         Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction
                  ----------------------  

         LaSalle  Securities and LaSalle Advisors acquired the securities of the
Issuer as an investment in their  capacities as agents for  particular  clients.
The Reporting  Persons  anticipate  influencing  such control over the Issuer as
they deem necessary,  convenient and proper to protect such investment. In order
to protect  their  investment,  the  Reporting  Persons may deem it necessary or
convenient to acquire, directly, or through the Issuer, additional securities of
the Issuer.

         Except as set forth above, the Reporting  Persons do not have as of the
date hereof any plans or  proposals  which relate to or would result in: (a) the
acquisition  by  any  person  of  additional  securities  of the  Issuer  or the
disposition  of  securities  of  the  Issuer;  (b)  an  extraordinary  corporate
transaction,  such as a merger,  reorganization  or  liquidation  involving  the
Issuer or any of its  subsidiaries;  (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount
of  assets  of the  Issuer  or any of its  subsidiaries;  (d) any  change in the
present board of directors or  management of the Issuer,  including any plans or
proposals  to change the  number or term of  directors  or to fill any  existing
vacancies  on the board of  directors;  (e) any  material  change in the present
capitalization  or dividend policy of the Issuer;  (f) any other material change
in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) any changes in the Issuer's
charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may
impede the  acquisition  of control of the Issuer by any  person;  (h) causing a
class of  securities  of the Issuer 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;  (i) causing a class of
securities  of the Issuer to become  eligible for  termination  of  registration
pursuant to Section  12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action  similar to
any  of  those  enumerated  above.  Notwithstanding  anything  to  the  contrary
contained  herein,  the  Reporting  Persons  reserve  the right to change  their
present intentions with respect to the matters described in this paragraph.

         In reaching any  conclusion  as to their future  course of action,  the
Reporting  Persons will take into  consideration  various factors  regarding the
Issuer,  such as its business and prospects and general economic  conditions and
money and stock market conditions.

         Item 5.  Interest in Securities of Issuer
                  --------------------------------

         According to information received from the Issuer, 23,289,867 shares of
the Common Stock are issued and outstanding (the "Outstanding Shares").

         As a group,  the  Reporting  Persons  have  the sole  power to vote and
dispose of 6,122,449  shares.  For purposes of Rule 13d-3  promulgated under the
Exchange  Act,  the  Reporting   Persons  may  be  deemed  to  beneficially  own
approximately  26.3% of the shares,  calculated  by dividing  (i) the  6,122,449
shares by (ii) the 23,289,867 shares outstanding.
