- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549 FORM 8-K CURRENT REPORT Pursuant to Section 13 OR 15 (d) of The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Date of Report (Date of earliest event reported) SEPTEMBER 29, 1995 NEW ENGLAND INVESTMENT COMPANIES, L.P. (Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter) DELAWARE 1-9468 13-3405992 (Name or other (Commission File Number) (IRS Employer jurisdiction of Identification No.) incorporation) 399 BOYLSTON STREET, BOSTON, 02116 MASSACHUSETTS (Zip Code) (Address of principal executive offices) Registrant's telephone number, including area code (617) 578-3500 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. - --------------------------------------------- On September 29, 1995 New England Investment Companies, L.P. ("NEIC") purchased substantially all of the assets and acquired certain liabilities of Harris Associates L.P. ("Harris"), a Chicago-based investment management company with approximately $7.1 billion of assets under management. Founded in 1976, Harris developed institutional, private client and multi- manager product offerings totaling $3.5 billion in assets under management. Harris also serves as the investment advisor for the $3.6 billion Oakmark Fund Group. Harris will continue to operate out of its Chicago office and will retain its operating independence. Prior to the acquisition, Harris was a privately held partnership. NEIC purchased substantially all of the assets and acquired certain liabilities of Harris for $175.0 million payable in 5,366,898 of newly issued L.P. units totaling $95.3 million and promissory notes due January 10, 1996 (the "Notes") in the aggregate amount of $79.7 million. The L.P. unit price of $17.75 was determined at market value under a formula as set forth in the Partnership Admission Agreement (the "Agreement"). The Notes are secured by an $80.0 million letter of credit. Payment upon maturity is expected to be financed with a privately placed seven-year financing. Pursuant to the Agreement, NEIC expects to make a contingent payment on April 2, 1997, also in L.P. units, cash or a combination thereof as a purchase price adjustment based upon the performance of Harris' business in 1996. The minimum contingent payment is expected to approximate $35.0 million based upon Harris' projected 1995 qualifying revenues as defined in the Agreement. This estimated payment will be made in a combination of cash and L.P. units based on selection by the seller's partners. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and has resulted in the recording of approximately all of the consideration as an intangible asset for financial reporting purposes. 2 ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS. - --------------------- Certain Operating Policies NEIC bases its distribution and other operating policies on operating cash flow per L.P. unit. Operating cash flow per L.P. unit is defined as net income per publicly held L.P. unit plus amortization of the intangible assets associated with acquisitions adjusted for any other significant non-cash items. Capital gains are not reflected as a component of operating cash flow per L.P. unit. NEIC generally intends to distribute substantially all of its operating cash flow per L.P. unit not required for normal business operations, working capital needs, or growth strategies. The following discussion shows the pro forma effect of the Harris acquisition on operating cash flow per L.P. unit for the six months ended June 30, 1995. The Harris acquisition has resulted in the recording of an intangible asset of $213.4 million. The resulting amortization, combined with the amortization that arose from the Reich & Tang combination, is a non-cash expense that will not affect cash available for distribution to partners. Historical and pro forma operating cash flow per L.P. unit for the six months ended June 30, 1995 follows: SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 -------------------- HISTORICAL PRO FORMA ---------- --------- Net income per publicly held L.P. unit............. $ .93 $ .81 Add amortization of intangible assets.............. .17 .32 Less capital gains................................. (.15) (.12) ------ ------ Operating cash flow per L.P. unit.................. $ .95 $ 1.01(1) ====== ====== Distributions declared per unit.................... $ .86 n/a ====== ====== Weighted average L.P. units outstanding (in thousands)........................................ 31,990 39,004(1) ====== ====== The above calculation of operating cash flow per L.P. unit should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of NEIC and Harris, and the notes thereto. Operating cash flow per L.P. unit should not be considered as an alternative to net income per publicly held L.P. unit or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as reported in the statement of cash flows. - -------- (1) Pro forma weighted average L.P. units outstanding includes 1,647,000 L.P. units that are assumed to be issued during 1997 resulting from the estimated contingent payment due Harris based on its 1996 results. Excluding the 1,647,000 L.P. units that may be issued resulting from the contingent payment due Harris, pro forma operating cash flow per L.P. unit would be $1.06. See the pro forma financial information appearing in Item 7(b) together with supporting notes thereon for additional information. 3 ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

