                    the beneficial owner of the following Shares:

                         3,538,651 shares
                    
                                      -4-
         (b)  Percent of class:(based on 47,901,000 shares
                    outstanding)

                         7.39%

               (c)  Number of shares as to which such person has:

                    (i)       sole power to vote or to direct the vote:
                              None

                    (ii)      shared power to vote or to direct the    
                              vote:  3,538,651

                    (iii)     sole power to dispose or to direct the   
                              disposition of:  3,201,151

                    (iv)      shared power to dispose or to direct the
                              disposition of:  337,500

               Harris has been granted the power to vote shares in
               circumstances it determines to be appropriate in connection
               with assisting its advised clients to whom it renders
               financial advice in the ordinary course of its business, by
               either providing information or advice to the persons having
               such power, or by exercising the power to vote when it
               determines such action appropriate in connection with
               matters which are submitted to a security holder's vote.
                    
               In addition, Harris serves as investment adviser to Harris
               Associates Investment Trust (the "Trust"), and various of
               Harris' officers and directors are also officers and
               trustees of the Trust.  Harris does not consider that the
               Trust is controlled by such persons. The Trust, through its
               various series, beneficially owns 205,700 Shares, which are
               included as Shares over which Harris has shared voting and
               dispositive power, and thus, as Shares beneficially owned by
               Harris because of Harris' power to manage the Trust's
               investment.  In addition, Harris serves as investment
               adviser to a small number of other clients who may own
               Shares, but for which Harris does not have discretionary
               authority.  Nevertheless, the Shares are included in the
               aggregate number of Shares over which Harris has shared
               voting and shared dispositive power reported herein,
               although Harris may not be deemed the beneficial owner (as
               defined in Rule 13d-3) of such shares.
