NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1999
NOTE 1: SELECTED DISCLOSURES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are for
interim periods, do not include all disclosures provided in the annual
consolidated financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1998 Annual Report
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-KSB.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature)
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reporting amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

1998, DSS and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal return separate from
THE.
At June 30, 1999 the Company and its subsidiaries had operating loss
carryforwards available to reduce future state and federal taxable income. These

NOTE 8: EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net income (loss) per share-basic is computed by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. Net income (loss) per share-diluted reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if options or other contracts to issue common stock
were exercised into common stock. The Treasury Stock method is used in the
calculation of the dilutive effect of the exercise of options.
The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) per share - basic and
diluted for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998:
6/30/99 6/30/98
Net income (loss) - basic and diluted $ 257,418 $ (153,058)

NOTE 9: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 13, 1999, the Company issued an additional 357.5 shares of 12% Series B
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Stock") with no par value per share
and a stated value of $2,000 per share. The Company received $673,300, which was
net of a selling commission. The Company will have other expenses, not yet
determined, that are associated with the offering. The Company will issue an
additional 367.5 shares under the same terms to the same shareholders under
certain conditions.
The Company completed the permanent financing on two 60-unit facilities on July
30, 1999. As part of the transaction those facilities were sold by Taylor House
Enterprises to a third party not-for-profit organization. The Company has a
management contract with the not-for-profit to manage the facilities for 10
years. The company agreed to provide loans to cover operating deficits at two
properties as needed during the rent-up process. To further collateralize the
commitment the Company obtained a $500,000 letter of credit from a bank.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
THE DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS BELOW SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INTERIM
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE COMPANY AND NOTES THERETO APPEARING ELSEWHERE IN
THIS REPORT AND THE FORM 10-KSB FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AS FILED
WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.
OVERVIEW
Diversified Senior Services, Inc. (the "Company") was formed in May 1996 as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Taylor House Enterprises, Limited ("THE") and began
operations in July 1996. The Company manages apartments, primarily for seniors,
develops and manages assisted living properties and develops and manages
independent living properties. All properties are targeted for the low and
moderate income residents.
In July 1996 the Company acquired Residential Properties Management, Inc.
("RPM"), a wholly owned subsidiary of THE. RPM was formed in March 1989 to
manage government subsidized multi-family and elderly residential rental
apartments. On January 14, 1998, the Company completed its initial public
offering. On February 16, 1998, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary,
DSS Funding, Inc. ("DSSF"), a North Carolina corporation, for the purpose of
securing permanent financing for the properties which the Company develops or
acquires for third party owners. On July 22, 1998, the Company formed a wholly
owned subsidiary, Diversified Senior Services of Virginia, Inc. ("DSSVA"), a
Virginia corporation, for the purpose of conducting development and management
of properties in Virginia.
The Company anticipates a moderate growth in the number of apartment units
managed and also expects that income will increase due to inflationary effects
on rents. All personnel located at the apartments who manage the apartments and
perform maintenance are employees of the Company. However, the apartments
reimburse the Company for the services of the site personnel. The Company
anticipates a moderate growth in reimbursement income as a result of increases
in salaries of site personnel and an increase in the number of apartment
complexes under management.
The Company began offering home care services in August 1996 at selected
apartment locations. The Company sold the home care business effective June 1,
1999 to an independent home care provider to exercise a strategy to expand the
availability of services to its managed properties.
The Company is in the process of developing 60-unit assisted living residences
in North Carolina and 30-unit independent senior housing residences with
services throughout the Southeast. As of August 10, 1999, the Company has five
60-unit properties in the construction process, and an additional four sites
approved under North Carolina's moratorium on new assisted living facilities.
The construction process is estimated to be nine to twelve months for each
60-unit assisted living residence. The first 60- unit assisted living facility
developed by the Company commenced operations in June, 1999. The Company began
managing an assisted living property for an affiliated owner in October 1998.
