and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

  Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as
follows:

  (a)  TPG

  The aggregate number of Common Shares that TPG owns beneficially,
pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, is 7,646,050, which constitutes
approximately 37.5% of the 20,365,699 Common Shares deemed outstanding

  To the best of the knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, other
than as set forth above, none of the persons named in Item 2 herein is the
beneficial owner of any Common Shares.

  (b)  TPG

  Acting through its sole general partner, TPG GenPar, L.P., acting
through its sole general partner, TPG Advisors, Inc., TPG has the sole power
to vote or direct the vote and to dispose or direct the disposition of
7,646,050 Common Shares.

  Acting through its sole general partner, TPG GenPar, L.P., acting
through its sole general partner, TPG Advisors, Inc., Parallel has the sole
power to vote or direct the vote and to dispose or direct the disposition of
761,988 Common Shares.

  (c) On January 20, 1998, TPG and Parallel exercised 568,358 and
56,642 Warrants, respectively, to purchase a like number of shares of the

during the past 60 days.

  (d)  Each of the Reporting Persons affirms that no person other than
such Reporting Person has the right to receive or the power to direct the
receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common
Shares owned by such Reporting Person.

  (e)  Not applicable.

Item 6.     Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with 
  Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

  Item 6 is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:

  On January 20, 1998, TPG and the Issuer entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement").  On the same date TPG, Parallel
and the Issuer entered into (i) an amendment to the Registration Rights
Agreement dated December 21, 1995, by and among the same parties (the
"Registration Rights Amendment"), and (ii) an agreement relating to the
waiver by TPG of  its preemptive rights (the "Preemptive Rights Wavier") in
connection with the Issuer's pending public offering of $100,000,000 of its
Common Stock (the "Public Offering").  The description herein of the Stock
Purchase Agreement, the  Registration Rights Amendment and the Preemptive
Rights Waiver are not, and do not purport to be, complete and are qualified
in their entirety by reference to copies of such agreements which are
attached hereto as Exhibits 10.5, 4.5 and 10.6, respectively.

Stock Purchase Agreement

  Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, TPG agreed, subject to the
conditions set forth therein, to purchase shares of the Common Stock from the
Issuer for a total purchase price of $5,000,000.  TPG's obligation to
purchase the shares of Common Stock are subject to and conditioned upon (i)
the closing of the Public Offering, (ii) the effectiveness of a registration
statement relating to the shares being purchased by TPG, and (iii) the
delivery to TPG of a final prospectus relating to its purchase of shares. 
The purchase price per share for the shares to be purchased by TPG shall be
the price per share of the Common Stock to the public in the Public Offering
less underwriting discounts and commissions; provided, however, that the
purchase price shall be subject to approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange
("TSE"), and in the event that the TSE does not approve such purchase price,
the purchase price shall be 100% of the price per share to the public in the
Public Offering.

  TPG has agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the shares
of Common Stock purchased by it under the Stock Purchase Agreement for a
period of six months from the date of the closing of the Public Offering
without the prior consent of the TSE.

Registration Rights Amendment

  The Registration Rights Amendment amends the Registration Rights
Agreement to provide that shares of the Common Stock acquired by TPG under
the Stock Purchase Agreement will constitute "Subject Common Shares" as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement and will thus be eligible for
the benefits of such agreement.

Preemptive Rights Waiver

  Pursuant to the Preemptive Rights Waiver, TPG waived its rights to
purchase additional shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer in the Public
Offering so as to maintain its pro rata ownership in the equity securities of
the Issuer.  TPG's waiver of its preemptive rights with respect to the Public
Offering shall expire if the Public Offering shall not have occurred by March
31, 1998.

  Except as set forth herein or in the exhibits filed herewith, there
are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect
to the shares of the capital stock of the Issuer owned by the Reporting
Persons.
