RCBA I was a California limited partnership, the sole general
partner of which was RCBA, Inc. In connection with its
dissolution and liquidation in December 1993, RCBA I
distributed all its shares in the Issuer to its partners,
including RCBA Inc.
To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the
entities or persons identified in this Item 2 has, during the
past five years, been convicted of any criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), nor
been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result
of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or
final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities
laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

<PAGE>
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The source of funds for the purchases of Stock is the working
capital of the Reporting Persons.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Reporting Persons previously acquired the Stock for
investment purposes. Depending on market conditions and
other factors, the Reporting Persons may purchase additional
shares of the Stock in the open market or in private
transactions. Alternatively, depending on market conditions
and other factors, they may, at some future time, sell all or
some of their shares of the Stock.
Richard C. Blum is a director of the Issuer, and RCBA Inc.
receives consulting fees from the Issuer. Except as set
forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no present
plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of
the actions set forth in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4,
although the Reporting Persons may in the future take actions
that would have such an effect.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) & (b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-Q,
7,005,047 shares of the Stock were outstanding as of
August 26, 1994. The following Reporting Persons have the
following direct holdings in the Stock or in Stock obtainable
upon the exercise of warrants ("Warrant Shares"):
Warrant
Shares of Shares Percentage
Name Stock Owned Owned Owned
BK 104,719 403,546 6.9%
BK II 117,869 403,546 7.0%
BK III 326,238 115,299 6.2%
The Common Fund 1,077,980 -0- 15.4%
RCBA Inc. 996 -0- Less than 1 %
Total 1,627,802 922,391 32.2%
Because voting and investment decisions concerning the above
shares are made by RCBA Inc., the Reporting Persons
identified in the table above affirm membership in a group.
Therefore, each such Reporting Person is deemed to have
beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 2,550,193 shares of
the Stock, which is 32.2% of the outstanding Stock
-13-
<PAGE>
(calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(l)(i) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
As Chairman, director and a substantial shareholder of RCBA
Inc., Richard C. Blum might be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. In
addition, Mr. Blum has sole beneficial ownership of 16,841
shares of the Stock (consisting of shares held directly,
shares held as beneficiary of a trust and options currently
exercisable or exercisable within 60 days). If Mr. Blum were
deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities
beneficially owned by RCBA Inc., he would own beneficially an
aggregate of 2,567,034 shares, which is 32.4% of the Stock.
Although Mr. Blum is joining in this Amendment as a Reporting
Person, the filing of this Amendment shall not be construed
as an admission that he, or any of the other shareholders,
directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc. is, for any
purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that
are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc.
(c) During the last 60 days, the following dispositions have
been made: On October 31, 1994, BK III distributed an
aggregate of 77,100 shares of the Stock to two of its limited
partners in connection with such limited partners' withdrawal
from the partnership. (Since the filing of the last
amendment to this Schedule 13D, RCBA I dissolved and
liquidated in December 1993, and in connection therewith,
distributed to its partners all 47,870 shares of the Stock it
previously owned.)
(d) and (e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or
Relationships with Respect to Securities of the
Issuer
None.
Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits
