FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
UNION PACIFIC SAYS LAWSUIT IS ENTIRELY WITHOUT MERIT
BETHLEHEM, PA, DECEMBER 7, 1994 -- Union Pacific
Corporation (NYSE: UNP) said that Burlington Northern's
suit filed today challenging the use of a voting trust in
its proposed acquisition of Santa Fe Pacific Corporation
(NYSE: SFX) is entirely without merit.
Drew Lewis, Chairman and CEO of Union Pacific, said,
"The Interstate Commerce Commission staff has approved
our voting trust despite Burlington Northern's previous
unsuccessful efforts to challenge it. In fact, the full
commission ruled that it would not withdraw the staff's
opinion as Burlington Northern had requested."
Mr. Lewis added, "It appears that Burlington
Northern is simply trying to draw attention away from the
real issue of how their proposal to acquire Santa Fe
compares with Union Pacific's proposal. In fact, Santa
Fe repeatedly requested that Union Pacific use a voting
trust to enhance its proposal for Santa Fe shareholders.
We think all parties -- and certainly Santa Fe's
shareholders -- would be better served by focusing on the
sale process."
