    (a)  Series B dividends for the year ended December 31, 1993
         are not net of income tax benefits associated with
         unallocated shares in the TESOP in accordance with EITF
         Issue No. 92-3.

    (b)  Effect of mandatory conversion of Series C preferred
         stock for the six months ended December 31, 1992 and the
         year ended June 30, 1992 have been restated to reflect
         the common shares issuable at the closing market at
         December 31, 1993 of $49.40.
    (c)  This calculation is submitted in accordance with
         Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(11) although not required by
         footnote 2 to paragraph 14 of APB Opinion No. 15
         because it results in dilution of less than 3%.
    (d)  For the year ended December 31, 1993 and the six months
         ended December 31, 1992 these items are anti- dilutive
         and thus are omitted from the calculation.
