AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") is
being filed on behalf of Blavin & Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("BCI"), and Mr. Paul W. Blavin, the principal of BCI, as an amendment to
the initial statement on Schedule 13D, relating to shares of Class A Common
Stock of Riscorp, Inc. (the "Issuer"), as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 27, 1998 (the "Initial Schedule 13D").
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D relates to shares of Class A
Common Stock of the Issuer purchased by BCI for the account of (i) PWB
Value Partners, L.P. ("PWB"), of which BCI is the general partner, and (ii)
two institutional clients for which BCI acts as investment advisor
(collectively, the "Clients"). The Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended
and supplemented as follows:
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS
Item 3 of the Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:
As of April 9, 1998, BCI had invested (i) $1,637,537.93 in shares
of Class A Common Stock through PWB and (ii) $902,166.18 and $386,673.88 in
shares of Class A Common through each of the Clients, all as described in
Item 5 below. The source of these funds was the working capital of each of
PWB and the Clients, as the case may be.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Item 5 of the Initial Schedule 13D is hereby amended by amending and
restating Items 5(a) and (c) as follows:
(a) As of April 9, 1998, BCI and Mr. Blavin are beneficial
owners of 1,340,500 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer or 10.70%
of the shares outstanding. The 1,340,500 shares described above are
beneficially owned by BCI and Mr. Blavin for the account of PWB and each of
the Clients, as the case may be.
The number of shares beneficially owned by BCI and Mr. Blavin and
the percentage of outstanding shares represented thereby have been computed
in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Act. The percentage of beneficial
ownership of BCI and Mr. Blavin on April 9, 1998 is based on 12,533,671
outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as of February 27, 1998 as
reported in the Issuer's Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 27,
1998.
(c) The transactions in the Issuer's securities by BCI during the
period of March 28, 1998 to April 9, 1998 are listed as Annex A attached
hereto and made apart hereof.
