Page 8 of 15 Pages 9 ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER. This Statement constitutes Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D (as originally filed and amended, the "Schedule 13D") filed by Reservoir Capital Management, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("RCM"), Reservoir Capital Group, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("RCG"), Reservoir Capital Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("RCP"), Reservoir Capital Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("RCA"), and Reservoir Capital Master Fund, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("RCMF"), and an initial filing by OJ Acquisition Corp., a Florida corporation ("OJA"), with respect to the beneficial ownership of shares of common stock, par value $.50 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Orange-co, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Schedule 13D. In this Statement, each of RCM, RCG, RCP, RCA, RCMF and OJA may be referred to as a "Reporting Person," and collectively as the "Reporting Persons." Other than as set forth herein, there has been no material change in the information set forth in Items 1 through 7 of the Schedule 13D. ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is amended to add the following paragraph at the end of paragraph 8: This Statement is also being filed by OJA. OJA is a newly incorporated Florida corporation, 85.73%-owned by RCP, 0.23%-owned by RCA and 14.04%-owned by RCMF. To date, OJA has not conducted any business other than that incident to its formation, the purchase of the BHG Shares and the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement (as hereinafter defined) and the transactions contemplated thereunder. The address of OJA's principal business and principal office is 650 Madison Avenue, 26th Floor, New York, New York 10022. Information regarding the directors and executive officers of OJA is set forth on Schedule II attached hereto, which Schedule is hereby incorporated by reference. Except as set forth on Schedule II, all such persons are citizens of the United States. During the last five years, the Reporting Persons or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any person named in Schedule II has not been (a) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is amended to add the following paragraph at the end of paragraph one: On September 24, RCG, through OJA, exercised the option granted to it pursuant to the Reservoir Letter of Intent (and any extensions thereof) and purchased the BHG Page 9 of 15 Pages 10 Shares with working capital for an aggregate cost of $37,839,620. At the time of the Merger, Parent may refinance such purchase with debt secured by grove-related assets. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended to add the following paragraph at the end of paragraph ten: On September 27, 1999, pursuant to the Reservoir Letter of Intent, the Extension Letter, the Second Extension Letter and the Third Extension Letter, RCG, through OJA, acquired 5,405,660 shares (52.4%) of the Company from BHG for a cash price of $7.00 per BHG Share. At the same time, RCP, RCMF, RCA and OJA entered into a Merger Agreement with the Company (the Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 5 and is incorporated by reference). The Merger Agreement provides for a cash tender offer by OJA (the "Offer"), which will commence on October 1, 1999, to acquire any and all the outstanding common shares of the Company, not owned by OJA, at $7.00 per share in cash for a total of approximately $34 million. Under the Merger Agreement, following the Offer, OJA would merge with and into the Company, with each remaining share not held by OJA exchanged for $7.00 per share. The Merger Agreement gives RCA, RCP, RCMF and OJA the right to appoint a majority of the Company's Board of Directors; however, at this date, they have no plans to exercise this right. At the time the Merger Agreement was signed, the Company and Pasco entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement whereby a subsidiary of Pasco purchased and paid for the assets and assumed certain liabilities associated with the Company's food service business, including the working capital related thereto for approximately $18 million, plus the cost of such working capital. Following the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, including the approval of a majority of the Company's shareholders, Pasco will then acquire Orange-co's citrus processing and packing business, including certain working capital related thereto. In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, RCA, RCP, RCMF and OJA entered into an Agreement with Pasco (the "Agreement"; the Agreement is attached as Exhibit 6 and is incorporated by reference) pursuant to which they agreed to vote all Shares in favor of the Asset Purchase Agreement. In addition, RCA, RCP, RCMF and OJA agreed to (i) refrain from taking any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent, interfere with or materially delay, the consummation of the Merger, and (ii) at any time after January 1, 2000, upon request of Pasco, cause the Company to waive the condition in the Asset Purchase Agreement that the