SCHEDULE 13D CUSIP NO. 896187101 PAGE 5 OF 9 PAGES ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER: This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 2") should be read in conjunction with the Schedule 13D dated October 29, 1997 ("Schedule 13D") and Amendment No. 1 dated April 24, 1998 each as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by DDJ Capital Management, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company, and certain affiliates. This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule 13D and Amendment No. 1 only with respect to those items listed below. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto on the Schedule 13D or Amendment No. 1. This filing of this Amendment No. 2 is not, and should not be deemed to be, an admission that the Schedule 13D or any Amendment thereto is required to be filed. This statement relates to common stock, no par value per share (the "Shares") of Trikon Technologies, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"). The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 9255 Deering Avenue, Chatsworth, California 91311. ITEM 3. SOURCES AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION: Item 3 is deleted in its entirety and amended as follows: B III Capital Partners, L.P. (the "Fund") was entitled to receive, as part of the exchange offer made by the Company, effective May 14, 1998, $17,535,000 principal amount of the Company's 7 1/8% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2001 (the "Notes") the following: (i) 4,839,739 Shares; (ii) 609,913 shares of Series H Preferred Stock (the "Series H Stock") and (iii) 6,250 shares of Series I Preferred Stock (the "Series I Stock"). Pursuant to the terms of the Series H Stock, each share of Series H Stock shall automatically convert into 1.4285 Shares if and when the closing price of the Common Stock is at a price in excess of $7.00 for a period of 30 consecutive trading days. SCHEDULE 13D CUSIP NO. 896187101 PAGE 6 OF 9 PAGES Pursuant to the terms of the Series I Stock, each share of Series I Stock shall automatically convert into 1,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Conversion Ratio") immediately upon the effectiveness of an amendment to its Charter that would increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and decrease the number of authorized shares of preferred stock (the "Charter Amendment"). The Conversion Ratio shall be decreased by one percent for each six-month period that elapses after the date of the first issuance of the Series I Stock prior to the approval of the Charter Amendment. Because the conversion of the Series H Stock and the Series I Stock is automatic, the number of Shares reported herein does not include the number of Shares that would be received upon the conversion of the Series H Stock or the Series I Stock. Other than as set forth on the attached Schedule B or as otherwise set forth herein, no purchases and/or sales have occurred within the last sixty days of this filing. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION: The last paragraph in Item 4 is amended by adding to the last sentence of the paragraph the following: In June, 1998, the Company appointed Stephen Wertheimer to its Board of Directors in accordance with the Management Rights Letter described herein. Mr. Wertheimer is not affiliated with the Fund. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF ISSUER: Paragraph (a) in Item 5 is deleted and amended as follows: (a) The Fund beneficially owns, and DDJ III and DDJ beneficially own as general partner and investment manager, respectively, of the Fund 4,839,739 Shares, or approximately 9.7% of the outstanding Shares of the Company. Neither DDJ nor any of the DDJ Affiliates and, to the best knowledge of DDJ and the DDJ Affiliates, none of the persons named in Schedule A, beneficially own any other Shares. ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS: None.
