This Amended 13D is filed solely for the purpose of amending
Item 4, to read in its entirety as set forth below.  All other
items of the Form 13D/A previously  filed in July 2000 remain
as reported in that document.


Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

     The reporting persons (the "Group") have decided to work
together to take such steps as they may deem necessary or
helpful in the interests of the Company's shareholders, and,
in particular, the interests of Depositary Shareholders.
These steps include the solicitation of consents of the
Depositary shareholders to the removal of the present Preferred
Stock directors and their replacement by Messrs. Williams and
Dove.

     The Group does not plan to acquire additional securities
or dispose of securities presently owned. However, each
member of the Group reserves the right to acquire additional
securities or dispose of securities as market conditions may
warrant.

     The response to this Item 4 is applicable to and
incorporated by reference into the response of each reporting
person set forth below.


                         SIGNATURES

     After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge
and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this
statement is true, complete and correct.
