been extended until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 3, 1999.

been validly tendered and not withdrawn.

York City time, on Friday, November 19, 1999. The depositary for the offer,
Citibank, N.A., has advised UTC and Sphere that approximately 18.3 million

been tendered and not withdrawn as of 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on
Friday, November 19, 1999.
