     This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D and the first
amendment as filed with the Commission on February 9, 1998 and November 27,
1996, 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") (1) to revise Item 4 to provide that The Carlyle Group
has announced an intention of the Reporting Persons to purchase up to one
million shares of the Company's Common Stock in the open market in the manner
and to the extent described below, and (2) to reflect the receipt of the
Reporting Persons shares of Preferred Stock as a dividend in kind that was paid
on Preferred Stock during 1998.

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

          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

                                       14
<PAGE>

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).

                                      15
<PAGE>

          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.
