Pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a) of Regulation 13D-G of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"),
the undersigned hereby amend their Schedule 13D Statement dated June 19, 1998
relating to the common stock, $.001 par value, of Endosonics Corporation
("Company") (such initial Schedule 13D shall hereinafter be referred to as the
"Statement"). Unless otherwise indicated, all defined terms used in this
Amendment No. 1 to the Statement (this "Amendment") shall have the same meanings
as those set forth in the Statement. There has been no material change in the
information included in the Statement except as regards the information
contained in Item 5 of the Statement, which is supplemented as set forth below.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
------------------------------------
As of July 22, 1998, Phoenix, Falcon Fund and Mustang had sold shares of
Company stock such that Mr. Patterson's beneficial ownership had been reduced to
662,500 shares, or approximately 4.09258% of outstanding shares. Of those
shares, 262,286 (1.62026% of outstanding shares) were owned directly by Phoenix;
200,214 (1.23681% of outstanding shares) were owned directly by Falcon Fund and
200,000 (1.23549% of outstanding shares) were owned directly by Mustang. As a
result of such sales and as of the date of this Amendment, Mr. Patterson,
Phoenix, Falcon Fund and Mustang owned less than 5.0% of the outstanding shares
of Company stock. As a result, no further amendments to the Statement will be
made unless and until beneficial ownership of Company common stock again exceeds
5.0% of outstanding shares.
The percentages of outstanding shares of the Company stock set out in the
preceding paragraph are computed based on a total of 16,187,830 outstanding
shares of Company stock as of May 15, 1998, as indicated by the Company's
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
