owner of the shares of SNC Common Stock and Circle.com Common Stock (the
"Shares") reflected in this Schedule 13D in connection with its receipt of

ITEM 4.   Purpose of Transaction

          On August 18, 2000, the Reporting Person and the Significant Company
Stockholders entered into the Voting Agreement in connection with the Amended
and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 3, 2000 and
effective February 20, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement"), among the Reporting
Person, HAS Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Subsidiary"), and
the Company, whereby the Reporting Person agreed to acquire all of the issued
and outstanding shares of SNC Common Stock through the merger of Merger
Subsidiary into the Company (the "Merger"). Upon completion of the Merger, the
separate existence of Merger Subsidiary will cease, and the Company will
continue as the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation"). The
certificate of incorporation of the Company will be the certificate of
incorporation of the Surviving Company and the bylaws of Merger Subsidiary in
effect at the time the Merger is completed will be the bylaws of the Surviving
Company.  In addition, until successors are duly elected or appointed and
qualified, the directors and officers of Merger Subsidiary at the time the
Merger is completed will be the directors and officers of the Surviving
Corporation. The consideration to be paid to holders of SNC Common Stock in the
Merger will consist of American Depositary Shares of the Reporting Person,
having an aggregate value of approximately $2.1 billion.   The American
Depositary Shares of the Reporting Person will be quoted on the Nasdaq National
Market System under the symbol "HADV" at the time the Merger is completed.
Following the Merger, the SNC Common Stock will no longer be listed on the New
York Stock Exchange.  The Circle.com Common Stock will continue to be quoted on
the Nasdaq National Market after the Merger.

          Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, each Significant Company Stockholder
agreed to vote or consent, or cause to be voted or consented, in person or by
proxy, all shares of SNC Common Stock and Circle.com Common Stock beneficially
owned by such Significant Company Stockholder or as to which such Significant
Company Stockholder had, directly or indirectly, the right to vote or direct the
voting, in favor of the proposed Merger and adoption of the Merger Agreement.
In furtherance of such agreement, each Significant Company Stockholder granted
to and appointed the Reporting Person and each of Jacques Herail and Bob
Schmetterer, in their respective capacities as officers of the Reporting Person,
and any individual who thereafter succeeded to any such officer of the Reporting
Person, and any other designee of Reporting Person, each of them individually,
its irrevocable proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution) to
vote the SNC Common Stock and Circle.com Common Stock beneficially owned by such
Significant Company Stockholder in favor of the Merger and adoption of the
Merger Agreement.

          In addition, each Significant Company Stockholder agreed not to (i)
effect a "Disposition" (as defined in the Voting Agreement, attached hereto as
Exhibit 1) of SNC Common Stock and Circle.com Common Stock, (ii) grant any
proxies or powers of attorney with respect to SNC Common Stock and Circle.com
Common Stock, (iii) deposit any SNC Common Stock and Circle.com Common Stock
into a voting trust, (iv) enter into a voting agreement with respect to SNC
Common Stock and Circle.com Common Stock, or (v) take any action that would make
any representation or warranty of such Significant Company Stockholder in the
Voting Agreement untrue or incorrect, or have the effect of preventing or
disabling such Significant Company Stockholder from performing such Significant
Company Stockholder's obligations under the Voting Agreement or the Company from
performing its obligations under the Merger Agreement.

          The foregoing descriptions of the Voting Agreement and the Merger
Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by
reference to such agreements,

<PAGE>

which are attached hereto as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively, and which are
incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

          Except as set forth above, the Reporting Person has no present plans
or intentions which would result in or relate to any of the transactions
described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

ITEM 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Company Stockholders have the power to vote, direct the voting of, dispose of or
