                  Pursuant to a special  stock  dividend on the Issuer's  Common
                  Stock consisting of one share of Class A Common Stock for each
                  share of Common Stock,  Countryside acquired 600,000 shares of
                  Class A Common Stock on August 14, 1998.

                  On April 16, 1999, Charles J. Urstadt,  solely in his capacity
                  as the trustee of the  Catherine  Urstadt  Biddle  Irrevocable
                  Trust  (the  "CUB  Trust",  and Mr.  Urstadt,  solely  in such
                  capacity, the "CUB Trustee"),  entered into, for and on behalf
                  of the CUB Trust, a transaction with  Countryside  pursuant to
                  which  the CUB  Trustee  exchanged  300,000  shares of Class A
                  Common Stock held by the CUB Trustee on behalf of, and subject
                  to, the CUB Trust for 300,000  shares of Common  Stock held by
                  Countryside.

                  On the same date, Mr.  Urstadt,  solely in his capacity as the
                  trustee of the Charles D. Urstadt  Irrevocable Trust (the "CDU
                  Trust",  and Mr.  Urstadt,  solely in such capacity,  the "CDU
                  Trustee"), entered into, for and on behalf of the CDU Trust, a
                  transaction  with  Countryside,  pursuant  to  which  the  CDU
                  Trustee  exchanged 300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock held
                  by the CDU Trustee on behalf of, and subject to, the CDU Trust
                  for 300,000  shares of Common Stock held by  Countryside  (the
                  share exchange transaction between the CUB Trustee, for and on
                  behalf  of the  CUB  Trust,  and  Countryside  and  the  share
                  exchange  transaction  between  the  CDU  Trustee,  for and on
                  behalf of the CDU Trust,  and Countryside  are,  collectively,
                  hereinafter referred to as the "Share Exchange Transaction").

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

                  Countryside   acquired  and  currently  intends  to  hold  the
                  Countryside Class A Shares for investment.

                  Pursuant   to  the   terms  of  the   Partnership   Agreement,
                  Countryside is required to make certain  distributions  to the
                  limited  partners and the general  partner of Countryside on a
                  monthly  basis and upon  liquidation  of  Countryside.  In the
                  event that  Countryside  does not have sufficient cash to make
                  the  required   distributions   to  the  limited  partners  of
                  Countryside,  UBP, as the general partner of Countryside, will
                  have the  option to sell all or a portion  of the  Countryside
                  Class A Shares in order to provide Countryside with sufficient
                  cash to make such  distributions.  While  Countryside does not
                  currently  anticipate  selling any of the Countryside  Class A
                  Shares,  it may  elect to do so if  Countryside  does not have
                  sufficient  cash to make  the  required  distributions  to the
                  limited partners of Countryside.  If Countryside determines to
                  sell all or a portion of the  Countryside  Class A Shares,  it
                  may  do so in  the  open  market  or in  privately  negotiated
                  transactions.  In no event,  however,  will UBP be entitled to
                  sell more  Countryside  Class A Shares than are  necessary  to
                  provide   Countryside   with  sufficient  cash  to  make  such
                  distributions  to the limited  partners of Countryside.  Under
                  the terms of the Partnership  Agreement,  the limited partners
                  or  the  general   partner  of  Countryside  may  require  the
                  dissolution of  Countryside on or after the third  anniversary
                  of the date of the Partnership Agreement. Upon any dissolution
                  of  Countryside,   it  is  currently   anticipated   that  any
                  Countryside  Class A Shares then held by Countryside after all
                  required cash  distributions  are made to the limited partners
                  of Countryside will be distributed to UBP. Reference is hereby
                  made  to  the  Partnership   Agreement  for  a  more  complete
                  description  of the terms and  conditions  of the  Partnership
                  Agreement.

                  As noted in Item 2 above,  the  information  set forth  herein
                  respecting  UBP and the persons  named in Schedule I hereto is
                  being provided solely as a result of the fact that UBP, as the
                  sole  general  partner  of the  Partnership,  may be deemed to
                  beneficially  own  the  Countryside  Class  A  Shares  held by
                  Countryside. While the information set forth herein respecting

                  and the  persons  named in Schedule I hereto is believed to be
                  accurate in all material respects, reference is hereby made to
                  the periodic  reports,  proxy statements and other information
                  filed by UBP and the  persons  named in Schedule I hereto with
                  the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  for changes in such
                  information and other  developments  that may occur subsequent
                  to the date of the information contained herein.