AND SUBSIDIARIES AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992. HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 TOGETHER WITH AUDITORS' REPORT 7 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Partners of Harris Associates L.P.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition of HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. (a Delaware limited partnership) AND SUBSIDIARIES as of December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of Hesperus Partners, Ltd. ("Hesperus"), Aurora Limited Partnership ("Aurora"), Perseus Partners Limited Partnership ("Perseus"), Pleiades Partners L.P. ("Pleiades"), (all Illinois limited partnerships), and Stellar Partners L.P. ("Stellar") (a Delaware limited partnership). The investments in these partnerships represent 6%, 43% and 42% of partners' capital and the equity in earnings represent 2%, 31% and 48% of net income in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The financial statements of Hesperus, Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades and Stellar were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for such partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Harris Associates, L.P. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harris Associates L.P. ("HALP") and Harris Associates Securities L.P. ("HASLP"), of which HALP is a 99% limited partner. The consolidated financial statements also include the following entities of which HALP owned the majority voting interest or over which it exercised significant control: Venus Partners ("Venus"), Hesperus Partners, Ltd. ("Hesperus"), Aurora Limited Partnership ("Aurora"), Perseus Partners Limited Partnership ("Perseus"), Pleiades Partners L.P. ("Pleiades") and Stellar Partners L.P. ("Stellar"), hereinafter referred to as the "Consolidated Partnerships". Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 94, "Consolidation of all Majority-Owned Subsidiaries," requires that such entities be consolidated (see Note 2). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. HALP and consolidated subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as "the Partnership." Securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased are valued as follows: securities that are traded on a national securities exchange or securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last sales price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or listed, or if no last sale, the mean between the "bid" and "ask" prices. Marketable securities sold, not yet purchased, represent obligations of the Partnership to deliver a specified security at a future date which will necessitate purchasing the security at then-prevailing prices. Investments in limited partnerships are valued at the Investment Partnership's proportionate interest in the fair value of the underlying net assets of such limited partnerships determined from their audited financial statements. The resulting gains and losses are reflected in the accompanying statements of income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Dividend income and expense is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are reported on the first-in, first-out basis. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing rate of exchange at the end of the period. Transactions during the period, including purchases and sales of securities, are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transactions. Forward foreign currency contracts and foreign currencies are valued at the forward and current exchange rates, respectively, prevailing on the day of valuation. All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Limited partners' contributions received in advance represent amounts contributed by limited partners in the Consolidated Partnerships prior to December 31, which are to become effective as of January 1 of the following year. As of January 1 of the following year, these amounts are classified as limited partners' interests in Consolidated Partnerships. Limited partners' withdrawals payable represent limited partners' withdrawals from the Consolidated Partnerships as of December 31 for those who have given notice prior to December 31, that they are withdrawing amounts as of year-end. Depreciation is computed under accelerated methods over estimated useful lives of 5 to 10 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed over the lesser of their economic useful lives or the remaining term of the lease. 13 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 No provision is made for federal income tax purposes since the Partnership's income is includable in the income tax returns of the individual partners. The Partnership is subject to an Illinois replacement tax equal to 1 1/2% of net income, as defined. 2. CONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS: HALP was the general partner in Venus, a limited partnership which engaged in "reverse conversion" transactions through early 1993. HALP was the general partner in Hesperus, a private investment partnership, through December 31, 1993. Also, HALP is currently the general partner in Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades and Stellar, limited partnerships which trade securities and invest in other partnerships which trade various financial instruments. Stellar commenced operations in 1994. HALP's percentage of capital was approximately 99% of Venus, 3% of Hesperus and 1% of the other partnerships. HALP received a pro rata allocation of income or loss in addition to other priority allocations. In certain instances, the net income of the individual Consolidated Partnerships had to exceed specified amounts before HALP received such a priority allocation. The combined condensed financial information of Venus, Hesperus, Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades and Stellar for each of the three years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, are as follows (in thousands of dollars): 1994 1993 1992 ---- ---- ---- Assets-- Cash and cash equivalents....................... $ 10,914 $ 64,515 $ 36,573 Receivables..................................... 21,697 26,350 125,755 Securities owned................................ 132,790 184,264 89,349 Investments in and advances to limited partner- ships.......................................... 405,491 364,747 202,729 Designated investments and other assets......... 5,488 5,973 2,405 -------- -------- -------- Total assets.................................. $576,380 $645,849 $456,811 ======== ======== ======== Liabilities-- Loans payable................................... $ 24,340 $ 10,000 $ 3,601 Securities sold, not yet purchased.............. 113,592 81,754 120,532 Other liabilities............................... 5,971 13,299 2,899 Limited partners' contributions received in advance and withdrawals payable................ 138,159 91,685 37,043 -------- -------- -------- Total liabilities............................. 282,062 196,738 164,075 Partners' capital................................. 