hereby amended as follow.   All other items are unchanged from the initial

ITEM 4.  Purpose of the Transaction.

     The owners listed in Item 5 purchased the Stock of the Issuer for general
investment purposes.  The owners listed in Item 5 may acquire additional shares
of the Stock of the Issuer, based upon their respective investment decisions.
It is not contemplated that any of the acquisitions reported hereunder or any
future acquisitions will result in any change in the present management of the
Issuer.

The owners listed in Item 5 have no present plans or proposals which relate to
or would result in:

    (a)  an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
         reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its
         subsidiaries;

    (b)  a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer
         or any of its subsidiaries;

    (c)  any change in the present board of directors or management of the
         Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term
         of directors or fill any existing vacancies on the board;

    (d)  any material change in the present capitalization or dividend
         policy of the Issuer;

    (e)  any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate
         structure;

    (f)  changes in the Issuer's charter, by-laws or instruments
         corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
         acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;

    (g)  causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a
         national securities exchange or cease to be quoted in an inter-dealer
         quotation system of a registered national securities association;

    (h)  a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for
         termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the
         Securities Exchange Act; or

    (i)  any action similar to those enumerated above.

     The foregoing percentages assume that the Issuer has 5,650,833 shares of
Stock outstanding.

     All shares held in the name of family members or family trusts of the
Reporting Person are reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person
because those family members or trusts may seek investment advise or voting
advice of the Reporting Person.  All shares held in the name of the partnership
controlled by the Reporting Person are reported as beneficially owned by the
Reporting Person because, as the sole shareholder of the corporate general
partner of such partnership, the Reporting Person has voting and investment
power with respect to the shares owned by such partnership.  Except for Common
Stock held in the name of the Reporting Person, or in trust wherein the
Reporting Person is the trustee, or in the name of a partnership controlled by
the Reporting Person, there is no written document or agreement conferring the
right of the Reporting Person to acquire or dispose of the Stock or giving the
Reporting Person the right to vote such shares of Stock.

ACT, THE BENEFICIAL OWNER OF THE SECURITIES COVERED BY THIS STATEMENT.
