Subject: Filing questions

With the changeswith respect to unincorporated entities, I have run into a couple of smallquestions in my completing the form.

First, lookingat 3(b)(iii) - do I need to include the dollar value of the assets held by anunincorporated entity? I ask because this 3(b) clearly requires a dollar amountand this section doesn't appear to. (MV comment - NO)

Next, looking atitem 6(a) and (c) - if the filing party is an unincorporated entity, is it requiredto complete this section (to the extent it applies)? I ask because it is ourrecollection that item 6 was not be completed by unincorporated entitiesbecause the acquisition of unincorporated interests was treated as an assetacquisition. I am inclined to believe that unincorporated entities now aresubject to item 6, to the extent applicable, given the recent changes, but Iseek confirmation. (MV comment - YES)