The property, located in South Boston, Virginia, is licensed for up to 64
residents but currently configured for 43 residents. It was completed in April
1998. The Company will provide working capital to this facility to cover
operating deficits while the Company is pursuing permanent financing. With
respect to the 30 unit residences, the Company has two sites under construction,
two sites ready to begin construction, and an additional two sites under
control, all of which have positive feasibility. The sites are in Virginia,
South Carolina and North Carolina. Once construction of these 60-unit and
30-unit residences is completed, the Company will begin to recognize management
fee income for the properties. The pace of development and construction depends
upon the success of the Company in obtaining construction financing and
permanent financing for the properties. There can be no assurance that the
Company will consummate such financing on a regular, timely schedule, and if
alternative financing cannot be arranged on terms acceptable to the Company, the
Company may not be able to produce a pipeline of developed properties on a
regular basis as scheduled. Management believes that in the future the
development and management of assisted living facilities and residences for the
elderly will provide the vast majority of the Company's revenues and profits.
The Company is developing 30-unit and 60-unit properties for third party owners.
The Company recognizes development fee income on the percentage of completion
basis. Development costs are paid by the Company as incurred. Other development
costs are reimbursed by the purchaser when the property is sold. If a site is
abandoned, all development costs associated with that property are written off.
Most of the operating expenses of the Company are related to the personnel
directly performing the management services and the corporate management staff.
Between 70% and 90% of the expenses are for salaries, benefits and payroll
taxes. The remaining expenses are primarily administrative expenses that support
the activities of the personnel such as travel, rent, telephone and office
expenses. Since the Company's inception, the operating staff increases have been
due primarily to the entrance of the Company into the home care business.
However, the corporate staff has grown over that same period of time because of
the need to have adequate personnel in place to support the development effort.
Management expects that expenses associated with operating personnel will
continue to increase significantly as the Company expands, but management does
not expect to increase the number of corporate staff significantly during the
next several years.
DSS, RPM and DSSF are incorporated in North Carolina, and DSSVA is incorporated
in Virginia and, as C corporations, file their federal income tax returns as
part of a consolidated group. Prior to the initial public offering, DSS and RPM
filed their federal income tax returns as part of THE's consolidated group. An
income tax benefit has been recorded in 1996 and 1997 since the losses of DSS
and RPM were applied to income in THE's consolidated group. DSS, RPM and DSSF
file separate state returns since state income tax regulations do not permit
filing consolidated returns.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to the Three and Six Months
Ended June 30, 1998
INCOME Total income increased $1,200,636 to $2,757,060 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 from $1,556,424 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Total
income increased $238,469 to $1,211,642 for the three months ended June 30, 1999
from $973,173 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was the net
effect of increases in development fees recognized in 1999, reimbursement income
and other income and decreases in management fees and home care fees.
MANAGEMENT FEES. Management fees decreased $28,678 to $378,601 for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 from $407,279 for the six months ended June 30, 1998.
For the three months ended June 30, 1999, management fees decreased $14,304 to
$189,443 compared to $203,747 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. On July
31, 1998 the Company sold the management rights for 361 units, primarily
multi-family, which generated management fees of approximately $10,500 per
month. The Company expects growth in fee income as the developed assisted living
and independent living properties are completed and rented.
REIMBURSEMENT INCOME. Reimbursement income increased $136,728, to $804,001 for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $667,273 for the six months ended June
30, 1998. Reimbursement income was $435,694 and $365,555 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase was the result of
income received from properties for personnel hired to manage the assisted
living facility in Virginia and the two 60-unit assisted living facilities
developed by the Company that began accepting residents in June and July. The
Company expects increases in reimbursement income as the number of properties
under management increases.
DEVELOPMENT FEES. Development fees increased $969,326 to $1,286,332 for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 from $317,006 for the six months ended June 30,1998.
