common stock at a weighted average price of $3.45 upon consummation of the
Contribution Agreement and the initial public offering. In addition, Mr.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
Mr. Florance exchanged his shares of RIGINC for Shares of the Company to

opportunities available to Mr. Florance, general economic conditions, stock
market conditions and further developments. Mr. Florance's ability to sell any
Shares is, however, subject to the terms of a lock-up agreement entered into

underwriters of the public offering), dated June 22, 1998. The lock-up expires
on or about February 17, 1999.

also a director of the Company. Other than as described above, Mr. Florance has

currently exercisable).
(b) Mr. Florance has the sole power to vote or direct the disposition of
503,758 Shares of Company common stock.
(c) See Item 4 above. In addition, on May 12, 1998, the Company issued one
incorporator's share to Mr. Florance for $12.50. That share was redeemable at
the Company's option for the same price, which redemption occurred on July 13,
1998. Mr. Florance also received one share of Company common stock as a gift on
or about July 1, 1998.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
On March 5, 1998, Mr. Florance entered in the Contribution Agreement (see
Item 3 above). On June, 22, 1998, Mr. Florance entered into the Lock-Up
Agreement. A copy of the Contribution Agreement and a copy of the Lock-Up are
attached hereto as, respectively, Exhibits 1 and 2 and are incorporated herein
by reference.

(c) Except as provided in Section 10.10(b), all Disputes shall be
resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA") in Washington, D.C. and, except as expressly provided in

Arbitrator shall be selected from the AAA's Commercial Panel, and shall be
qualified to practice law in at least one jurisdiction in the United States and
- 13 -
<PAGE>
have expertise in the interpretation of commercial contracts. The parties shall
have ten (10) days to object in writing to the appointment of the Arbitrator,
the sole basis for such objection being an actual conflict of interest. The AAA,
in its sole discretion, shall determine within ten (10) days the validity of any
objection to the appointment of the Arbitrator based on an actual conflict of
interest.
(ii) The Arbitrator's decision (the "Decision") shall be binding,
and the prevailing party may enforce the Decision in any court of competent
jurisdiction.
(iii) The parties shall use their best efforts to cooperate with
each other in causing the arbitration to be held in as efficient and expeditious
a manner as practicable, including but not limited to, providing such documents
and making available such of their personnel as the Arbitrator may request, so
that the Decision may be reached timely. The Arbitrator shall take into account
the parties' stated goal of expedited proceedings in determining whether to
authorize discovery and, if so, the scope of permissible discovery and other
hearing and pre-hearing procedures.
(iv) The authority of the Arbitrator shall be limited to deciding
liability for, and the proper amount of, a Claim, and the Arbitrator shall have
no authority to award punitive damages. The Arbitrator shall have such powers
and establish such procedures as are provided for in the Rules, so long as such
powers and procedures are consistent with this Section 8.8(c) and are necessary
to resolve the Dispute within the time periods specified in this Agreement. The
Arbitrator shall render a Decision within sixty (60) days after being appointed
to serve as Arbitrator, unless the parties otherwise agree in writing or the
Arbitrator makes a finding that a party has carried the burden of showing good
cause for a longer period.
8.9 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement or the application
thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, the remainder hereof, and the application of such provision to

hereto or any other person or entity.

partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such
partner or retired partner, and any partner who is an individual may transfer