294,318 449,111 292,736 -------- -------- -------- Total liabilities and partners' capital....... $576,380 $645,849 $456,811 ======== ======== ======== Revenues, including change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of securities........ $(10,159) $105,343 $ 53,944 Expenses, including advisory and administrative fees to HALP..................................... 9,517 8,732 11,640 -------- -------- -------- Net income (loss)............................. $(19,676) $ 96,611 $ 42,304 ======== ======== ======== Carrying value of investments of HALP at December 31............................................... $ 1,380 $ 12,089 $ 19,412 HALP's share of net income exclusive of advisory and administrative fees paid to HALP............. 716 10,555 6,957 Advisory and administrative (management) fees paid to HALP.......................................... 3,739 3,690 3,487 ======== ======== ======== 14 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 3. DUE TO/FROM BROKERS AND DEALERS: The Partnership conducts its clearing and depository operations for its trading activities through various brokers pursuant to customary agreements. Due to/from brokers and dealers includes cash balances with the Partnership's clearing brokers, net amounts receivable and payable for securities transactions that have not settled and collateral for a specified percentage of the value of all marketable securities sold, not yet purchased. 4. INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS: The Investment Partnerships have investments in limited partnerships which engage in various trading strategies. Underlying investments of the limited partnerships are valued at current market and can include purchases and short sales of government or government agency securities, corporate stocks and bonds, commodity futures and forward contracts, options, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, rate caps and rate swaps, commercial paper and other securities. At December 31, 1994, the Investment Partnerships in the aggregate had investments in approximately 60 limited partnerships; the largest investment in any one limited partnership being approximately $25,000,000. 5. DESIGNATED INVESTMENTS: One of the Investment Partnerships has invested in certain limited partnerships, which have allocated, among the partners of such limited partnerships, a fixed percentage ownership interest in any appreciation or depreciation and realized gains or losses on disposition of certain investments, hereinafter referred to as "Designated Investments." Designated Investments are valued at fair value as determined by the general partners of such limited partnerships. Capital consisting of each partner's share of the cost and net unrealized appreciation or depreciation resulting from designated investments is segregated within partners' capital of such partnership. The cost of such investments, as well as related unrealized gains or losses, is not available for distribution until the investment is sold or otherwise disposed of by the limited partnership. 6. LINE-OF-CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS: Certain of the Consolidated Partnerships maintain separate lines of credit agreements with banks aggregating $59,200,000 at December 31, 1994. Interest is payable at the prime or corporate base rate, as determined by the bank. The total borrowings are limited as defined in the agreements, including, among other things, the borrowings are limited to 33% of the net assets of such Investment Partnerships. During 1992, HALP had a $20,000,000 line of credit, the sole purpose of which was to invest in and make advances to Venus. Any loans thereunder were collateralized by HALP's general partnership interest in Venus and the guarantee of certain partners of HALP with interest at approximately 1.5 times the federal funds rate. The average borrowings on the credit arrangements described above and the average rate of interest for 1994, 1993 and 1992 were $37,441,000, $23,919,000 and $32,104,000 and 5.6%, 4.6% and 5.1%, respectively. Interest expense incurred on such lines of credit was $2,157,128, $1,159,932 and $2,069,456 for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. 15 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: HALP had a lease for office facilities through 1998 which it renegotiated in 1994. At December 31, 1994, HALP's lease for office facilities requires minimum annual rental payments, excluding escalations and increases in operating expenses and taxes, as follows: Year ending December 31-- 1995.......................................................... $ 460,299 1996.......................................................... 517,199 1997.......................................................... 526,237 1998.......................................................... 535,275 1999.......................................................... 544,313 2000 to 2004.................................................. 2,511,067 ---------- Total....................................................... $5,094,390 ========== Under the terms of the lease agreements, rental payments for certain periods were waived. HALP computed an average monthly rental for the entire term of the lease and charged this amount to rental expense each month. Rental expense for 1994, 1993 and 1992 was $449,886, $409,174 and $456,998, respectively. The difference between the average monthly rental and the actual rental payment is accounted for as deferred rent payable. This difference will be offset in future years when the actual rental payments exceed the calculated average monthly rental. HASLP is an introducing broker and clears all transactions with and for customers on a fully disclosed basis with another broker-dealer. HASLP promptly transmits all customer funds and securities to such clearing broker- dealer. In connection with this arrangement, HASLP is contingently liable for the payment of securities purchased and the delivery of securities sold by customers. 8. