                  be conducted within the next several weeks at nine stores.
                  Under the agreement with Gordon Brothers, Luria's received an
                  up-front cash payment of approximately $8.6 million for the

                  to consolidate and geographically focus its efforts on

                  1996. After the sales are completed, the Company will operate

                  the closed stores.
