and the Subsidiaries, none of the directors and executive officers of Aegon,
N.V., Aegon, AIM or the Subsidiaries, have (i) been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or (ii) been

<PAGE>
 
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

     All shares of Common Stock were purchased by the Subsidiaries with working
capital of the Subsidiaries.

Item 4.   PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

     The Subsidiaries have entered into a tender agreement, dated as of December
5, 1997 (the "Tender Agreement"), with SKR Management Corp., a New York
corporation ("SKR"), a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K
filed by the Issuer on December 8, 1997 (the "Form 8-K") and incorporated herein
by reference. The Tender Agreement was executed in connection with the execution
of a Memorandum of Understanding, dated as of December 5, 1997, between the
Issuer and SKR (the "Memorandum of Understanding"). The Memorandum of
Understanding, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K, provides
for, among other things and subject to certain conditions, a tender offer by SKR
for all of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock at a price of $7.00 per
share. For additional information with respect to the Tender Agreement, see Item

Common Stock, constituting 26.0% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer
(see pages 2-9 hereof for the number of shares beneficially owned by each
reporting person). This represents 26.0% of the total voting power of the Issuer
Common Stock.

     (c)  There have been no transactions in shares of Issuer Common Stock by
Aegon, N.V., Aegon, AIM or the Subsidiaries, or to the best knowledge of Aegon,
N.V., Aegon, AIM or the Subsidiaries, by any of the executive officers or
directors of Aegon, N.V., Aegon, AIM or the Subsidiaries, during the past 60
days.

     (d)  Not applicable.

     (e)  Not applicable.

Item 6.   CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
          RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

The Tender Agreement

     The Tender Agreement was executed by the Subsidiaries in order to induce
SKR to execute the Memorandum of Understanding and in consideration of the
substantial expenses


                              Page 11 of 25 pages

<PAGE>
 
incurred and to be incurred by SKR in connection therewith. In the Tender
Agreement, each of the Subsidiaries has agreed, subject to the terms and
conditions specified therein, to tender or cause to be tendered to SKR pursuant
to the Tender Offer all of the shares of Issuer Common Stock owned by such
Subsidiary. No consideration was paid in connection with the execution of the
Tender Agreement. None of Aegon, N.V., Aegon or AIM is a party to the Tender
Agreement.

     In addition, the Tender Agreement provides for a "purchase option" (the
"Option"), exercisable by SKR in certain circumstances. Upon receipt of notice
from the Subsidiaries of a "Triggering Event," defined as "(i) the proposal by
any person or group of persons of a Competing Transaction (as defined in the
Memorandum of Understanding) in which the consideration to be received by
holders of Issuer Common Stock is in excess of $7.00 per share in cash and which
is applicable to each share of Issuer Common Stock outstanding (other than any
shares of Issuer Common Stock owned by the person or group of persons proposing
such Competing Transaction or any of their respective affiliates), and (ii) the
withdrawal by the Board of Directors of the Issuer of its recommendation or
proposed recommendation to the shareholders of the Issuer that they tender their
shares in the Tender Offer," SKR has the right, pursuant to the Tender
Agreement, to purchase all shares of Issuer Common Stock owned by the
Subsidiaries at a price determined as described below.

     The purchase price payable by SKR upon exercise of the Option shall be
equal to the price per share payable in the Competing Transaction giving rise to
the Triggering Event; provided, however, in the event the price per share paid
by SKR in the Tender Offer or in such Competing Transaction is increased (i)
after SKR has given notice of its intent to exercise the Option, then SKR shall
pay to the Subsidiaries in cash an additional amount per share for the shares to
be purchased pursuant to the Option equal to the difference between (x) the
highest price per share paid or to be paid by SKR in the Tender Offer or in such
Competing Transaction, as applicable, and (y) the per share purchase price
previously anticipated to be paid by SKR to the Subsidiaries, or (ii) after SKR
has purchased the shares pursuant to the Option, then SKR shall pay to the
Subsidiaries in cash an additional amount per share for the Shares so purchased
equal to the difference between (x) the highest price per share paid by SKR in
the Tender Offer or in any Competing Transaction, as applicable, and (y) the per
share purchase price previously paid by SKR to the Subsidiaries.

Investment Management Agreements

     Each of PFL, Bankers, Life and AUSA have entered into separate agreements
with AIM, which gives AIM, subject to certain conditions in such agreements,
power to direct the investment and reinvestment of the assets in such
subsidiary's account, including the securities of the Issuer, in AIM's sole
discretion. Realty has informally given AIM the same power over its assets.
