ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On October 12, 1995, a hearing was held in the
matter of Maxcell Telecom Plus, Inc., vs. McCaw Cellular
Communications, et. al. (No. CL 93-9130 AJ) in the
Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in and
for Palm Beach County, Florida on a motion brought by
former shareholders of defendant Charisma Communications
Corporation ("Charisma"). The motion sought the court's
permission to amend the Charisma defendants' answer to
the complaint to add, among other things, counterclaims
and third-party claims alleging breach of fiduciary duty,
breach of contract, fraud and tortious interference with
business relationships against plaintiff Maxcell Telecom
Plus, Inc. ("Maxcell"), TPI Enterprises, Inc. (the
"Company") and Stephen R. Cohen, Maxcell's Chairman and
CEO and the Company's former Chairman. In the motion,
the Charisma defendants claim they have suffered damages
in excess of $1 billion. Maxcell is vigorously opposing
the motion and the court has not yet ruled on it. The
court has scheduled a further hearing on this matter for
November 17, 1995.
