               INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT

Item 5.        Other Events

          The registrant  may, at its option, report under this item any events,
with respect  to which information is  not otherwise  called for  by this  form,
that the registrant deems of importance to security holders. On October 4, 1996,
the  registrant  completed  its  acquisition  of Landmark  Graphics  Corporation
(Landmark)  following  the approval  and  adoption of an  agreement  and plan of
merger by Landmark shareholders. The acquisition has been accounted for using
the "pooling of  interests"  method of  accounting  for  business  combinations.
Landmark is not a significant subsidiary within the meaning of such term as used
in  Regulation  S-X under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as  amended.
Nevertheless,  there is  included  in  Exhibit 20 hereto  supplemental  selected
financial  data  based  upon  the  consolidated   financial  statements  of  the
registrant  and Landmark.  Such data has been restated for the dates and periods
indicated  to give  effect to the  acquisition  using the  pooling of  interests
method of accounting for business  combinations.  Such financial  information is
supplemental and does not include all the information and footnotes  required by
generally accepted accounting  principles for complete financial  statements and
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
included in the  registrant's  1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Moreover,  such
information  may not  necessarily  reflect  the  results  of  operations  or the
financial  position of the registrant that would have actually  resulted had the
acquisition  occurred  as of the  date  and  for  the  periods  indicated  or be
indicative of future results of operations of the registrant.

Item 7.        Financial Statements and Exhibits

          List below  the financial statements, pro forma  financial information
and exhibits, if any, filed as part of this report.
