Item 5. Other Events.
The Company has received all necessary letters from its bank lenders and other financial institutions waiving any event of default or similar event that would have arisen from the Company's failure to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 as well as its failure to furnish its annual and quarterly financial statements for these periods to such lenders and financial institutions. These letters have various expiration dates, with the vase majority waiving these provisions through October 31, 2003.
In addition, the Company is filing as an exhibit to this report the Separation Agreement entered into between the Company and its former Chief Financial Officer, Mitchell Gordon. The Company is currently consulting with its auditors to determine the correct accounting treatment of the payments to be made to Mr. Gordon under the Separation Agreement. However, the Company anticipates that a majority of the financial impact of the Agreement will be reflected in the results for the quarter ended September 30, 2003.
