ITEM 3.           SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATIONS.

                  PIP purchased 795,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer in
open market transactions. The sole source of the funds used in making purchases
of the Common Stock was the PIP cash account. No part of the purchase price is
represented by funds or other consideration borrowed or otherwise obtained for
the purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting the Common Stock. No source
of the funds is a loan made in the ordinary course of business by a bank, as
defined in Section 3(a)(6) of the Act. The amount of funds used in making the
purchases is set forth in Item 5.

ITEM 5.           INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

                  (a)-(b) As of the date of this statement, PIP beneficially
owns and PAR Group and PAR Capital may be deemed to beneficially own 795,000
shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer, representing approximately 4.4% of the
number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer currently outstanding. The number
of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer believed to be outstanding as of March
25, 1998, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Issuer for the year ending
December 31, 1997 (which is the most recently available filing by the Issuer
with the Commission) is 17,925,381. The total amount of funds used in purchasing
the 795,000 shares of Common Stock was $10,118,937.50.

                  To the best knowledge of PIP, PAR Group and PAR Capital, none
of PIP, PAR Group or PAR Capital, nor any officer or director of PIP, PAR Group
or PAR Capital beneficially owns any other shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

                  Set forth below is the aggregate number of shares and
percentage of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned (i)
by PIP and (ii) to the knowledge of PIP, PAR Group and PAR Capital, by each
other person or entity that may be deemed to be a member of a group with PIP,
PAR Group and PAR Capital for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act
and the rules promulgated thereunder:
