owned by the Partnership that constitute approximately 9.10 percent of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock.

         Executive Officers and Director of the General Partner.  Except as
otherwise described herein, none of the executive officers or directors of the
General Partner own any of the Issuer's Common Stock.

         Certain Relationships.  The Partnership, the General Partner, and the
Sole Shareholder have a limited relationship with the other Investors to the
extent of the above-described provisions of the Voting Agreement.  Such
relationships may constitute a group for the purpose of Rule 13d-5.  Except as
