relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of

of the principal executive offices of the Company is 5000 Executive Parkway,
Suite 425, San Ramon, California 94583.

ITEM 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

                  This Amendment No. 12 is filed on behalf of (i) Michael E.

its line of credit with Bank of America Illinois.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

                  On April 20, 2000, the Company accepted a proposal made by
Heico Companies for the acquisition by Heico Companies of all of the outstanding
common stock of the Company not now owned by Heico Companies and its affiliates
for $11.50 per share. RHH Acquisition Corp. ("RHH"), a subsidiary of Heico
Companies, and the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
April 20, 2000, pursuant to which RHH would commence a cash tender offer of such
shares of Common Stock. The tender offer and merger are subject to customary
conditions and the condition that the number of shares tendered, when combined
with those already owned by Heico Companies and its affiliates, equal at least
90% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. If RHH acquires enough
shares in the tender offer so that Heico Companies and its affiliates own more
than 90% of all outstanding shares of Common Stock, the merger will take place
without a vote of the Company's shareholders immediately after the tender offer
is consummated.

                  Except as provided herein, Heisley, Heico and Heico Companies
have no current plans with respect to the disposition of the shares of Common
Stock or the acquisition of additional shares of Common Stock. However, subject

Stock if they determine at any time that such shares are available at prices and
on terms and conditions they believe to be favorable.
