ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
This statement relates to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the
'Company Common Stock'), of Holnam Inc. (the 'Company'), the principal executive
offices of which are located at 6211 North Ann Arbor Road, Dundee, Michigan
48131.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
This statement is filed by Thomas Schmidheiny ('Schmidheiny'), 'Holderbank'
Financiere Glaris Ltd., a Swiss corporation ('Holderbank'), Holdernam Inc., a
Delaware corporation ('Holdernam'), and Holcem Inc., a Delaware corporation
('Holcem'). Through various Swiss entities, legally or beneficially, directly or
indirectly, Schmidheiny holds approximately 48% of Holderbank's voting stock.
Schmidheiny's address is Zuercherstrasse 170, CH-8645 Jona, Switzerland.
Holderbank's principal offices are located at Insel 14, CH-8750 Glaris,
Switzerland. Holdernam is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holderbank with its
principal offices at 6211 North Ann Arbor Road, Dundee, Michigan 48131
(telephone: (313) 529-2411). Holcem is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdernam
with its principal offices located at 6211 North Ann Arbor Road, Dundee,
Michigan 48131.
Holderbank, through its subsidiaries and affiliates, ranks as one of the
largest cement manufacturers and suppliers in the world with a presence in 30
countries.
Neither Schmidheiny, Holderbank, Holdernam nor Holcem has during the last
five years been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been a party to a civil
proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction that
resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, U.S. federal or state securities
laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Listed on the attached Annex A are the only directors and executive
officers of Holderbank, Holdernam and Holcem, together with their positions at
Holderbank, Holdernam and Holcem, their residences and -- where
appropriate -- business addresses and their citizenship.
Page 6 of 19 Pages
<PAGE>
None of these directors and executive officers has been convicted in a
criminal proceeding in the past five years (not including traffic violations and
similar minor matters) and none has been the subject of proceedings under U.S.
federal or state securities laws which resulted in the issuance of a judgment,
order or decree. Except for Peter Byland and Anton E. Schrafl, who are directors
of the Company and who each owns 250 shares of Company Common Stock, none of
these directors and executive officers has any interest in the Company's
securities or other involvement with the Company except through his positions
with Holderbank, Holdernam or Holcem.
Holderbank has presently issued and outstanding 14,100,000 shares of voting
stock. Of these, 10,100,000 are registered shares and 4,000,000 non-registered
or bearer shares. Each registered and bearer share is entitled to one vote on
matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. At December 31, 1993, Schmidheiny
held through various Swiss entities, legally or beneficially, directly or
indirectly, an aggregate of approximately 6,768,000 registered and
non-registered or bearer shares constituting approximately 48% of Holderbank's
voting stock. Holders of bearer shares are not generally known by Holderbank.
However, holders of registered shares can be identified. Based on the share
register, in addition to Schmidheiny, Swiss entities controlled by Societe
Suisse de Ciment Portland S.A., a publicly-held Swiss corporation ('SSCP'), are
the sole holders of registered shares corresponding to more than five percent of
the voting stock of Holderbank. Through various entities, legally or
beneficially, directly or indirectly, SSCP holds approximately 9% of
Holderbank's voting stock. Schmidheiny is also a director of SSCP. SSCP's
address is 23, Faubourg de l'hopital, 2000 Neuchatel, Switzerland.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
Holderbank will provide the necessary funds to pay the minority
stockholders (the 'Public Stockholders') of the Company (other than those who
perfect their dissenters' appraisal rights) for the shares of Company Common
Stock held by them from borrowings under existing lines of credit which are more
than sufficient for this purpose. Holderbank will make these funds available to
Holdernam as a contribution to the capital of Holdernam.
Page 7 of 19 Pages
<PAGE>
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
The Board of Directors of Holcem, as the holder of more than 90% of the
Company Common Stock and all the preferred stock of the Company, together with
Holdernam as the sole stockholder of Holcem, approved on January 7, 1994 the
merger (the 'Merger') of Holcem with and into the Company pursuant to Section
253 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the 'DGCL') with
the result that the separate corporate existence of Holcem will cease, Holdernam
will become the owner of 100% of the outstanding equity of the Company and each
outstanding share of Company Common Stock (other than any shares owned by Holcem
or held by stockholders who perfect their dissenters' appraisal rights) will be
converted into the right to receive $7.65 in cash from Holdernam.
Holderbank seeks to merge out the Public Stockholders for the following
reasons: (i) the Merger will secure for Holderbank the freedom to manage the
business of the Company without the inherent complexities of operating a U.S.
public company; (ii) the Merger will avoid the significant costs of maintaining
a publicly-traded U.S. company, particularly with its potential for expensive
and timeconsuming litigation; (iii) the Merger will allow Holderbank to fully
control the cash flow of the Company so that, if and when opportune, it might
reinvest such funds in business opportunities elsewhere; and (iv) the Merger
will confirm Holderbank's industrial operating-company status in the European
and other financial markets.
