Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.
          Each of the Reporting Persons purchased the shares of
Common Stock owned by such Reporting Person for the purpose of
making an investment in the Issuer and not with the present
intention of acquiring control of the Company's business. 
Certain of the Reporting Persons have had telephone conversations
with the Issuer, but they do not believe that they received any
material information during these conversations which had not
been publicly disseminated by the Issuer.
          Each of the Reporting Persons intends to review his
respective investment in the Issuer and may, depending in part
upon the Issuer's course of action, seek to increase, decrease,
or dispose of his investment in the Issuer.
          Other than as described herein, none of the Reporting
Persons or, to the best knowledge of Flex Holding Corp., any of
its directors or executive officers, has any present plans or
proposals which relate to or would result in (a) the acquisition
by any person of additional securities of the Issuer or the
disposition of securities of the Issuer, (b) an extraordinary
corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, or
liquidation involving the Issuer, (c) a sale or transfer of a
material amount of the assets of the Issuer, (d) any change in
the present board of directors or management of the Issuer,
including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Issuer's board
of directors, (e) any material change in the present
capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (f) any other
material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure,
(g) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws, or instruments
corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (h) causing a
class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national
securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in
an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national
securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the
Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant
to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act, or (j) any action similar to any
of those enumerated above.  Item 4 disclosure provisions
regarding any plans or proposals to make any changes in a
company's investment policy for which a vote is required by
Section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 are
inapplicable.
          Notwithstanding anything contained herein, each of the
Reporting Persons reserves the right, depending on other relevant
factors, to purchase additional shares of Common Stock or to
dispose of all or a portion of his holdings of Common Stock, or
