Shares  through  ownership  of  an interest in, and  positions  as  members  and
officers  of the General Partner.  Eric D. Hovde also owns Shares of the  Issuer
directly.   Eric D. Hovde and Steven D. Hovde are also directors  and  executive

disposition of the Shares beneficially owned by the Limited Partnership are made
by  the General Partner acting through its chief executive officer or president.
As  such,  the  Limited  Partnership and the General Partner  share  voting  and
