(1) On May 19, 1988, the Issuer distributed one share of Series B Common
Stock for each outstanding share of Common Stock (which was
redesignated on May 4, 1988 as Series A Common Stock). Series B
Common Stock is convertible at any time on a share for share basis
into Series A Common Stock. Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i), the
Reporting Person is deemed to

be the beneficial owner of the Series A shares into which the Series B
shares are convertible, and such Series A shares are included in this
number.
(2) Does not include 48,670 Series A shares owned by Mrs. Herndon's
husband and 49,228 Series A shares and 49,228 Series B shares that
Mrs. Herndon holds as trustee, as to all of which shares Mrs. Herndon
disclaims beneficial ownership.
(3) Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i), this percentage has been calculated
by including in both the Reporting Person's number of shares
beneficially owned and the number of Series A shares outstanding, the
number of Series A shares into which the Series B shares beneficially
owned by the Reporting Person are convertible, but the number of
Series A shares outstanding does not include Series A shares into
which Series B shares held by others than the Reporting Person are
convertible. Were the percentage calculated by also including in the
outstanding Series A shares the number of Series A shares into which
Series B shares held by others than the Reporting Person are
convertible, the Reporting Person would be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of 3.8% of the outstanding Series A shares.
