On July 19, 1999, the registrant elected to redeem all of its 11.75% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2003, as permitted by Section 5 of such Notes. The
Redemption Date is September 3, 1999. The Redemption Price is $1,094.00 for each
$1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equal to 103.917% of such principal
amount plus accrued interest of $54.83 from March 15, 1999, to September 3,

Unless the registrant defaults in making the redemption payment, interest
on the redeemed Notes ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and the
only remaining right of the note holders is to receive payment of the Redemption
Price on the Redemption Date upon surrender of the Notes redeemed to State