Merger be consummated prior to the final closing under the Asset Purchase Agreement. RCA, RCP, RCMF and OJA also agreed to refrain from taking any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially interfere with or materially delay (a) the Company's compliance with or performance of any of its covenants and agreements set Page 10 of 15 Pages 11 forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement or related documents or (b) the satisfaction of conditions to Pasco's obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement. In addition, until the final closing under the Asset Purchase Agreement, OJA agreed not to dispose of any of its Shares or any interest therein, except in each case to a transferee or pledgee who agrees pursuant to an instrument reasonably satisfactory to Pasco to become bound by the obligations of OJA under the Agreement upon transfer or foreclosure. RCA, RCP, RCMF and Purchaser also agreed that if on or before January 1, 2000 the Company has not caused a meeting of shareholders of the Company to have been held and proxy or information materials required in connection therewith to be mailed, then they will promptly cause the Company to take such actions to the extent required to consummate the Asset Purchase Agreement. Also, the Company announced that the Fruit Purchase Agreement between BHGI and Pasco and the Consulting and Non-Compete Agreement between Pasco and BHGIII were entered into on the same date that the Merger Agreement, the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Side Agreement were executed. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on September 27, 1999, the Company paid the outstanding balance of $21,774,689 (including interest and premium) on its loan from John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company. On September 16, 1999, Farm Credit of Southwest Florida, ACA agreed to consent to and waive, subject to certain conditions, any defaults under either the loan agreement dated April 19, 1993 by and between Farm Credit and the Company and all amendments thereto and the loan agreement made in conjunction with loans dated June 30, 1998 by and between Farm Credit of South Florida, ACA and the Company, caused by the Merger Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by either agreement. On September 23, 1999, the Company received a letter from SunTrust Bank, Central Florida, N.A., pursuant to which SunTrust Bank agreed, subject to certain conditions, to temporarily waive certain sections of the loan agreement, dated as of June 16, 1993 by and among SunTrust Bank and the Company, that would trigger a default under such agreement if the transactions contemplated by either the Merger Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement occurred without such a waiver. As a condition to such temporary waiver, the Company was required to provide SunTrust Bank with a mortgage lien and security interest in certain processing plant and related assets, which mortgage will be recorded if the entire outstanding principal balance of the lien, together with accrued but unpaid interest is not paid in full by November 30, 1999. Currently, the Company's Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). The purchase of the Shares pursuant to the Offer may and the merger will cause the Shares to be delisted under the published guidelines of the NYSE. The Company's Common Stock is currently registered under the Exchange Act. The purchase of the Shares pursuant to the Offer may and the merger will result in the Common Stock becoming eligible for deregistration under the Exchange Act. Registration of the Shares may be terminated upon application by the Company to the Commission if its Common Stock is not listed on a "national securities exchange" and there are fewer than 300 record holders of such stock.

("BHGI"), the Griffin Family Limited Partnership ("GFLP"), Dorothy Brown Griffin ("DBG") and Ben Hill Griffin, Inc. ("BHG Inc." and, together with BHG III, BHGI, GFLP and DBG, "BHG"), constituting 52.4% of the outstanding Company Common Stock, for a cash price of $7.00 per share (the "BHG Purchase") and the BHG Purchase has been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; WHEREAS, on the date hereof the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with Pasco Acquisition, Inc. ("Pasco") pursuant to which the Company, subject to certain conditions, agreed to sell to Pasco and Pasco agreed to purchase from the Company certain assets and associated liabilities of the Company; WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of Sub and the Company have each determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of their respective stockholders to consummate, and have approved, the business combination transaction provided for herein in which (i) Sub would make a cash tender offer to acquire all of the other issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and (ii) subsequently Sub would merge with and into the Company and the Company would become a subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"); WHEREAS, Parent, Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and also to prescribe various conditions to the consummation of such