Item 1. Security and Issuer
-------------------
The class of equity securities to which this statement relates is the
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share ("Securities"), of United States Filter
Corporation (the "Issuer"), a Delaware corporation with principal executive
offices located at 73-710 Fred Waring Drive, Suite 222, Palm Desert, California,
92260.
Item 2. Identity and Background
-----------------------
This statement is being filed by Eastern Associated Securities Corp.
("EASC"), a Massachusetts corporation, and Eastern Enterprises ("Eastern"), a
Massachusetts business trust. EASC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of, and is
controlled by, Eastern. Eastern is a holding company with subsidiaries engaged
in the businesses of natural gas distribution and marine transportation. EASC is
a securities holding corporation. The principal offices of Eastern and EASC are
located at 9 Riverside Road, Weston, Massachusetts, 02193. During the last five
years, neither Eastern nor EASC, nor any of their respective trustees, directors
or executive officers, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding
traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or a party to a civil proceeding of
a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which
he, she or it was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal
or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Certain information with respect to the trustees and executive officers of
Eastern and the directors and executive officers of EASC is set forth on
Schedule I hereto.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
-------------------------------------------------
2,027,395 shares of the Securities beneficially owned by the filing
persons were acquired on December 1, 1993, pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement by and among the Issuer, Eastern and Water Products Group
Incorporated, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eastern ("WPGI"), dated August 30,
1993 (the "Purchase Agreement").
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on December 1, 1993, the Issuer
issued 2,033,599 shares of the Securities, registered in the name of EASC, and
paid to Eastern and WPGI $100,000 in cash, in consideration for the transfer by
Eastern and WPGI to the Issuer of all the outstanding shares of capital stock of
Ionpure Technologies Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation, and IP Holding
Company, a Delaware corporation (together "Ionpure"), which corporations had
been wholly-owned subsidiaries of Eastern and WPGI for a period of approximately
four years prior to such transaction. The Purchase Agreement provided that the
closing of such transaction was subject to various conditions, including
approval of the issuance of the Securities to EASC by the Issuer's stockholders,
which approval occurred at the Issuer's Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on
December 1, 1993.
Page 4 of 14
<PAGE>
The Purchase Agreement provided for an adjustment in the number of
Securities issued to Eastern and EASC thereunder, based upon the stockholders'
equity of Ionpure as of October 1, 1993. Pursuant to such adjustment, Eastern
and EASC returned 6,204 shares of the Securities to the Issuer on January 24,
1994, reducing the total number of the Securities beneficially owned by them at
that time to 2,027,395 shares.
On December 5, 1994, the Issuer paid in the form of a stock dividend a
3-for-2 split of the Issuer's Securities (the "Stock Split"). Pursuant to the
Stock Split, Eastern and EASC received on December 5, 1994, 1,013,697 additional
shares of the Securities, increasing the total number of Securities beneficially
owned by them as a result of the Ionpure transaction to 3,041,092 shares.
In addition, Eastern's representative on the Issuer's Board of
Directors (presently Mr. Ives) has been granted options under the Issuer's 1991
Directors Stock Option Plan (see Items 5 and 6 of this statement) to purchase a
total of 26,000 post-Stock Split shares of the Securities, increasing the total
number of Securities beneficially owned by Eastern and EASC to 3,067,092 shares.
On December 7, 1993, J. Atwood Ives, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Eastern and President of EASC, purchased in an open market
transaction for his own account and with his own funds 1,000 shares of the
Securities (increased to 1,500 shares as a result of the Stock Split), for a
price of $23.00 per pre-split share.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
-----------------------
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Eastern and EASC acquired
Securities thereunder as consideration for the transfer to the Issuer of all the
outstanding capital stock of Ionpure in a transaction not involving a public
offering and exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof.
Eastern and EASC planned to hold such Securities, and the additional Securities
received in the Stock Split, for their own account for investment.
