                               ATTACHMENT A

     The securities (the "Securities") which are the subject of
this filing consist of 3,844,229 shares of common stock which may
be acquired by conversion of a Convertible Subordinated Note
Agreement dated December 31, 1985, 3,832,957 shares of common
stock which may be acquired by conversion of 348,944 shares of
convertible preferred stock and an additional 988,188 shares of
common stock which are presently owned by the Reporting Person. 
The Securities are subject to the provisions of that certain
Investment Agreement (the "Agreement") dated as of August 30,
1985 between Issuer and the undersigned Reporting Person, by
which Agreement the undersigned is prohibited from selling,
transferring or otherwise disposing of any interest in the
Securities prior to December 31, 1990 unless the Issuer consents
in writing; provided, however, the undersigned may transfer the
Securities to any Subsidiary or Affiliate, providing that said
transferee shall agree in writing to be subject to the terms of
the Agreement and the undersigned shall remain subject to the
Agreement.  The above provisions of the Agreement shall terminate
if the Agreement terminates, which termination shall occur as of
the earliest of (a) the undersigned's beneficial ownership of
less than 5% of the Issuer's then-outstanding voting securities,

     The undersigned's voting power, dispositive power, and
aggregate amount beneficially owned is further subject to
limitations set forth in the December 27, 1985 letter to the
undersigned from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
Board.

     The undersigned may only hold 5% of the Issuer's outstanding
common stock at any one time; however, the undersigned may
convert any of that common stock into the Issuer's Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock and thereby permit its acquisition of
additional common stock.
