Explanation of Responses:
(1) As previously reported on the statement for June 1998, consideration for 200,000 shares was paid on June 8, 1998. No
shares were issued at that time, but were to be issued to Global Natural Acquisitions, L.L.C., (the "LLC"), a limited
liability company which had yet to be formed, and which was subsequently organized as an Illinois limited liability company
pursuant to Articles of Organization filed with the Illinois Secretary of State on July 13, 1998. David J. O'Gorman will be a
member of the LLC and will share investment control over the LLC's portfolio securities.
Prior to the issuance of any shares, and pursuant to the terms of a management agreement the purchase price for such shares was
adjusted from $2.50 per share to $2.25 per share, increasing the number of shares to be acquired from 200,000 to 222,222.
The 222,222 shares were issued on September 10, 1998 to Global Natural Brands, Ltd., an Illinois corporation and an affiliate
of the LLC. David J. O'Gorman will be a shareholder, officer and director of Global Natural Brands, Ltd. and will share
investment control over the company's portfolio securities. It is anticipated that all 222,222 shares will be transferred to
the LLC in the near future.