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS: As a registered broker-dealer and member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., HASLP is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). This rule requires that net capital, as defined, shall be at least the greater of $100,000 or 6- 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, as defined. Net capital and aggregate indebtedness change from day to day, but at December 31, 1994, HASLP had required capital of $100,000 and excess net capital of $158,645. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was .59 to 1. HASLP was in compliance with the net capital rule at December 31, 1993 and 1992. Under the agreement with its clearing broker, HASLP is to maintain minimum net capital of $250,000. 9. EXEMPTION FROM SEC RULE 15C3-3: HASLP is exempt from the provisions of SEC Rule 15c3-3 because it clears all customer trades with another broker-dealer on a fully disclosed basis. 10. RELATED PARTIES: Harris Associates, Inc. ("HAI") is the general partner of HALP and HASLP. 16 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 HALP provides investment advisory and administrative services to Harris Associates Investment Trust ("HAIT"), a series of mutual funds that utilize the Oakmark name. Certain of HAIT's officers and trustees are also partners and employees of HALP. During 1994, 1993 and 1992, HALP received $28,048,203, $11,289,461 and $613,801, respectively, in fees from HAIT. HASLP received $272,804, $287,438 and $191,464 in commissions from HAIT during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 1992, certain partners of HALP withdrew from HALP. In connection with such withdrawal, those partners were relieved of certain obligations imposed under HALP's Partnership Agreement. As consideration for being relieved of those obligations, the withdrawing partners surrendered their partnership units and agreed to pay HALP approximately $2,500,000 on June 30, 1992, plus additional amounts to be paid through June 30, 1995. Concurrent with the withdrawal of those partners from HALP, the investment advisory agreements with The Acorn Fund, Inc. ("Acorn") and certain other persons were terminated and Acorn and those other persons entered into new investment advisory agreements with an entity formed by the withdrawn partners. HALP received $3,384,837, $1,892,432 and $2,739,600 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, under this agreement. HALP received $3,377,531 in fees for investment advisory services in the first half of 1992. 11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN: HALP has a profit-sharing plan covering partners and employees. Contributions to the plan are at the discretion of HALP. HALP funds all contributions on a current basis. The amounts charged to expense for 1994, 1993 and 1992 were $934,899, $1,035,512 and $879,219, respectively. 12. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY AND FUTURES COMMODITY CONTRACTS: Certain of the Investment Partnerships, through an advisory account, enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the currency risks associated with the purchase of foreign securities. The Investment Partnerships entered into forward foreign currency contracts to deliver 26,377,000, 11,073,000 and 1,341,000 Canadian dollars in exchange for $19,196,371, $8,419,186 and $1,056,332 at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The unrealized gain of $391,555, $55,474 and $6,456 at December 31 , 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, is reflected in the accompanying statements of income. The Investment Partnerships bear the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates and the risk that the counterparty fails to perform under terms of the contract. At December 31, 1993 and 1992, Hesperus had sold S&P 500 futures contracts short with a contractual amount of $24,500,000 and $19,700,000, respectively. Such contracts were recorded on the trade date and marked to market with the gain/loss reflected in net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on securities owned. 13. ADDITIONAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION: Illinois replacement tax paid was $80,195, $69,780 and $62,781 during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Interest expense paid was $2,530,716, $1,354,658 and $2,692,935 during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. 14. SUBSEQUENT PARTNERS' CAPITAL WITHDRAWALS: During the period January 1, 1995, to February 10, 1995, the partners withdrew capital of $20,404,531. 17 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONCLUDED) DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: On June 22, 1995, New England Investment Companies, L.P. ("NEIC") agreed with HALP and HAI to acquire certain of the assets and assume certain of the liabilities of HALP, including its interest in HASLP, in exchange for limited partnership units of NEIC. It is anticipated that, prior to the closing of the agreed-upon transaction, the partners of HALP would make substantial capital withdrawals, leaving HALP with minimal assets. 18 ITEM 7(A)(II) CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF HARRIS L.P.

AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 TOGETHER WITH ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT 19 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Partners of Harris Associates L.P.: We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. (a Delaware limited partnership) AND SUBSIDIARIES as of June 30, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for each of the six- month periods then ended, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of the Partnership. A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements referred to above in order for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harris Associates L.P. ("HALP") and Harris Associates Securities L.P. ("HASLP"), of which HALP is a 99% limited partner. The consolidated financial statements also include the following entities over which HALP exercised significant control as of June 30, 1995 and 1994: Aurora Limited Partnership ("Aurora"), Perseus Partners Limited Partnership ("Perseus"), Pleiades Partners L.P. ("Pleiades"), Stellar Partners L.P. ("Stellar") and SPA Partners L.P. ("SPA"), hereinafter referred to as the "Consolidated Partnerships". Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries," requires that such entities be consolidated (see Note 2). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. HALP and consolidated subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as "the Partnership." See Note 15. Securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased are valued as follows: securities that are traded on a national securities exchange or securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last sales price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or listed, or if no last sale, the mean between the "bid" and "ask" prices. Marketable securities sold, not yet purchased, represent obligations of the Partnership to deliver a specified security at a future date which will necessitate purchasing the security at then-prevailing prices. Investments in limited partnerships are valued at the Consolidated Partnerships' proportionate interest in the fair value of the underlying net assets of such limited partnerships determined from their financial statements or other financial data received from such partnerships. The resulting gains and losses are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Dividend income and expense is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are reported on the first-in, first-out basis. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing rate of exchange at the end of the period. Transactions during the period, including purchases and sales of securities, are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transactions. Forward foreign currency contracts and foreign currencies are valued at the forward and current exchange rates, respectively, prevailing on the day of valuation. All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Limited partners' contributions received in advance represent amounts contributed by limited partners in the Consolidated Partnerships prior to June 30, which are to become effective as of July 1 of the following month. As of July 1 of the following month, these amounts are classified as limited partners' interests in Consolidated Partnerships. Limited partners' withdrawals payable represent limited partners' withdrawals from the Consolidated Partnerships as of June 30 for those who have given notice prior to June 30, that they are withdrawing amounts as of June 30. Depreciation is computed under accelerated methods over estimated useful lives of 5 to 10 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed over the lesser of their economic useful lives or the remaining term of the lease. 25 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 No provision is made for federal income tax purposes since the Partnership's income is includable in the income tax returns of the individual partners. The Partnership is subject to an Illinois replacement tax equal to 1 1/2% of net income, as defined. 2. CONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS: HALP is currently the general partner in Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades, Stellar and SPA limited partnerships which trade securities and invest in other partnerships which trade various financial instruments. Stellar commenced operations in January, 1994, and SPA in January, 1995. HALP's percentage of capital is approximately 1% of such partnerships. HALP receives a pro rata allocation of income or loss in addition to other priority allocations. In certain instances, the net income of the individual Consolidated Partnerships must exceed specified amounts before HALP receives such a priority allocation. As this pro rata allocation is determined based upon calendar year results, HALP has not reflected any such amounts at June 30, 1995 and 1994. At June 30, 1995 and 1994, such amounts are immaterial. The combined condensed financial information of Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades, Stellar and SPA as of June 30, 1995 and 1994, and for the six months then ended, are as follows: 1995 1994 ---- ---- Assets-- Cash and cash equivalents........................ $ 5,723,862 $ 16,476,802 Receivables...................................... 4,069,493 22,852,824 Securities owned................................. 114,293,300 120,449,391 Investments in limited partnerships.............. 318,049,343 417,370,739 Designated investments and other assets.......... 5,947,575 6,042,956 ------------ ------------ Total assets................................... $448,083,573 $583,192,712 ============ ============ Liabilities-- Loans payable.................................... $ 18,994,600 $ 41,774,500 Securities sold, not yet purchased............... 79,256,773 90,164,341 Other liabilities................................ 9,402,120 2,184,978 Limited partners' contributions received in advance and withdrawals payable................. 3,657,678 20,571,038 ------------ ------------ Total liabilities.............................. 111,311,171 154,694,857 Partners' capital.................................. 336,772,402 428,497,855 ------------ ------------ Total liabilities and partners' capital........ $448,083,573 $583,192,712 ============ ============ Revenues, including change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of securities and gain (loss) on investments in limited partnerships..... $ 17,421,497 $(12,655,398) Expenses, including advisory and administrative fees to HALP...................................... 5,348,048 4,337,988 ------------ ------------ Net income (loss).............................. $ 12,073,449 $(16,993,386) ============ ============ Carrying value of investments of HALP at June 30... $ 1,451,324 $ 1,578,919 HALP's share of net income exclusive of advisory and administrative fees paid to HALP.............. 39,137 143,874 Advisory and administrative (management) fees paid to HALP........................................... 1,580,410 1,932,201 ============ ============ 26 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 3. DUE TO/FROM BROKERS AND DEALERS: The Partnership conducts its clearing and depository operations for its trading activities through various brokers pursuant to customary agreements. Due to/from brokers and dealers includes cash balances with the Partnership's clearing brokers, net amounts receivable and payable for securities transactions that have not settled and collateral for a specified percentage of the value of all marketable securities sold, not yet purchased. 4. INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS: The Consolidated Partnerships have investments in limited partnerships which engage in various trading strategies. Underlying investments of the limited partnerships are valued at current market and can include purchases and short sales of government or government agency securities, corporate stocks and bonds, commodity futures and forward contracts, options, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, rate caps and rate swaps, commercial paper and other securities. At June 30, 1995 and 1994, the Consolidated Partnerships in the aggregate had investments in 63 and 60 limited partnerships, respectively; the largest investment in any one limited partnership being $15,188,622 and $24,560,440, respectively. 5. DESIGNATED INVESTMENTS: One of the Consolidated Partnerships has invested in certain limited partnerships, which have allocated, among the partners of such limited partnerships, a fixed percentage ownership interest in any appreciation or depreciation and realized gains or losses on disposition of certain investments, hereinafter referred to as "Designated Investments." Designated Investments are valued at fair value as determined by the general partners of such limited partnerships. Capital consisting of each partner's share of the cost and net unrealized appreciation or depreciation resulting from designated investments is segregated within partners' capital of such partnership. The cost of such investments, as well as related unrealized gains or losses, is not available for distribution until the investment is sold or otherwise disposed of by the limited partnership. 6. LINE-OF-CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS: Certain of the Consolidated Partnerships maintain separate lines of credit agreements with banks aggregating $71,200,000 at June 30, 1995. Interest is payable at the prime or corporate base rate, as determined by the bank. The total borrowings are limited as defined in the agreements, including, among other things, that borrowings are limited to 33% of the net assets of such Consolidated Partnerships. The average month-end borrowings on the credit arrangements described above and the average rate of interest for 1995 and 1994 were $14,977,417 and $36,020,167 and 7.4% and 5.0%, respectively. Interest expense incurred on such lines of credit was $516,107 and $870,235 for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: HALP had a lease for office facilities through 1998 which it renegotiated in 1994. At June 30, 1995, HALP's lease for office facilities requires minimum annual rental payments, excluding escalations and increases in operating expenses and taxes, as follows: 27 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 Six months ending December 31, 1995............................ $ 230,000 Year ending December 31-- 1996......................................................... 517,000 1997......................................................... 526,000 1998......................................................... 535,000 1999......................................................... 544,000 2000 to 2004................................................. 2,511,000 ---------- Total...................................................... $4,863,000 ========== Under the terms of the lease agreements, rental payments for certain periods were waived. HALP computed an average monthly rental for the entire term of the lease and charged this amount to rental expense each month. Rental expense for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, was $160,504 and $249,632, respectively. The difference between the average monthly rental and the actual rental payment is accounted for as deferred rent payable. This difference will be offset in future years when the actual rental payments exceed the calculated average monthly rental. HASLP is an introducing broker and clears all transactions with and for customers on a fully disclosed basis with another broker-dealer. HASLP promptly transmits all customer funds and securities to such clearing broker- dealer. In connection with this arrangement, HASLP is contingently liable for the payment of securities purchased and the delivery of securities sold by customers. 8. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS: As a registered broker-dealer and member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., HASLP is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). This rule requires that net capital, as defined, shall be at least the greater of $100,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, as defined. Net capital and aggregate indebtedness change from day to day, but at June 30, 1995, HASLP had required capital of $100,000 and excess net capital of $154,269. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was less than 1 to 1. HASLP was in compliance with the net capital rule at June 30, 1994. Under the agreement with its clearing broker, HASLP is to maintain minimum net capital of $250,000. 9. EXEMPTION FROM SEC RULE 15C3-3: HASLP is exempt from the provisions of SEC Rule 15c3-3 because it clears all customer trades with another broker-dealer on a fully disclosed basis. 10. RELATED PARTIES: Harris Associates, Inc. ("HAI") is the general partner of HALP and HASLP. HALP provides investment advisory and administrative services to Harris Associates Investment Trust ("HAIT"), a series of mutual funds that utilize the Oakmark name. Certain of HAIT's officers and trustees are also partners and employees of HALP. During the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, HALP received $14,579,196 and $13,693,992, respectively, in fees from HAIT. HASLP received $128,354 and $102,697 in commissions from HAIT through June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 28 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 1992, certain partners of HALP withdrew from HALP. In connection with such withdrawal, those partners were relieved of certain obligations imposed under HALP's Partnership Agreement. As consideration for being relieved of those obligations, the withdrawing partners surrendered their partnership units and agreed to pay HALP approximately $2,500,000 on June 30, 1992, plus additional amounts to be paid for the period through June 30, 1995. Concurrent with the withdrawal of those partners from HALP, the investment advisory agreements with The Acorn Fund, Inc. ("Acorn") and certain other persons were terminated and Acorn and those other persons entered into new investment advisory agreements with an entity formed by the withdrawn partners. HALP received $1,724,291 and $1,605,779 in the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, under this agreement. 