Following the Merger, (i) the Company's restated certificate of
incorporation will be amended to change the authorized capital stock from
200,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred
stock to 2,000 shares of Company Common Stock, of which 1,000 shares will be
issued to Holdernam, and 2,000 shares of preferred stock, of which 1,034.71333
shares will be issued to Holdernam; (ii) the Company will terminate its
reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and
(iii) the Company will remove the Company Common Stock from listing on the New
York Stock Exchange, Inc.

<PAGE>
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) Holcem currently owns 128,491,701 shares (the 'Shares') of Company
Common Stock, representing approximately 94.9% of the outstanding Company Common
Stock as of January 7, 1994. Because Holcem is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Holdernam which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holderbank, Holdernam,
Holderbank and Schmidheiny may also be considered beneficial owners of the
Shares. As a result of the Merger, Holdernam will own 100% of the Company Common
Stock. Because Holdernam is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holderbank, Holderbank
and Schmidheiny may also be considered beneficial owners of such shares of
Company Common Stock.
(b) Holcem has the power to vote and dispose of the Shares.
(c) In order to effectuate the Merger, on January 7, 1994, Holdernam
transferred the Company Common Stock and the preferred stock of the Company
owned by it to its newly-formed whollyowned subsidiary, Holcem, in exchange for
stock of Holcem. There have been no other transactions by Schmidheiny,
Holderbank, Holdernam or Holcem in the Company Common Stock during the past 60
days.
(d) No other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to
direct the receipt of dividends from or the proceeds from the sale of the
Shares.

FORM OF
CERTIFICATE OF OWNERSHIP AND MERGER
OF
HOLCEM INC.
(A DELAWARE CORPORATION)
INTO
HOLNAM INC.
(A DELAWARE CORPORATION)
(FILED PURSUANT TO SECTION 253 OF
THE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF
THE STATE OF DELAWARE)
The undersigned hereby certify that:
(1) Holnam Inc. ('Holnam') was incorporated on the 8th day of May, 1981
under the name HOFI North America Inc. pursuant to the General Corporation Law
of the State of Delaware.
(2) Holcem Inc., a corporation incorporated on the 23rd day of December,
1993 pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
('Holcem'), owns more than 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of common
stock, par value $.01 per share, of Holnam and 100% of the issued and
outstanding shares of 7% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.10
per share, of Holnam, which constitute all the outstanding classes of stock of
Holnam.
(3) The directors of Holcem, at a meeting duly called and held on January
7, 1994, unanimously adopted the following resolutions authorizing the merger of
Holcem with and into Holnam (the 'Merger') and the amendment of the Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of Holnam:
MERGER OF HOLCEM WITH HOLNAM
RESOLVED, that, pursuant to Section 253 of the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware (the 'DGCL'), Holcem merge (the 'Merger') with and into
Holnam Inc., a Delaware corporation ('Holnam').
RESOLVED, that at the effective time of the Merger each outstanding share
of common stock of Holnam (other than any shares owned by Holcem and subject to
the rights of stockholders of Holnam who perfect their dissenters' appraisal
rights) be converted into the right to receive $7.65 in cash (the 'Cash
Consideration') upon the surrender of the certificates for such shares of common
stock of Holnam to the paying agent for Holdernam Inc.
RESOLVED, that this Board of Directors has reviewed and considered such
information from and related to Holnam and concerning the Merger as it deemed
relevant and appropriate, and a presentation by and the opinion of Merrill
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, dated January 7, 1994 and addressed to Holcem and
certain affiliates of Holcem, concerning the fairness of the Cash Consideration
to be received by the stockholders of Holnam other than Holcem and, on the basis
of such review and consideration, this Board of Directors finds the Merger to be
fair to the stockholders of Holnam other than Holcem.
RESOLVED, that upon the surrender by Holdernam Inc., a Delaware corporation
and the owner of all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Holcem
('Holdernam'), of the certificates for the shares of common stock of Holcem to
the paying agent after the effective time of the Merger, Holnam shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to Holdernam certificates for (a) 1,000 shares of common
stock of Holnam in lieu of the 128,491,701 shares of common stock of Holnam held
by Holcem prior to the Merger, and (b) 1,034.71333 shares of 7% Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock of Holnam in lieu of the 620,828 shares of the 7%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of Holnam held by Holcem prior to the
Merger, which newly issued certificates shall represent all the issued and
outstanding equity securities of Holnam immediately after the Merger.
RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Holnam other than Holcem shall have
appraisal rights as set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL.
<PAGE>
RESOLVED, that the proper officers of Holcem are authorized to execute,
acknowledge, file and record a certificate of ownership and merger in accordance
with the requirements of Section 253 of the DGCL (the 'Certificate of Ownership
and Merger') and to cause the Merger to become effective, all without further
action by this Board of Directors.
RESOLVED, that at any time before the Certificate of Ownership and Merger
is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, this Board of
Directors may amend these resolutions and abandon the Merger, all in the manner
and to the extent permitted by Sections 253(c) and 251(d) of the DGCL.