                  Except  as  specifically  set  forth in this  Item 4,  none of
                  Countryside,  UBP or, to the best  knowledge of such  parties,
                  any of the persons named in Schedule I hereto has any plans or
                  proposals  which  relate  to or  would  result  in  any of the
                  actions or effects  set forth in items (a) through (j) of Item
                  4 of Schedule  13D,  although  such  persons may develop  such
                  plans or proposals.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         (a)(i)   Countryside  directly owns the 1,200,000  Countryside  Class A
                  Shares. As the sole general partner of Countryside, UBP may be
                  deemed to be the indirect  beneficial  owner of the  1,200,000
                  Countryside Class A Shares. The 1,200,000  Countryside Class A
                  Shares  represent  21.2% of the  5,667,847  shares  of Class A
                  Common Stock of UBP outstanding on the date hereof, based upon
                  information  provided by UBP and calculated in accordance with
                  Rule 13d-3(d)(1) under the Act.

           (ii)   For  information  concerning  the  ownership of Class A Common
                  Stock of UBP by the persons  listed on Schedule I hereto,  see
                  the portions of UBP's Proxy  Statement  dated February 2, 1999
                  attached  hereto  as  Exhibit  3 and  incorporated  herein  by
                  reference.  As noted above,  while the  information  set forth
                  herein  respecting  UBP and the  persons  named in  Schedule I
                  hereto is believed to be  accurate in all  material  respects,
                  reference  is  hereby  made  to the  periodic  reports,  proxy
                  statements and other  information filed by UBP and the persons
                  named in Schedule I hereto with the  Securities  and  Exchange
                  Commission   for  changes  in  such   information   and  other
                  developments  that  may  occur  subsequent  to the date of the
                  information contained herein.

         (b)      Subject to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, UBP, as the
                  sole general partner of Countryside,  has the power to vote or
                  direct  the  voting  and the power to  dispose  or direct  the
                  disposition of the Countryside Class A Shares.

         (c)      On April 16, 1999, Countryside entered into the Share Exchange
                  Transaction described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D.

                  On April 6, 1999,  the CUB Trustee  and the CDU  Trustee  each
                  entered  into,  for and on behalf of the CUB Trust and the CDU
                  Trust, respectively, certain privately negotiated transactions
                  with third  parties  pursuant to which the CUB Trustee and the
                  CDU  Trustee   exchanged  12,000  shares  and  18,000  shares,
                  respectively,  of Class A Common  Stock  held by the CUB Trust
                  and the CDU Trust, respectively,  for 12,000 shares and 18,000
                  shares, respectively, of Common Stock.

                  On April  13,  1999,  the  Board of  Directors  of the  Issuer
                  approved  the sale of 2,000  shares of Class A Common Stock to
                  George H.C.  Lawrence at a purchase price equal to $8.2989 per
                  share in cash.  Such sale was  effected on April 16, 1999 with
                  proceeds   received  by  Mr.   Lawrence  from  UBP's  Deferred
                  Directors' Fees Plan.

(1)  Of these  shares,  50,000 are owned by Urstadt  Property  Company,  Inc., a
     company of which Mr.  Urstadt is the  chairman,  a director and a principal
     stockholder, 900,000 shares are owned by two irrevocable trusts established
     for Mr.  Urstadt's  adult  children  and 57,000  shares are owned by Elinor
     Urstadt,  Mr.  Urstadt's  wife. The figure  excludes 76,690 shares issuable
     upon exercise of options which are not currently exercisable and which will
     not become exercisable within 60 days, but includes 500,421 shares issuable
     upon exercise of options  exercisable within 60 days. See "Compensation and
     Transactions  with  Management and Others" below.  The figure also excludes
     49,160 cash  appreciation  rights,  all of which are exercisable  within 60
     days.

(2)  This figure assumes,  in connection with the determination of the number of
     Common Shares issuable upon exercise of options exercisable within 60 days,
     that Mr.  Urstadt will elect the Common Stock Option (as defined in "Report
     of Compensation Committee on Executive Compensation" below) with respect to
     all of such  options.  See "Report of  Compensation  Committee on Executive
     Compensation"  for  information  with respect to certain  modifications  of
     outstanding  options  granted under the  Company's  Stock Option Plan as of
     August 14, 1998, the date of the Stock Dividend.  If Mr. Urstadt elects the
     Combination  Option  (as  defined  below) or the Class A Stock  Option  (as
     defined  below)  with  respect  to all such  options,  the number of Common
     Shares  issuable upon exercise of options  exercisable  within 60 days, the
     total number of Common Shares  beneficially  owned and the Percent of Class
     would be less.

