The reporting person is an employee stock ownership plan and trust under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") with
individual accounts for the accrued benefits of participating employees and
their beneficiaries. The reporting person is administered by an ESOP
Committee ("ESOP Committee") and its assets are held in trust ("ESOP Trust")
by a trustee ("Plan Trustee"). The number of shares listed as beneficially
owned represents the entire number of shares of Common Stock held in the
ESOP Trust by the Plan Trustee, as of December 31, 1998. In general,
participating employees and their beneficiaries have the power and authority
to direct the voting of shares of Common Stock allocated to their individual
accounts. Such allocated shares are, therefore, not included as shares over
which the reporting person has sole or shared voting power. The reporting
person, through the Plan Trustee, has shared voting power over unallocated
Common Stock. Any unallocated Common Stock is generally required to be
voted by the Plan Trustee in the same proportion as Common Stock which has
been allocated to Participants is directed to be voted. The reporting
person, through the Plan Trustee has shared dispositive power over all
unallocated Common Stock held by the reporting person. The reporting
person, acting through the Plan Trustee shares dispositive power over
allocated Common Stock with participating employees and their beneficiaries,
who have the right to determine whether Common Stock allocated to their
respective accounts will be tendered in response to a tender offer but
otherwise have no dispositive power. Any unallocated Common Stock is
generally required to be tendered by the Plan Trustee in the same proportion
as Common Stock which has been allocated to Participants is directed to be
tendered. In limited circumstances, ERISA may confer upon the Plan Trustee
the power and duty to control the voting and tendering of Common Stock
allocated to the accounts of participating employees and beneficiaries who
fail to exercise their voting and/or tender rights. The reporting person
disclaims voting power with respect to such allocated Common Stock. As of
December 31, 1998, 27,111 of such shares of Common Stock had been allocated
accounts of participants, and 189,779 of such shares were held, unallocated,
for allocation in future years.
Item 5
Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class: If this statement is being
filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has
ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of
securities, check the following o.
Item 6
Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person:
Dividends declared on Common Stock held by the Plan which have been
allocated to the account of a Participant are allocated to the account of
such Participant. Such dividends may be held and invested in the same
manner as funds generally held or invested by the Plan which are not
invested in Common Stock or distributed to Participants in accordance with
and at such time as provided in the Plan Document. Participants may
receive, or direct the receipt of, proceeds of the sale of Common Stock held
by the Plan and allocated to their accounts to the extent they have become
vested in such Common Stock and at such times as provided in the Plan
Document. No Participant has the right to receive or the power to direct
the receipt of dividends on, or the proceeds of the sale of, more than 5% of
the Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof.
