P.O. Box 78, Toronto, Ontario, M5X 1G5, Canada.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
This statement is filed jointly by the Partnership, CLGI, Inc. ("CLGI")
and R. Theodore Ammon ("Mr. Ammon"). The Partnership is a limited partnership
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. CLGI, the sole general
partner of the Partnership, is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the
State of Delaware. The principal business of the Partnership is investment in
the Debentures. The principal business of CLGI is to serve as the general

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
On December 21, 2000, the Partnership purchased the Debentures for an
aggregate purchase price of $70,500,000. As of December 21, 2000, the Debentures
were convertible into 21,692,307 Common Shares at a rate of $3.25 per share,
subject to adjustment as described in the Debentures. Those Common Shares
represented (on December 21, 2000) 19.7% of the outstanding Common Shares
(assuming conversion in full of the Debentures). The source of funds for the
purchase of the Debentures was the purchase of partnership interests in the
Partnership by CLGI (its general partner) and the limited partners.
The Debentures were purchased by the Partnership pursuant to the
Debenture Purchase Agreement dated as of December 12, 2000 by and between the
Issuer and the Partnership. The Debenture Purchase Agreement and the Debentures
are attached hereto as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
The Partnership purchased the Debentures for investment purposes.
Pursuant to the Debenture Purchase Agreement, the Issuer caused Mr. Ammon to be
appointed as of December 21, 2000 as a member of the Board of Directors of the
Issuer for the current term of the Issuer's Board of Directors and the Issuer
also agreed to cause Mr. Ammon's nomination for election to the Board of
Directors at each subsequent meeting of the Issuer's shareholders to elect
directors. In addition, pursuant to the Debenture Purchase
<PAGE>
Agreement, the Issuer caused Alfred C. Eckert III, a managing member of the
general partner of certain limited partners of the Partnership, and Robert G.
Burton, a limited partner of the Partnership, to be appointed as of December 21,
2000 as additional members of the Issuer's Board of Directors for the current
term of the Issuer's Board of Directors and the Issuer also agreed to cause
their nominations for election to the Board of Directors at each subsequent
meeting of the Issuer's shareholders to elect directors. Pursuant to the
Debenture Purchase Agreement, Mr. Burton also became the Chief Executive Officer
of the Issuer concurrently with his appointment to the Issuer's Board of
Directors. In connection with the Partnership's purchase of the Debentures, two
additional independent directors were appointed to the Issuer's Board of
Directors.
As a director of the Issuer, Mr. Ammon will participate in meetings of
the Board of Directors of the Issuer and in the course of such participation may
from time to time participate in matters to develop or suggest plans or
proposals which relate to or would result in any of the actions or transactions
enumerated in Item 4, clauses (a)-(j), of Schedule 13D.
Other than as set forth in this item 4 and in items 5 and 6 of this
statement on Schedule 13D, the reporting persons do not have any plans or
proposals which relate to or would result in any of the actions or transactions
enumerated in Item 4, clauses (a) through (j), of Schedule 13D.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
The Partnership directly owns all the Debentures. The Partnership does
not own any Common Shares, but because the Debentures were (as of December 21,
2000) convertible into 21,692,307 Common Shares, the Partnership may be deemed
to beneficially own such Common Shares. Those Common Shares represent
approximately 19.7% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Issuer, based on a
total of 88,456,940 Common Shares outstanding as of December 21, 2000. The
Partnership may be deemed to have shared power to vote or direct the vote and
shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 21,692,307 Common Shares.
CLGI, as the general partner of the Partnership, and Mr. Ammon, as the
sole shareholder of CLGI, may be deemed to beneficially own the 21,692,307
Common Shares, or 19.7%, owned by the Partnership and to have shared power to
vote or direct the vote and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of
those Common Shares.
<PAGE>
The only transaction by the reporting persons in the Common Shares was
the purchase of the Debentures described in Item 3.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
The Partnership has entered into the Registration Rights Agreement,
dated as of December 21, 2000, between the Partnership and the Issuer, providing
for the registration or qualification of Common Shares issuable upon conversion
of the Debentures. The Partnership and CLGI have entered into the Standstill
Agreement, dated as of December 21, 2000, among the Partnership, CLGI and the
Issuer, providing for restrictions on additional purchases of securities of the
Issuer and other matters relating to control of the Issuer. The Partnership,
CLGI and certain limited partners of the Partnership have entered into the
Restricted Securities Agreement, dated as of December 12, 2000, providing for
transfer restrictions on the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the
Debentures and for certain "tag along" rights of the partners and rights of
first refusal (conditioned on a transferring limited partner first obtaining a
bona fide third party offer to purchase the transferring limited partner's
Common Shares). Also pursuant to the Restricted Securities Agreement, Chancery
Lane MIC, L.P., one of the limited partners of the Partnership, is entitled to
utilize one of the two demand registration rights provided to the Partnership
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. CLGI, the Class A Limited
Partners and Class B Limited Partners have entered into the Limited Partnership
Agreement of the Partnership, dated as of December 12, 2000, that provides,
among other things, for certain rights of the Class A Limited Partners to
require the Partnership to exchange Debentures or Common Shares for Class A
Limited Partnership interests and for the distribution among the partners of
Partnership assets. The Registration Rights Agreement, Standstill Agreement,
Restricted Securities Agreement and Limited Partnership Agreement are attached
hereto as exhibits (see Item 7).