11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN: HALP has a profit-sharing plan covering partners and employees. Contributions to the plan are at the discretion of HALP. HALP funds all contributions on a current basis. The amounts charged to expense for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, were $475,917 and $454,739, respectively. 12. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS: Certain of the Consolidated Partnerships, through an advisory account, enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the currency risks associated with the purchase of foreign securities. The Consolidated Partnerships entered into forward foreign currency contracts to deliver 8,985,000 and 33,773,000 Canadian dollars in exchange for $6,298,038 and $24,817,849, at June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The unrealized gain (loss) of $(216,987) and $487,618 at June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, is reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Consolidated Partnerships bear the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates and the risk that the counterparty fails to perform under terms of the contract. 13. ADDITIONAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION: Illinois replacement tax paid was $51,000 and $75,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Interest expense paid was $1,047,430 and $1,279,869 during the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 14. SUBSEQUENT PARTNERS' CAPITAL WITHDRAWALS: During the period July 1, 1995, to August 15, 1995, the partners withdrew capital of $854,861. 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: On June 22, 1995, New England Investment Companies, L.P. ("NEIC") agreed with HALP and HAI to acquire certain of the assets and assume certain of the liabilities of HALP, including its interest in HASLP, in exchange for limited partnership units of NEIC. It is anticipated that, prior to the closing of the agreed-upon transaction, the partners of HALP would make substantial capital withdrawals, leaving HALP with minimal assets. Under a new advisory agreement entered into with the Oakmark Funds (as HAIT) the investment advisory fees have been reduced from 1% of net assets under management to 1% for the first $2.5 billion, .95% on the next $1.25 billion, .90% on the next $1.25 billion and .85% on net assets in excess of $5 billion for Oakmark Fund. The annual rate of fee for Oakmark International will be 1% on the first $2.5 billion, .95% on the next 29 HARRIS ASSOCIATES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES (A DELAWARE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONCLUDED) JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994 $2.5 billion and .90% on net assets in excess of $5 billion. Had the new advisory agreement been in effect in 1994, the fees received in the six-months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, would have remained the same. In July, 1995, the Partnership Agreements of each of the Consolidated Partnerships (Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades, Stellar and SPA) were amended. The amendments were such that they reduced the amount of control that HALP exercised over each of the Consolidated Partnerships. Although the accompanying financial statements have been prepared, including the Consolidated Partnerships, these amendments are such that had they been in effect as of June 30, 1995, the consolidated financial statements of HALP would have reflected such entities on the equity basis of accounting rather than on a full consolidation basis and only HASLP would have been consolidated. The consolidated financial statements of HALP and HASLP without consolidating Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades, Stellar and SPA at June 30, 1995 and 1994, and for each of the six months then ended are as follows: 1995 1994 ---- ---- Assets-- Cash and cash equivalents............................ $ 5,498,036 $ 5,571,757 Receivables.......................................... 4,874,547 4,234,646 U.S. Government securities and commercial paper...... 316,208 317,590 Investments in Aurora, Perseus, Pleiades, Stellar and SPA................................................. 1,451,324 1,578,919 Other assets......................................... 847,401 624,423 ----------- ----------- Total assets....................................... $12,987,516 $12,327,335 =========== =========== Liabilities-- Accounts payable and accrued expenses................ 1,103,852 783,594 Unearned advisory fees............................... 419,313 415,812 ----------- ----------- Total liabilities.................................. 1,523,165 1,199,406 Partners' capital...................................... 11,464,351 11,127,929 ----------- ----------- Total liabilities and partners' capital............ $12,987,516 $12,327,335 =========== =========== Revenues-- Fees for account supervisor and investment advisory services............................................ $27,102,592 $24,530,663 Commissions.......................................... 1,555,927 1,662,128 Interest............................................. 193,119 102,447 Dividends............................................ 36,431 4,757 Equity in earnings of limited partnerships........... 39,137 143,874 Other................................................ 1,993,609 1,769,882 ----------- ----------- Total revenues..................................... 30,920,815 28,213,751 Expenses-- Employee and partner compensation and benefits....... 4,090,654 4,005,915 Clearing fees........................................ 329,048 403,796 Communications....................................... 