Pursuant to the terms of a Transfer, Registration and Other Rights
Agreement between EASC and the Issuer dated December 1, 1993 (the "Stockholder
Agreement"), which was entered into in connection with the Purchase Agreement,
the Issuer filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Number
33-76042, effective April 29, 1994, with a prospectus supplement dated November
28, 1994) (the "Shelf Registration Statement"), registering under the Securities
Act of 1933 the Securities beneficially owned by Eastern and EASC. The Issuer
has filed two post effective amendments to the Shelf Registration Statement,
Post-Effective Amendment No.1, filed October 10, 1995, and Post-Effective
Amendment No. 2, filed November 2, 1995.
On November 1, 1995, Eastern and EASC announced that they had advised
United States Filter Corporation of their intent to sell, subject to
satisfactory price and market conditions, the U.S. Filter Securities
beneficially owned by them (3,041,092 shares of common stock) in a public
offering. These Securities are the subject of the Shelf Registration Statement,
as amended. The Securities constitute all of the shares of the Securities
beneficially owned by Eastern and EASC, other than 26,000 shares subject to
options granted to Eastern's representative on the Issuer's Board of Directors
pursuant to the terms of the Issuer's 1991 Directors Stock Option Plan.
Page 5 of 14
<PAGE>
The Securities beneficially owned by Eastern and EASC are subject to
the Stockholder Agreement. The Stockholder Agreement provides for:
(1) transfer restrictions on the Securities, any shares of any other class of
capital stock of the Issuer acquired pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement,
and shares acquired upon conversion of or exchange for any such shares
(collectively, the "Shares"), and restrictive legends on the certificates
representing the Shares, intended to ensure compliance with the Securities
Act in connection with any transfer thereof;
(2) registration rights under the Securities Act with respect to the Securities
and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Shares which are
not Common Stock (together, the "Registrable Securities"), including (i) the
current Shelf Registration Statement, which (subject to the termination
provisions of the Stockholder Agreement described below) is to be kept
effective for so long as Registrable Securities are held by Eastern, EASC
and their affiliates which are not natural persons (provided that they
collectively hold at least 375,000 shares of the Securities issued under the
Purchase Agreement or acquired pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement)
(together, the "Purchasers") or any transferees of at least 1,500,000 Shares
(the Purchasers and such transferees being collectively referred to herein
as the "Holders"); (ii) the right of the Holders to up to three demand
registrations with respect to the Registrable Securities, if the Shelf
Registration Statement is not kept effective as required by the Stockholder
Agreement; and (iii) piggyback registration rights for the Holders in the
event that the Issuer registers any Common Stock for its own account or the
account of any other security holder, other than registrations relating
solely to employee benefit plans or a transaction subject to Rule 145 under
the Securities Act;
(3) the agreement of the Holders that, upon receipt of a notice from the Issuer
that the prospectus relating to any such shelf registration includes an
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading in light of the circumstances under which the prospectus is
used, they will refrain from selling Registrable Securities under the Shelf
Registration Statement, as amended, until (i) subsequently notified by the
Issuer that such registration is current, or (ii) receipt of a favorable
opinion of counsel that the Holders may sell their securities in compliance
with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act without disclosure of the
non-public information;
(4) the agreement of the Holders that, upon request of the underwriters managing
an underwritten offering of the Issuer's securities, they will not sell or
dispose of any Registrable Securities, other than those included in such
registration, except in a private sale or transfer, for a period of up to
180 days;
(5) the agreement of the Issuer to cooperate with Eastern in making necessary
securities filings and taking such other actions as shall be necessary or
appropriate in connection with any distribution of Registrable Securities by
Eastern or its affiliates to Eastern's shareholders, and to maintain the
effectiveness of any registration statement in connection therewith;
Page 6 of 14
<PAGE>
(6) the right of the Purchasers to purchase additional shares of voting capital
stock of the Issuer, or rights to acquire such voting capital stock
("Offered Securities"), in the event that the Issuer proposes to sell or
issue any Offered Securities, at the same price and upon the same terms as
those of the proposed sale, in the following amounts:
(i) other than under the circumstances referred to in clause
(6)(ii) below, in such amount as will enable each of them to retain
its percentage share of the Issuer's voting power, assuming
conversion of all convertible Offered Securities and/or exercise of
all Offered Securities that are options or warrants (provided that
