SCHEDULE 13D Page 4 of 6 Pages
This Amendment No. 5, dated April 27, 1998, amends and supplements the
Statement on Schedule 13D, dated November 30, 1990, as amended and supplemented
by Amendment no. 1, Amendment no. 2, Amendment no. 3 and Amendment no. 4
thereto, filed by Lyonnaise American Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("LAH"), and Suez Lyonnaise des Eaux (formerly Lyonnaise des Eaux), a French
societe anonyme ("Lyonnaise"), with respect to the common stock, no par value,
of United Water Resources Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the "Issuer"). Unless
otherwise defined, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in
the Schedule 13D.
Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as
follows:
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds.
LAH purchased additional shares of Common Stock by reinvesting cash
dividends paid by the Issuer on the Common Stock pursuant to the Issuer's
Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan as follows:
Dollar No. of Shares of Price
Date Amount Reinvested Common Stock Acquired Per Share
June 2, 1997 $2,285,181.16 127,574.6635 $17.9125
September 2, 1997 $2,314,523.33 128,853.0733 $17.9625
December 1, 1997 $2,344,159.54 135,158.3586 $17.3438
March 2, 1998 $2,375,245.96 124,603.0668 $19.0625
On April 22, 1998, LAH converted 328,177 shares of Preference Stock into
273,479 shares of Common Stock at the conversion ratio of 0.83333 shares of
Common Stock for each share of Preference Stock. No funds were paid by LAH to
effect the conversion of such shares of Preference Stock.
Item 5(a) of this Schedule 13D is hereby deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following:
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned by LAH is
10,725,238.41. The Issuer has advised LAH that as of April 22, 1998
there were

36,892,226 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding after giving effect to
the issuance to LAH on April 22, 1998 of 273,479 shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of 328,177 shares of Preference Stock. Consequently, LAH currently
owns 29.1% of the outstanding Common Stock. Lyonnaise, through its 100%
ownership of LAH, may also be deemed to be the beneficial owner of such
10,725,238.41 shares of Common Stock.
Mr. Jacques F. Petry, Vice President of LAH, owns 2,817.41 shares of Common
Stock, of which 119.15 shares of Common Stock are owned directly, 525.98 shares
of Common Stock are owned through the Issuer's 1997 Directors Restricted Stock
Plan and 2,172.28 shares of Common Stock are owned through the Issuer's
Directors Restricted Stock Pension Plan. Mr. Thierry Bourbie, President-Water
Division of Lyonnaise, owns 3,275.01 shares of Common Stock, of which 119.15
shares of Common Stock are owned directly and 3,155.86 shares of Common Stock
are owned through the Issuer's 1997 Directors Restricted Stock Plan. Mr. George
F. Keane, Director of the Issuer and Chairman of Trigen Energy Corporation, an
affiliate of Lyonnaise, owns 4,155.86 shares of Common Stock, of which 1,000
shares of Common Stock are owned directly and 3,155.86 shares of Common Stock
are owned through the Issuer's 1997 Directors Restricted Stock Plan. Mr. Joseph
V. Boyle, Vice President-Finance of LAH, owns 1,284.64 shares of Common Stock,
of which 332.09 shares of Common Stock are owned directly and 952.56 shares of
Common Stock are owned through the Issuer's 401(k) plan, and holds directly
stock options to purchase an aggregate of 5,150 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price per share that is above the current market price for the Common
Stock. Mr. Jean-Michel Brault, Vice President of Lyonnaise, holds directly stock
options to purchase an aggregate of 7,500 shares of Common Stock at an exercise
price per
share that is above the current market price for the Common Stock.
To the knowledge of LAH and Lyonnaise, no other executive officers or
