(f) III is a Nevada general partnership. HRO is a Cayman Island
limited liability company.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
III and HRO financed the acquisition of the shares of common stock
of the Company by conversion of the Series C Preferred stock which were acquired
on March 3, 1997 from Nelson Partners and Olympus Securities, Ltd. with working
capital.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
This Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D is being filed to reflect
subsequent changes in the amount of stock issuable pursuant to any conversion of
Series C Preferred Stock (due to fluctuations of the common stock price of the
Issuer), held by HRO and III, as well as to reflect the fact that HRO is seeking
representation on Aegis' board of directors by nominating Warren B. Mosler and
Robert H. Fasulo to serve thereon.
HRO originally acquired the shares for investment purposes. On or
about March 3, 1997, HRO entered into an agreement to acquire 93 shares of
Series C Preferred Aegis Stock from Nelson Partners and to acquire 93 shares of
Series C Preferred Aegis Stock from Olympus Securities, Ltd. at the original par
price paid by the two counterparts for a total of 186 shares of Series C
Preferred Aegis Stock. On or about March 7, 1997, HRO exercised its right to
convert a total of 83 shares of the Series C Preferred Aegis Stock at a 15%
discount of the five (5) day prior average NASDAQ closing bid price. HRO
acquired 890,704 shares of the Company's
<PAGE>
common stock at a price of approximately $0.98 cents per share. As of the same
date HRO owned 103 shares of Series C Preferred Aegis Stock, which were
convertible into 1,077,368 shares of common stock of Issuer. Subsequently, On
December 10, 1997 HRO sold 27,500 shares of common stock at $0.156250 per share
and on December 15, 1997 sold 50,000 shares of common stock for $0.09375 per
share. On January 13, 1998, 85 of the remaining 106 shares of Series C Preferred
Aegis Stock were converted into 12,332,783 shares of common stock of the Issuer
at approximately $0.0796 per share leaving HRO with 21 shares of Series C
Preferred Aegis Stock. Accordingly, HRO owns, directly and indirectly,
approximately 15,401,326 shares of common stock, representing 47.73% of the
total outstanding common stock (assuming conversion of all of HRO's Series C
Preferred Stock) as of June 24, 1998. Note, however that Aegis currently does
not have sufficient authorized but unissued shares to honor any additional
conversion of Series C Preferred stock.
The primary purpose of the conversion of Series C Preferred stock into
common stock of Aegis is to allow HRO to vote its shares of common stock at any
shareholder meeting regarding any issue properly brought up for shareholder
approval, including but not limited to the election of Aegis directors and the
approval of the proposed sale of Systems & Services Technologies, Inc. to III
Associates and Adams, Viner & Mosler, Ltd. ("AVM"), two affiliates of III. III
and HRO may also (a) seek discussions with Aegis management in an attempt to
enhance or improve the operations of Aegis, (b) seek representation on Aegis'
board of directors or (c) take other actions similar to the foregoing.
As referenced above, III and HRO are seeking representation on
Aegis' board of directors by nominating both, Warren B. Mosler, a principal of
AVM and a beneficial owner of III Associates and III, and Robert H. Fasulo,
AVM's General Counsel and principal of III Associates and III, to serve thereon
by election at the Company's next annual shareholders' meeting. HRO and III
believes that the nomination of the above referenced individuals to the
Company's board of directors will enhance and improve the operations of Aegis.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) III and HRO, as of June 24, 1998, are the beneficial owners in
the aggregate of 15,401,326 shares of common stock of the Issuer, representing
in the aggregate 47.73 percent of such class. HRO is the beneficial owner of
15,401,326 shares of common stock of the Issuer, representing in the aggregate
47.73 percent of such class. HRO is a beneficial owner, in that it has the right
to acquire sole voting and investment power within less than sixty (60) days
over said securities (since it can terminate III on 30 days' notice to III), of
15,40,326 shares of common stock of the Issuer, representing in the aggregate
47.73 percent of such class.
(b) III and HRO have in the aggregate the sole power to vote or to
direct the vote and the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of
15,401,326 shares of common stock of the Issuer; HRO has the sole power to vote
or to direct the vote and the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of
15,401,326 shares of common stock of the Issuer; HRO has the contingent sole
power to vote or to direct the vote and the sole power to dispose or direct the
disposition of 15,401,326 shares of common stock of the Issuer. Neither III or
HRO are the
<PAGE>
beneficial owners of any shares of the capital stock of the Issuer in which they
share the power to vote or to direct the vote or share the power to dispose or
direct the disposition of shares.
(c) Not applicable.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer
III and HRO have no contracts, arrangements, understandings or
relationships between themselves with respect to any securities of the Issuer
which relate to such matters as transfer or voting of any such securities,
finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option agreements, puts or calls,
guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding
of proxies, and no such contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship
exists between or among them and the Issuer. However, III and HRO have in the
past consulted, and can in the future be expected to consult between themselves
and with other members of the Issuer's management concerning their respective
investments in the Issuer.
Item 7. Material to be filed as Exhibits
Please see Exhibit "A" attached hereto, which demonstrates the
conversion formula for the remaining 21 shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned
