During the last five years, neither the Fund nor any of its
executive officers or directors has been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a

and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a
(Page 6 of 11 Pages)
<PAGE> 7
judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting
or mandating activities subject to, United States federal or state securities
laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On November 14, 1995, the Fund acquired 6,000 shares of Common
Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $57,287.50, raising the number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Fund to 2,213,400
(approximately 5.01% of aggregate number of shares outstanding) and requiring
the Fund to file this statement on Schedule 13D. From November 15 - 17, 1995,
the Fund acquired an additional 49,500 shares of Common Stock, as described in
more detail in Item 5 below, raising the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the Fund to 2,262,900 (approximately 5.1% of the
aggregate number of shares outstanding).
The funds for the foregoing purchase of shares of the Common
Stock by the Fund were supplied from Dutch public sector pensioners'
contributions to the Fund.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Fund has acquired the Common Stock for the purpose of
making an investment in the Issuer and not with the present intention of
acquiring control of the Issuer's business.
The Fund from time to time intends to review its investment in
the Issuer on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer's business,
financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and
industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the
Issuer's securities in particular, as well as other developments and other
investment opportunities. Based on such review, the Fund will take such
actions in the future as the Fund may deem appropriate in light of the
circumstances existing from time to time. If the Fund believes that further
investment in the Issuer is attractive, whether because of the market price of
the Issuer's securities or otherwise, it may acquire shares of Common Stock or
other securities of the Issuer either in the open market or in privately
negotiated transactions. Similarly, depending on market and other factors, the
Fund may determine to dispose of some or all of the Common Stock currently
owned by the Fund or otherwise acquired by the Fund either in the open market
or in privately negotiated transactions.
Except as set forth above, the Fund has not formulated any
plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisiton by
any person of additional securities
(Page 7 of 11 Pages)
<PAGE> 8
of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer, (b) an
extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer or any of its
subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the
Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of
directors or managment of the Issuer, (e) any material change in the Issuer's
capitalization or dividend policy, (f) any other material change in the
Issuer's business or corporate structure, (g) any change in the Issuer's
charter or bylaws or other instrument corresponding thereto or other action
which may impede the acquisiton of control of the Issuer by any person, (h)
causing a class of the Issuer's securities to be deregistered or delisted, (i)
a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of
registration or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a)-(b) As of the date hereof, the Fund beneficially owns
2,262,900 shares of Common Stock. Based upon information provided to the Fund
by the Issuer on November 21, 1995, such shares constitute approximately 5.1%
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Fund has the sole power (i) to
vote and to dispose of 2,000,000 of such shares and (ii) to dispose of but not
vote 262,900 of such shares which are held by the Fund in separate securities
accounts with ABN AMRO BANK N.V. managed by Cohen & Steers Capital Management
Inc. and ABKB/La Salle Securities, respectively. To the knowledge of the Fund,
no shares of Common Stock are beneficially owned by any director or executive
officer listed under Item 2 above.
(c) The Fund has effected the following open market
purchases of the Common Stock during the past 60 days:
