ITEM 10. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

          (a) Item 10(e) of the Schedule 14D-1 is hereby amended by adding the
following:

               On or about June 7, 1999, the plaintiff in the Delaware Action
          withdrew her motion for a preliminary injunction to prevent the
          consummation of the Offer. Plaintiff has indicated an intention to
          seek damages in the Delaware Action.

          (b) Item 10(f) of the Schedule 14D-1 is hereby amended by amending and
restating in its entirety the eleventh paragraph under the heading
"Introduction" in the Offer to Purchase as follows:

               The information contained in this Offer to Purchase concerning
          the Company was supplied by the Company. The information contained in
          this Offer to Purchase concerning the Offer, the Merger, Parent and
          Purchaser was supplied by Purchaser, and the Company takes no
          responsibility for such information except to the extent such
          information relates to the Company.

          (c) Item 10(f) of the Schedule 14D-1 is hereby amended by amending and
restating in its entirety the first paragraph under the heading "The Tender
Offer--Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Shares" in the Offer to Purchase
as follows:

               Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer
          (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and
          conditions of any such extension or amendment), Purchaser will accept
          for payment, and will pay for, all Shares validly tendered prior to
          the Expiration Date and not properly withdrawn, promptly after the
          Expiration Date.

          (d) Item 10(f) of the Schedule 14D-1 is hereby amended by amending and
restating in its entirety the last paragraph under the heading "The Tender
Offer--Certain Information Concerning the Company--Certain Projections" in the
Offer to Purchase as follows:

               The Projections were prepared solely for internal use and not
          with a view to public disclosure or compliance with the published
          guidelines of the Commission or the American Institute of Certified
          Public Accountants regarding Projections and were not prepared with
          the assistance of, or reviewed by, independent accountants. Such
          Projections are included by Purchaser in this Offer to Purchase solely
          because such information was furnished to Parent and Purchaser by the
          Company. None of Parent, Purchaser, the Company, Wachovia Securities
          or any other person provides any assurances as to the accuracy of the
          projected outcomes or the completeness of the Projections, and the
          inclusion of such projected information in this Offer to Purchase
          should not be regarded as an indication that any of such persons
          consider such projected outcomes to be accurate or reliable. The
          Projections were not prepared in accordance with generally accepted
          accounting principles and were not audited or reviewed by any
          independent accounting firm, nor did any such firm perform any other
          services with respect thereto. While presented with numerical
          specificity, the Projections are based on a variety of assumptions
          relating to the business of the Company, industry performance, general
          business and economic conditions and other matters that are inherently
          subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which
          are beyond the Company's control. These assumptions involve judgments
          with respect to, among other things, future economic and competitive
          conditions, inflation rates and future business conditions. Therefore,
          such Projections are inherently imprecise and there can be no
          assurance that they will prove to be reliable. Also, actual future
          results may vary materially from those shown in the Projections. None
          of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or Wachovia Securities is under any
          obligation to or has any intention to update the Projections at any
          future time.

          (e) Item 10(f) of the Schedule 14D-1 is hereby amended by amending and
restating in its entirety the first paragraph under the heading "The Tender
Offer--Certain Conditions of the Offer" in the Offer to Purchase as follows:

               Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer, the Purchaser
          shall not be required to accept for payment or, subject to any
          applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, including Rule
          14(e)-1(c) under the Exchange Act (relating to Purchaser's obligation
          to pay for or return tendered shares after the termination or
          withdrawal of the Offer), to pay for any Shares tendered pursuant to
          the Offer, and (subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement) may
          amend or terminate the Offer or postpone the acceptance for payment,
          the purchase of, and/or payment for Shares if at any time on or after
          the date of the Merger Agreement and at or before the Expiration Date
          any of the following conditions exists:
