Statement is filed jointly on behalf of Black Bear Realty, Ltd., an Ohio
limited liability company (the "Fund"), Christopher L. Jarratt of Nashville,

Associates").


Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

     Item 4 is amended and supplemented by the following:

     In connection with the annual meeting of American Industrial Properties
REIT, a Texas equity real estate investment trust ("American Industrial"), to
be held on December 13, 1995, the Fund and Mr. Jarratt hereby announce their
present intention to vote all of their respective shares in favor of (1) the
nominees proposed by Pure World, Inc., (2) the amendments to the American

grant the Purchasers permission to purchase up to 30% of the outstanding shares
of beneficial interest, $0.10 par value per share of American Industrial,
whether American Industrial would nominate Mr. Osborne for election to the
Board of Trust Managers, and employment arrangements between American
Industrial and Charles W. Wolcott, President and Chief Executive Officer of
American Industrial.  No agreements or understandings have been reached with
respect to such transactions or actions.
