AMENDMENT NO. 4
TO
SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 4 amends the Schedule 13D, dated February 24, 1995 (as
previously amended) of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America
("Allianz") with respect to the Common Stock, $.01 par value, of Life USA
Holding, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Issuer"), to report additional
purchases of Issuer's Common Stock. This amendment amends only those portions of
the information previously reported that have changed since the prior filing.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The aggregate purchase price of the shares of Issuer's Common Stock (the
"Shares") purchased by Allianz as reported in Item 5(c) of this Schedule 13D was
$4,361,388, which purchases were financed by working capital funds of Allianz.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction
As described in Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D, Allianz previously
purchased shares of Issuer's Common Stock for investment purposes and not for
the purpose of controlling the Issuer. In accordance with the Stock Purchase
Agreement between Issuer and Allianz, Allianz has purchased the additional
Shares. Although, other than previously disclosed in Amendment No. 1 to Schedule
13D under this Item 4, Allianz does not have any current plans or proposals with
respect to the Issuer or its Common Stock, Allianz reserves the right to take
any and all actions, which could include, without limitation, a tender offer for
all of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. Considerations relevant to any
decision may include then current market and economic conditions, the Issuer's
then current or prospective financial performance, the market performance of the
Common Stock and management's plans, if any, with respect to the Issuer.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) As of the close of business on June 30, 1998, Allianz beneficially
owned 4,797,964 shares of Common Stock or approximately 18.5% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock (based on 25,893,100 shares outstanding on March 31,
1998).
(b) Allianz has sole voting power and sole dispositive power as to the
shares of Common Stock described in (a) above.
(c) The following table sets forth the transactions effected by Allianz
since February 13, 1998:
Trade Date Number of Shares Price Per Share
---------- ---------------- ---------------
2/18/98 90,100 16.875
4/1/98 55,000 15.125
4/2/98 35,000 15.125
4/3/98 10,000 15.3125
6/4/98 45,000 14.7639
6/23/98 55,000 12.04
<PAGE>
All of such transactions reflect principle purchases effected on the open
market. Other than the acquisition of Common Stock described above, no
transactions with respect to the Common Stock have been effected since February
13, 1998 by Allianz, Allianz Aktiengesellschaft Holding ("AZ AG"), Allianz of
America, Inc. ("AZOA") or, to the best knowledge of Allianz, by any executive
officer or director of Allianz, AZ AG or AZOA.
(d) No other person is known by Allianz to have the right to receive or the
power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of,
the securities covered by this Schedule 13D.
(e) Not applicable.
