estate, including 4,922 shares of Common Stock of FNNI.  As co-conservators,

Common Stock of FNNI.

result in:

     (a)  The acquisition by any person of additional securities of FNNI, or the
          disposition of securities of FNNI;

     (b)  An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
          reorganization or liquidation, involving FNNI or any of its
          subsidiaries;

     (c)  A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of FNNI or any of
          its subsidiaries;

     (d)  Any change in the present board of directors or management of FNNI,
          including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
          directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;

     (e)  Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy
          of FNNI;

     (f)  Any other material change in FNNI's business or corporate structure;

     (g)  Changes in FNNI's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto
          or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the
          issuer by any person;

     (h)  The common stock of FNNI becoming eligible for termination of
          registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or
