Reporting Person have been converted or exercised into Common Stock.

Item 7.   Identification and Classification of Members of the

          Not Applicable.

Item 8.   Identification and Classification of Members of the Group.

          Not Applicable. (See Item 9 below.)

Item 9.   Notice of Dissolution of Group.

     On June  20, 1996, Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder, Inc. (the "Reporting
Person"), together with Renaissance Fund LDC, Todd Investments Limited, Stockton
Partners, L.P., Charles Bronfman Family Trust, The Kolber Trust, S. Daniel
Abraham, Continental Casualty Company, Goldman, Sachs & Co., BEA Associates and
PEC Israel Economic Corporation (collectively, the "Other Investors"), acquired
from the Issuer in a private placement certain securities that are convertible
into, or exercisable for, the Issuer's common stock, par value $.01 per share
("Common Stock").  Accordingly, the Reporting Person and the Other Investors may
be deemed to have acted in concert for the purpose of acquiring such securities
and, therefore, to have constituted a "group" for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)
under the Act.

     The Reporting Person has no understanding or agreement with any of the
Other Investors or with any other person to act in concert for the purposes
of holding, voting, or disposing of the Common Stock or any equity
securities of the Issuer.  Accordingly, as of the date hereof, the Reporting
Person is not a member of a "group" for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b) under the
Act with respect to the Common Stock.  All further filings with respect to 
transactions in the Common Stock will be filed, if required, by members of
the group, in their individual capacity.

By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the
securities referred to above were acquired in the ordinary course of business
