Item 2.  Identity and Background.

Each of PMCLP and PMC, previously "filing persons,"
have no beneficial ownership of the subject
securities as a result of the July 1, 1997
dissolution of the Investment Entity advised by
them; accordingly, they are no longer filing
persons.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the
Issuer. (a) Each person or entity named in Item 2,
is the beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock as
set forth in the table below:

</TABLE>

(1) The table above sets forth information as of the
date of the filing of this amendment No. 5 and also
corrects the percentage positions erroneously
reported as a result of a clerical error in Item
5(a) of Amendment No. 4; the percentages provided on
the cover pages of Amendment No. 4 were correct as
of the date of the filing of that amendment.  The
percentages reported in this Amendment No. 5 and in
Amendment No. 4 are based on the same amount
outstanding.

(2) The shares and percentages shown for TMC in the
above table include all of the shares and
percentages in the above table shown for each of
TMLLC and TPLLC.

(b) TMC has sole power to vote, direct the voting,
dispose and direct the disposition of the shares
beneficially owned by TMLLC and TPLLC.  Mr.
Robertson, as controlling person of each of the
Filing Persons may, under SEC rules, be deemed to
beneficially own all the shares reported hereunder.
In addition, Mr. Robertson separately owns 0.2% of
the Common Stock as previously reported under
Section 16 (a).  Except to the extent he is deemed
to beneficially own the shares under SEC precedent,
Mr. Robertson disclaims beneficial ownership.

(c) TPLLC and TMC acquired beneficial ownership of
336,600 shares on July 1, 1997 as a result of
capital contributions in kind consisting in part of
the subject shares made by persons becoming limited
partners of Investment Entities advised by TPLLC and
TMC.  These persons obtained said shares pursuant to
the dissolution of the investment entity advised by
PMCLP and PMC.  No consideration changed hands as a
result of such contributions.
(d)  The Investment Entities have the right to
receive dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of
the shares of the Common Stock owned by them. Two of
the Investment Entities, The Jaguar Fund, N.V., a
Netherland Antilles corporation advised by TMLLC
("Jaguar") and Tiger, a New York partnership, whose
general partner is TPLLC each hold more than 5
percent of the class.
