          1/31/96             26,100

The source of funding for RGI Holdings' acquisition of 7,466,666 shares of
Banyan Common Stock on May 21, 1996 for $0.46875 per share or an aggregate of
$3,500,000 was an intercompany loan made to it by RGI International.  Interest
at a rate of LIBOR plus 1% accrues and is payable quarterly, and all principal
together with any accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable at the term of
the loan.  Such loan is unsecured.  A copy of the promissory note is attached to
this Schedule as Exhibit 2, and the above description is qualified in its
entirety by reference to such Exhibit 2, which is incorporated herein by
reference in its entirety.

ITEM 4.   PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 12, 1996, as
amended and restated as of May 20, 1996, and further amended as of September 17,
1996, by and among RGI Holdings, RGI U.S. Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Holdings ("RGI/US"), and Banyan (the "Merger Agreement"):  (i) on
May 21, 1996 (the "Initial Closing") RGI Holdings purchased from Banyan in a
private placement 7,466,666 shares of Banyan Common Stock at a purchase price of
$.46875 per share, as a result of which RGI Holdings beneficially owns
approximately 15.8% of the total outstanding capital stock of Banyan;  (ii) RGI
Holdings purchased from several institutional lenders for whom Morgens,
Waterfall, Vintiadis & Co., Inc. acted as agent, a loan previously made to
Banyan in the original principal amount of $20,500,000, the terms and conditions
of which were modified by agreement of the parties to cure or waive certain
defaults; and (iii) RGI Holdings purchased from Societe Generale, Southwest
Agency, a loan previously made to Banyan in the original principal amount of
$7,000,000, the terms and conditions of which were modified by agreement of the
parties to cure or waive certain defaults.

Subject to the fulfillment of the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger
Agreement, including stockholder approval of the merger, RGI/US will be merged
with and into Banyan in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware and the Washington Business Corporation Act, the separate existence
of RGI/US will cease, and


                               Page 15 of 22 Pages
<PAGE>


Banyan will be the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation").  In
connection therewith, each of the 1,000 issued and outstanding shares of RGI/US
common stock (all of which is held by RGI Holdings) will be converted into
4,386,986 newly-issued shares of Banyan Common Stock (the "Exchange Ratio").
The Exchange Ratio is subject to certain downward adjustments in the event of an
decline in the value of RGI/US stock in an amount equal to or greater than 10%.
Upon consummation of the Merger, assuming no adjustment to the Exchange Ratio,
RGI Holdings (and the related RGI Entities) will beneficially own approximately
75% of the outstanding common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

A copy of the amendment to the Merger Agreement is attached to this Schedule as
Exhibit 4 and the above description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its
entirety by reference to Exhibit 1 (previously filed) and Exhibit 4, which are
incorporated by reference in their entirety.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement at the Initial Closing, Mr. Kenneth Uptain, the
president and a director of both RGI/US and RGI Holdings, was elected to fill a
vacancy on the Banyan Board of Directors.  The Banyan Board of Directors also
consists of Banyan's two outside directors, Messrs. Wallace Auch and Robert
Ungerlieder.  Mr. Uptain owns 1.21% of the outstanding stock of RGI Antilles and
is a Managing Director of RGI Antilles, a Director of RGI International, and the
President and a Director of RGI Real Estate.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Banyan stockholders will also be asked to vote
on amending Banyan's Certificate of Incorporation to reclassify, combine and
convert each 25 issued and outstanding shares of Banyan Common Stock into one
issued and outstanding share (the "Reverse Split")  and to vote on adding an
additional outside and inside director to the Board.  If stockholders approve
the amendments to the Surviving Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws, the Board of Directors will no longer be classified and all directors
will be elected annually.  Stockholders of Banyan will also vote on certain
amendments to the Surviving Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws, including amending the Surviving Corporation's Bylaws to allow further
amendments by a vote of the holders of a majority of outstanding shares as
opposed to 80%.


ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

          (a)

Based upon the 39,822,304 shares of Banyan Common Stock outstanding as disclosed
on Banyan's Quarterly Report in Form 10-Q for the Quarter ended March 31, 1996:

     RGI Holdings beneficially owns 7,466,666 shares of Banyan Common Stock,
     which constitutes approximately 15.8% of the outstanding shares of Banyan
     Common Stock; and


                               Page 16 of 22 Pages
<PAGE>


     RGI Real Estate, as the owner of 75% of RGI Holdings, may be deemed to
     beneficially own the 7,466,666 shares of the Banyan Common Stock
     beneficially owned by RGI Holdings.  Each of RGI Holdings and RGI Real
     Estate disclaims beneficial ownership of the 160,000 shares owned by RGI
