Item 2. Identity and Background.
This report is filed by Seafield Capital Corporation
("Seafield") (formerly named BMA Corporation). Seafield is a
Missouri corporation; the address of its principal executive
office is 5000 West 95th Street, Suite 260, P.O. Box 7568,
Shawnee Mission, Kansas 66207. Seafield is a holding company
whose principal interest now is its 82% owned subsidiary,
LabOne, Inc. (formerly named Home Office Reference Laboratory,
Inc.), a provider of clinical, substance abuse and insurance
laboratory testing services whose offices are located at 10310
West 84th Terrace, Lenexa, Kansas 66214. Seafield also owns
certain short-term and intermediate-term investment grade
securities.
Set forth in Schedule 1 hereto are the names,
business addresses and principal occupations or employment of
the executive officers and directors of Seafield. Each person
listed on Schedule 1 is a United States citizen.
During the past five years, neither Seafield nor
to its knowledge, any of the persons identified in Schedule 1
has been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding, or (ii) a
party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative
body as a result of which such person was or is subject to a
judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of,
or 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.
Not Applicable.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.
On June 3, 1997, Response filed a Registration Statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") respecting,
among other things, a distribution to Seafield shareholders of
all shares of Response Common Stock owned by Seafield. The
Registration Statement was filed pursuant to certain
registration rights under Section 5.1 of that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 26, 1990 between
Response and Seafield (the "Securities Purchase Agreement").
On July 1, 1997, that Registration Statement was declared
effective by the SEC and Seafield's Board of Directors declared
a dividend to its shareholders of record as of July 11, 1997,
payable July 25, 1997, in the form of all shares of Response
Common Stock owned by Seafield; the distribution ratio will be
approximately 1.24 shares of Response Common Stock for each
share of Seafield common stock outstanding (i.e., 6,489,103).
On July 25, 1997, all shares of Response Common Stock owned by
Seafield were distributed to Seafield shareholders; provided
that a small number of those Response shares were sold by the
Distribution Agent for the distribution (with the proceeds
being remitted to Seafield shareholders) in order to avoid
distributing fractional shares to Seafield shareholders. As a
result, Seafield no longer owns any shares of Response Common
Stock.
Seafield has no plans or proposals which relate to
or would result in (i) the acquisition by any person of
additional securities of Response, or the disposition of
securities of Response; (ii) an extraordinary corporate
transaction involving Response or any of its subsidiaries;
(iii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of
Response or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the
present board of directors or management of Response; (v) any
material change in the present capitalization or dividend
policy of Response; (vi) any other material change in
Response's business or corporate structure; (vii) any change in
Response's charter or bylaws which may impede the acquisition
of control of Response by any person; (viii) causing a class of
Response's securities to be delisted from a national securities
exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-
dealer quotation system of a registered national securities
association; (ix) a class of equity securities of Response
being eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or
(x) any act similar to any of those enumerated above.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a), (b) and (c).
Seafield beneficially owns no shares of Response Common
Stock. All shares previously owned by Seafield had been
acquired more than 60 days before the distribution by Seafield
to its shareholders described above. Said distribution was
effected on July 25, 1997.
Certain of the persons named in Schedule 1 are known
by Seafield to beneficially own shares of Response stock. To
Seafield's knowledge, these shares were acquired by such
persons solely for investment purposes and such persons have
sole power to vote and dispose of such shares. Seafield
disclaims any beneficial ownership in any of such shares. The
persons known to Seafield to beneficially own such shares and
the number of such shares beneficially owned by such persons
(with an indication of the shares which there is a right to
acquire) are as follows:
Name Number of Shares
Joseph T. Clark 213,349
W. Thomas Grant, II 11,400
P. Anthony Jacobs 15,400
James R. Seward 15,400
Of the number of shares shown above, the following numbers
consist of options which the indicated individuals have the
right to exercise either presently or within 60 days: for
Joseph T. Clark, 177,652; for W. Thomas Grant II, 11,000; for
P. Anthony Jacobs, 11,000 and for James R. Seward, 11,000.
(d) and (e) Not Applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understanding or
Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
No longer applicable.
Item 7. Exhibits.
None.
