ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION. Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of December 31, 1999 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), among the Issuer, certain subsidiaries of the Issuer and the Partnership, a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 2 to the Original Schedule 13D, the Issuer and certain of its subsidiaries jointly and severally issued and sold to the Partnership a Secured Senior Note Due 2000 dated December 31, 1999, in the principal amount of $5,000,000 (the "Term A Note"), and a Secured Senior Note Due 2003 dated December 31, 1999, in the principal amount of $15,000,000 (the "Term B Note"). In addition, as part of the same transaction, the Issuer issued and sold to the Partnership a warrant to purchase 850,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Warrant" and, together with the Term A Note and the Term B Note, the "Initial Securities"). The Initial Securities were acquired by the Partnership for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000. Copies of the Term A Note, the Term B Note and the Warrant are attached as EXHIBIT 3, EXHIBIT 4 and EXHIBIT 5 to the Original Schedule 13D, respectively. The source of funds for the purchase of the Initial Securities was capital contributions made by the partners of the Partnership in the aggregate amount of $20,000,000, in response to a Call to Purchase Portfolio Securities dated December 1, 1999. The parties to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into a Second Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of August 17, 2000 (the "Second Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement"), a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 1 hereto. Under the Second Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement, at the request of the Issuer, (i) the Securities Purchase Agreement, as amended by a First Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of May 25, 2000, was further amended, (ii) the Term A Note was amended and restated pursuant to the terms of an Amended and Restated Secured Senior Note Due 2001 (as so amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Term A Note"), a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 2 hereto, and (iii) the Partnership waived certain of its rights and consented to certain transactions involving the Issuer and/or its subsidiaries. As partial consideration for the agreement of the Partnership to the foregoing matters, the Issuer issued to the Partnership an Amended and Restated Warrant to Purchase 850,000 Shares of Common Stock, a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 3 hereto, which amends and restates the Warrant (as so amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Warrant"). Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Warrant, among other things, the Warrant Purchase Price (as such term is defined in the Amended and Restated Warrant) was reduced from $5.00 to $1.6250 per share. For purposes of this Amendment, the term "Amended Securities" shall mean the Amended and Restated Term A Note and the Amended and Restated Warrant. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. The Partnership acquired the Initial Securities and the Amended Securities for investment purposes only. In connection with the acquisition by the Partnership of the Initial Securities, and pursuant to the terms of an Investor Rights Agreement dated as of December 31, 1999 (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), among the Issuer, the Principal Shareholders and the Partnership, a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 6 to the Original Schedule 13D, the Issuer granted certain management, investment monitoring and other rights to the Partnership. Among other rights, the Partnership may require the Issuer, upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement, to cause a representative designated by the Partnership (an "LLCP Representative") to be elected or appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer until the later to occur of (a) the 180th day after the effective date of such election or appointment and (b) the date that the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer at which directors are to be elected occurs. In addition, the Principal Shareholders have granted to the Partnership limited voting rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock owned by the Principal Shareholders, respectively. If, upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default, the Partnership exercises its right to require the Issuer to cause an LLCP Representative to be elected or appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, the Principal Page 9 of 14 Shareholders have agreed to vote (or cause to be voted) the shares of Common Stock owned by them in favor of such election or appointment for the requisite period. The Principal Shareholders have also granted to the Partnership certain co-sale rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock owned by them, respectively, as more fully described in the Investor Rights Agreement. While the Partnership did not acquire the Initial Securities or the Amended Securities with the purpose of changing or influencing control of the Issuer, such acquisition, after giving effect to the management, investment monitoring and other rights granted to the Partnership under the Investor Rights Agreement, may have the effect of changing or influencing control of the Issuer within the meaning of Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i). Other than as described above, none of the Reporting Persons presently has any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Special Instructions for Complying with Schedule 13D. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. (a) AMOUNT BENEFICIALLY OWNED BY EACH REPORTING PERSON AND PERCENT OF CLASS: Each Reporting Person is deemed to be the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3(a) of the Exchange Act) of 850,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Amended and Restated Warrant. In addition, each Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner, for the limited purposes described in Items 4 above and 6 below, of an additional 3,336,687 shares of Common Stock owned in the aggregate by the Principal Shareholders as of August 17, 2000, including (i) 3,273,414 shares owned by Desjardins, (ii) 45,649 shares owned by Townsend, (iii) 14,471 shares owned by Saunders and (iv) 3,153 shares owned by Forst. The number of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by each Principal Shareholder was represented by the Issuer to the Partnership under the Second Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement.