Development fees were $386,705 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared
to $317,006 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The income is recognized
on a percentage of completion basis on the seven 60-unit assisted living
facilities and the four 30-unit independent senior housing residences currently
being developed by the Company. The Company expects development fee income to be
cyclical, depending on the availability of both construction and permanent
financing at reasonable rates.
OPERATING EXPENSES Operating expenses increased $662,792 to $2,467,116 for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 from $1,804,324 for the six months ended June 30,
1998. For the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, operating expenses were
$1,096,429 and $951,492, respectively. The increase is due to personnel related
expenses and administrative expenses.
PERSONNEL EXPENSE. Personnel expense increased $287,603 to $1,690,681for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 from $1,403,078 for the six months ended June 30,
1998. Personnel expense was $873,063 for the three months ended June 30, 1999
compared to $732,897 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Site related
personnel expense increased $136,728 for the six months due to the increase in
personnel expense at the Virginia facility and the two new 60-unit facilities,
as mentioned above. Personnel expenses also increased due to the increased
development activity. The Company expects increases in personnel expense in
future periods depending upon increases in management and development activity.
ADMINISTRATION AND OTHER EXPENSES. Administration and other expenses increased
$369,477 to $736,712 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $367,235 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998. For the three months ended June 30, 1999 and
1998, administration and other expenses were $203,400 and $200,467,
respectively. The increase reflects increases in the assisted living and
independent senior housing development activity, and expenses related to
operating the public company. The Company expects further increases in
administrative expenses as the number of assisted living and independent senior
housing properties managed increases for support of direct management of the
properties, but only minor increases attributable to corporate management of the
Company.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES. The Company earned $28,227 and $100,520 in interest
income from the investment of cash and cash equivalents during the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and had an unrealized loss of
$38,721 on funds held for development at June 30, 1999. The decrease is due to
the decreased amount of funds held for development at June 30, 1999 compared to
June 30, 1998. The Company expects interest income from two sources in future
periods. As the result of the issuance of preferred stock, the company will have
additional funds held for development that will be invested in liquid
investments. Second, the Company will begin recognizing a return on funds loaned
to the owners of properties currently being developed. Interest expense of
$5,678 was incurred in the six months ended June 30, 1998 on a bank loan, which
was paid off with proceeds from the equity offering completed in January 1998.
NET INCOME (LOSS). The net income increased $467,681 to $314,623 for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 from a net loss of $153,058 for the six months ended
June 30, 1998. The increase was due to the increase in operating income. For
the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, net income was $111,665 and
$90,855, respectively.
PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDENDS. On May 3, 1999, the Company issued 1,500 shares of
12% Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock with no par value per share
and a stated value of $2,000 per share. The Stock pays a 12% dividend
semiannually and has a liquidation preference superior to all stock, common or
preferred, currently issued and outstanding. Preferred stock dividends were
$57,205 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
NET INCOME (LOSS) AVAILABLE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS. The net income (loss)
available to common shareholders increased $410,476 ($.13 per share) to $257,418
($.08) per share for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from a net loss of
$153,058 ($.05 loss per share) for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The
increase was due to the net effect of an increase in operating income offset by
the preferred stock dividends. For the three months ended June 30, 1999 and
1998, net income available for common shareholders was $54,460 ($0.02) per
share) and $90,855 ($.03 per share), respectively. The Company expects to break
even until properties currently being developed are completed and reach
stabilized occupancy.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 1998
The Company had current assets of $807,521 on June 30, 1999 and $1,056,003 on
December 31, 1998. The primary current asset on December 31, 1998 was
investments held for development of $819,074. On June 30, 1999 the balance was
$125,731, due to the Company's increased development activity. Prepaid expenses
and other increased from $90,858 to $196,803 due primarily to the payment of
certain operating expenses in the first six months that will be charged during
the current year.
Development costs decreased to $420,950 at June 30, 1999 from $730,604 at
December 31, 1998. During the initial stages of development, certain development
costs are capitalized. When development fee income is recognized on a certain
property, that property's associated costs become receivable from either THE, on
a temporary basis, or from the permanent owner. Development costs will either be
recouped with the successful completion of a property or written off if a site
is abandoned.
