      This  Amendment  No. 1 to Schedule  13D is being filed to reflect  certain
changes previously made with respect to the organizational  structure of FCP and
Tinicum.  See Item 2 below for a  description  of the  changes  and the  current
structure  of both of such  entities.  This  amendment  amends the  Schedule 13D
initially filed on April 9, 1993 (collectively, with all amendments thereto, the
"Schedule 13D"). 

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

      Item 1 of the  Schedule  13D is amended and  restated  in its  entirety as
follows:

      This  statement  relates to units of  limited  partnership  interest  (the
"Units") of ML-Lee  Acquisition  Fund, L.P. (the "Fund").  The Fund's  principal
offices are located at World  Financial  Center,  South Tower,  23rd Floor,  New
York, New York 10080-6123.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

      Item 2 of the  Schedule  13D is amended and  restated  in its  entirety as
follows:

      (a) This  statement is filed by: (i) Farallon  Capital  Partners,  L.P., a
California limited  partnership  ("FCP"),  with respect to the Units held by it;
(ii) Tinicum Partners, L.P., a New York limited partnership ("Tinicum"; together
with FCP,  the  "Partnerships"),  with  respect to the Units  held by it;  (iii)
Farallon Partners,  L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("FPLLC"), with
respect to the Units held by each of the  Partnerships;  (iv) each of Enrique H.
Boilini  ("Boilini"),  David I. Cohen  ("Cohen"),  Joseph F. Downes  ("Downes"),
Fleur E.  Fairman  ("Fairman"),  Jason  M.  Fish  ("Fish"),  Andrew  B.  Fremder
("Fremder"),  William F.  Mellin  ("Mellin"),  Stephen L.  Millham  ("Millham"),
Meridee A. Moore ("Moore") and Thomas F. Steyer ("Steyer"),  with respect to the
Units  held  by  each  of  the   Partnerships;   and  (v)  Eric  M.   Ruttenberg
("Ruttenberg") (FCP, Tinicum,  FPLLC,  Boilini,  Cohen, Downes,  Fairman,  Fish,
Fremder,  Mellin,  Millham,  Moore,  Ruttenberg and Steyer shall collectively be
referred to hereafter as the "Reporting Persons").

      As of April 1,  1996,  FPLLC  succeeded  Cohen,  Downes,  Fairman,  Fish,
Mellin,  Ruttenberg,  Moore and  Steyer as  general  partner  of each of FCP and
Tinicum.  Because  Ruttenberg is not a general partner of either FCP or Tinicum,
he is no longer deemed a "beneficial  owner" of any of the Units. As of April 1,
1996, Andrew B. Fremder and Stephen L. Millham became managing members of FPLLC.
As of October 1, 1996, Enrique H. Boilini became a managing member of FPLLC.

      The  name,   address,   principal   business,   citizenship  or  state  of
organization, executive officers, directors and controlling persons of FPLLC are
set forth on Annex 1 hereto.  The Units reported hereby for the Partnerships are
owned  directly by the  Partnerships.  FPLLC may be deemed to be the  beneficial
owner of all such  Units  owned by the  Partnerships.  Each of  Boilini,  Cohen,
Downes, Fairman, Fish, Fremder, Mellin, Millham, Moore and Steyer may be deemed,
as managing members of FPLLC, to be the beneficial owner of all such Units. Each

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds and Other Consideration.

      Item 3 of the  Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety by the
following:

      The  net  investment   cost  (including   commissions)  is   approximately
$8,176,329 for the 23,977 Units held by FCP and approximately  $2,401,213.50 for
the 6,510 Units held by Tinicum.

      The  consideration  for such acquisitions was obtained with respect to FCP
and Tinicum from working capital,  from borrowings  pursuant to a margin account
maintained by FCP at Goldman,  Sachs & Co., and/or from  borrowings  pursuant to
separate  revolving  credit  agreements  entered into by each of FCP and Tinicum
with ING (U.S.)  Capital  Corporation.  Each of FCP and  Tinicum  holds  certain
securities in its  respective  margin  account at Goldman,  Sachs & Co., and the
account  may from  time to time  have a debit  balance.  It is not  possible  to
determine the amount of borrowings,  if any, used to acquire the Units.  

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

      Item 4 of the  Schedule  13D is amended and  restated  in its  entirety as
follows:

      The purpose of the  acquisition of the Units by each of FCP and Tinicum is
for  investment,  and the  purchase  of the Units by each of FCP and Tinicum was
made in the  ordinary  course of  business  and was not made for the  purpose of
acquiring  control  of the  Fund.  Each  of FCP and  Tinicum  may  make  further
purchases  of Units from time to time and may dispose of any or all of the Units
held by it at any time. None of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals
which  relate  to,  or  could  result  in,  any of the  matters  referred  to in
paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive,  of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting
Persons  may,  at any time and from  time to time,  review or  

                               Page 18 of 29 Pages

reconsider  their  position  with respect to the Fund,  and  formulate  plans or
proposals with respect to any of such matters,  but have no present intention of
doing so.