321,501 338,349 Occupancy and equipment rental....................... 594,264 459,460 Other................................................ 1,870,172 2,067,090 ----------- ----------- Total expenses..................................... 7,205,639 7,274,610 ----------- ----------- Net income......................................... $23,715,176 $20,939,141 =========== =========== 30 ITEM 7(B) PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF NEW ENGLAND INVESTMENT COMPANIES, L.P. NEW ENGLAND INVESTMENT COMPANIES, L.P. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as of and for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and for the year ended December 31, 1994 is based on the historical financial statements of NEIC included in its 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the June 30, 1995 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the historical financial statements of Harris as of June 30, 1995, the six months ended June 30, 1995 and the year ended December 31, 1994. The pro forma financial information gives effect to the purchase of substantially all of the assets and the acquisition of certain liabilities of Harris, as described in the Partnership Admission Agreement dated June 22, 1995 and the amendment thereto dated September 27, 1995 (together, the "Agreement"). The pro forma Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1995 has been prepared as though the acquisition of Harris had taken place on June 30, 1995 and the pro forma Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and the year ended December 31, 1994 have been prepared as though the acquisition had taken place as of January 1, 1994. These pro forma financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of NEIC and Harris as described above. NEIC purchased substantially all of the assets and acquired certain liabilities of Harris for $175.0 million payable in 5,366,898 of newly issued L.P. units totaling $95.3 million and promissory notes due January 10, 1996 (the "Notes") in the aggregate amount of $79.7 million. The L.P. unit price of $17.75 was determined at market value under a formula as set forth in the Agreement. The Notes are secured by an $80.0 million letter of credit. Payment upon maturity is expected to be financed with a privately placed seven-year financing. Pursuant to the Agreement, NEIC expects to make a contingent payment on April 2, 1997, also in L.P. units, cash or a combination thereof as a purchase price adjustment based upon the performance of Harris' business in 1996. The minimum contingent payment is expected to approximate $35.0 million based upon Harris' projected 1995 qualifying revenues as defined in the Agreement. This estimated payment will be made in a combination of cash and L.P. units based on selection by the seller's partners. The pro forma financial information does not necessarily reflect the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition occurred on the assumed dates, nor is the pro forma financial information necessarily indicative of the results of the combined entities that may be achieved for any future period. 31 ITEM 7(B)(I) UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED BALANCE SHEET OF NEW ENGLAND INVESTMENT COMPANIES, L.P.

NEW ENGLAND INVESTMENT COMPANIES, L.P. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS Pro Forma Adjustments --------------------- (a) Certain pro forma adjustments have been made to Harris' historical balance sheet and statements of operations as follows: (i) to present Harris' limited partnership investments under the equity method of accounting (previously the partnerships did not allow Harris to be replaced as general partner and therefore the equity method was not available; the partnership agreements were amended to allow this result in July 1995), (ii) to reflect the purchase of substantially all of the assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of Harris at September 29, 1995, and (iii) to exclude certain non-recurring revenues. (b) The intangible asset of approximately $213.4 million arising from the acquisition of Harris represents the excess of the purchase price over the net tangible assets acquired. The intangible asset includes the initial purchase price of Harris of $175.0 million, the minimum estimated contingent payment of $35.0 million, described in (e) below, $4.9 million of acquisition related costs, less the net tangible assets acquired of $1.5 million. Amortization of the intangible asset is based on an estimated life of 15 years, pending the results of a valuation study which is in process. (c) L.P. units totaling $95.3 million or 5,366,898 L.P. units at $17.75 per L.P. unit were issued on September 29, 1995 based on the $175.0 million initial payment less the $79.7 million of promissory notes described in (d) below. The L.P. unit price of $17.75 was determined at market value under a formula as set forth in the Agreement. These L.P. units have been included in the calculation of pro forma earnings per unit. (d) Promissory notes totaling $79.7 million were issued by NEIC to certain Harris partners and mature in January 1996. At that time, the Notes are expected to be paid from the proceeds of a privately placed financing with a seven-year maturity. The pro forma statements of operations reflect an assumed interest expense at the all-in rate of 7.30% for the anticipated privately placed financing. (e) The minimum estimated contingent payment of $35.0 million, based upon the performance of Harris' business in 1996, has been recorded as deferred purchase consideration. Pro forma earnings per unit assumes that all the partners will elect to receive their 1997 contingent payment in L.P. units. Based on the closing unit price of $21.25 at September 29, 1995, an additional 1,647,000 L.P. units are presumed to be issued in 1997. (f) Deferred financing charges totaling $950,000 related to the anticipated privately placed financing, described in (d) above, have been recorded as a non-current asset and will be amortized using the level yield method over the seven-year term of the financing. (g) Harris' partners' capital of $1.5 million is eliminated in consolidation. (h) Compensation expense has been adjusted based on the terms of the Agreement. 35
