subject
to the receipt of certain regulatory and other approvals. Accordingly, there can
be no assurance that Coinmach Laundry will consummate the Macke acquisition.
Coinmach Laundry intends to finance the Macke acquisition with cash and
borrowings, including borrowings of up to an additional $200 million in term
loans under the Credit Facility, through an expansion of the Credit Facility,
which is currently being negotiated. Such term loans are expected to mature on
June 30, 2005, to be subject to the same mandatory repayment terms as those
applicable to the Company's current term loan facility and to bear interest at
the rate per annum currently set forth in the Credit Facility. There can,
however, be no assurance that Coinmach Laundry will be able to obtain such
financing.
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION AMENDS THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER THE
CAPTION "CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER" ON PAGE 17 OF THE PROSPECTUS.

(before giving effect to shares of Coinmach Laundry Common Stock issuable upon
