         This is Amendment  No. 2 to a Statement on Schedule 13D with respect to
the common  stock,  par value $.0001 per share,  of  Infinity,  Inc., a Colorado
corporation ("Infinity" or the "Company") filed by a group comprised of David J.
Smith and Nils P. Peterson (the "Reporting Persons").

Item 2.           Identity and Background.

         As reported in Item 4 below, the Reporting  Persons have terminated the
group that they previously  formed for the purpose of  participating  in a proxy
contest for the election of a slate of nominees to the Board of Directors of the
Company.

Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction.

         On or about March 18, 1999, the Reporting  Persons filed a Statement on
Schedule  13D to report that they had formed a committee  to  participate  in an
anticipated  proxy  contest for the election of a slate of nominees to the Board
of  Directors  of  the  Company  at  the  next  annual  or  special  meeting  of
shareholders  of the  Company  that  is  called  for  the  purpose  of  electing
directors.

         On or about April 5, 1999, the Reporting  Persons filed Amendment No. 1
to the Statement on Schedule 13D to report certain events that transpired at the
Special  Meeting of  Shareholders  of the  Company  held on March 22,  1999 (the
"Special Meeting").

         Since the date of the Special Meeting,  (i) the Reporting  Persons have
filed preliminary proxy materials with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"),  and (ii) the Company has filed a Complaint against David J.
Smith alleging breach of fiduciary duty and breach of the duty of loyalty in the
District  Court,  City and County of Denver,  State of Colorado  (the  "Colorado
Litigation").  In addition,  on May 21, 1999,  Infinity  issued a press  release
announcing,  among other  things,  that Infinity had nominated and appointed two
persons  who are not  employed  by  Infinity  to begin  serving  on its Board of
Directors effective June 1, 1999.

         On May 27,  1999,  the  Company  and the  Reporting  Persons  agreed to
resolve all of the issues between them in accordance  with a written  settlement
agreement, the material terms of which are as follows:

         (i) The Reporting  Persons agreed not to (A) consent to being nominated
as a candidate  for  Infinity's  Board of  Directors,  (B) serve as directors of
Infinity if elected,  (C) solicit proxies from Infinity's  shareholders,  or (D)
assist or support others in soliciting proxies from Infinity's shareholders;

         (ii)  The  Reporting  Persons  agreed  to file  documents  with the SEC
describing the terms of the agreement that had been reached by the parties;

         (iii) Mr. Smith agreed to post a message on the Yahoo! Finance Infinity
Message Board under the public profile "Thoranly"  stating,  in substance,  that
the  Reporting  Persons  are  discontinuing  their  efforts to engage in a proxy
contest with  current  management  because  Infinity's  goal of adding  credible
outside directors to its Board of Directors has been achieved;

         (iv) Infinity agreed to dismiss the Colorado Litigation with prejudice;



<PAGE>


         (v)  Infinity  and  certain  affiliates  agreed to release all of their
claims  against the  Reporting  Persons,  and the  Reporting  Persons  agreed to
release all of their claims against Infinity and certain of its affiliates; and

         (vi)     each side agreed to bear their own attorney's fees.

         Accordingly,  the Reporting Persons have terminated the group that they
previously  formed for the purpose of  participating  in a proxy contest for the
election of a slate of nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company. Except
for the written  settlement  agreement  reached with the  Company,  the material
terms of which  are  described  above,  the  Reporting  Persons  have no oral or
written agreements, understandings or arrangements for the purpose of acquiring,
holding,  voting or disposing of any securities of the Company or otherwise with
respect to the Company.  Therefore,  Mr. Smith  expressly  disclaims  beneficial
ownership of any Common Stock owned by Mr. Peterson,  and Mr. Peterson expressly
disclaims  beneficial  ownership of any Common Stock owned by Mr. Smith. Each of
Mr. Smith and Mr. Peterson  beneficially  own less than five percent (5%) of the
Common Stock.

                                    SIGNATURE

         After  reasonable  inquiry and to the best  knowledge and belief of the
undersigned,  the  undersigned  certifies that the information set forth in this
Statement is true, correct and complete.


Dated:            May 27, 1999.                           /s/David J. Smith

undersigned,  the  undersigned  certifies that the information set forth in this
