ITEM 13.    INFORMATION REQUIRED BY SCHEDULE 13E-3.

        The LYONs are deemed "equity securities" because they are convertible
into the Company's common stock.  The LYONs currently are listed on the NYSE,
although the NYSE has suspended trading of the LYONs and has indicated its
intention to apply to delist the LYONs.  Because the Tender Offer has either
the reasonable likelihood or purpose of causing the LYONs to no longer be
listed on the NYSE, this transaction is technically deemed to constitute a
"going-private transaction."  As such, the following sets forth that
information required by Schedule 13E-3 that has not already been set forth in
Items 1-12 above.  The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase is
incorporated herein by reference to the items required by Schedule 13E-3.

ITEM 2 OF SCHEDULE 13E-3.

(a)     DIVIDENDS ON NOTES.  Not applicable.

(b)     PRIOR PUBLIC OFFERINGS OF THE NOTES.  Not applicable.

(c)     PRIOR PURCHASES OF THE NOTES.  Not applicable.

ITEM 4 OF SCHEDULE 13E-3.

(a)     DIFFERENT TERMS.  The terms or arrangements that treat any Holder of
        LYONs or Debentures different from other Holders of LYONs or
        Debentures are set forth in the Offer to Purchase under the captions
        "Special Factors - Adverse Effect of Proposed Amendments on Holders
        Who Do Not Tender," "Proposed Amendments to the Indentures" and "The
        Tender Offers and Consent Solicitations" which are incorporated
        herein by reference.

(b)     APPRAISAL RIGHTS.  Holders of LYONs and Debentures do not have
        appraisal rights in connection with this transaction.  See the