Development fees and costs due from properties currently held by THE increased
to $6,376,338 at June 30, 1999 from $2,603,656 at December 31, 1998. The
increase is due to development fees and reimbursable costs on properties
currently being developed that are due to the Company.
Accounts receivable-affiliates increased to $504,254 at June 30, 1999 from
$489,669 at December 31, 1998. The increase is due to advances made to an
affiliate for operations at the Virginia facility.
Total liabilities increased $309,671 to $741,213 at June 30, 1999 from $431,542
at December 31, 1998 due primarily to payments of commitments to affiliates with
properties under construction.
Shareholder's equity increased to $7,471,994 at June 30, 1999 from $4,581,826 at
December 31, 1998. The increase was the net effect of the proceeds of $2,687,532
from the issuance of preferred stock, a decrease in unrealized gains on
investment securities of $54,782 and the decrease in accumulated deficit due to
the net income of $257,418.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has operated, and expects to continue to operate, on a negative cash
flow basis due to start-up expenses and length of the development cycle.
Currently, the Company's primary cash requirements include covering operating
deficits and development expenses related to the development, construction and
fill-up of 60 unit assisted living residences and 30 unit independent senior
housing residences with services.
The net proceeds of the initial public offering were used to pay off the
outstanding balance under the bank line of credit, to provide $3.5 million in
development working capital for the assisted living and independent living
projects and for general corporate purposes. The proceeds from the initial
public offering designated for development were fully invested in assisted
living and in dependent living properties by the end of the first quarter of
1999. The proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock during the second, third
and fourth quarters will provide additional development working capital. The
company anticipates that the proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock, the
collection of development fees and costs receivable, together with construction
funds available for each facility, will be sufficient to complete the current
development pipeline. Future development will require additional debt or equity
financing. The Company currently has several sources of potential funding and
does not anticipate that liquidity demands will not be met. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain financing on a favorable or
timely basis. The type, timing and terms of financing selected by the Company
will depend on its cash needs, the availability of other financing sources and
the prevailing conditions in the financial markets.
The Company is the guarantor on the construction loans for the properties
currently under construction owned by THE.
INFLATION AND INTEREST RATES
Inflation has minimal impact on the daily operations of the Company. Increases
in salaries and administrative expenses are offset by increases in management
fees that are computed as a percentage of rent and resident service fees.
Increases in resident service fees may lag behind inflation since the amount of
the fee is based on a cost reimbursement by public sources. Except for the lag
time, however, the Company expects the reimbursement to keep pace with
inflation.
The primary concern regarding inflation is interest rate fluctuations. High
interest rates would increase the cost of building new facilities and could slow
down the Company's development plans.
YEAR 2000
Many currently installed computer systems and software are coded to accept only
two digit entries in the date code filed. Beginning the year 2000, these date
code fields will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish twenty-first
century dates from twentieth century dates. As a result, within the next
eighteen months, computer systems and/or software used by many companies may
need to be upgraded to comply with such "Year 2000" requirements.
The Company has developed plans to modify its computer information systems
enabling proper processing of data relating to the year 2000 and beyond. The
Company has been informed by Electronic Data System ("EDS"), the paying agent
for the North Carolina Medicaid program, that the National Electronic Claims
Submission ("NECS") software developed by EDS for electronic claims submission
by North Carolina Medicaid providers, is not currently Year 2000 compliant.
Compliance is anticipated by September 1999. Medicaid revenues do not currently
constitute a material portion of the Company's revenues; but as additional
assisted living residences are added to the Company's management portfolio, the
Medicaid revenues will increase. All other computer programs currently in use by
the Company have been upgraded to be Year 2000 compliant.
