This Amendment No. 2 amends the Statement on Schedule 13G of The Dow
Chemical Company ("Dow") dated December 7, 1992, as amended through the
date hereof, with respect to the Common Stock of Creative Biomolecules,
Inc. (the "Issuer"). This Amendment is filed solely to reflect the fact
that as of June 28, 1995, Dow is no longer the beneficial owner of any
securities of the Issuer.
Items 2, 4 and 5 of Dow's Statement on Schedule 13G with respect to
securities of the Issuer are hereby amended to read as follows:
ITEM 2.
- -------
(a) Name of Person Filing: This Schedule is filed on behalf of The
Dow Chemical Company ("Dow") with respect to its potential deemed indirect
beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Issuer through Dow's beneficial
ownership of a majority of the outstanding common stock of Marion Merrell
Dow Inc. ("MMD"). MMD is the direct beneficial owner of the securities
previously reported in Schedule 13G filings as beneficially owned by Dow,
as to which Dow disclaims beneficial ownership.
(b) Address of principal business office: 2030 Dow Center, Midland,
Michigan 48674.
(c) Citizenship: Delaware.
(d) Title of Class of Securities: Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share.
(e) CUSIP Number: 225270 10 7
ITEM 4. OWNERSHIP.
- ------- ----------
On June 28, 1995, Dow disposed of its ownership interest in MMD and
thus no longer has a beneficial interest in any of the Issuer's Common
Stock.
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 [X].
