     This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D and the first,
second, third and fourth amendments as filed with the Commission on February 9,
1998, November 27, 1996, June 20, 2000, July 3, 2000 and July 28, 2000,
respectively, by Carlyle Partners II, L.P., Carlyle SBC Partners II, L.P.
(formerly Carlyle Partners III, L.P.), Carlyle International Partners II, L.P.,
Carlyle International Partners III, L.P., C/S International Partners, Carlyle
Investment Group, L.P., Carlyle-IT Partners, L.P., Carlyle-IT International
Partners, L.P., Carlyle-IT Partners II, L.P., TC Group, L.L.C. (d/b/a The
Carlyle Group), TCG Holdings, L.L.C. and Carlyle Investment Management, L.L.C.
(the "Reporting Persons") to amend and restate Item 4 and Item 5.

     Terms used but not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to such term in
the Schedule 13D, Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3 or Amendment
No. 4 to the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

     The acquisition of the Securities was consummated by the Reporting Persons
as a long-term strategic investment in the Company. The acquisition by the
Purchasers of the Securities from the Company was consummated on November 20,
1996. The aggregate consideration paid by CPII was $11,170,495. The aggregate
consideration paid by CPIII was $509,863. The aggregate consideration paid by
CIPII was $9,429,060. The aggregate consideration paid by CIPIII was $508,039.
The aggregate consideration paid by C/SIP was $2,122,999. The aggregate
consideration paid by CIG was $11,721. The aggregate consideration paid by CIT
was $5,915,198. The aggregate consideration paid by CITI was $14,832,625. The
aggregate consideration paid by CITII was $500,000. On November 20, 1996, CIM
acquired, on behalf of SBA from CIT, securities for an aggregate consideration
of $4,692,147.

     All Securities held by the Reporting Persons are held by the Reporting
Persons for investment purposes. Each Reporting Person may, subject to the
continuing evaluation of the factors discussed herein, acquire from time to time
additional securities (including shares of Common Stock) of the Company in the
open market or in privately negotiated transactions, by exchange offer or
otherwise. On June 13, 2000, the Company announced that the Reporting Persons
have been authorized by the Board of Directors to purchase up to one million
additional shares of the Company's common stock in the open market. The timing
of the purchases will be based on stock price, market and other conditions and
may be discontinued at any time. Between June 20, 2000 and August 2, 2000, the
Reporting Persons have repurchased 1,135,600 shares of Common Stock of the
Company. The reporting persons have informed the Company that the Reporting
Persons may continue to acquire, from time to time, additional securities
(including shares of Common Stock) of the Company in the open market or in
privately negotiated transactions, by exchange offer or otherwise. The decision
to make any such purchase will be subject to a number of factors, including the
then current market prices. The Reporting Persons are under no obligation to
make further purchases and may choose to discontinue purchases at any time.

     Depending on the factors discussed herein, each Reporting Person may, from
time to time, retain or sell all or a portion of its holdings of the Securities
in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including, by way of
distribution of some or all of the Securities to their partners or members, as
applicable, the conversion of Preferred Stock into Common Stock or the exercise
of Warrants. Each Reporting Person may also have discussions with management
regarding methods of increasing sales, cash flow and profitability. Any actions
that any Reporting Person might undertake will be dependent upon such person's
review of numerous factors, including, among other things, the availability of
Securities of the Company (including Common Stock) for purchase and the price
levels of such shares; general market and economic conditions; ongoing
evaluation of the Company's business operations and prospects; the relative
attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities; the actions
of the management and the Board of Directors of the Company; and other future
developments.

     The Purchasers acquired 45,000 shares of newly issued Preferred Stock which
are convertible into Common Stock. The Purchasers also received immediately
exercisable Warrants to purchase 5,000,000 additional shares of Common Stock.
The terms and conditions for the conversion of the Preferred Stock are set forth
in the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Relative, Participating,
Optional and Other Special Rights and Qualifications, Limitations and
Restrictions Thereof of Cumulative Convertible Participating Preferred Stock of
the Company, comprising a portion of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation.
The acquisition was effected pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated
August 28, 1996 by and between the Company and certain Purchasers identified
therein (attached as Exhibit 2 to the original Schedule 13D), as amended by that
certain Amendment No. 1 to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated November 20,
1996 attached as Exhibit 3 to the original Schedule 13D (as amended, the
"Securities Purchase Agreement") and the terms and conditions for the exercise
of the Warrants are set forth in the Warrant Agreement dated November 20, 1996
(the "Warrant Agreement") by and between the Company and certain Purchasers
identified therein and attached as Exhibit 4 to the original Schedule 13D.