While there can be no assurance that Year 2000 matters will be satisfactorily
identified and resolved, the Company currently believes that Year 2000 issues
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. The possibility exists
that isolated incidents of a Year 2000 nature could affect individual properties
managed by the Company, but the Company does not anticipate that such
incident(s) would have a material impact on the Company's business or
operations. The Company is in the process of contacting customers, vendors and
service providers to determine which of them is affected by the year 2000
problem, and to what extent, in order to assess the potential impact on the
Company.
CERTAIN ACCOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
SFAS NO. 123
In October 1995, FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"). SFAS No. 123 establishes financial accounting
and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. Those plans
include all arrangements by which employees receive shares of stock or other
equity instruments of the employer or the employer incurs liabilities to
employees in amounts based on the price of the employer's stock. Examples are
stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock awards, and stock
appreciation rights. This statement also applies to transactions in which an
entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods or services from
non-employees. Those transactions must be accounted for, or at least disclosed
in the case of stock options, based on the fair value of the consideration
received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more
reliably measurable. The accounting requirements of SFAS No. 123 are effective
for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995, or
for an earlier fiscal year for which SFAS No. 123 is initially adopted for
recognizing compensation cost. The statement permits a company to choose either
a new fair value-based method or the current APB Opinion No. 25 intrinsic
value-based method of accounting for its stock-based compensation arrangements.
The Company adopted its Stock Incentive Plan effective January 1, 1997. During
1998, the Company granted 47,000 stock options at an exercise price ranging from
$4.75 to $5.225, the market value of the shares at the date of grant. The stock
options are 100% vested and have a five-year term. Warrants for 45,000 shares
were issued with a four-year term, a one-year vesting schedule and exercise
prices ranging from $6.00 to $9.00 per share. Warrants for 50,000 shares have a
four-year term, one year vesting schedule and an exercise price of $6.75 per
share. At December 31, 1998, a total of 142,000 stock options and warrants are
outstanding, 1,400 common shares have been issued and 356,600 shares are
available for granting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
(c) Sales of Unregistered Securities.
As of May 3, 1999, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement") with certain investors contemplating a potential funding
of up to $4.450 million (the "Funding"). The Funding provides for the private
placement by the Company of up to 2,225 shares of 12% Series B Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") convertible into
shares of the Company's Common Stock, no par value (the "Common Stock").
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall issue and sell to the
investors the Series B Preferred Stock in three tranches in the following
amounts: (i) $3,000,000 of the stated value of the Series B Preferred Stock in
the first tranche; (ii) $715,000 of the stated value of the Series B Preferred
Stock in the second tranche; and (iii) $735,000 of the stated value of the
Series B Preferred Stock in the third tranche. The first tranche was funded at
the signing of the Purchase Agreement; the second tranche will be funded within
10 days of the Company filing a resale registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock
and the underlying Common Stock; and the third tranche will be funded within 10
days of such resale registration statement being declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Taylor House Enterprises, Ltd. ("THE"), the
Company's parent, participated as an investor in the Funding, purchasing $60,000
of Series B Preferred Stock in the first tranche and committing to purchase
$20,000 of Series B Preferred Stock in each of the next two tranches.
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, in preference to
the holders of Common Stock or any other securities which are junior to the
Series B Preferred Stock, cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 12% and
shall be paid semi-annually in arrears on the first business day of January and
July in each year (each, a "Dividend Date"), commencing on July 1, 1999.
Dividends will be payable to holders of record as they appear on the stock books
of the Company on the record date, which will be the December 15 or June 15, as
the case may be, before the related Dividend Date.
The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company's Common
Stock at $4.00 per share until January 29, 2000 and, after such date, at the
lower of $4.00 per share or the lowest bid price of the Common Stock during the
30 trading days preceding the date of conversion. However, each of the investors
has agreed that in no event shall it be permitted to convert any shares of
Series B Preferred Stock in excess of the number of such shares upon the
conversion of which, the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock owned
by such investor plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, would be equal to or
exceed 9.999 percent of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and
outstanding, including the shares that would be issuable upon conversion of the
Series B Preferred Stock held by such investor. The Purchase Agreement prohibits
the investors and their affiliates from engaging in shorting transactions in the
Common Stock at any time the Common Stock is trading below $8.00 per share.
