               The Statement on Schedule 13D of the persons named on the

          cover page hereof filed on October 3, 1994, as amended, is hereby

          amended and supplemented as follows:



          Item 2.  Identity and Background.
                   -----------------------

                    At a special meeting of shareholders of Borden, Inc.

          ("Borden") held on March 14, 1995, the shareholders of Borden

          approved the merger of Borden Acquisition Corp. (the "Purchaser")

          with and into Borden.  The certificate of merger was filed with

          the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey on March 14,

          1995, and the merger became effective upon such filing (the

          "Merger").



          Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.  
                   ------------------------------------

                    As a result of the Merger, no shares of common stock,

          par value $.625 per share (the "Borden Common Stock"), of Borden

          remain outstanding.  Each share of Borden Common Stock owned by

          Borden or by any subsidiary of Borden or by Whitehall Associates,

          L.P. ("Whitehall Associates"), KKR Partners II, L.P., the

          Purchaser or any other subsidiary of Whitehall Associates was

          cancelled and retired and ceases to exist.  Each issued and

          outstanding share of Borden Common Stock (other than those

          cancelled as described in the preceding sentence) was converted

          into the right to receive 2.29146 fully paid and non-assessable

          shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of RJR Nabisco

          Holdings Corp.  Each share of common stock, par value $.01 per

          share, of the Purchaser issued and outstanding immediately prior

          to the effective time of the Merger was converted into a number

          of shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the

          surviving corporation in the Merger equal to one one-thousandth

          of the total number of outstanding shares of Borden Common Stock

          immediately prior to the Merger, which is all of the issued and

          outstanding capital stock of the surviving corporation.
