Robertson Stephens & Company ("Robertson Stephens") of up to $5,000 aggregate
principal amount of 6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2003 (the

conjunction with the Prospectus dated May 3, 1996, as supplemented to date (the
"Prospectus"), to be delivered with this Supplement. All capitalized terms used
but not defined in this Supplement shall have the meanings given them in the 
Prospectus.

        Based on information provided to the Company, the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes that are currently beneficially owned by Robertson Stephens
is $5,000, all of which may be sold at this time pursuant to the Prospectus as
supplemented hereby. Additional information concerning the Selling
Securityholders (including Forum) may be set forth from time to time in
additional supplements to the Prospectus. The total outstanding aggregate
principal amount of the Notes is $80,500,000.

incurrence of additional indebtedness or other liabilities by the Company.
