          of the Class B Stock) shares representing approximately 80% of the
          voting power of the outstanding common equity securities of the
          Company.

corporation (the "Company"). The Report on Schedule 13D originally filed by

ITEM 4.   PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
          ----------------------

          Item 4 of the TCI Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by
adding the following information thereto:

          On August 24, 1995, Gerald Hogan resigned as Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  In accordance with the By-Laws of the
Company, the Board of Directors filled the vacancy created by Mr. Hogan's
resignation by electing Mr. Barry Diller as a member of the Board of Directors.
Additionally, the Board of Directors increased the size of the Board from seven
to nine directors and filled the vacancies resulting from such increase by
electing John C. Malone, the President and Chief Executive Officer of TCI, and
Peter R. Barton, an Executive Vice President of TCI, to the Board of Directors
of the Company.  With the election of Messrs. Malone and Barton to the Board of
Directors, four out of nine directors of the Company are also officers of TCI or
its subsidiaries.  There are no agreements, arrangements or understandings
between the Reporting Person and Mr. Diller regarding (i) his election to or
service as a member of the Board of Directors (except as disclosed in Item 4), 
(ii) the ownership or voting of the equity securities of the Company owned by
the Reporting Person or (iii) otherwise relating in any way to the business and
affairs of the Company generally.

          The Reporting Person intends to continuously review its investment in
the Company and may in the future determine to acquire additional securities of
the Company, through open market purchases or otherwise, and may determine to
dispose of all or a portion

                               Page 3 of 5 pages

 
of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by it from time to time.  In
reaching any conclusion as to its future course of action, the Reporting Person
will take into consideration various factors, such as the Company's business and
prospects, other developments concerning the Company generally, other business
opportunities available to the Reporting Person, developments with respect to
the business of the Reporting Person, and general industry, economic and stock
market conditions, including, but not limited to, the market price of the Common
Stock of the Company.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Reporting
Person reserves the right, depending on other relevant factors, to acquire
additional shares of Common Stock of the Company in open market or privately
negotiated transactions, to dispose of all or a portion of its holdings of
Company Securities or to change its intention with respect to any or all of the
matters referred to in this Item.
