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 Steven Crystal. Mr. Crystal's
address is 733 Mountain Avenue, Springfield, N.J. 07081. Mr. Crystal is a
director of the Issuer. Mr. Crystal has not been convicted, during the last
five years, in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
similar misdemeanors), and has not, 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. Mr. Crystal is a
citizen of the United States of America.
Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
This Schedule 13D is being filed to reflect the transfers by
inheritance of shares by Mr. Crystal, and by the Crystal Family Foundation,
a 501(c)(3) organization for which Steven Crystal serves as sole Trustee,
from the estate of Norman Crystal, Steven Crystal's father.
Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
By virtue of the existence of a "group" known as the Sumas Family
Group, the Issuer is a "Controlled Company" within the meaning of NASDAQ
Rule 4350(c)(5) and 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. 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.
Mr. Crystal holds, directly or indirectly, 931,266 shares of the
Class A Common Stock and 440,240 shares of the Class B Common Stock. This
represents 10.24% of the total voting power at a meeting of shareholders.
Beneficial ownership information contained herein assumes conversion of all
outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common
Stock and thus overstates the actual voting power of Mr. Crystal. Were no
conversions to take place, the total voting power would be 7.54%
Mr. Crystal has plans or proposals which would relate to or result in
any of the transactions listed in Item 4 of Schedule l3D except that Mr.
Crystal reserve the right to acquire and dispose of shares of the Issuer
from time to time.
Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
All of the following information assumes conversion of all outstanding
Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock.
Mr. Crystal has beneficial ownership of 1,371,506 shares or 10.24% of
the Class A Common Stock of which 1,371,506 shares or 10.24% is sole
beneficial ownership and 0 shares or 0% constitutes shared beneficial
ownership. Such beneficial ownership is of both voting and dispositive
power.
A total of 12,870 shares have been granted pursuant to the issuer's
restricted stock grant plan, and are presently subject to restrictions on
transfer.
There have been no transactions in securities of the Issuer in the past
60 days by Mr. Crystal.
Item 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
None.
Item 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS
None.
SIGNATURE
After reasonable inquiry and to the best of their knowledge and
belief, each of the undersigned certifies that the information set forth
in this Statement is true, complete and correct.
STEVEN CRYSTAL
