This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D is being filed to correct certain information contained in the Amended Schedule 13D as follows:

          Item 5 of the Amended Schedule 13D is hereby amended by amending and restating Items 5(a) and (e) as follows:

          (a)   As of July 13, 2000, Fir Tree Partners and Mr. Tannenbaum are beneficial owners of 1,522,820 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer or 4.7% of the shares outstanding. The 1,522,820 shares described above are beneficially owned by Fir Tree Partners and Mr. Tannenbaum for the account of the Fir Tree Value Fund, Fir Tree Institutional or Fir Tree LDC, as the case may be.
