ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
This statement is being filed on behalf of Dawson-Samberg Capital

Neither of the Reporting Person nor the Executive Officers, Directors
and Controlling Persons have, during the last five years, been a party to a
civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent

future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such
laws. Each of the Executive Officers, Directors and Controlling Persons are

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person beneficially owns in the
aggregate 416,668 Shares held by accounts for which it exercises investment
discretion (the "Accounts"). These 416,668 Shares were purchased from the
Company through a rights subscription for $1,000,000.
In addition, under rule 13d-3(d) (1) (i) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the Reporting Person is deemed to be the beneficial
owner of an additional 3,452,148 shares of the Company's Common Stock as
follows: the Accounts own 916,652 Warrants ("Warrants") to purchase SWMC's
Shares at $3.00 per share, expiring 9/18/99, and 75,442 shares of SWMC's
Series A Convertible Preferred Shares ("Preferred") which are convertible
into 1,666,638 Shares. The Warrants and the Preferred Shares were acquired
from the Company in exchange for Convertible Subordinated Debentures and
Warrants owned by such Accounts. In addition, the Accounts previously
advanced $376,880 to SWMC pursuant to a Secured Convertible Promissory Note
(the "Note") pursuant to which the conversion feature is not exercisable in
the Accounts' sole discretion until the maturity date, November 30, 2000. In
connection with the Note, however, the Accounts were granted warrants to
purchase 376,880 Shares at $0.15 per share (the "Additional Warrants"). The
Accounts also subsequently advanced an additional $491,978 to SWMC and were
granted 491,978 Additional Warrants.
The funds for the purchase of Shares held by the Accounts were obtained
from the contributions of their various partners/shareholders. Such funds may
also include the proceeds of margin loans entered into in the ordinary course
of business with Morgan Stanley & Company, Inc.

in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions or in any other
lawful manner in the future. Affiliates of the Reporting Person served on the
Board of Directors of SWMC until October 23, 1998 and their resignation
prompted this Amendment. The Reporting Person reserves the right to take
whatever further action with respect to the Accounts' holdings in SWMC as the
Reporting Person deems to be in the best interest of such Accounts.