     For five years after consummation of the transaction, and, as long as the
Purchasers and their affiliates continue to hold 20% of the aggregate voting
power of the Company, the holders of the Preferred Stock, voting as a separate
class, are entitled to elect a majority of the Company's Board of Directors. The
Company's Board consists of ten directors, five of whom are elected by the
holders of the Preferred Shares and five of whom are elected by the holders of
the Common Stock. At the end of the five-year period, and, as long as the
Purchasers and their affiliates continue to hold 20% of the aggregate voting
power of the Company, the holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to
elect the largest number of directors which is a minority of the directors of
the Company. In addition to their right to elect directors, holders of Preferred
Stock are entitled to vote on all matters voted on by holders of Common Stock,
voting together with the Common Stock as a single class. With respect to such
votes, each share of Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to cast
the number of votes equal to the number of votes which could be cast in such
vote by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share
of Preferred Stock is convertible on the date of such vote.

     The Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative annual dividends, except that
no dividends will be payable in the first year. Thereafter, dividends were
payable quarterly in kind for one year at the rate of 3% per annum and in cash
thereafter at the rate of 6% per annum. In addition, the Preferred Stock has the
right to participate in any dividends paid with respect to the Common Stock, on
the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock into which it may be
converted. During 1998, the following Reporting Persons each received shares of
Preferred Stock as a dividend in kind on the shares of Preferred Stock then held
as follows: CPII, 337 shares (convertible into approximately 44,399 shares of
Common Stock); CPIII, 12 shares (convertible into approximately 1,581 shares of
Common Stock), CIPII, 198 shares (convertible into approximately 26,086 shares
of Common Stock); CIPIII, 8 shares (convertible into approximately 1,054 shares
of Common Stock); C/SIP, 44 shares (convertible into approximately 5,797 shares
of Common Stock); CIT, 36 shares (convertible into approximately 4,743 shares of
Common Stock); CITI, 312 shares (convertible into approximately 41,106 shares of
Common Stock); CITII, 8 shares (convertible into approximately 1,054 shares of
Common Stock); and CIM 140 shares (convertible into approximately 18,445 shares
of Common Stock).

     The transaction documents contain a requirement for approval by a majority
of the directors not elected by the holders of the Preferred Stock for any
acquisition of additional shares of capital stock of the Company by TC Group or
its affiliates if such acquisition would result in TC Group or its affiliates
holding 75% or more of the general voting power of the Company.

     Pursuant to the Agreement Among Partnerships (CP II) dated on or about
November 20, 1996 (the "CPII Agreement") and attached to the original 13D as
Exhibit 5, by and among certain Purchasers identified therein, such Purchasers
agree that CPII shall be entitled to designate as nominee for election to the
Company's Board of Directors one director that the Purchasers are entitled to
elect as holders of the Company's Preferred Stock and the Purchasers further
agreed to elect such person to the Company's Board of Directors. Pursuant to the
Agreement Among Partnerships (CP III) dated on or about November 20, 1996 (the
"CPIII Agreement") and attached to the original 13D as Exhibit 6, by and among
certain Purchasers identified therein, such Purchasers agree that CPIII shall be
entitled to designate as nominee for election to the Company's Board of
Directors one director that the Purchasers are entitled to elect as holders of
the Company's Preferred Stock and the Purchasers further agreed to elect such
person to the Company's Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Agreement Among
Partnerships (CITP) dated on or about November 20, 1996 (the "CIT Agreement" and
together with the CPII Agreement and the CPIII Agreement the "Agreements Among
Partnerships") and attached to the original 13D as Exhibit 7, by and among
certain Purchasers identified therein, such Purchasers agree that CIT shall be
entitled to designate as nominee for election to the Company's Board of
Directors one director that the Purchasers are entitled to elect as holders of
the Company's voting stock and the Purchasers further agreed to elect such
person to the Company's Board of Directors.

     Although the foregoing reflects activities presently contemplated by each
Reporting Person with respect to the Company, the foregoing is subject to change
at any time.

     Other than as described above, the Reporting Persons have no present plans
or proposals which relate to or would result in: (i) the acquisition by any
person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities
of the Company; (ii) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;
(iii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the present Board or management of the
Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (v) any material
change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (vi) any
other material change in the Company's business or corporate structure; (vii)
changes in the Company's certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other actions
which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any persons;
(viii) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a
national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(ix) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (x) any action similar to those enumerated
above.
