                                  Introduction
                                  ------------

         This Schedule 13D  supplements and amends the Schedule 13D filed by BKK
Financial,  Inc.  ("BKK") on February  21, 1997.  BKK is the general  partner of
Ocean Ridge Investments,  Ltd., a Florida limited  partnership  ("Ocean Ridge"),
the sole  limited  partner  of which is Barbara  Nichols,  the wife of Mr. J. D.
Nichols.  Mr. Nichols is the Chairman of the Board of BKK, which is wholly owned
by Mr.  Nichols' wife and two majority age  daughters.  On January 31, 1998, BKK
transferred 2,087 limited  partnership  interests  ("Interests")  owned by it to
Ocean Ridge.  As a result of this transfer BKK does not own any Interests.  As a
result of the  transfer of  Interests  by BKK to Ocean  Ridge and Ocean  Ridge's
subsequent  purchases of an aggregate of 545 Interests between April 30 and June
30, 1998,  Ocean Ridge now owns 2,632 Interests.  The General Partner,  which is
also controlled by Mr. Nichols, owns five Interests.

         ORIG, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company ("ORIG"),  of which Mr.
Nichols is the managing member,  purchased 1,858 Interests pursuant to the Offer
on February 5, 1999. Thus,  affiliates of Mr. Nichols now beneficially own 4,495
Interests.  For purposes of this  Schedule,  Ocean Ridge,  the General  Partner,
ORIG,  Mr.  Nichols  and Brian F.  Lavin  constitute  a "group" by virtue of Mr.
Nichols'  ability to vote or dispose of these  4,495  Interests.  The  reporting
persons  under this  Schedule  are hereby  amending  the prior  filing by BKK to
reflect the beneficial ownership of Interests by affiliates of Mr. Nichols as of
the date hereof.

Commission  on Schedule  13E-4 by the  Partnership  and ORIG on October 14, 1998
(the  "Offer")  and funded its  purchases  from cash  contributions  made by its
members pursuant to a binding Capital Contribution  Agreement attached hereto as
Exhibit (a), which is


<PAGE>


CUSIP No. 62942E308                                                Page 11 of 15


hereby incorporated by reference.  Mr. Nichols contributed  approximately 90% of
the funds necessary for ORIG to purchase  Interests pursuant to the Offer and to
pay  ORIG's  proportionate  share  of the  expenses  of  the  Offer.  Mr.  Lavin
contributed  approximately  10% of the  funds  necessary  for  ORIG to  purchase
Interests  pursuant  to the Offer and to pay ORIG's  proportionate  share of the
expenses  of the  Offer.  The  members  of ORIG made  these  cash  contributions
immediately upon the expiration of the Offer.
     
     Neither the General Partner,  Mr. Nichols or Mr. Lavin,  individually,  nor
Ocean Ridge intends to purchase any Interests in this Offer.  Neither ORIG,  Mr.
Nichols nor Mr. Lavin  intends to borrow any of the funds  necessary for ORIG to
purchase  Interests  pursuant to the Offer.  Neither Ocean Ridge,  Mr.  Nichols,
Barbara Nichols, the General Partner nor ORIG has borrowed funds for the purpose
of acquiring Interests.

Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction.

         Each of the filers of this Schedule 13D has acquired its Interests with
an investment intent consistent with the Partnership's business plan.

         The purpose of the Offer is to provide  Limited  Partners who desire to
liquidate their  investment in the Partnership  with a method for doing so. With
the exception of isolated transactions,  no established secondary trading market
for the  Interests  exists and  transfers  of  Interests  are subject to certain
restrictions as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, including prior approval
of the General  Partner.  Interests that are tendered to the Partnership will be
retired,  although  the  Partnership  may issue  Interests  from time to time in
compliance with the  registration  requirements of federal and state  securities
laws or any exemptions  therefrom.  Interests that are tendered to the Affiliate
will be held by the Affiliate.  Neither the  Partnership nor the General Partner
has  plans to offer  for sale any  other  additional  Interests,  but they  each
reserve the right to do so in the future.

         (a) None of the reporting persons on this Schedule 13D has any plans or
proposals  that would  result in the  acquisition  by any  person of  additional
securities  of  the  Partnership,  or  the  disposition  of  securities  of  the
Partnership, other than Interests purchased by ORIG pursuant to the Offer.

         (b) None of the  reporting  persons on this  Schedule  has any plans or
proposals  that  relate  to  or  would  result  in  an  extraordinary  corporate
transaction,  such as a merger,  reorganization  or  liquidation  involving  the
Partnership.

