(1) Effective June 30, 1997, the Registrant's 8-1/2% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures Due 2005 (the "Debentures") were redeemed,
in full, at the par value thereof, pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture authorizing such Debentures. The Debentures were
previously listed on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol
"SAG.A." The Debentures are no longer convertible into any security
(including any equity security) of the Registrant. As a result,
Rule 12g-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is inapplicable. Furthermore,
pursuant to Rule 12h-3(b)(3) under the Exchange Act, the duty to
file reports under Section 15(d) has been suspended immediately
upon filing this Form 15.
