     "(c) Except as set forth on Schedule II hereto or as
reported in previous amendments to the Schedule 13D, none of the

Common Stock during the past 60 days."

     "(e) The Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of
more than 5% of the Common Stock on August 30, 1995. 
Accordingly, the Reporting Persons no longer have a reporting
obligation under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act,
and the Reporting Persons intend not to further amend their
report on Schedule 13D to reflect changes in the facts set forth
herein that may occur after the date hereof."

     Item 7 of the Schedule 13D, "Exhibits," is hereby amended
by adding the following Exhibit:
