Item 3.       Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

        Professor Dr. Hartmut Krukemeyer ("Professor Krukemeyer") built a chain
of hospitals under the "Paracelsus" name in Europe. Professor Krukemeyer was
the sole owner of Park and the capital stock of Paracelsus until his death on
May 21, 1994. Pursuant to the Last Wills and Testaments of Professor Krukemeyer
(the "Wills") his sole heir was his son, Dr. Manfred Georg Krukemeyer ("Dr.
Krukemeyer"). Upon Professor Krukemeyer's death, Park and the capital stock of
Paracelsus became part of the estate of Professor Krukemeyer, which was
beneficially owned by Dr. Krukemeyer subject to the powers of any co-executors
appointed in accordance with the Wills and German law. Effective as of December
31, 1995, Park acquired 100% of the capital stock of Paracelsus from Dr.
Krukemeyer.

      Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as
of May 29, 1996, by and among the Issuer, Champion Healthcare Corporation and PC
Merger Sub. Inc. (the "Merger"), Park became the beneficial owner of 29,771,742
shares of the common stock of Paracelsus (the "Paracelsus Shares").

      On August 25, 1997, Dr. Meyer zu Losebeck and Mr. Frommhold (each a
"Co-executor," and together, the "Co-executors") were appointed Co-executors of
Professor Krukemeyer's estate pursuant to the Wills. The appointment was
accepted on August 29 and August 30, 1997, respectively, and became uncontested
at the end of September 1997, when appeals filed against the appointment were
withdrawn. The Co-executors currently share indirect voting power and
investment power over the Paracelsus Shares held by Park with the managing
directors of PKD and Park.
                                  
        On August 30, 1997, the holdings of Professor Krukemeyer's estate were 
reorganized and its entire interest in Park (as well as all the other business
operations comprising the estate of Professor Krukemeyer pursuant to the Wills)
was contributed to PKD. Subject to the deletion of the trade register entries
reflecting Dr. Krukemeyer's holdings prior to the reorganization, the
reorganization was completed on November 7, 1997, when PKD was entered into the
local trade register. As a result of the reorganization, Dr. Krukemeyer has a
99.93% ownership interest in PKD, subject to the powers of the Co-executors;
the remainder is held by a wholly owned subsidiary of PKD.

      As a result of the formation of PKD and the qualification under local law
of the Co-executors, PKD and the Co-executors may be deemed to be beneficial
owners of the Paracelsus Shares together with Park.