transactions; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I THE OFFER 1.01 The Offer. (a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 9.01 and none of the events set forth in Annex A hereto shall have occurred and be continuing, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than five business days, after the date hereof, Parent shall cause Sub to, and Sub shall, commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (such Act 9 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder being referred to herein as the "Exchange Act")) a tender offer (the "Offer") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock for $7.00 per share (such amount, or any greater amount per share paid pursuant to the Offer, the "Per Share Amount") net to the seller in cash. The obligation of Sub to consummate the Offer and to accept for payment and to pay for shares of Company Common Stock tendered pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the conditions set forth in Annex A hereto. Sub expressly reserves the right to waive any such condition, to increase the Per Share Amount and to make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change may be made which (i) decreases the Per Share Amount, (ii) changes the form of consideration to be paid in the Offer, (iii) reduces the number of shares of Company Common Stock sought to be purchased in the Offer, (iv) imposes conditions to the Offer in addition to those set forth in Annex A hereto, (v) extends the expiration date of the Offer or (vi) otherwise alters or amends any term of the Offer in any manner adverse to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock; provided, however, that the Offer may be extended (1) for any period to the extent required by law or by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") or the staff thereof applicable to the Offer, and (2) for up to ten business days after the initially scheduled expiration date if upon any expiration of the Offer any condition to the Offer shall not be satisfied and there is a reasonable basis to believe that such condition could be satisfied within such ten business day period. Assuming the prior satisfaction or waiver of the conditions of the Offer and subject to the foregoing right to extend the Offer, Sub shall pay for shares of Company Common Stock tendered pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable after termination thereof. (b) As soon as practicable on the date of commencement of the Offer, Sub shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 14D-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act (together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the "Schedule 14D-1") with respect to the Offer, and take such steps as are reasonably necessary to cause the Offer to Purchase (as defined below) to be disseminated to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. The Schedule 14D-1 shall contain an offer to purchase (the "Offer to Purchase") and forms of the related letter of transmittal and any related summary advertisement (the Schedule 14D-1, the Offer to Purchase and such other documents, together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the "Offer Documents"). Parent, Sub and the Company shall correct promptly any information provided by any of them for use in the Offer Documents which shall have become false or misleading, and Parent and Sub shall take all steps necessary to cause the Schedule 14D-1 as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and the other Offer Documents as so corrected to be disseminated to holders of shares of Company Common Stock, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. The Company and its counsel shall be given an opportunity to review and comment on the Offer Documents prior to their being filed with the SEC, and Parent and Sub will provide the Company and its counsel in writing with any comments that Parent or Sub receives from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents promptly after receipt of any such comments. (c) Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to Sub on a timely basis the funds necessary to accept for payment, and pay for, any shares of Company Common Stock that Sub becomes obligated to accept for payment, and pay for, pursuant to the Offer. 2 10 1.02 Company Actions.

The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida (the "Secretary of State"), or at such other time as Sub and the Company shall agree should be specified in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being hereinafter referred to as the "Effective Time"). 2.04 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. At the Effective Time, (i) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by law and such Certificate of Incorporation, provided that the name of Sub shall be changed to the name of the Company, and (ii) the Bylaws of Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such Bylaws. 2.05 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Sub and the officers of Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors and officers, respectively, of the Surviving Corporation until their successors shall have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. 5 13 2.06 Effects of the Merger.