such right to purchase shall not be applicable with respect to
Offered Securities issuable in the ordinary course under any
employee or director stock benefit plan or in connection with a
merger or other acquisition); or
(ii) if the proposed sale or issue of Offered Securities is at a
price which is less than the lower of 15% below the then current
market price or prevailing customary and reasonable price for such
Offered Securities or for substantially equivalent securities, in
such amount as the Purchasers shall specify (subject to similar
rights granted by the Issuer to the holders of its Series A Voting
Cumulative Preferred Stock);
(7) the agreement of the Purchasers that, for the period ending on the earlier
of December 1, 1999 or six months after any breach by the Issuer of any of
its obligations with respect to Eastern's representation on the Issuer's
Board of Directors described in clause (11) below (the "Standstill Period"),
unless a majority of the Continuing Directors (as defined in clause (11)
below) otherwise consent, the Purchasers will not acquire any voting
securities of the Issuer unless, immediately after the acquisition, their
aggregate percentage share of the Issuer's voting power, assuming conversion
of all shares of capital stock convertible into Common Stock, would be less
than or equal to 22.2% of such voting power (i.e., the Purchasers' aggregate
percentage share of such voting power on December 1, 1993), minus the
percentage share, if any, transferred to transferees other than the
Purchasers; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchasers may
acquire voting securities of the Issuer without regard to amount (i)
pursuant to the purchase rights described in the preceding clause (6) or
(ii) if any person or group, other than the Issuer or any of its affiliates
or employee benefit plans or the Purchasers, makes (x) a tender or exchange
offer or other bona fide offer to acquire voting securities of the Issuer
which would result in such person or group beneficially owning 20% or more
of the voting power of the Issuer, or (y) a formal proposal or offer for a
merger, consolidation or other business combination directly or indirectly
involving a change of control of the Issuer, or to acquire directly or
indirectly all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer (a "Business
Combination Proposal") which Business Combination Proposal is either (A) not
withdrawn or terminated or rejected by the Board of Directors of the Issuer
within 30 days after such Business Combination Proposal is made or (B)
accepted by the Board of Directors of the Issuer (such prohibition with
respect to acquisition of voting securities would again become applicable
upon withdrawal, termination or rejection of such an offer or proposal,
except to the extent a Purchaser is legally obligated to complete an
acquisition of voting securities);
Page 7 of 14
<PAGE>
(8) the agreement of the Purchasers that, during the Standstill Period, they
will take any required action to vote all Shares owned by them (i) for the
Board of Directors' nominees for election to the Board of Directors of the
Issuer (provided that the Purchasers may in any event vote for their
designees to such Board) and (ii) unless a majority of the Continuing
Directors (as defined in clause (11) below) otherwise consent, on all other
matters in the same proportion as the votes cast by other holders of voting
securities, other than those that relate to (x) any merger, consolidation,
or other business combination involving the Issuer, any sale, lease,
transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the
Issuer, any recapitalization or similar transaction involving the Issuer or
any dissolution or complete or partial liquidation of the Issuer or (y) the
approval of any amendment to the Issuer's Certificate of Incorporation or
By-Laws requiring stockholder approval;
(9) the agreement of the Purchasers that, during the Standstill Period, they
will not (i) solicit proxies or become a participant in a solicitation in
opposition to a recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, (ii)
join a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group or
otherwise act in concert with any other person for the purpose of acquiring,
holding, voting or disposing of voting securities of the Issuer, or (iii)
initiate, propose or otherwise solicit stockholders for the approval of one
or more stockholder proposals;
(10)the agreement of the Holders not to engage in a public distribution of the
Registrable Securities except pursuant to a distribution to Eastern's
stockholders, or a public offering in which the Holders shall use their best
efforts to ensure a broad distribution of the Registrable Securities; and
that, without the consent of a majority of the Continuing Directors (as
defined in clause (11) below), they will not transfer any voting securities
of the Issuer in one or more private offerings to any person or group which
would immediately thereafter, to the knowledge of any of the Purchasers
after reasonable inquiry, own or have the right to acquire more than 5% of
the voting power of the Issuer, other than a transfer to a subsidiary or
affiliate of any such Purchaser; and
(11)the agreement of Issuer (i) that, so long as the Purchasers own at least 5%
of the voting power of the Issuer, the Board of Directors of the Issuer will
