Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
======   ====================================  

         Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as
         follows.        

         (a)   Number of Shares Beneficially Owned by Persons Filing This
               ---------------------------------------------------------- 
               Statement.
               ----------

               Echelon  is a member of  Lodestone  Capital,  which is the record
               holder  of  206,600  shares of Common  Stock.  Echelon  is also a
               member of  Lodestone  Partners,  which is in turn the  manager of
               Lodestone  Capital.  Lodestone  Partners is managed by a Board of
               Managers  composed of John Ward  Rotter and  Michael  Fitzsimmons
               ("Fitzsimmons"),  who is the other member of Lodestone  Partners.
               Pursuant to the Lodestone  Partners  Operating  Agreement between
               Echelon and  Fitzsimmons,  Fitzsimmons has sole investment  power
               with  respect  to  the  investments  of  Lodestone  Capital.  The
               Operating Agreement is, however,  silent on the subject of voting
               power  with  respect to  securities  held by  Lodestone  Capital.
               Therefore,  through  John Ward  Rotter,  Echelon may be deemed to
               share voting power with respect to  securities  held by Lodestone
               Capital and,  thus, to be the  beneficial  owner of the shares of
               Common  Stock  held  of  record  by  Lodestone  Capital.  Echelon
               disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock held
               of  record by  Lodestone  Capital,  except  to the  extent of its
               equity interest in Lodestone Capital.


               Bradley N. Rotter, Alan B. Perper and John Ward Rotter constitute
               all of the members of Echelon  and, as such,  may be deemed to be
               the  beneficial  owners of the  shares of  Common  Stock  held of
               record by Lodestone Capital.  Alan B. Perper and John Ward Rotter
               disclaim beneficial  ownership of the shares of Common Stock held
               of record by  Lodestone  Capital,  except to the  extent of their
               respective  equity interests in Echelon and Echelon's  respective
               equity   interest  in  Lodestone   Capital.   Bradley  N.  Rotter
               acknowledges beneficial ownership of approximately 137,733 shares
               of the Common  Stock held of record by Lodestone  Capital,  which
               are  attributable to the equity interest in Lodestone  Capital of
               the Bradley N. Rotter  Self-Employed  Pension Plan and Trust, but
               otherwise disclaims  beneficial ownership of the shares of Common
               Stock held of record by Lodestone  Capital,  except to the extent
               of his  respective  equity  interest  in  Echelon  and  Echelon's
               respective  equity  interest  in  Lodestone  Capital.  Bradley N.
               Rotter is the record holder of 873,578 shares of Common Stock and
               holds a stock  option for 10,000  shares,  of which 2,000  shares
               vested on  November  17,  1998.  John Ward  Rotter is the  record

               holder of 397,081 shares of Common Stock and holds a stock option
               for 10,000  shares,  of which 2,000 shares vested on November 17,
               1998.  John Ward  Rotter may also be deemed to be the  beneficial
               owner of shares of Common  Stock  subject to stock  options  that
               were granted to his spouse  (a) one option for 20,000  shares, of
               which 4,000  shares  vested on February  14,  1997,  4,000 shares
               vested on February 14, 1998 and another 4,000 shares will vest on

               Partners,  however,  currently has only a  nonparticipating  (or

               owners  of the  shares  of  Common  Stock  held of  record by the
               Perper/Raiche  Trust,  but  each  of  them  disclaims  beneficial
               ownership  of  such  shares,   except  to  the  extent  of  their
               respective  beneficial  interests under the Perper/Raiche  Trust.
               Alan B. Perper also holds a stock  option for 10,000  shares,  of
               which 2,000 shares of common stock vested on November 17, 1998.