Each party hereto will, either prior to or after the Effective Time, execute such further documents, instruments, deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and take such further actions as may reasonably be requested by one or more of the others to consummate the Merger, to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all assets, properties, privileges, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of either of the Constituent Corporations or to effect the other purposes of this Agreement. ARTICLE III CONVERSION OF SHARES 3.01 Conversion of Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof: (a) Capital Stock of Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of the common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Sub ("Sub Common Stock") shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.50 per share, of the Surviving Corporation ("Surviving Corporation Common Stock"). Each certificate representing outstanding shares of Sub Common Stock shall at the Effective Time represent an equal number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock. (b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Stock Owned by Parent and Subsidiaries. All shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury stock and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, Sub or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and no stock of Parent or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor. (c) Exchange Ratio for Company Common Stock. (i) Each issued and outstanding share of Company Common Stock (other than shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 3.01(b) and other than Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive $7.00 in cash (the "Merger Price"). (ii) All shares of Company Common Stock converted in accordance with paragraph (i) of this Section 3.01(c) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Price per share, upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 3.02, without interest. (d) Dissenting Shares. (i) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each outstanding share of Company Common Stock the holder of which has not voted in favor of the Merger, has perfected such holder's right to an appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the FBCA and has not effectively 6 14 withdrawn or lost such right to appraisal (a "Dissenting Share") shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Price pursuant to Section 3.01(c), but the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the applicable provisions of the FBCA; provided, however, that any Dissenting Share held by a person at the Effective Time who shall, after the Effective Time, withdraw the demand for appraisal or lose the right of appraisal, in either case pursuant to the FBCA, shall be deemed to be converted into, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Price pursuant to Section 3.01(c). (ii) The Company shall give Parent (x) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, withdrawals of demands for appraisal and any other instruments served pursuant to the applicable provisions of the FBCA relating to the appraisal process received by the Company and (y) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the FBCA. The Company will not voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal and will not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, settle or offer to settle any such demands. (e) Stock Option Plan. Each option to acquire a share of Company Common Stock outstanding under the Company's 1987 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "1987 Company Option Plan") shall be changed into an amount in cash in respect of each share of 1987 Company Common Stock subject to such option (the "Option Amount") equal to the Merger Price less the purchase price therefor pursuant to the Company Option Plan and the related stock option agreements executed pursuant thereto. On the Closing Date, the Company shall deposit in a bank account not within the Company's control an amount of cash equal to the Option Amount for each option then outstanding under the 1987 Company Option Plan (subject to any applicable withholding tax), together with instructions that such cash be promptly distributed following the Effective Time to the holders of such options in accordance with this Section. 3.02 Exchange of Certificates. (a) Payment Agent. At the Effective Time, Parent shall make available to the Surviving Corporation for deposit with a bank or trust company designated before the Closing Date by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the "Payment Agent") a cash amount equal to the aggregate Merger Price to which holders of shares of Company Common Stock shall be entitled upon consummation of the Merger, to be held for the benefit of and distributed to such holders in accordance with this Section. The Payment Agent shall agree to hold such funds (such funds, together with earnings thereon, being referred to herein as the "Payment Fund") for delivery as contemplated by this Section and upon such additional terms as may be agreed upon by the Payment Agent, the Company and Parent. If for any reason (including losses) the Payment Fund is inadequate to pay the cash amounts to which holders of shares of Company Common Stock shall be entitled, Parent shall in any event remain liable, and shall make available to the Surviving Corporation additional funds, for the payment thereof. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose except as expressly provided in this Agreement. (b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Payment Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (the "Certificates") whose shares are 7 15 converted pursuant to Section 3.01(c) into the right to receive the Merger Price (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Payment Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as the Surviving Corporation may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Price. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Payment Agent, together with such letter of transmittal duly executed and completed in accordance with its terms, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a check representing the Merger Price per share of Company Common Stock represented thereby, which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In no event shall the holder of any Certificate be entitled to receive interest on any funds to be received in the Merger, including any interest accrued in respect of the Payment Fund. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Price may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Company Common Stock is presented to the Payment Agent accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.02(b), each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Price per share of Company Common Stock represented thereby as contemplated by this Article III. (c) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All cash paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock represented thereby. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Section. (d) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund which remains undistributed to the stockholders of the Company for six months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any stockholders of the Company who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar laws) as general creditors for payment of their claim for the Merger Price per share. Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for cash representing the Merger Price delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. (e) Withholding Rights. Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Price otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock such amounts as Parent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are 8 16 so withheld by Parent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent.

No requests for waivers of the time to assess any taxes against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries have been granted or are pending, except for requests with respect to such taxes as are set forth in Section 4.12(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter and which have been adequately reserved for in the most recent financial statements contained in the Company SEC Reports, or, to the extent not adequately reserved, the assessment of which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

The only severance agreements or severance policies applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are the agreements and policies specifically referred to in Section 4.13 of the Company Disclosure Letter. Each Company Employee Benefit Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified, has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS and nothing has changed that could adversely affect such termination.