The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons constitutes approximately 6.9% of the outstanding shares of such class as of August 17, 2000. To the extent that a group exists as discussed in Item 2 above, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, including the shares of Common Stock owned by the Principal Shareholders, would constitute approximately 34.0% of the outstanding shares of such class as of August 17, 2000. Such percentages are based upon a total of 11,418,200 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of August 17, 2000, as represented by the Issuer to the Partnership under the Second Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement, and was calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i). Page 10 of 14 The Amended and Restated Warrant may be exercised at any time prior to December 31, 2006, with respect to all or any portion of the total number of shares of Common Stock purchasable thereunder.

By virtue of being the sole general partner of the Partnership, the General Partner may be deemed to have (i) sole and dispositive voting power with respect to no shares of Common Stock and (ii) shared voting and dispositive power with all other Reporting Persons with respect to 850,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, to the extent that a group exists as discussed in Item 2 above, in the limited circumstances described in Items 4 above and 6 below, the General Partner may be deemed to have shared voting power with all other Reporting Persons and the Principal Shareholders with respect to an additional 3,336,687 shares of Common Stock. By virtue of being the sole general partner of the General Partner, Capital Corp. may be deemed to have (i) sole and dispositive voting power with respect to no shares of Common Stock and (ii) shared voting and dispositive power with all other Reporting Persons with respect to 850,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, to the extent that a group exists as discussed in Item 2 above, in the limited circumstances described in Items 4 above and 6 below, Capital Corp. may be deemed to have shared voting power with all other Reporting Persons and the Principal Shareholders with respect to an additional 3,336,687 shares of Common Stock. By virtue of being the sole directors and shareholders, and executive officers, of Capital Corp., each of Mr. Levine and Ms. Leichtman may be deemed to have (i) sole and dispositive voting power with respect to no shares of Common Stock and (ii) shared voting and dispositive power with all other Reporting Persons with respect to 850,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, to the extent that a group exists as discussed in Item 2 above, in the limited circumstances described in Items 4 above and 6 below, each of Mr. Levine and Mr. Leichtman may be deemed to have shared voting power with all other Reporting Persons and the Principal Shareholders with respect to an additional 3,336,687 shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons have no pecuniary interest in, and disclaim beneficial ownership of, the 3,336,687 shares of Common Stock owned by the Principal Shareholders. See Items 4 above and 6 below. (c) OTHER TRANSACTIONS. Not Applicable. Page 11 of 14 (d) INTERESTS OF OTHER PERSONS: Not Applicable. (e) DATE UPON WHICH THE REPORTING PERSON CEASED TO BE THE BENEFICIAL OWNER OF MORE THAN FIVE PERCENT OF CLASS: Not Applicable. ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. The Partnership funded its purchase of the Initial Securities with capital contributions made by the partners of the Partnership in the aggregate amount of $20,000,000, in response to a Call to Purchase Portfolio Securities dated December 1, 1999. No funds were used by the Partnership to acquire the Amended Securities. On December 31, 1999, the Issuer issued and sold the Initial Securities to the Partnership. Copies of the Term A Note, the Term B Note and the Warrant are attached as EXHIBIT 3, EXHIBIT 4 and EXHIBIT 5 to the Original Schedule 13D, respectively, which describes more fully the payment and other terms thereof. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 6 to the Original Schedule 13D, the Issuer granted certain management,investment monitoring and other rights to the Partnership. Among other rights, the Partnership may require the Issuer, upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement, to cause a representative designated by the Partnership (an "LLCP Representative") to be elected or appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer until the later to occur of (a) the 180th day after the effective date of such election or appointment and (b) the date that the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer at which directors are to be elected occurs. In addition, the Principal Shareholders have granted to the Partnership limited voting rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock owned by the Principal Shareholders, respectively. If, upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default, the Partnership exercises its right to require the Issuer to cause an LLCP Representative to be elected or appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, the Principal Shareholders have agreed to vote (or cause to be voted) the shares of Common Stock owned by them in favor of such election or appointment for the requisite period. The Principal Shareholders have also granted to the Partnership certain co-sale rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock owned by them, respectively, as more fully described in the Investor Rights Agreement. Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of December 31, 1999 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), between the Issuer and the Partnership, the Partnership has been granted certain "demand" and "piggyback" registration rights with respect to the Page 12 of 14 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (including, but not limited to, the right to require the Issuer to register resales of such shares on a registration statement on Form S-3). Such registration rights are described more fully in the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached as EXHIBIT 7 to the Original Schedule 13D. The Issuer, the Principal Shareholders and the Partnership have entered into a First Amendment to Investor Rights Agreement, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT 8 to the Original Schedule 13D, pursuant to which the parties clarified that the Principal Shareholders have entered into the voting agreements set forth in Section 1.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement in their individual capacities, and not as representatives of the Issuer.
