Item 4         OWNERSHIP:

     (a)  Amount Beneficially Owned:
     
     As of December 31, 1995:
     
     (i)  Bankers Trust Company, as Trustee for various
     trusts, and employee benefit plans, investment advisor
     (the  Bank ) was the beneficial owner of 3,620,135
     shares of common stock;
     
     (ii)  Bankers Trust International PLC, a wholly owned
     subsidiary of Bankers Trust Company was the beneficial
     owner of 35,200 shares of common stock;
     
     (iii)  BT Variable, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of
     Bankers Trust Company was the beneficial owner of
     27,000 shares of common stock;
     
     (iv) Bankers Trust Company was alsothe record owner of
     17,095,662 shares held by the Bank as Trustee of the
     Texas Instruments Inc. Employee Universal Profit
     Sharing Plan (the  Plan ) with respect to which the
     bank disclaims beneficial ownership.
     
      The Plan states that each Plan participant shall have
the right to direct the manner in which shares of common
stock shall be voted at all stockholders  meetings.  The
Department of Labor has expressed the view that, under
certain circumstances, ERISA may require the Trustee to vote
shares which are not allocated to participants  accounts and
unvoted shares.  Since, in the view of the Bank and Bankers
Trust New York Corporation, such voting power is merely a
residual power based upon the occurrence of an unlikely
contingency and is not a sole or shared power to vote the
securities, the Bank and Bankers Trust New York Corporation
hereby disclaim beneficial ownership of such securities.
