Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     It is currently anticipated that any purchases of Common Stock by Mr. Karp
upon exercise of the Options referred to in Item 5 of this Statement will be
paid for with Mr. Karp's personal funds.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

     On March 6, 2002, Mr. Karp and Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. ("Bear Stearns")
entered into a sales plan (such sales plan, as amended as of April 12, 2002 and
as of June 28, 2002, the "Sales Plan") representing Mr. Karp's adoption of a
written plan for trading securities that complies with the requirements of Rule
10b5-1(c)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). Pursuant to the Sales Plan, Bear Stearns shall exercise Options
(which are Inducement Options as defined in Item 6 of this Statement) to
purchase a total of 200,000 shares of Common Stock on the first business day of
each calendar month during the term of the Sales Plan which shall immediately
succeed the trading day on the New York Stock Exchange on which the closing sale
price of the Common Stock shall be at least $30.00 per share (except that with
respect to the first calendar month during the term of the Sales Plan such
business day shall not be earlier than March 6, 2002) and, in addition, on one
occasion during the second or third month during each three-month period covered
by a Form 144, on a business day which shall immediately succeed a trading day
on the New York Stock Exchange on which the closing sale price of the Common
Stock shall be at least $30.00 per share (except that with respect to the first
three-month period during the term of the Sales Plan such business day shall not
be earlier than March 6, 2002), certain designated registered representatives of
Bear Stearns may exercise discretion to estimate and exercise Options to
purchase such additional number of shares of Common Stock which, net of the
amount of Common Stock remaining after Common


                                    3 of 20




Stock is withheld by the Company to pay required Federal, state and local
withholding taxes due with respect to such Option exercise, together with all
shares of Common Stock sold or to be sold by Bear Stearns during such
three-month period, shall equal the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
which may be sold by Mr. Karp during such three-month period pursuant to Rule
144 hereinafter referred to; provided, however, that Bear Stearns shall not so
exercise Options if there are 250,000 or more shares of Common Stock in the Plan
Account (as defined in the Sales Plan) which have not been sold by Bear Stearns
pursuant to the Sales Plan; provided, further, however, that Bear Stearns shall
not exercise Options to purchase more than 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock
during the term of the Sales Plan and, during the term of the Sales Plan, one or
more exercise of Options may be reduced so as not to exceed such limit.
Thereafter, to the extent shares of Common Stock are available from the exercise
of such Options, Bear Stearns shall sell, as soon as reasonably practicable but
with time and price discretion, the net amount of Common Stock remaining after
Common Stock is withheld by the Company to pay required Federal, state and local
withholding taxes due with respect to such Option exercise (the "Monthly Sale
Amount") commencing on the following business day and terminating on the
business day on which all shares are sold at a gross price before deduction of
commissions or mark-down of at least $30.00 per share (the "Minimum Sale
Price"). Pursuant to the Sales Plan, the Company shall notify Bear Stearns not
later than the opening of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the trading
day immediately succeeding the date of exercise of the number of shares of
Common Stock to be withheld by the Company to pay required Federal, state and
local withholding taxes due with respect to such Option exercise. Subject to the
Minimum Sale Price and the other applicable provisions of the Sales Plan, Bear
Stearns shall sell the Monthly Sale Amount under ordinary principles of best
execution.


                                    4 of 20




     Bear Stearns agreed to conduct all sales pursuant to the Sales Plan in
accordance with the manner of sale requirement of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and in no event shall Bear
Stearns effect any sale if such sale would exceed the then-applicable volume
limitation under Rule 144, assuming that the sales to be made by Bear Stearns
under the Sales Plan are the only sales subject to such limitation, unless
directed by Mr. Karp pursuant to a registration statement with respect to such
sales in effect under the Securities Act.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, on June 28, 2002, the Sales Plan was amended
to permit Bear Stearns to exercise Options to purchase a total of 285,700 shares
of Common Stock (the total number of Options remaining to be exercised during
the term of the Sales Plan) on the first business day of July 2002 which shall
immediately succeed the trading day on the New York Stock Exchange on which the
closing sale price of the Common Stock shall be at least $30.00 per share or, if
such business day shall not occur during the month of July 2002, then during the
first month thereafter during the term of the Sales Plan during which such
business day shall occur.

     If not earlier terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, the Sales
Plan will terminate on March 31, 2003.

     The Sales Plan is filed as Exhibit C to this Statement, the amendment to
the Sales Plan dated as of April 12, 2002 is filed as Exhibit D to this
Statement and the amendment to the Sales Plan dated as of June 28, 2002 is filed
as Exhibit E to this Statement.

