          $3.3 million and $3.7 million, on July 30, 1992, and November 27,           
          1992, respectively.                                                         
               On December 1, 1992, petitioners reached an agreement with             
          Kramer and Bremberg which provided that Friedman would acquire              
          all interest in Kramer's holdings in New Manchester.  At the same           
          time, Rosenthal would acquire Bremberg's interest in New                    
          Manchester.  Before December 31, 1992, in accordance with the               
          aforementioned agreement, petitioners became the sole                       
          shareholders of New Manchester, each, respectively, owning 50               
          percent of New Manchester.                                                  
               On December 10, 1992, a proceeding was begun in bankruptcy             
          court to examine allegations by certain creditors that there were           
          "potential fraudulent conveyances and/or preferential transfers             
          with respect to [New Manchester]" prior to the filing of the                
          petition for bankruptcy.  The creditors further alleged that, in            
          connection with a prior leveraged buy-out of New Manchester,                
          petitioners rendered New Manchester insolvent or                            
          undercapitalized.                                                           
               On January 4, 1993, the bankruptcy court amended its order,            
          dated July 29, 1992, and authorized the trustee to pay an                   
          additional $177,000 to NMB to apply against its secured claim.              
          Subsequently, on March 22, 1994, the bankruptcy court authorized            
          the trustee to pay $684,635.75 to an assignee of NMB.
