Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration The source of Mr. Ferre's funds are personal holdings and the various companies with which he is affiliated. Mr. Ferre has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to 1,079,924 shares of Common Stock through several different means. Mr. Ferre has indirect control over 3,800 shares through his control of Alfra Investment Corp., a Puerto Rico corporation which is 100% owned by Mr. Ferre's children. Mr. Ferre also has indirect control over 282,854 shares through the Ferre Investment Fund, Inc., a Puerto Rico corporation which is 100% owned by Mr. Ferre and his family (see Item 5(d)). Mr. Ferre also has indirect control with respect to 134,294 shares through his 25% ownership of South Management Corp., a Puerto Rico corporation. South Management Corp. is wholly owned by Mr. Luis A. Ferre (50%), Mrs. Rosario Ferre (25%) and Mr. Ferre (25%), who are also members of the Board of Directors of South Management Corp. Their ownership interests in South Management Corp. are the result of a ruling by the Puerto Rico Superior Court granting the ownership interests to the Board of Directors of South Management Corp. South Management Corp. owns a total of 537,174 shares of Common Stock. All of the preceding was previously disclosed by Mr. Ferre in a Schedule 13G filed February 16, 1999. Mr. Ferre's increased beneficial ownership in the Company is not a result of an acquisition by the above listed companies. Subsequently, in 1999 Mr. Ferre's beneficial ownership of the Company increased as a result of an increase in the Common Stock holdings of El Dia, Inc., a Puerto Rico corporation, and repurchases by the Issuer of its Common Stock. Mr. Ferre and his children own approximately 90% of the equity interest in El Dia, Inc. through their ownership interests in Ferre Investment Fund and Alfra Investment Corp. El Dia holds 658,976 shares of Common Stock. This is an increase of 278,320 shares from the 380,656 shares reported as beneficially owned through El Dia, Inc. in Mr. Ferre's Schedule 13G filed February 16, 1999. El Dia, Inc. purchased these additional shares on various dates for various prices. It purchased 18,320 shares on March 25, 1999 at a price of $33.14 per share, for a total of approximately $607,202. It purchased 160,000 shares on June 21, 1999 at a price of $33.00 per share, for a total of approximately $5,280,000. It purchased 100,000 shares on June 25, 1999 at a price of $33.25 per share, for a total of $3,325,000. The shares were purchased through a broker on the open market. The source of funds used by El Dia were available operating funds. No part of the purchase price was paid with borrowed funds. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction The securities were acquired solely for investment purposes. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer (a) Mr. Ferre beneficially owns in the aggregate 1,079,924 shares of Common Stock. This position represents 20.8% of all of the Common Stock outstanding. (b) Mr. Ferre has sole power to vote or to direct the vote of 1,079,924 shares of Common Stock, and has shared power to vote or to direct the vote of 0 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Ferre has sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 1,079,924 shares of Common Stock, and has shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 0 shares of Common Stock. See also Item 3. (c) Mr. Ferre has made no transactions with respect to the Common Stock since the last purchase described in Item 3 above. (d) As discussed in Item 3 above, Mr. Ferre has indirect beneficial ownership of 282,854 shares of Common Stock through his ownership interest in Ferre Investment Fund, Inc. ("FIF"). FIF has two classes of common stock, Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Under the terms of the classes of stock, except as required by law, the Class B common stock has all of the voting rights in FIF; however, holders of the Class A common stock may receive distributions on their shares (as may the holders of the Class B common stock). Mr. Ferre owns 85% of the Class B common stock. Alfra Investment Corp., which is 100% owned by Mr. Ferre's children, owns the Class A common stock. Because the Common Stock of the Company is the asset of FIF, any distributions made by the Company on its Common Stock that may eventually be distributed to stockholders of FIF would be distributed to the Class A and Class B common stock holders. Also as discussed in Item 3 above, Mr. Ferre has indirect control over the 658,976 shares of Common Stock through his ownership interest in El Dia, Inc. Mr. Ferre's ownership interest in El Dia is through his ownership interest in the Class B common stock of FIF. Therefore, as described above, to the extent any distributions by the Company are received by El Dia and distributed through distributions by El Dia, and received by FIF and distributed through distributions by FIF, such distributions would be made to the Class A and Class B common stock holders of FIF. (e) Not Applicable. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer See Item 3 and Item 5(d) above. Item 7.
