to the shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of
Applied Microsystems Corporation, a Washington corporation (the "Issuer"), filed
by Vencap, Inc., Onex Corporation and Gerald W. Schwartz. Capitalized terms,
used but not defined herein, shall have the meaning set forth in the Statement.
The Statement is hereby amended as set forth below:
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) and (b). As of the date hereof, Vencap owns 663,360 shares of
Common Stock.
Vencap beneficially owns 588,360 shares of Common Stock,
representing approximately 8.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (based
on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of July 31, 1997).
Onex, as the indirect beneficial owner of approximately 90% of the
shares of Vencap, may be deemed to own beneficially 588,360 shares of common
stock, representing approximately 8.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
(based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of July 31, 1997).
Mr. Schwartz is the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer
of Onex and the indirect holder of all the issued and outstanding shares of
Multiple Voting Shares of Onex, ownership which entitles Mr. Schwartz to elect
sixty percent (60%) of the members of Onex's Board of Directors, and therefore
may also be deemed to own beneficially such shares of Common Stock.
