ITEM 2.   ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

     Nu-kote International, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Nu-kote
Holding, Inc. ("Nu-kote"), has sold certain of its subsidiaries to Pelikan
Hardcopy Europe Limited ("Pelikan"), a Scottish company.  The subsidiaries
sold include Pelikan Productions AG, Pelikan Scotland Limited, Grief-Werke
GmbH, Pelikan Hardcopy Asia Pacific Limited and Dongguan Pelikan Hardcopy
Limited (collectively, the "Companies").  Under the terms of the agreement,
Pelikan paid $16.5 million in cash at the close of the transaction in
exchange for all of the capital stock or other equity interests of the
Companies. Pelikan was formed by the management of the Companies for the
purpose of making the acquisition.  Nu-kote will continue to sell products
under the Pelikan brand name in North America but not elsewhere.  This
disposition is part of Nu-kote's efforts to dispose of non-essential assets
and focus on the restructuring of its core business in the United States.
The sale and the price paid for the Companies was approved by the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Tennessee.
