Schedule 13D is amended to reflect updated information regarding the Sumas Family Group as follows:


Item 1.   SECURITY AND ISSUER.

          This Statement related to the Class A, Common Stock, No Par Value, of Village Super Market, Inc. (NASDAQ-VLGEA) (the "Issuer"), which has its principal executive office at 733 Mountain Avenue, Springfield, New Jersey 07081.


Item 2.   IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

          This filing is made on behalf of the Sumas Family Group and the members of the Sumas family identified below (the "Sumas Family Group").  Each member's business address is identical with that of the Issuer and each (other than the Estate of Perry Sumas) is an employee of the Issuer.  No member of the Sumas Family Group has been convicted, during the last five years, in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), and none has, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.  Each is a citizen of, and Perry Sumas was a citizen of, the United States of America.

          The individual members of the Sumas Family Group and the positions they hold with the Issuer, which for each member is his principal employment, are as follows:
 
James Sumas
79
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors
Robert Sumas
71
President, Chief Operating Officer and Director
William Sumas
65
Executive Vice President and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors
John P. Sumas
63
Executive Vice President and Director
Nicholas Sumas
43
Vice President, Secretary and Director
John J. Sumas
42
Vice President — General Counsel and Director
 
Item 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

          Not applicable.


Item 4.   PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

          By virtue of the existence of this "group", the Issuer has been and continues to be a "Controlled Company" within the meaning of NASDAQ Rule 4350(c)(5).  The issuer is therefore exempt from the "independent director" requirements of Rule 4350(c).  Control is exercised pursuant to voting of the Class B Common Stock, No Par Value, owned by members of the Sumas Family Group.  Each Class B share is entitled to 10 votes per share at all meetings of shareholders and is convertible into Class A shares on a share-for-share basis.  The Sumas Family Group members hold, directly or indirectly, 1,775,170 shares of the Class A Common Stock and 4,109,525 shares of the Class B Common Stock.  This represents 72.10% of the total voting power at a meeting of shareholders.

     Beneficial ownership information contained herein assumes, in each case, the conversion of shares of the relevant Class B Common Stock held into shares of Class A Common Stock.  The information thus understates the actual voting power of the Sumas Family Group.

     The Voting Agreement dated March 4, 1987, previously described in Amendment No. 1 to this Schedule 13D, has expired.

 
10

 

     Neither the Sumas Family nor any of its individual members have any plans or proposals which would relate to or result in any of the transactions listed in Item 4 of Schedule l3D, except that the Estate of Perry Sumas has adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (as described in Amendment No. 3 to this Schedule 13D) and members of the group reserve the right to acquire and dispose of shares of the Issuer from time to time.  Each Reporting Person reserves the right to, from time to time, review or reconsider its position and/or change its purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.


Item 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

All of the following information assumes conversion of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock.

The Sumas Family Group has beneficial ownership of 5,884,304 shares or 46.02% of the Class A Common Stock, of which 5,884,304 shares or 46.02% is sole beneficial ownership.

James Sumas has beneficial ownership of 1,393,559 shares or 13.95% of the Class A Common Stock, of which 966,889 shares or 9.68% is sole beneficial ownership and 426,670 shares or 4.27% constitutes shared beneficial ownership.  Such sole and shared beneficial ownership is of both voting and dispositive power.

William Sumas has beneficial ownership of 2,561,065 shares or 25,88% of the Class A Common Stock, of which 555,062 shares or 5.61% is sole voting power, 2,006,003 shares or 20.27% constitutes shared voting power, 555,062 shares of 5.61% constitutes sole dispositive power and 201,888 shares or 2.04% constitutes shared dispositive power.

John P. Sumas has beneficial ownership of 2,547,602 shares or 25.88% of the Class A Common Stock, of which 564,303 shares or 5.73% is sole beneficial ownership (both voting and dispositive power), 1,983,299 shares or 20.15% constitutes shared voting power and 179,184 shares or 1.82% constitutes shared dispositive power.

Nicholas Sumas has beneficial ownership of 904,549 shares or 9.58% of the Class A Common Stock, of which 222,689 shares or 2.36% is sole beneficial ownership and 681,860 shares or 7.22% constitutes shared beneficial ownership.  Such sole and shared beneficial ownership is of both voting and dispositive power.

John J. Sumas has beneficial ownership of 257,275 shares or 2.89% of the Class A Common Stock, all of which is sole beneficial ownership.

There have been no transactions in securities of the Issuer in the past 60 days by the Sumas Family Group members except for transactions reported on Form 4 which filings are incorporated herein by reference.


Item 6.   CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

 
11

 

Except as otherwise described herein or in the Schedule 13D or prior amendments, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