         (c) None of the  reporting  persons on this  Schedule  has any plans or
proposals  that  relate to or would  result in a sale or  transfer of a material
amount of assets of the Partnership.

         (d) None of the  reporting  persons on this  Schedule  has any plans or
proposals  that relate to or would  result in any change in the  identity of the
General  Partner or in the  management of the  Partnership,  including,  but not
limited to, any plans or  proposals  to change the number or term of the General
Partner(s),  to fill any existing vacancy for the General Partner,  or to change
any material term of the management  agreement  between the General  Partner and
the Partnership.

         (e) The General Partner  anticipates  that the  Partnership  will pay a
distribution of $35-50 to non-tendering limited partners in the first quarter of
1999. Other than this anticipated distribution, none of the reporting persons on
this  Schedule has any plans or proposals  that relate to or would result in any
material  change  in  the  present   distribution   policy  or  indebtedness  or
capitalization of the Partnership.

         (f) None of the  reporting  persons on this  Schedule  has any plans or
proposals  that relate to or would  result in any other  material  change in the
Partnership's structure or business.

         (g) None of the  reporting  persons on this  Schedule  has any plans or
proposals  that  relate  to or would  result in any  change  in the  Partnership
Agreement  or other  actions that may impede the  acquisition  of control of the
Partnership by any person.

         (h)-(j) Items (h) through (j) of this Item 4 are not  applicable to the
Partnership  because  the  Interests  are not  listed on a  national  securities
exchange and are not quoted on an inter-dealer  quotation system of a registered
national  securities  association  and because the Offer is  conditioned  on the
Partnership  having no fewer than three  hundred  (300)  holders of record after
completion of the Offer.

Item 5.           Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         (a)  Reference is hereby made to the  Introduction  and cover pages 3-7
attached hereto, which are incorporated hereby by reference.

         As of  February 5, 1999,  the number of  outstanding  Interests  of the
Partnership is 33,397. For purposes of this Schedule 13D, Mr. Nichols, Mr. Lavin
and ORIG constitute the Offer Group. The number of Interests  beneficially owned
by the Offer Group is 1,858 Interests, or 5.6% of the outstanding Interests. The
total number of Interests  beneficially  owned by all reporting  persons on this
Schedule is 4,495, or 13.5% of the outstanding Interests.

         (b)  Reference is hereby made to the  Introduction  and cover pages 3-7
attached hereto, which are incorporated hereby by reference.

         (c) On February 5, 1999 ORIG  purchased  1,858  Interests  for $205 per
Interest  pursuant to the Offer.  Other than this  transaction,  no transactions
involving the Interests  were effected by any reporting  person on this Schedule
13D  during  the more  recent of the past 60 days or the most  recent  filing on
Schedule 13D.

         (d)      None.

         (e)      Not applicable.

Item 6.           Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships  With
                  Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

         The Partnership  Agreement,  contained in the Partnership's  prospectus
dated August 1, 1984,  grants the General  Partner  discretion to decide whether
the  Partnership or any of its affiliates  will purchase  Interests from time to
time  from  Limited  Partners.  The  Partnership,  however,  will  not  purchase
Interests,  if as a result,  the Limited  Partner would continue to be a Limited
Partner and would hold fewer than five (5) Interests.

         Mr. Nichols and Mr. Lavin have executed a binding Capital  Contribution
Agreement  which requires them to contribute  the capital  necessary to purchase
any and all Interests  purchased by ORIG pursuant to the Offer and to pay ORIG's
proportionate share of the expenses of the Offer. Mr. Nichols anticipates

contributing   approximately   90%  of  these  funds.   Mr.  Lavin   anticipates
contributing approximately 10% of these funds.

         On October  14,  1998,  the  Partnership  and ORIG  (collectively,  the
"Offerors")  jointly filed an Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 13E-4 to
purchase up to an  aggregate  of 1,200  Interests  pursuant  to the Offer.  This
Schedule 13E-4 was subsequently  amended on January 25, 1999 to remove ORIG as a
co-filer  and to extend  the  Offer.  ORIG  filed a Tender  Offer  Statement  on
Schedule 14D-1  simultaneously  with the filing by the  Partnership of Amendment
No. 1 to the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 13E-4.

         Other than these  agreements,  the filers of this  Schedule 13D are not
aware  of  any  other  contract,  arrangement,   understanding  or  relationship
relating,  directly or indirectly,  to any securities of the Issuer  (whether or
not legally  enforceable)  between ORIG, Mr. Nichols,  Mr. Lavin, Ocean Ridge or
the General Partner and any person or among themselves.
