Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On February 26, 1997, CAC purchased 190,000 shares of Common
Stock in an open market transaction at a price of $24.75 per
share, plus commissions of $11,400 or $4,713,900 in total.
Elyo loaned the funds to CAC on an intercompany basis. Elyo
has loaned funds to CAC in the past to permit it to respond
quickly to business opportunities; although there is no firm
commitment that Elyo will make such loans, CAC anticipates
that Elyo will advance funds for purposes consistent with
CAC's and Elyo's business plans. The loan to purchase the
190,000 shares of Trigen Common Stock is an open account
transaction, without collateral or any loan documentation
beyond a book entry. The interest rate and repayment terms
have not been settled at this time. Elyo used its own funds
for the advance to CAC.
Item 4. Purposes of Transaction.
Under its present business plan, Elyo intends to remain
indirectly a major shareholder of Trigen through CAC's and
CPCU's ownership of Common Stock. CAC's purchase of the
190,000 shares of Common Stock was in furtherance of this
policy.

(c) Not applicable.
(d) No person except for Lyonnaise, Elyo, CAC and CPCU, is
known to have a right to receive or the power to direct
the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the
sale of, the Common Stock owned by CAC and CPCU.
(e) Not applicable.
(f) Citizenship
Lyonnaise, Elyo and CPCU are organized under the laws
of the Republic of France. CAC is a Delaware
corporation.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
CAC, CPCU, Elyo and Lyonnaise may be deemed to form a
group. Lyonnaise owns 98% of the outstanding voting stock
of Elyo. Elyo directly owns 76.9% of the outstanding voting
stock of CAC and may be deemed to own beneficially 89.6% of
the outstanding voting stock of CAC due to its ownership of
stock in certain other entities which are themselves owners
of outstanding voting stock of CAC. CPCU is a subsidiary of
Elyo, which owns 64.5% of the outstanding voting stock of
CPCU. CAC and CPCU will most likely take actions in a
concerted manner.
