                      				   APPENDIX II
			                          REGULATORY



November 19, 1991:  The Commodity Futures Trading Commission filed 
its complaint against Bear Stearns and Stephen Johnson.  Bear Stearns entered 
into a simultaneous settlement without admitting or denying the charges which 
had alleged three counts of violation of the Commodity Exchange Act: (i) 
failure to prepare a written record of orders including the account 
identification for orders placed on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange from the 
Dallas Branch Cattle Desk in the period July 1986 to February 1988 
(Regulation 1.35 (a-l) (2)); (ii) failure to supervise the Dallas Branch 
Office Cattle Desk and the CME Floor (Regulation 166.3); and (iii) violation 
of a July 25, 1986 Cease and Desist involving failure to supervise order
entry process.  Bear Stearns neither admitting or denying the charges, paid 
$250,000 in settlement, and is ordered to cease and desist further violations 
of these three regulations. 

January 16, 1992:  In the Matter of the Distribution of Securities 
Issued by Certain Government Sponsored Enterprises:  We, along with most of 
the other major dealers and banks, have settled an SEC administrative 
proceeding relating to our participation in the primary distributions of 
certain unsecured debt securities issued by GSEs (such as Fannie Mae, 
Freddie Mac, Federal Home Bank) by agreeing to a $100,000 fine, an order 
that we cease and desist from any further recordkeeping violations in 
connection with the distribution of the securities and undertaking to 
develop, implement and maintain policies reasonably designed to assure our 
future compliance with proper recordkeeping rules.