The Company shall have the right to redeem the outstanding Series B Preferred
Stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, from and after
the first day on which the price of the Company's Common Stock exceeds $8.00 by
paying to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock 100% of its stated value,
together with all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon through the date of
redemption.
Until such time as all of the Series B Preferred Stock has been converted into
Common Stock, or has been redeemed, the Company shall not, without the written
consent of 75% of the holders of interest of the then outstanding shares of
Series B Preferred Stock, incur any indebtedness except for: (i) indebtedness
existing as of the closing of the first tranche, (ii) indebtedness (including
guarantees thereof) secured by real property (including leasehold interests)
incurred by the Company in connection with the development of, or purchase of,
such real property, provided that such indebtedness does not exceed 80% of the
fair market value of the property interest securing such indebtedness at the
time such indebtedness is put in place or (iii) any guarantees of lines of
credit used specifically to finance the working capital of affiliates which
develop senior housing or assisted living facilities; provided, however, that
prior to such time as all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are
converted into shares of Common Stock, the aggregate amount of the guarantees
referenced in sub-clause (iii) outstanding at any one time shall not exceed
$3,000,000. Furthermore, until such time as all the Series B Preferred Stock has
been converted into Common Stock, or have been redeemed, the Company must
maintain a tangible net worth (determined in accordance with United States
generally accepted accounting principals applied on a consistent basis) of at
least $4,000,000.
Each purchaser of the Series B Preferred Stock has the right to cause the
Company to redeem a portion of such purchaser's shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, at any time and from time to time, after May 3, 2002 at 100% of the
stated value of such shares, together with all accrued and unpaid dividends
thereon through the date of redemption plus a Put Premium (as defined below).
The maximum number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, expressed as a
percentage of the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued,
that may be so redeemed during certain defined periods is set forth in the table
below. The "Put Premium" shall be an additional payment by the Company to the
holder of the Series B Preferred Stock being redeemed in an amount such that
when added to the total dividends paid to such holder through the date of
redemption will yield an annual percentage rate of return ("Total Return") to
such holder set forth below opposite the period in which such redemption occurs.
The additional amount represented by the Put Premium may, at the option of the
holder of the Series B Preferred Stock, be paid in cash or in shares of
registered Common Stock.
Redemption Maximum Percentage
Date of Shares Redeemed Total Return
May 3, 2002 -
May 4, 2003 33% 18%
May 3, 2003 -
May 4, 2004 66% 19%
May 3, 2004 and thereafter 100% 20%
If by October 30, 1999, the closing bid price for the Common Stock, on at least
five trading days, is not at least $14.00 per share, then on November 4, 1999,
THE shall transfer, out of its holdings of the Company's Common Stock, shares of
unregistered Common Stock to the Company in the following amounts, and, on
November 9, 1999, the Company shall deliver such shares of unregistered Common
Stock to the purchasers of the Series B Preferred Stock, other than THE. The
aggregate amounts of the Company's Common Stock that THE would dispose of from
its holdings pursuant to this arrangement would range from 245,000 shares to
362,500 shares. If this provision becomes effective, the Company will not be
issuing any new shares of its Common Stock.
The offers and sales to the purchasers of the Series B Preferred Stock were made
pursuant to a claim of exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company did not use any general
advertisement or solicitation in connection with the offer or sale of the Series
B Preferred Stock to the investors. Each of the investors represented and
warranted, among other things, that he or it was purchasing the Series B
Preferred Stock for investment purposes and not with a view to distribution and
that he or it was an "accredited investor" (as defined in Regulation D
promulgated by the SEC). Appropriate legends were affixed to the certificates.
