CUSIP NO. 903236107 SCHEDULE 13D Page 6 of 9 This Amendment No. 22 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on May 1, 1996 by Richard C. Blum & Associates, L.P., a California limited partnership ("RCBA L.P."); Richard C. Blum & Associates, Inc., a California corporation ("RCBA Inc."); Richard C. Blum, the Chairman and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc.; The Common Fund, a New York non-profit corporation; and certain other limited partnerships for which RCBA L.P. serves as general partner (collectively, the "Reporting Persons). This Schedule 13D relates to shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01, of URS Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The principal executive office and mailing address of the Issuer is 100 California Street, Suite 500, San Francisco, CA 94111-4529. The following amendments to Items 2 and 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby made. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Item 2. Identity and Background - -------------------------------- Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows: On May 11, 1998, one of the limited partnerships for which RCBA L.P. is the general partner, as part of the process of liquidating all of its assets upon expiration of the term of its limited partnership agreement, sold all of its shares of the Common Stock to two limited partnerships for which RCBA L.P. is the general partner and an investment advisory client for which RCBA L.P. has voting and investment discretion. To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the entities or persons identified in this Item 2 has, during the past five years, been convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer - --------------------------------------------- Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows: (a),(b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-Q, there were 14,877,774 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of February 27, 1998. Based on such information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report the following direct holdings of the Common Stock: 1,077,980 shares owned by The Common Fund, 996 shares owned by RCBA L.P., and 1,854,912 shares owned by RCBA, L.P.'s other limited partnerships and investment advisory client. Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by RCBA L.P. The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be members in a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 2,933,888 shares of the Common Stock which is CUSIP NO. 903236107 SCHEDULE 13D Page 7 of 9 19.7% of the outstanding Common Stock. However, The Common Fund expressly disclaims membership in such a group and disclaims beneficial ownership of securities owned by any other person. As the sole general partner of RCBA L.P., RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the securities over which RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power. As Chairman, director and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. In addition, Mr. Blum has sole beneficial ownership of 22,982 shares of the Common Stock (consisting of shares held directly, shares held as beneficiary of a trust and options currently exercisable). Although Mr. Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any of the other shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc. is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. (c) During the last 60 days, the following transactions in the Common Stock have been effected by the Reporting Persons: (i) on May 11, 1998, one of the limited partnerships for which RCBA L.P. is the general partner, as part of the process of liquidating all of its assets upon expiration of the term of its limited partnership agreement, sold all of its shares of Common Stock (508,265 shares) to two of RCBA L.P.'s other limited partnerships and one advisory client as follows: 403,546 shares at $15.58 per share and 104,719 shares at $16.75 per share; and (ii) on March 24, 1998, Mr. Blum was granted 1,695 shares of Common Stock upon his reelection to the Issuer's board of directors.