(3)  Of  these  shares,  900,000  shares  are  owned by two  irrevocable  trusts
     established for Mr. Urstadt's adult children and 43,000 shares are owned by
     Elinor  Urstadt,  Mr.  Urstadt's  wife. The figure  excludes  76,169 shares
     issuable upon exercise of options which are not currently  exercisable  and
     which will not become  exercisable  within 60 days,  but  includes  499,002
     shares  issuable upon exercise of options  exercisable  within 60 days. See
     "Compensation  and  Transactions  with  Management and Others" below.  This
     figure also  excludes  48,826 cash  appreciation  rights,  all of which are
     exercisable within 60 days.

(4)  This figure assumes,  in connection with the determination of the number of
     Class A Common Shares issuable upon exercise of options  exercisable within
     60 days,  that Mr. Urstadt will elect the Class A Stock Option with respect
     to all of such options. See "Report of Compensation  Committee on Executive
     Compensation"  for  information  with respect to certain  modifications  of
     outstanding  options  granted under the  Company's  Stock Option Plan as of
     August 14, 1998, the date of the Stock Dividend.  If Mr. Urstadt elects the
     Combination Option


                               Page 18 of 22 Pages


<PAGE>



     or the Common Stock Option with respect to all such options,  the number of
     Class A Common Shares issuable upon exercise of options  exercisable within
     60 days, the total number of Class A Common Shares  beneficially  owned and
     the Percent of Class would be less.

(5)  Pursuant to the terms of a Limited  Partnership  Agreement  of  Countryside
     Square Limited  Partnership  (the  "Partnership")  dated as of November 22,
     1996 (the  "Partnership  Agreement")  by and among the Company,  as general
     partner,  and the limited partners signatory thereto,  the limited partners
     contributed  to the capital of the  Partnership  the 600,000  Common Shares
     previously  held by such  limited  partners.  The  Partnership  was  issued
     600,000 Class A Common Shares pursuant to the Stock Dividend.

(6)  Based upon  information  contained in Amendment No.#1 to Schedule 13G filed
     with the SEC on February 12, 1997.

Stock Options

     Under the  Company's  Stock  Option Plan  ("Plan"),  418,271  shares of the
Company's  authorized  but  unissued  Common  Shares and  418,271  shares of the
Company's  Class A Common  Shares  have  been  reserved  for  issuance  upon the
exercise  of  options  or stock  appreciation  rights  which have been or may be
granted under the Plan. The persons eligible to participate in the Plan are such
key  employees  of the  Company  as may be  selected  from  time  to time by the
Compensation Committee in its discretion, as well as non-employee Directors. The
Plan  provides  that each  Director  who is not a  full-time  employee or former
full-time employee of the Company will automatically be awarded options covering
1,000 Common Shares and 1,000 Class A Common Shares on April 1 of each year. The
Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee.

     The Compensation  Committee has authorized loans to finance the exercise of
incentive  stock  options  granted  to  executive  officers.  The  loans  have a
five-year  term,  subject to extension  at the  discretion  of the  Compensation
Committee, bear interest at the prime rate plus 1/2% and are secured by a pledge
of the related shares.  The loans become due on termination of employment by the
Company, but are automatically  extended for seven months following  termination
of employment other than for cause,  and for 13 months following  termination of
employment  occurring  after a Change of Control of the Company.  Two such loans
are  outstanding to James R. Moore and Raymond P. Argila,  each in the principal
amount of $133,534.

     The following  table sets forth,  for the executive  officers  named in the
Summary Compensation Table,  information concerning the fiscal year-end value of
unexercised options and SARs.

(1)  These figures  assume that Mr.  Urstadt will elect the  Combination  Option
     with respect to all options  granted to him prior to August 14,  1998,  the
     date of the Stock  Dividend.  See  "Report  of  Compensation  Committee  on
     Executive   Compensation"   for   information   with   respect  to  certain
     modifications  of  outstanding  options  granted under the Company's  Stock
     Option Plan as of August 14, 1998, the date of the Stock  Dividend.  If Mr.
     Urstadt  elects the Common  Stock  Option or the Class A Stock  Option with
     respect to any or all of such options, these figures would be less.

     Urstadt  elects the Common Stock  Option with respect to all such  options,
     the Value of  Unexercised  In-the-Money  Options at  FY-End($)  Exercisable
     would be  $685,747  and the Value of  Unexercised  In-the-Money  options at
     FY-End($) Unexercisable would be $38,889. If Mr. Urstadt elects the Class A
     Stock Option with  respect to all such  options,  the Value of  Unexercised
     In-the-Money  Options at  FY-End($)  Exercisable  would be $629,715 and the
     Value of Unexercised  In-the-Money Options at FY-End($) Unexercisable would
     be $32,906.
