ITEM 5.       INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

                  Not applicable.

ITEM 6.       INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         The New York Business Corporation Law ("NYBCL") in general permits a
New York corporation to indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a
party to an action or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she was a
director or officer of the corporation, or served another entity in any capacity
at the request of the corporation, against any judgment, fines, amounts paid in
settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees actually and
necessarily incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal
therein, if such person acted in good faith, for a purpose he or she reasonably
believed to be in, or, in the case of service for another entity, not opposed
to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal actions or
proceedings, in addition had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her
conduct was unlawful. The NYBCL generally permits a corporation to grant other
rights to indemnification through its certificate of incorporation or by-laws,
or by resolution of shareholders or directors or by agreement to corporate
officers and directors except in instances where a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the officer or director establishes that (i) his or her
acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or (ii) the
officer or director personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.

         The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation permits the Company
to indemnify any officer, director or other person to the fullest extent from
time to time permitted by law, and provides that, to the extent consistent
therewith, the Company shall indemnify or advance expenses to any officer,
director or other person to the fullest extent required by or pursuant to any
present or future by-law of the Company, agreement approved by the Board of
Directors, or resolution of shareholders or directors.

         In general, the Company's By-Laws provide that the Company shall
indemnify each corporate officer and director (as well as any person serving
another entity, trust or employee benefit plan in any capacity at the Company's
request) against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with the defense or as a result of any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (including civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative and actions by or in the right of the
Company or other entity, trust or employee benefit plan) to which the person
seeking indemnification is made or threatened to be made a party by virtue of
serving in any of those capacities, except in instances where the NYBCL
prohibits indemnification.

         In addition, the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
provides that directors shall not be liable to the Company or its shareholders
for damages for any breach of duty as a director, except for liability a
director may have for any act or omission prior to the effectiveness of the
Restated Certificate of Incorporation or if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the director establishes that: (i) the director's acts
or omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law; (ii) the director personally gained in fact a financial profit
or other advantage to which the director was not legally entitled; or (iii) the
director's acts violated NYBCL Section 719 (which imposes liability on
transactions when contrary to NYBCL provisions). This provision also provides
that if the Company may by law be permitted to further eliminate or limit the
personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director shall, at such
time, automatically be further eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
permitted by law.


                                      II-2
<PAGE>

         As permitted by New York law, the Company maintains certain insurance
covering the Company's obligation to indemnify directors and officers and also
covering director and officers individually, subject to certain limitations, in
instances in which they may not otherwise be indemnified by the Company.

  5       The opinion of counsel contemplated by Item 601(b)(5)(i) of Regulation
          S-K is not required because the shares of Common Stock being
          registered are not original issue shares. In addition, neither an
          opinion of counsel nor an Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
          determination letter is required under Item 601(b)(5)(ii) of
          Regulation S-K because the Registrant has included the undertaking
          contained below in this Item 8.

     Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 1996 (File No. 1-9232).

**   Incorporated by reference to Exhibit 3.2 to the Company's Annual Report on
     Form 10-K for the year ended October 30, 1998 (File No. 1-9232).

     The Registrant has received all required determinations from the IRS that
the Plan, as amended to date, is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal
Revenue Code and hereby undertakes to submit to the IRS in a timely manner any
amendment to the Plan which is required to be submitted and has made or will
make all changes required by the IRS to qualify the Plan.

ITEM 9.       UNDERTAKINGS

     (A) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

         (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;


<PAGE>

         (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

         (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the
registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

     (B) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act) that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

     (C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

ITEM 5.       INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

                  Not applicable.

ITEM 6.       INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         The New York Business Corporation Law ("NYBCL") in general permits a
New York corporation to indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a
party to an action or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she was a
director or officer of the corporation, or served another entity in any capacity
at the request of the corporation, against any judgment, fines, amounts paid in
settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees actually and
necessarily incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal
therein, if such person acted in good faith, for a purpose he or she reasonably
believed to be in, or, in the case of service for another entity, not opposed
to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal actions or
proceedings, in addition had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her
conduct was unlawful. The NYBCL generally permits a corporation to grant other
rights to indemnification through its certificate of incorporation or by-laws,
or by resolution of shareholders or directors or by agreement to corporate
officers and directors except in instances where a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the officer or director establishes that (i) his or her
acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or (ii) the
officer or director personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.

         The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation permits the Company
to indemnify any officer, director or other person to the fullest extent from
time to time permitted by law, and provides that, to the extent consistent
therewith, the Company shall indemnify or advance expenses to any officer,
director or other person to the fullest extent required by or pursuant to any
present or future by-law of the Company, agreement approved by the Board of
Directors, or resolution of shareholders or directors.

         In general, the Company's By-Laws provide that the Company shall
indemnify each corporate officer and director (as well as any person serving
another entity, trust or employee benefit plan in any capacity at the Company's
request) against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with the defense or as a result of any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (including civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative and actions by or in the right of the
Company or other entity, trust or employee benefit plan) to which the person
seeking indemnification is made or threatened to be made a party by virtue of
serving in any of those capacities, except in instances where the NYBCL
prohibits indemnification.

         In addition, the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
provides that directors shall not be liable to the Company or its shareholders
for damages for any breach of duty as a director, except for liability a
director may have for any act or omission prior to the effectiveness of the
Restated Certificate of Incorporation or if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the director establishes that: (i) the director's acts
or omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law; (ii) the director personally gained in fact a financial profit
or other advantage to which the director was not legally entitled; or (iii) the
director's acts violated NYBCL Section 719 (which imposes liability on
transactions when contrary to NYBCL provisions). This provision also provides
that if the Company may by law be permitted to further eliminate or limit the
personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director shall, at such
time, automatically be further eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
permitted by law.

                                      II-2
As permitted by New York law, the Company maintains certain insurance
covering the Company's obligation to indemnify directors and officers and also
covering director and officers individually, subject to certain limitations, in
instances in which they may not otherwise be indemnified by the Company.

  5       The opinion of counsel contemplated by Item 601(b)(5)(i) of Regulation
          S-K is not required because the shares of Common Stock being
          registered are not original issue shares. In addition, neither an
          opinion of counsel nor an Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
          determination letter is required under Item 601(b)(5)(ii) of
          Regulation S-K because the Registrant has included the undertaking
          contained below in this Item 8.

     Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 1996 (File No. 1-9232).

**   Incorporated by reference to Exhibit 3.2 to the Company's Annual Report on
     Form 10-K for the year ended October 30, 1998 (File No. 1-9232).

     The Registrant has received all required determinations from the IRS that
the Plan, as amended to date, is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal
Revenue Code and hereby undertakes to submit to the IRS in a timely manner any
amendment to the Plan which is required to be submitted and has made or will
make all changes required by the IRS to qualify the Plan.

ITEM 9.       UNDERTAKINGS

     (A) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

         (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

         (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the
registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

     (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

     (B) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act) that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

     (C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
