      Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

                  The Reporting Persons acquired the Subject Securities in order
      to provide continuing support to management and the Issuer in both the
      search for and acquisition of a new business. The Reporting Persons
      presently intend to vote their Common Stock in support of the reinvestment
      of the proceeds of certain divestitures (the "Divestiture Proceeds") in a
      new business and against the liquidation of the Issuer.

                  (a) Depending on market conditions and the success of
      management in identifying and consummating an acquisition of a new
      business, the Reporting Persons may acquire more or dispose of their
      shares of Common Stock.

                  (b)-(c) The Reporting Persons presently intend to vote their
      Common Stock in support of the reinvestment of the Divestiture Proceeds in
      a new business and against the liquidation of the Issuer. Under a plan of
      restructuring approved by the Issuer's stockholders on or about September
      21, 1999 (the "Plan"), the Issuer's board of directors (the "Board") is
      authorized, among other things, to reinvest the Divestiture Proceeds
      through the acquisition of a new business. The Divestiture Proceeds are a
      material amount of the Issuer's assets. Under the Plan, in the event the
      Issuer is unable, or chooses not, to reinvest the Divestiture Proceeds in
      a new business, the Board is required to liquidate the Issuer through a
      distribution to stockholders.

                (d)   Mr. Comfort was elected to the Board on January 5, 2000.
      As a result of recent resignations from the Board, he is one of five
      members.

                  (e)-(j)     Not Applicable.

                  After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and
      belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is
      true, complete and correct.
