ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D for the Reporting Person is hereby
amended to add the following:
On April 18, 2000, stockholders (collectively, the Majority
Stockholders") owning in excess of 75% of the Company's outstanding common
stock, sent a letter (the "Withdrawal Letter") to the Board of Directors of
the Company withdrawing the offer which they had made on January 9, 2000
(the "Majority Stockholder Offer") to acquire all of the shares of the
Company's common stock not owned by the Majority Stockholders for $21 per
share in cash. The Withdrawal Letter stated that the Majority Stockholders
had engaged in discussions with representatives of the Special Committee of
the Board of Directors which had been appointed to consider the Majority
Stockholder Offer and, based upon such discussions, the Majority
Stockholders believed that it was unlikely that they would be able to reach
agreement with the Special Committee as to the price per share to be paid
to the Company's minority stockholders. The Withdrawal Letter is attached
hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by reference in its
entirety.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
Item 5(e) of the Schedule 13D for the Reporting Person is hereby
amended to add the following:
As a result of the Withdrawal Letter described in Item 4, on April 18,
2000, Mr. Cucuz ceased to be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the
shares held by the Majority Stockholders pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the
General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act. Mr.
Cucuz's reporting obligation pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder is therefore
terminated.

Gentlemen:
Reference is made to our letter dated January 9, 2000 pursuant to
which Joseph Littlejohn & Levy Fund II, L.P., on behalf of the holders of
in excess of 75% of the outstanding common stock of Hayes Lemmerz
International, Inc. (the "Company"), offered to acquire all of the shares
of the Company's common stock not owned by such stockholders for $21 per
share in cash (the "Proposal").
As you know, we have engaged in discussions with representatives
of the Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors with respect
to the Proposal. Based upon such discussions, we believe that it is
unlikely that we will be able to reach an agreement as to the price per
share to be paid to the Company's minority stockholders. Accordingly, we
hereby withdraw the Proposal.
Very truly yours,
JOSEPH LITTLEJOHN & LEVY FUND II, L.P.
