KKR Associates, L.P., a New York limited partnership (KKR Associates), and Marley G.P., Inc., a Delaware corporation (Marley and, together with KKR Associates, the Reporting Persons) hereby amend, as set forth below, their Statement on Schedule 13D dated August 13, 1997 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) on August 25, 1997 (the Statement), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Statement on Schedule 13D dated May 24, 2002 filed with the Commission on May 28, 2002 (Amendment No. 1), relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Layne Christensen Company, a Delaware corporation (the Company). Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Statement and Amendment No. 1.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company.
The response to Item 5 is amended as follows:
On June 4, 2002, KKR Associates sold an aggregate of 61,564 shares of Common Stock and Marley sold an aggregate of 53,436 shares of Common Stock, in each case at a per share price of $10.00 pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Each of these sales was effected on the Nasdaq National Market. As of June 4, 2002, Marley owned no shares of Common Stock and, as a result, ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed by the Company on May 24, 2002 will be reduced by the 115,000 shares of Common Stock sold by the Reporting Persons, as described in this Item 5.
