Item 4. Terms of the Transactions 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13E-3 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

      At 12:00 Midnight, New York City time, on Tuesday, April 27, 1999, the
Offer expired. Based on the information provided by the Depositary, 98.3% of the
Shares (which number includes approximately 1,628,759 Shares subject to guaranty
of delivery) were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the
Offer. The Purchaser has accepted for payment, and has notified the Depositary
to promptly pay for, the tendered and accepted Shares at the purchase price of
$9.25 per share in cash.

     Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Purchaser intends to merge into the
Company in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") as
promptly as practicable. As a result of the Merger, the Company will become a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and each outstanding Share (other than Shares
held in the treasury of the Company, Shares owned by Parent, Purchaser or any
other direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent or Purchaser, and Shares, if any,
owned by stockholders who choose to dissent and demand appraisal of their Shares
in accordance with the DGCL) shall be canceled, retired and converted into the
right to receive $9.25 per Share in cash, without interest, less any applicable
withholding taxes.

     The consummation of the Offer was publicly announced in a press release
issued by the Parent on April 28, 1999, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit
(d)(11) hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
