The names, residence or business addresses, citizenships and

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
On April 25, 1997 LBF acquired in the ordinary course of its business

per share in two privately negotiated transactions: one for 850,000
shares with the Baron Asset Fund; and the other for 80,000 shares
with the Baron Growth and Income Fund. Such acquisitions were made
by LBF in connection with two three- month swap transactions related
to CoreComm stock entered into by such funds with LBF on the same date.
Such swaps were entered into in the ordinary course of LBF's
business.
The acquisition of CoreComm stock was incidental to LBF's
swaps and derivatives business and was not made with an intention to
control the issuer. Depending on the status of the related swap
transactions, market and other conditions or events, LBF may sell
some or all of such CoreComm shares in privately negotiated
transactions, in broker's transactions, both on and off the exchange,
or otherwise. In addition, LBF may, in the ordinary course of its
business, acquire additional shares of CoreComm shares in privately
negotiated transactions, in broker's transactions, both on and off
the exchange, or otherwise.
Lehman Brothers Inc. ("LBI"), a registered broker-dealer affiliate of

fees for its services. LBI purchases, sells and holds CoreComm Common
Stock for itself and its customers in the ordinary course of its
business.

its broker-dealer subsidiary, in the ordinary course of its
business.

shares. Holdings has shared voting power and shared investmen
