ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
Effective as of May 24, 1990, the Registrant and Security Pacific
National Bank (the "Rights Agent") entered into a Stockholders Rights Agreement
(the "Rights Agreement") which provides that holders of each outstanding share
of the Registrant's Common Stock shall be entitled to receive one Right to
purchase shares of the Registrant's Common Stock (a "Right"). By Application for
Registration dated June 4, 1990 on Form 8-A, the Rights were registered pursuant
to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the appropriate
Form 8-K enclosing the Rights Agreement as an exhibit was also filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Effective as of January 16, 1992, the Registrant and the Rights Agent
amended the Rights Agreement by increasing from $22.50 to $40.00 the Exercise
Price of each Right as set forth in Section 7(c) and wherever such term appears
in the Rights Agreement and in the Exhibits thereto (the "First Amendment").
Effective as of May 24, 1994, the Registrant and the Rights Agent
amended the Rights Agreement to change the term "15% Ownership Date" to "10%
Ownership Date" and to change the term "15% Stockholder" to "10% Stockholder"
wherever such terms appear in the Rights Agreement and in the Exhibits thereto
(the "Second Amendment").
Effective as of September 28, 1995, the Registrant and the Rights Agent
amended the Rights Agreement (i) by increasing from $40.00 to $70.00 the
Exercise Price of each Right as set forth in Section 7(c) and wherever such term
otherwise appears in the Rights Agreement and in the Exhibits thereto; (ii) by
reducing from $.01 to $.001 the Redemption Price as set forth in Section 23(a)
and wherever such term otherwise appears in the Rights Agreement and in the
Exhibits thereto; and (iii) by updating the name of the Rights Agent from
Security Pacific National Bank to Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services, and to
correct the address of the Rights Agent from 701 South Western Avenue, Glendale,
California 91201 to 300 South Grand Avenue, 4th Floor, Los Angeles, California
90071-3113, as set forth in Section 26 and wherever such terms otherwise appear
in the Rights Agreement and in the Exhibits thereto (the "Third Amendment").
Attached hereto as Exhibit 4 is the Third Amendment to Rights
Agreement, dated September 28, 1995.
For each prior amendment to the Rights Agreement, the Registrant filed
the appropriate Form 8-K and Form 8-A/A with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The Company is concurrently amending its Registration Statement on Form
8-A under which these Rights were registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to reflect the changes made by the Third
Amendment.

EXHIBIT 4
Third Amendment
To
Rights Agreement
US FACILITIES CORPORATION
This Third Amendment to Rights Agreement (the "Third Amendment") is
made and entered into as of September 28, 1995, by and between US Facilities
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Chemical Mellon
Shareholder Services (the "Rights Agent") for the purpose of making a third
amendment to that certain Rights Agreement dated as of May 24, 1990 between the
Company and the Rights Agent, as amended (the "Rights Agreement").
1. Authority for Amendment.
(a) This Third Amendment is made and entered into pursuant to Section
27 of the Rights Agreement.
(b) By action taken on September 27, 1995, the Independent Directors of
the Company, consisting of John A. Allison, Jonathan D. DuBois, John F. Kooken,
Bernard H. Ross, Charles L. Schultz and Kenneth C. Tyler, directed the Company
and the Rights Agent to amend the Rights Agreement to change the Exercise Price
of each Right, as set forth in Section 7(c) thereof, from $40.00 to $70.00 and
to change the Redemption Price of each Right, as set forth in Section 23(a)
thereof, from $.01 to $.001, because the Independent Directors deem it to be in
the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to increase the Exercise
Price and decrease the Redemption Price.
(c) Pursuant to the terms of Section 19 of the Rights Agreement
relating to a merger or change of name of the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent is
hereafter designated as Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services, whose address is
300 South Grand Avenue, 4th Floor, Los Angeles, California 90071-3113.

Event or (iii) the Expiration Date, a majority but not less than
three, of the Independent Directors may, at their option, direct
the Company to redeem all, but not less than all, of the then
outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $.001 per Right, as
such redemption price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect
any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring
after the date hereof (the "Redemption Price"), and the
Company shall so redeem the Rights."
(d) A corresponding change from $.01 to $.001 is hereby made as the
Redemption Price of each Right in Exhibits A and B to the Rights Agreement.
(e) Section 26 of the Rights Agreement is hereby changed to read in its
entirety as follows:

Agreement to be given or made by the Rights Agent or by the holder of
