This Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D is being filed on behalf of Lawrence Auriana (the "Reporting Person") to report a change in the nature of his beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock of Mediware Information Systems, Inc. (the "Company"). Such change arises from a privately negotiated purchase of 5,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.10, on January 31, 2001. Subsequent to such transaction the Reporting Person will beneficially own 29.6% of the Common Stock computed under the Commission's Rule 13d-3(d)(1).
Item 1. Security and Issuer
No Change.
Item 2. Identity and Background
No change.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The purchase of 5,000 shares of Common Stock that is the subject of this Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D, at a purchase price of $5.884 per share, was paid for with the Reporting Person's personal funds.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
No Change.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) As of January 31, 2002, the Reporting Person beneficially owned 2,142,025 shares of Common Stock of the Company (computed as provided in Rule 13d and including 58,200 shares that the Reporting Person has a right to acquire). On a percentage basis, the Reporting Person's ownership of the shares represents the ownership of 29.6% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company. The percentage calculation herein is based upon the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on January 21, 2002 (adjusted to reflect the exercise of warrants and options by the Reporting Person), plus, as provided in Rule 13d, the number of shares not outstanding which are subject to the option and warrant exercise privileges of the Reporting Person.
(b) The Reporting Person has sole voting power and sole disposition power over all of such shares.
(c) The Reporting Person has not effected any transactions with respect to the Common Stock during the past sixty days, other than the transaction referred to in Item 3.
