                                       to
                            Statement on Schedule 13D
                             Pursuant to Rule 13d-1
                                    under the
                   Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended


The undersigned hereby amend Items 3 through 5 of the Statement on Schedule 13D
filed on their behalf for the event dated December 7, 1998, with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in such
previously filed Statement on Schedule 13D.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is amended by adding the following after the first paragraph:

         The purchase price for $31,500,000 aggregate principal amount of
         Debentures acquired by Charter URS was $31,500,000. These funds were
         obtained by Charter URS from the partnership funds of CEP III, which
         are obtained by CEP III through the capital contributions of its
         partners.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is amended by adding the following as the third paragraph:

         On March 16, 1999, Charter URS purchased an additional $31,500,000 in
         aggregate principal amount of Debentures pursuant to the terms of the
         Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of the Investors Agreement, the
         Issuer increased the size of its Board from ten to eleven members and
         Charter URS nominated an additional director to the Issuer's Board.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is amended in its entirety by replacing the first and second paragraph
with the following:

         Charter URS acquired $43,500,000 in aggregate principal amount of
         Debentures on December 7, 1998. Charter URS acquired an additional
         $232,000 in aggregate principal amount of Debentures on December 31,
         1998 in connection with a quarterly pay-in-kind dividend payment. On
         March 16, 1999 Charter URS acquired an additional $31,500,000 in
         aggregate principal amount of Debentures pursuant to the terms of the
         Purchase Agreement. The Debentures are convertible at any time until
         their expiration or earlier redemption into Common Stock at a
         conversion price of $15.00 per share. Each of Charter URS and CEP III
         may be deemed to beneficially own 5,015,466.667 shares of Common Stock
         representing 22.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common
         Stock.

         Each of Charter URS and CEP III have shared voting power and shared
         dispositive power over the 5,015,466.667 shares of Common Stock.