be required from time to time to nominate for election to such Board, and
the Issuer will use its best efforts to cause to be elected, Eastern's chief
executive officer or chief operating officer, or (subject to the consent,
which will not be unreasonably withheld, of a majority of directors not
affiliated with Eastern who became members of the Board prior to December 1,
1993, and any successor of such a director who is recommended by a majority
of such directors ("Continuing Directors")) another person designated by
Eastern; (ii) that so long as Eastern and its affiliates own at least 10% of
the voting power of the Issuer, Eastern will have the right to designate,
and the Issuer will use its best efforts to cause to be elected, a second
member of the Issuer's Board, subject to Continuing Director consent which
will not be unreasonably withheld; (iii) that Eastern shall have the right
to specify the class or classes in which its designee(s) will serve, with
such designees to be distributed among classes as evenly as possible, with
any extra person to be included in the class that will result in the longest
possible term; (iv) that one of Eastern's designees will serve on the Audit
Committee and, subject to Continuing Director consent, other Board
Committees (not including the Nominating Committee); and (v) that if at any
Page 8 of 14
<PAGE>
time no Eastern designee is serving on the Issuer's Board or Audit
Committee, as the case may be, Eastern will be entitled to notice of and to
have a representative attend all Board or Audit Committee meetings, as the
case may be, and to receive all information provided to directors or Audit
Committee members, subject to execution by such representative of any
confidentiality agreement reasonably requested by the Issuer.
The Stockholder Agreement will terminate at such time as the Holders
hold less than 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer,
except as to the provisions regarding registration rights, which will remain in
force so long as the Holders hold 300,000 or more Shares in the aggregate,
subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar
recapitalizations.
The Securities beneficially owned by Eastern and EASC have been listed
by the Issuer for trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Messrs. Richard J. Heckmann,
Michael J. Reardon and Tim L. Traff, each of them being a director, executive
officer and stockholder of the Issuer, and Andrew D. Seidel, an executive
officer and stockholder of the Issuer, entered into an agreement with the Issuer
and Eastern whereby each agreed, during such time as he is employed by the
Issuer, to cause all of the shares of capital stock of the Issuer now or
hereafter beneficially owned by him or over which he now or hereafter has voting
control to be voted in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement and the election of J. Atwood Ives to the Issuer's Board of Directors,
and in favor of all of the Purchaser's designees to the Issuer's Board of
Directors pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement. Such agreement terminates upon
termination of the Stockholder Agreement (other than the portions thereof
pertaining to registration rights). In addition, James E. Clark, Arthur B.
Laffer, Alfred E. Osborne, Jr. and C. Howard Wilkins, Jr., each of them being a
director and stockholder of the Issuer, and Verne Winchell and Cliff Traff,
being stockholders of the Issuer, entered into an agreement with the Issuer and
Eastern whereby each agreed to cause all of the shares of capital stock of the
Issuer now or hereafter beneficially owned by him or over which he now or
hereafter has voting control to be voted in favor of the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the election of J. Atwood Ives to the
Issuer's Board of Directors. All such agreements are hereinafter referred to
collectively as the "Voting Agreements".
Pursuant to Eastern's rights under the Stockholder Agreement, as
described above, J. Atwood Ives, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
Eastern, was elected to the Issuer's Board of Directors at the Issuer's Annual
Meeting of Stockholders held on December 1, 1993, for a term expiring at the
Issuer's 1996 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and was appointed to the Issuer's
Audit Committee at the meeting of the Issuer's Board of Directors held on
December 1, 1993. Eastern has not yet designated a second member of the Issuer's
Board of Directors or requested that its Board designee be appointed to the
Issuer's Compensation Committee or other committees (not including the
Nominating Committee), which Eastern is entitled to do under the provisions of
the Stockholder Agreement. Because of Eastern's representation on the Issuer's
Board of Directors and committees of such Board, it and such representative(s)
Page 9 of 14
<PAGE>
are expected to exercise their judgment, take positions and seek to influence
decisions with respect to all matters coming before the Board and such
committees, which may include one or more of those matters specified in clauses
(a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, it is intended that such
representative(s) will not participate in decisions of such Board or committees
specifically concerning Eastern, any transactions between the Issuer and
Eastern, or any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by Eastern.
