Emeritus Corporation, a Washington corporation ("Emeritus") hereby
amends and supplements the Report on Schedule 13D originally filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on October 14, 1997 (the "Schedule 13D")
with respect to the purchase of shares of Common Stock, no par value per share
(the "Shares") of ARV Assisted Living, Inc., a California corporation.
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to
such terms in the Schedule 13D.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
The response set forth in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows.
The aggregate amount of funds required by Emeritus to purchase
the 1,077,200 Shares directly owned by it referred to in Item 5 hereof (the
"Emeritus Shares") and to pay related costs was approximately $13.2 million.
Of such funds, as of the date hereof, approximately $9.1 million was obtained
through margin loans from Ragen MacKenzie Incorporated, Seattle, Washington.
The balance of such funds was obtained from the working capital of Emeritus.
Future purchases of Shares, if any, by Emeritus or its affiliates would be
financed from (a) the working capital of Emeritus, (b) margin loans and (c)
other third party sources. In the event that Emeritus acquires all the equity
of ARV, it will need funds in addition to its existing resources. While
Emeritus has had extensive discussions with prospective sources of financing
including banks, institutional investors and private debt and equity sources,
to date it has not entered into any definitive agreements for specifically the
purpose of acquiring Shares.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company.
The response set forth in Item 5(a) of the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended by replacing "958,700" and "8.28%" in the first sentence with
"1,077,200" and "9.3%", respectively.
The response set forth in Item 5(b) of the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended by replacing "958,700" in the first sentence with "1,077,200".
The response set forth in Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
Other than the transactions described below, no transactions in the
Shares have been effected since the filing of the Schedule 13D. All of the
purchases of Shares set forth below were made in the open market.
