ITEM 5.           OTHER EVENTS

         On October 2,  1996,  Centennial  Technologies,  Inc.  (the  "Company")
purchased Three Hundred Eighty (380) shares of Common Stock (the "Infos Shares")
of Infos  International,  Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Infos USA"), from Infos
International,  S. A., a Luxembourg  corporation and the parent company of Infos
USA ("Infos LUX"),  pursuant to an Investment and Stockholders  Agreement by and
among the Company,  Infos USA and Infos LUX, dated August 30, 1996. As a result,
the Company currently has a thirty-eight percent (38%) interest in Infos USA.

         The  consideration  tendered  to Infos  LUX in  exchange  for the Infos
Shares was $2,000,000 in cash and 115,004 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
The Company also made a capital  investment of $895,000 in Infos USA. The amount
of  consideration  exchanged was determined by negotiations  between the Company
and Infos LUX.  The Company  used a portion of the  proceeds  received  from its
subsequent public offering completed in March 1996 to finance this transaction.

         Infos USA is the parent  company  of Infos  Italia  S.r.l.,  an Italian
corporation, Infos Espana, S.A., a Spanish Corporation, Sofni-Sistemas Portateis
de  Informacao,  LDA,  a  Portuguese  corporation,   Infos  Limited,  a  British
corporation,  and Infos GmbH, a German corporation  (collectively be referred to
