         Rodin, Klee, Helene B. Gralnick, and Marvin J. Gralnick, in filing this
Statement, each jointly further amend and restate the Schedule 13D as follows:


ITEM 4            PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
-----------------------------------------

         All of the transactions occurring in December 1998, June 1999, December
1999, June 2000, and July 2000 were engaged in to facilitate investment and/or
estate planning activities for the respective parties to those transactions.
Insofar as the Common Stock of the Issuer is concerned Rodin generally acquired
and continues to hold the Common Stock of the Issuer as an equity investment.

         Rodin or any of the persons who are considered for purposes of Rule
13d-3 to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin may from
time to time in the future acquire additional securities of the Issuer,
including shares of the Common Stock. In addition, from time to time in the
future, Rodin and any of the persons who are considered for purposes of Rule
13d-3 to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin may dispose
of securities of the Issuer, including shares of the Common Stock. Except as
noted otherwise in this paragraph, at the time of the acquisition, Rodin and the
persons who are considered for purposes of Rule 13d-3 to beneficially own the
shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin had, and at the present time Rodin and the
persons who are considered for purposes of Rule 13d-3 to beneficially own the
shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin continue to have, no independent plans or
proposals of the type

specified in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D
Instructions except that Marvin J. Gralnick and/or Helene B. Gralnick may from
time to time, for estate planning purposes, but without obligation, transfer
limited partner interests primarily to family members, to irrevocable trusts
established for the benefit of family members and to persons in which family
members have interests. The intentions of Rodin or any of the persons who are
considered for purposes of Rule 13d-3 to beneficially own the shares of Common
Stock owned by Rodin with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer may change
at any time in the future, or from time to time in the future. It is possible
that in the future, or from time to time in the future, Rodin or any of the
persons who are considered for purposes of Rule 13d-3 to beneficially own the
shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin may independently develop and implement or
engage in one or more of the transactions of the type specified in paragraphs
(a) through (j) of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D Instructions in addition to those
which may arise in connection with Ms. Gralnick's and Mr. Gralnick's current,
regular, and customary service as officers and directors of the Issuer and the
possible exercise of outstanding and vested stock options.

STOCK OPTIONS

         The stock options held by Helene B. Gralnick and Marvin J. Gralnick
were granted under the Company's stock option plans, generally at the same time
as stock options were granted to other key employees of the Company, in each
case to provide incentive to the respective key employee to continue and
increase their respective efforts to improve operating results, to remain in the
employ of the Company and to have a greater financial interest in the Company.
As a result of the vesting of these options, Ms. Gralnick and Mr. Gralnick will
each be able to increase their respective ownership of stock in the Company upon
exercise of the respective options.

ITEM 5            INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
------------------------------------------------------

         Rodin is governed under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement
dated December 21, 1995, as amended (the "Rodin Agreement"). Under the terms of
the Rodin Agreement, the interests of the partners in Rodin, as of the execution
date of this Amendment, are: Klee & Co., L.L.C. - 83.043 Units, Marvin J.
Gralnick - 4,093.270 Units, Helene B. Gralnick - 4,093.270 Units and Leslie C.
Giordani, as the trustee of various irrevocable trusts established by Marvin J.
Gralnick and/or Helene B. Gralnick - - 34.39 Units in the aggregate.

         Under the terms of the Rodin Agreement, Klee, in its capacity as the
sole general partner of Rodin, has the full and exclusive right and power to
manage and operate the business of Rodin, including the power to vote and
dispose of all shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer held by Rodin. Helene B.
Gralnick and Marvin J. Gralnick are the sole members of Klee. Therefore, Helene
B. Gralnick and Marvin J. Gralnick are considered for purposes of Rule 13d-3 to
beneficially own all of the shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin. Accordingly,
as a result of these relationships, Rodin, Klee, Helene B. Gralnick, and Marvin
J. Gralnick may be deemed to share the power to vote, direct the vote, dispose
of and direct the disposition of the 2,021,488 shares of the Common Stock

of the Issuer held by Rodin. Such shares represent 11.59% of the total
outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer as of July 6, 2000.

         In addition, as described herein, Helene B. Gralnick has the option to
acquire 106,667 additional shares of Common Stock that she beneficially owns
pursuant to the terms of those options granted to Ms. Gralnick under the
Company's stock option plans that are currently vested. The shares underlying
the vested stock options held by Ms. Gralnick, together with the shares held by
Rodin, constitute 12.13% of the total outstanding shares of the Common Stock of
the Issuer as of July 6, 2000.

         In addition, as described herein, Marvin J. Gralnick has the option to
acquire 330,000 additional shares of Common Stock that he beneficially owns
pursuant to the terms of those options granted to Mr. Gralnick under the
Company's stock option plans that are currently vested. The shares underlying
the vested stock options held by Mr. Gralnick, together with the shares held by
Rodin, constitute 13.24% of the total outstanding shares of the Common Stock of
the Issuer as of July 6, 2000.

ITEM 6            CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
                  RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         See "Item 5 Interest in Securities of the Issuer" for information
regarding the Rodin Agreement.

         Rodin is a party to "zero-cost collar" arrangements with respect to
certain shares of Common Stock owned by Rodin.

         On December 24, 1998, Rodin entered into a letter agreement with
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch") pursuant to
which Rodin (a) bought from Merrill Lynch a European-style put relating to
159,240 shares of Common Stock (reflects adjustment for the effect of the Stock
Split) at a price of $11.0645 per share (reflects adjustment for the effect of
the Stock Split) , subject to further adjustment and (b) sold to Merrill Lynch a
European-style call relating to 159,240 shares of Common Stock (reflects
adjustment for the effect of the Stock Split) at a price of $15.9825 per share
(reflects adjustment for the effect of the Stock Split), subject to further
adjustment. The put and the call are not exercisable until, and are scheduled to
expire, on or about December 26, 2000, and if one of the two is in the money at
the close of trading on that date, that option shall be deemed to be
automatically exercised. Rodin has the right to determine whether settlement of
the put or call, as applicable, will be in cash or in shares of Common Stock. In
connection with the foregoing transaction (the "December 1998 Collar"), Rodin
granted Merrill Lynch a first priority lien, charge and security interest in the
shares of Common Stock held by Merrill Lynch as security for its obligations
under the zero-cost collar.

         On January 8, 1999, Rodin entered into a letter agreement with Merrill
Lynch providing for a "zero-cost collar" on the same terms as the December 1998
Collar with the following differences:

(a) the Rodin letter agreement related to 240,760 shares of Common Stock
(reflects adjustment for the effect of the Stock Split), (b) the put price is
$12.1795 (reflects adjustment for the effect of the Stock Split), subject to
further adjustment and the call price is $17.50 (reflects adjustment for the
effect of the Stock Split), subject to further adjustment, and (c) the put and
call are each scheduled to expire on or about January 8, 2001.
