This Amendment No. 2 to the Statement on Schedule 13D, dated
August 26, 1997, as amended and restated by Amended and Restated Schedule 13D,
dated September 15, 1998 (as so amended and restated, the "Statement"), filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on behalf of Fourteen Hill Capital,
L.P., Fourteen Hill Management, LLC and Point West Capital Corporation
(collectively, the "Reporting Persons") with respect to the Common Stock, par
value $.015 (the "Stock"), of First Priority Group, Inc. (the "Issuer").
Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTIONS.
- ------ -----------------------
Fourteen Hill Capital, L.P. acquired the shares of Stock owned
by it for investment purposes because the Reporting Persons viewed the Stock as
an attractive investment opportunity at the time of acquisition. Since August
1997, the Issuer has incurred significant losses and recently the price of the
Stock has declined precipitously.
The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the
Issuer on a continuing basis and reserve the right to acquire additional shares
of Stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions or
otherwise, to maintain their holdings at current levels or to sell all or a
portion of their holdings in the open market or in privately negotiated
transactions or otherwise. Any such actions will depend upon, among other
things, the availability of shares of Stock for purchase at satisfactory price
levels; the continuing evaluation of the Issuer's business, financial condition,
operations and prospects; general market, economic and other conditions; the
relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities;
the availability of financing; the Reporting Persons' respective financial
conditions; and other future developments. As part of their ongoing review, the
Reporting Persons (and one or more of the individuals listed on Schedule 1 to
the Statement, either individually or on behalf of the Reporting Persons) intend
to have discussions with management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer
regarding ways of improving the Issuer's performance and value, including the
possibility of replacing certain key management personnel of the Issuer. The
Reporting Persons (and one or more of the individuals listed on Schedule 1 to
the Statement, either individually or on behalf of the Reporting Persons) may
discuss the Issuer from time to time with members of the management of the
Issuer and their advisers, and may communicate with other shareholders and
interested parties concerning the Issuer. In furtherance of the goal of
improving the Issuer's performance and value, any or all of the Reporting
Persons (and one or more of the individuals listed on Schedule 1 to the
Statement, either individually or on behalf of the Reporting Persons) may seek
to work, with or without the management, Board of Directors and other
shareholders of the Issuer, to address these issues. It is possible that the
Reporting Persons (and one or more of the individuals listed on Schedule 1 to
the Statement, either individually or on behalf of the Reporting Persons) may
develop or pursue plans and proposals regarding: (i) extraordinary corporate
transactions, such as mergers, reorganizations or liquidations involving the
Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) one or more sales or transfers of a
material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) one or
more changes in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer,
including plans or proposals to change the number or terms of directors or to
fill any vacancies on the Board, (iv) one or more changes in the present
capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (v) one or more changes in the
Issuer's business or corporate structure, (vi) one or more changes in the
Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions
which may facilitate or impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any
other person, and (vii) one or more actions which may cause the Stock to cease
to be authorized to be quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market or the Issuer to become
eligible for termination or registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the
Exchange Act. Depending on future developments, the plans of the Reporting
Persons may change.
