CUSIP NO. 412693103 SCHEDULE 13D Page 7 of 11
This Amendment No. 4 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule
13D") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on
February 11, 1999 by Richard C. Blum & Associates, L.P., a California limited
partnership ("RCBA L.P."); Richard C. Blum & Associates, Inc., a California
corporation ("RCBA Inc."); RCBA GP, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability
company ("RCBA GP"); and Richard C. Blum, the Chairman and a substantial
shareholder of RCBA Inc. and a managing member of RCBA GP (collectively, and
together with RCBA Strategic Partners, L.P., the "Reporting Persons"). The
principal executive office and mailing address of the Issuer is 2939 Miller
Road, Decatur, Georgia 30035. The following amendments to the Schedule 13D
are hereby made. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2. Identity and Background
- --------------------------------
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
A cover page has been added to the Schedule 13D to reflect an increase in
direct ownership of the Common Stock by RCBA Strategic Partners, L.P.
("Strategic") to in excess of 5% of the outstanding Common Stock shares.
Strategic is a Delaware limited partnership whose principal business is
investing in securities and whose general partner is RCBA GP. Strategic is
referred to in previously filed Schedule 13D's as the limited partnership for
which RCBA GP serves as the general partner. Strategic's principal office is
909 Montgomery Street, Suite 400, San Francisco, CA 94133.
To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the entities or
persons identified in this Item 2 has, during the past five years, been
convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors), nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding 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 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
- ---------------------------------------------
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
(a),(b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-K dated December 31,
1998, there were 31,103,263 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of
March 12, 1999. Based on such information, after taking into account the
transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report direct
holdings as follows: (i) RCBA L.P. and RCBA Inc. report holdings of 1,959,250
shares of the Common Stock on behalf of the limited partnerships for which RCBA
L.P. serves as the general partner and RCBA L.P.'s investment advisory clients,
which represents 6.3% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (ii)
Strategic reports holdings of 1,818,800 shares of the Common Stock which
represents 5.8% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock; and (iii) Mr.
Blum reports the aggregate of these shares for a total
CUSIP NO. 412693103 SCHEDULE 13D Page 8 of 11
of 3,778,050 shares of the Common Stock, which represents 12.1% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock.
In addition, because RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power with respect to
274,700 shares that are legally owned by The Common Fund for the account of its
Equity Fund ("The Common Fund"), those shares are reported as beneficially
owned by RCBA L.P. The Common Fund is principally engaged in the business of
managing investments for educational institutions. The principal
administrative office of The Common Fund is located at 450 Post Road East,
Westport, Connecticut 06881-0909. The Common Fund disclaims membership in a
group with any of the Reporting Persons, and disclaims beneficial ownership of
any shares held by the Reporting Persons.
Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by
RCBA L.P and RCBA GP. The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be
members in a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to have
beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 4,052,750 shares of the Common
Stock, which is 13.0% of the outstanding Common Stock. As the sole general
partner of RCBA L.P., RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the
securities over which RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power. As Chairman
and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be deemed to
be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA Inc.
Additionally, Mr. Blum may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
securities over which RCBA GP has voting and investment power. Although Mr.
Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the filing of this
Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any of the other
shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc., or managing members
and members of RCBA GP, is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the
securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. or RCBA GP, except to the
extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
