NOTES

(1) On May 11, 2000, ZG Nevada Limited  Partnership ("ZG  Partnership")  entered into a binding term sheet outlining the terms
of, and which  obligated ZG  Partnership  to enter into forward sale  arrangements  with respect to up to 1,000,000  shares of
Common Stock.  Dr. Bryan J. Zwan ("Zwan") is the sole shareholder and executive  officer of ZG Nevada,  Inc., the sole General
Partner of ZG  Partnership.  Zwan is also the sole  limited  partner  of ZG  Partnership.  It is anticipated that on  or about
June 13, 2000, ZG  Partnership will enter into a forward  sale  agreement  ("Agreement  IV")  relating to up to 475,000 shares
(the "Base  Amount") of Common Stock. ZG Partnership's  obligation to enter into forward sale arrangements  with respect to an
additional  525,000 shares has terminated.  Agreement  IV provides that ZG  Partnership will deliver on the fourth anniversary
of the execution of Agreement IV (the "Maturity Date") a number of shares of Common Stock (or, at the option of ZG Partnership,
the cash equivalent of such  shares) equal  to the product of (i) the  Base Amount  and (ii) the Exchange Rate, which will be
determined as follows:

(a) If the average  closing  price (the  "Maturity  Price") of the Common Stock on the 20 trading  days  beginning 30 trading days
    prior  to the  Maturity  Date  is  less  than  or  equal  to  $64.5697  (the  "Issue  Price"),  the
    Exchange Rate will be one;

(b) If the Maturity Price is greater than the Issue Price but less than $77.4837 (the "Threshold  Price"),  the Exchange Rate will
     be equal to the Issue Price divided by the Maturity Price; and

(c) If the Maturity Price is equal to or greater than the Threshold Price, the Exchange Rate will be .8333.

In consideration therefor, ZG Partnership will receive a purchase price of $24,094,001.

(2) These 12,601,750 shares of Common Stock were owned by ZG Partnership as of the end of May, 2000.

(3) Upon execution of Agreement IV, 2,840,000 shares of Common Stock  beneficially  owned by ZG Partnership will be subject to
forward sale  agreements,  of which 475,000  shares will be  subject to Agreement IV. See note (1).  The  remaining  2,365,000
shares are  subject to forward  sale agreements which were previously reported on  the Reporting Person's Form 4 for the month
ending February, 2000.

(4) On December 8, 1999,  Zwan  entered  into a forward  sale  agreement  (the "Zwan  Agreement")  relating to up to 1,000,000
shares (the "Base  Amount") of Common  Stock.  The Zwan  Agreement  provides  that Zwan will  deliver on December 8, 2004 (the
"Maturity  Date") a number of shares of Common Stock (or, at the option of Zwan, the cash  equivalent of such shares) equal to
the product of (i) the Base Amount and (ii) the Exchange Rate, which will be determined as follows:

(a) If the average  closing  price (the  "Maturity  Price") of the Common Stock on the 20 trading  days  beginning 30 trading days
    prior to the  Maturity  Date is less than or equal to $31.5505  (the "Issue  Price"),  the Exchange
    Rate will be one;

(b) If the Maturity Price is greater than the Issue Price but less than $37.8606 (the "Threshold  Price"),  the Exchange Rate will
    be equal to the Issue Price divided by the Maturity Price; and

(c) If the Maturity Price is equal to or greater than the Threshold Price, the Exchange Rate will be .8333.

In consideration therefor, Zwan received a purchase price of $23,790,580.