The 1,000 shares (1,500 post-Stock Split shares) of the Securities
purchased by Mr. Ives on December 7, 1993 were acquired by him for his own
account for investment. Options for 26,000 shares of the Securities have been
granted to him under the Issuer's 1991 Directors Stock Option Plan (see Item 6
of this Statement).
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
------------------------------------
The aggregate number of shares of the Securities beneficially owned by
Eastern and EASC is 3,067,092 shares, representing 12.0% of the 25,509,909
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, based on the number of
outstanding shares reported in the Issuer's Post Effective Amendment No. 2 to
the Shelf Registration Statement (filed November 2, 1995). All such shares
beneficially owned by Eastern and EASC (other than the 26,000 option shares
described in Item 6 of this statement) are held in the name of EASC, which has
sole voting and investment power with respect to all such shares. Eastern is
deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of such Securities held by EASC.
Of the Securities beneficially owned by EASC and Eastern, 2,027,395
shares were acquired by them on December 1, 1993 pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, under which Eastern and WPGI transferred to the Issuer all of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of Ionpure in exchange for such Securities
and $100,000 in cash, 1,013,697 shares were acquired pursuant to the Stock
Split, and 26,000 are represented by stock options. (see Item 6 of this
Statement).
The aggregate number of shares of the Securities beneficially owned by
J. Atwood Ives is 27,500 shares, representing 0.11% of the 25,509,909
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Of such shares, 1,000 shares
were purchased by him personally on December 7, 1993 in an open market
transaction, for a price of $23.00 per share (such shares were increased to
1,500 as a result of the Stock Split), and 26,000 shares are subject to
exercisable options granted to him as Eastern's representative under the
Issuer's 1991 Directors Stock Option Plan (see Item 6 of this Statement). No
other trustee, director or executive officer of Eastern or EASC beneficially
owns any Securities.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With
-------------------------------------------------------------
Respect to Securities of the Issuer
-----------------------------------
Rights and obligations of Eastern, EASC and the Issuer with respect to
securities of the Issuer under the Stockholder Agreement, Purchase Agreement
and Voting Agreements are described in Item 4 of this Statement on Schedule 13D.
Page 10 of 14
<PAGE>
The Issuer has adopted a 1991 Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"),
under which each nonemployee director of the Issuer is granted an option to
purchase 8,000 shares of the Securities on the first business day of April in
each calendar year in which he or she serves on the Issuer's Board of Directors
and upon his or her initial election to the Board, provided that the initial
option granted to a new director elected to the Board after September 30th of a
calendar year shall be for 4,000 shares of the Securities. Such options have a
term of four years, are exercisable in full immediately and provide for an
exercise price equal to the greater of (i) $2.00 less than the fair market value
of the Securities on the date of grant (currently determined by the mean of the
high and low prices of the Securities on the New York Stock Exchange) or (ii)
60% of such fair market value. Eastern's representative on the Issuer's Board of
Directors, was granted an initial option under the Plan for 4,000 shares on
December 1, 1993, with an exercise price of $23.00 per share; an option for
8,000 shares on April 1, 1994 with an exercise price of $18.94 per share; and an
option for 8,000 shares on April 1, 1995 with an exercise price of $13.5625 per
share. As a result of Stock Split, the options granted on December 1, 1993 and
April 1, 1994 were adjusted to increase the number of shares subject thereto to
6,000 shares and 12,000 shares, respectively, and to reduce the exercise prices
thereof to $15.3334 and $12.6266 per share, respectively. Accordingly, the total
number of shares now subject to such options granted is 26,000. Any net monetary
benefit realized with respect to any such option and any future options granted
to Eastern's representative under the Plan will be paid by such representative
to Eastern.
