            Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

            Although there is no formal agreement between the Trust and Mr.
            Friedman with respect to the securities of Excal, there is an
            understanding between Mr. Friedman and the Trust that Mr. Friedman
            will vote his shares of Common Stock in the same manner that the
            Trust votes its shares of Common Stock and will obtain direction
            from the Trust's Board of Trustees concerning the disposition of the
            shares of Common Stock which he holds. Mr. Friedman is authorized by
            the Trust's Board of Trustees to vote the Trust's shares of Common
            Stock as to routine matters; however, he needs to obtain the
            direction of the Board of Trustees as to how to vote the Trust's
            shares of Excal as to all extraordinary matters to be voted on
            concerning Excal.
