a/ The effect of common stock equivalents and/or other dilutive securities was 
   anti-dilutive or not material in this period; therefore, the amount
   presented on the income statement is the Preliminary Earnings Per Share
   Calculation.
b/ Reflects the elimination of preferred dividends upon conversion.
c/ If all of the Series A Preferred Stock were converted to Common Stock, an 
   additional 75 million shares of Common Stock would be outstanding.  This
   shows the effect on average shares outstanding during the year from the
   issuance date of November 13, 1991.
d/ Incremental effect of dividing assumed option proceeds by the ending price,
   rather than the average price, of Common Stock for each period when the
   ending price exceeds the average price.
