               On November 10, 1986, Transit signed a demand note payable             
          to LTI for $43.8 million.  Also on that day, the note was                   
          assigned to LTL, then to Transit, then to LIL, and then to LIIBV.           
          Haworth and Cairns signed each assignment.  The $43.8 million was           
          incorporated into a loan agreement dated "as of September 1,                
          1986".                                                                      
               Transit acquired stock and assets of 44 companies in the               
          transportation industry for $50,744,478 in the year ending August           
          1986, $20,736,304 in the year ending August 1987, and $71,573,421           
          in the year ending August 1988.  Transit used $24,798,393 from              
          LIIBV for interest reinvestment loans.                                      
                   e.    Advances to LWSI    LWSI used advances from LIIBV            
                         as follows:15  $349,812,613 to buy GSX; $6.4                 
                         million to repay RBC loans; $60.9 million to                 
                         repurchase LII stock; and $43,553,907 to pay                 
                         interest to LIIBV (interest reinvestment loans).             




               15 LWSI transferred $29 million to its affiliate, Societe              
          Sanitaire, to buy preferred stock in Travelways, Ltd.  However,             
          it is not clear whether it used the $29 million it borrowed for             
          that purpose.