     Except as set forth above, Mr. Karp has no plans or proposals which relate
to or would result in any of the matters set forth subparagraphs (a) - (j) of
Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to
        Securities of the Issuer.

     Effective as of September 17, 1997, the Company amended and restated Harvey
L. Karp's then existing agreement (as amended and restated, the "Karp Employment
Agreement"). The Karp Employment Agreement has a three-year rolling term which
is automatically extended so that the unexpired term on any date is always three
years, unless either party gives written notice of his or its intention not to
extend the term. The Karp Employment Agreement provides for Mr. Karp to serve as
Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. Under the terms of the Karp
Employment Agreement, Mr. Karp is to receive (i) an annual base salary of
$606,373 (to be adjusted upward annually at a rate commensurate with increases
granted to other key executives), and (ii) a discretionary cash incentive bonus
consistent with the executive bonus program which the Company establishes for
other key executives. In addition, Mr. Karp is to receive reimbursement for
reasonable business and travel expenses incurred in the performance


                                    15 of 20




of his duties and will participate in all bonus, incentive, stock option,
pension, disability and health plans and programs and all fringe benefit plans
maintained by the Company in which senior executives participate.

     Under the terms of the Karp Employment Agreement, Mr. Karp's employment may
be terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in the Karp Employment
Agreement) or by Mr. Karp for Good Reason (as defined in the Karp Employment
Agreement) upon appropriate written notice. In either such event, Mr. Karp will
continue to receive his then-current base salary as if his employment had
continued for the reminder of the then current three-year term and an annual
bonus for the remainder of the then current three-year term equal to the average
bonus for the three calendar years immediately preceding the written notice of
termination. In addition, all outstanding unvested Company stock options then
held by Mr. Karp will immediately vest and become exercisable and Mr. Karp will
continue to participate in the Company's health plans and programs at the
Company's expense for the remainder of such three-year term.

     Mr. Karp may resign voluntarily without Good Reason upon appropriate
written notice to the Company. In such event, Mr. Karp will be entitled to
receive any accrued but unpaid base salary and, at the Company's discretion, a
bonus for the calendar year in which his resignation without Good Reason occurs.
The Company may terminate Mr. Karp's employment for Cause (as defined in the
Karp Employment Agreement) upon appropriate written notice. In such event, Mr.
Karp will forfeit all existing Company stock options, but such options shall
remain exercisable for the 30-day period following Mr. Karp's receipt of the
written notice. Mr. Karp may terminate his employment for any reason within six
months following a Change in Control (as defined in the Karp Employment
Agreement). In such event, the Company will pay Mr.


                                    16 of 20




Karp a lump sum amount equal to (i) three times his then current base salary,
and (ii) three times his average annual bonus for the three calendar years
immediately preceding the date of termination. In addition, all outstanding
unvested options then held by Mr. Karp shall become immediately exercisable. In
the event that any Payment (as defined in the Karp Employment Agreement) would
be subject to the excise tax imposed by the "Golden Parachute" regulations, Mr.
Karp would be entitled to a gross-up payment from the Company to cover such
taxes.

     The Karp Employment Agreement is filed as Exhibit A to this Statement.

     Pursuant to an Option Agreement, dated December 4, 1991, Mr. Karp was
granted an option (the "Inducement Option") to acquire 2,000,000 shares of
Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.0625 per share (as adjusted for
subsequent stock splits). The Inducement Option is exercisable until one year
after termination of Mr. Karp's employment with the Company under the Karp
Employment Agreement, unless Mr. Karp's employment is terminated for Cause (as
defined in the Karp Employment Agreement), in which case the Inducement Option
shall only remain exercisable for a period of 30 days following Mr. Karp's
receipt of written notice from the Company specifying the basis for Cause.

     The Inducement Option is filed as Exhibit B to this Statement.

     Pursuant to an Option Agreement, dated March 3, 1992, Mr. Karp was granted
an option (the "Subsequent Option") to acquire 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock
at an exercise price of $2.0625 per share (as adjusted for subsequent stock
splits). The Subsequent Option was granted to Mr. Karp in addition to the
Inducement Option granted to Mr. Karp pursuant to the Karp Employment Agreement.
The Subsequent Option is exercisable until one year after termination of Mr.
Karp's employment with the Company under the Karp Employment Agreement, unless


                                    17 of 20




Mr. Karp's employment is terminated for Cause (as defined in the Karp Employment
Agreement), in which case the Subsequent Option shall only remain exercisable
for a period of 30 days following Mr. Karp's receipt of written notice from the
Company specifying the basis for Cause.

     The Subsequent Option is filed as Exhibit B to this Statement.
