     This  Amendment No. 2 to the  Statement on Schedule 13D dated  November 24,
1998,  and  previously  amended on January 20, 1999, of June H. Geneen,  Phil E.
Gilbert,  Jr., Thomas W. Keesee, Jr. and United States Trust Company of New York
(collectively,  the "Executors"), as executors of the Estate of Harold S. Geneen
(the "Estate"), is being filed as a result of the election on April 12, 1999, of
Steven S.  Kirkpatrick,  a Vice  President of United States Trust Company of New
York,  to the Board of Directors of the Issuer.  Capitalized  terms herein which
are not defined  herein shall have the same meanings as in the said Statement on
Schedule 13D as amended on January 20, 1999.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

     ITEM 4 OF THIS STATEMENT IS HEREBY AMENDED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING:

     The Warrants issued to Gunther  Partners LLC ("GP") pursuant to the Omnibus
Agreement became  exercisable on January 1, 1999, and expire on October 1, 2003,
and the exercise price of the Warrants is $1.50 per share, subject to adjustment
in certain  events.  As of March 23, 1999, the Issuer believed that the Warrants
would be exercisable for 2,616,116 Warrant Shares.

     Also in connection with the Omnibus Agreement, the Issuer, Park Investment,
Gerald H. Newman, GP, the Estate,  Four Partners and Robert Spiegel entered into
a Voting  Agreement  dated as of  October  2,  1998  (the  "Voting  Agreement"),
pursuant to which the parties  agreed to vote all shares of capital stock of the
Issuer  owned by them at any time for  election to the Board of Directors of the
Issuer of a number of  individuals  nominated by GP  sufficient  to constitute a
majority of the Board of Directors,  one individual  nominated by the Estate and
one  individual  nominated by Park  Investment.  At present,  Robert Spiegel and
Thomas M. Steinberg are the nominees of GP, Steven S. Kirkpatrick is the nominee
of the  Estate,  and Gerald H.  Newman is the  nominee of Park  Investment.  Mr.
Kirkpatrick  was first  elected to the Board of  Directors  of the Issuer at the
Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Issuer held on April 12, 1999.

     Based on information obtained from Amendment No. 6 and from Amendment No. 5
dated  October 7, 1998,  to the  Statement  on  Schedule  13D filed by GP,  Four
Partners and Robert Spiegel with respect to their beneficial ownership of Common
Stock,  the  Executors  believe  that (i) GP has voting power with respect to no
shares of currently outstanding Common Stock, (ii) Four-Fourteen  Partners,  LLC
(as  transferee of Four  Partners) has sole voting power with respect to 494,189
currently  outstanding shares of Common Stock, and (iii) Robert Spiegel has sole
voting  power with  respect  to 75,500  currently  outstanding  shares of Common
Stock. In addition,  the Executors have been advised by Gerald H. Newman that he
has sole voting power with  respect to 72,702  currently  outstanding  shares of
Common Stock.  Therefore,  as of the date of this Amendment No. 2, the Executors
believe that Park  Investment,  Mr.  Newman,  the Estate,  GP, Four Partners and
Robert Spiegel own in the aggregate  2,255,704  currently  outstanding shares of
Common  Stock,  which are  approximately  52.6% of the  shares of the  4,291,769
shares of Common Stock  outstanding  on April 16, 1999  (assuming no exercise of
outstanding warrants and options),  and that such 2,255,704 shares are currently
those which are subject to the Voting Agreement.

     Apart from the  foregoing,  none of the  Executors  has a plan or  proposal
which relates to or would result in:

          (a) the  acquisition  by any person of  additional  securities  of the
     Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;

          (b)  an  extraordinary  corporate  transaction,   such  as  a  merger,
     reorganization,  or  liquidation,  involving  the  Issuer  or  any  of  its
     subsidiaries;

          (c) a sale or  transfer  of a  material  amount  of the  assets of the
     Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

          (d) any change in the present  board of directors or management of the
     Issuer,  including  any plan or  proposal  to change  the number or term of
     directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;

          (e) any  material  change in the  present  capitalization  or dividend
     policy of the Issuer;

          (f) any other  material  change in the Issuer's  business or corporate
     structure;

          (g) changes in the Issuer's  charter or by-laws or other actions which
     may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;

          (h) a class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national
     securities  exchange  or  ceasing  to  be  authorized  to be  quoted  in an
     inter-dealer   quotation  system  of  a  registered   national   securities
     association;

          (i) a class of equity  securities of the Issuer becoming  eligible for
     termination of registration  pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities
     Exchange Act of 1934; or

          (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
