exercise  voting powers over the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock held in the

Issuer's  Common Stock held by the UMBFC ESOP are voted in the discretion of the
UMBFC ESOP Administrative Committee. The shares of Issuer's Common Stock held by
the  UMBFC  ESOP  are  disposed  of  in  the   discretion   of  the  UMBFC  ESOP
Administrative  Committee,  but if the  Administrative  Committee  does not give
directions  to UMB with  respect to a required  disposition  decision,  UMB,  as

               participants.

          (b)  Percent of Class: 8.71%

               (i)  sole power to vote or to direct the vote: -0-

               (ii) shared power to vote or to direct the vote: -0-

                    participants.

Stock including the shares held by the UMBFC ESOP, of which UMB is trustee,  and
shares of Common Stock held in other  capacities.  As trustee of the UMBFC ESOP,
UMB may be deemed to have shared dispositive power over the UMBFC ESOP shares of
Common Stock, although UMB disclaims beneficial ownership over such shares. With
respect to the shares of Common Stock held in other capacities,  UMB may also be
deemed to have either sole or shared voting power over certain  shares of Common
Stock and/or  either sole or shared  dispositive  power over  certain  shares of
Common Stock.  UMB  disclaims  beneficial  ownership  over any and all shares of
Common Stock held in other capacities as well as shares held by UMB in custodial
accounts over which UMB has no voting or dispositive powers.

         Therefore, UMB may be deemed to beneficially own shares of the Issuer's
Common Stock as follows:

          (a)  Amount Beneficially  Owned:  3,085,308.  Beneficial  ownership is

                    for which UMB is sole  fiduciary;  however,  UMB has elected
                    not to vote such shares and disclaims  beneficial  ownership
                    of them.

               (ii) shared power to vote or to direct the vote:  851,561.  These
                    shares may be voted only in conjunction with co-fiduciaries.

                    shares.
