The following information amends and supplements the Schedule 13D dated
April 28, 1995 (the "Schedule 13D").
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:
This statement relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share (the
"Common Stock" ) of Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"). The principal executive offices of the Company are
located at 358 South Main Street, Burlington, North Carolina 27215.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:
Holdings plans to sell up to approximately 2.5 million shares of Common
Stock to a limited number of investors. Holdings currently owns 6,132,926
shares or 45.97% of the Company's Common Stock and 8 1/2% Series B Pay-in-Kind
Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock") convertible into 11,719,713 shares
of Common Stock. At June 30, 2000, assuming Holdings sells the full amount of
the 2.5 million shares of Common Stock and all of the Company's 8 1/2% Series A
Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (including
the Series B Preferred Stock held by Holdings) is converted, Holdings' ownership
of Common Stock would be approximately 45%.
The Company has filed a registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission relating to the proposed offer and sale by Holdings of the
Company's Common Stock, but the registration statement has not yet become
effective. Such securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy such
securities be accepted prior to the time such registration statement becomes
effective.
