On November 1, 2000, Liberty Financial Companies, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("LFC"), the indirect corporate parent of Keyport issued a press release stating that it has retained CS First Boston to help explore strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of LFC. LFC added that, because the strategic review is now ongoing, it cannot speculate on the outcome, and there is no assurance that any transaction will be completed. Keyport similarly cannot speculate on the outcome. Keyport's management does not anticipate any material change in Keyport's financial condition.
