This Amendment No. 1, which is being filed pursuant to Rule
13d-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), amends the Schedule 13D, filed
November 24, 1993 (the "Schedule 13D"), of Cumberland Associates, a New York
limited partnership, and relates to the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share
(the "Common Stock" or the "Shares"), of Interlinq Software Corporation (the
"Company"), which has its principal executive offices at 11255 Kirkland Way,
Kirkland, Washington 98033. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms
used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such
terms in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:
This statement is being filed by Cumberland Associates.
Cumberland Associates is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the
State of New York, and is engaged in the business of managing, on a
discretionary basis, ten securities accounts, the principal one of which is
Cumberland Partners. The address of the principal business and office of
Cumberland Associates is 1114 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York
10036.
K. Tucker Andersen, Richard Reiss, Jr., Oscar S. Schafer,
Bruce G. Wilcox, Glenn Krevlin, Andrew Wallach and
<PAGE>
Eleanor Poppe are the general partners (the "General Partners") of Cumberland
Associates. The business address of each of the General Partners is the same
as that of Cumberland Associates. Each of the General Partners is a citizen of
the United States.
Neither Cumberland Associates nor any of the General
Partners have, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), nor has any
such person, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of
a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of
which any such person 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.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:
As of the date hereof, Cumberland Associates held and
beneficially owned 370,000 shares of Common Stock. The aggregate purchase
price of the Common Stock purchased by Cumberland Associates on behalf of
Cumberland Partners and the other managed accounts was $2,808,125. Of this
amount, Cumberland Associates invested approximately $2,468,750 on behalf of
Cumberland Partners and $339,375 on behalf of five of Cumberland Associates'
other account holders. The source of funds for the purchase of
<PAGE>
all such Common Stock of Cumberland Associates was a combination of investment
capital contributed by Cumberland Partners and the five other managed accounts
and margin borrowings through the margin accounts of the account holders
maintained with Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated.
By virtue of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, each of the
General Partners may be deemed the beneficial owner of all of the Common Stock
purchased by Cumberland Associates on behalf of Cumberland Partners and the
other managed accounts, and therefore each General Partner may be deemed to
have invested the aggregate amount of funds noted above. None of the General
Partners has independently invested any of his or her funds for the purpose of
purchasing the Common Stock.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby restated in its

interest in the Company. As of the date hereof, Cumberland Associates is
holding such Common Stock solely for investment and it has no present plans or
proposals with respect to any material change in the Company's business or
corporate structure or, generally, any other action referred to in
instructions (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the form of Schedule 13D. Depending
on market conditions and other factors, Cumberland Associates may continue
purchases of Common Stock or
<PAGE>
may sell or otherwise dispose of all or portions of such Common Stock, if such
sales and purchases would be desirable investments for the portfolios of its
accounts.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety to read as follows:
As of the date hereof, Cumberland Associates beneficially
