     This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 28, 2003 (the “Schedule 14D-9”) by Metric Partners Growth Suite Investors, L.P., a California Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) relating to the tender offer by Kenneth E. Nelson (the “Offeror”) to purchase 30,000 Units of the Partnership, at $86.00 for each Unit, net to the seller in cash, less the amounts of any distributions declared or paid from any source by the Partnership with respect to the Units after January 1, 2003 (without regard to the record date), plus a release of certain litigation claims, upon the terms and conditions set forth in an Offer to Purchase and related Agreement of Sale and Assignment which were attached as Exhibits to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO dated May 14, 2003, as such Schedule TO was amended by Amendment No. 1 dated June 25, 2003 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2003 (as amended, the “Schedule TO”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 14D-9.

Item 8. Additional Information.

     Item 8 is hereby amended by amending and restating the section under the heading “Tender Offer Litigation” as follows:

     Tender Offer Litigation

     In light of the inaccuracies and material misstatements and omissions in the Offer documents and in the Solicitation Statement and the inherent unfairness of the proposed Offer, the Partnership filed an action on May 28, 2003 in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, in San Francisco, California against the Offeror requesting the Court to enjoin the consent solicitation and the Offer under the present terms until such time as the Offeror has revised his disclosure and the structure of the Offer to be not misleading and not unfair to the Unit holders. A copy of the complaint filed in the action is filed as Exhibit (a)(5) and is incorporated herein by this reference. On June 3, 2003 the Partnership filed an ex parte application for a temporary restraining order and order to show cause why a preliminary injunction should not issue with respect to the Offer and the consent solicitation. A copy of the ex parte application and the related Memorandum of Points and Authorities in support of the ex parte application are filed as Exhibits (a)(6) and (a) (7), respectively, and are incorporated herein by this reference. A hearing on the motion was held by the Court on June 20, 2003. At the hearing the Court found that the Offer and the consent solicitations violated the provisions of the Limited Partnership Agreement that required a written request of Unit holders holding at least 10 percent of the Units to call for a vote of the Unit holders. On June 27, 2003 the Court issued a formal order enjoining the Offeror from taking any further action in support of his Offer and consent solicitations, except that the Offeror is permitted to attempt to convene a vote of Limited Partners in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement. A copy of the Court order is filed as Exhibit (a)(8) and is incorporated herein by this reference.
