To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the entities or
persons identified in this Item 2 has, during the past five years, been
convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors), nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such
laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
----------------------------------------------------------
The source of funds for the purchases of securities was the working capital of
BLUM L.P.'s limited partnerships and investment advisory clients and the
partnership for which RCBA GP serves as the sole general partner.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
-------------------------------
The purpose of the acquisition of the Common Stock is for investment, and the
acquisitions of the Common Stock were made in the ordinary course of business
and were not made for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer.
Although no Reporting Person has any specific plan or proposal to acquire or
dispose of the Common Stock, consistent with its investment purpose, each
reporting Person at any time and from time to time may acquire additional
Common Stock or dispose of any or all of its Common Stock depending upon an
ongoing evaluation of the investment in the Common Stock, prevailing market
conditions, other investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the
Reporting Persons and/or other investment considerations.
Also, consistent with the investment purpose, the Reporting Persons may engage
in communications with one or more shareholders of the Issuer, one or more
officers of the Issuer and/or one or more members of the board of directors of
the Issuer and/or one or more representatives of the Issuer regarding the
Issuer, including but not limited to its operations. The Reporting Persons
may discuss ideas that, if effected may result in any of the following: the
acquisition by persons of additional Common Stock of the Issuer, an
extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer, and/or changes in
the board of directors or management of the Issuer.
Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal, none of
the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals which relate to, or could
result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j),
inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting
Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their
position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with
respect thereto.
CUSIP NO. 303250104 SCHEDULE 13D Page 9 of 12
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
---------------------------------------------
(a),(b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-Q, there were 14,341,654
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of May 8, 2000. Based on
such information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item
5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report direct holdings as follows: (i) BLUM
L.P. and RCBA Inc. report holdings of 723,800 of the Common Stock on behalf of
the limited partnerships for which BLUM L.P. serves as the general partner and
BLUM L.P.'s investment advisory clients, which represents 5.0% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (ii) RCBA GP reports holdings of
177,200 shares of the Common Stock on behalf of the limited partnership for
which it serves as the general partner, which represents 1.2% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock; and (iii) Mr. Blum reports the
aggregate of these shares for a total of 901,000 shares of the Common Stock,
which represents 6.3% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock.
In addition, because BLUM L.P. has voting and investment power with respect to
58,900 shares that are legally owned by The Common Fund for the account of its
Equity Fund ("The Common Fund"), those shares are reported as beneficially
owned by BLUM L.P. The Common Fund is principally engaged in the business of
managing investments for educational institutions. The principal
administrative office of The Common Fund is located at 15 Old Danbury Road,
Wilton, Connecticut 06897-0812. The Common Fund disclaims membership in a
group with any of the Reporting Persons, and disclaims beneficial ownership of
any shares held by the Reporting Persons.
Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by
BLUM L.P. and RCBA GP. The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be
members in a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to
have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 959,900 shares of the Common
Stock, which is 6.7% of the outstanding Common Stock. As the sole general
partner of BLUM L.P., RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the
securities over which BLUM L.P. has voting and investment power. As Chairman,
director and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be
deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA
Inc. Additionally, Mr. Blum may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
securities over which RCBA GP has voting and investment power. Although Mr.
Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the filing of this
Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any of the other
shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc., or managing
members and members of RCBA GP, is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of
any of the securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. or RCBA GP,
except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
(c) During the last 60 days, the Reporting Persons purchased the following
shares of Common Stock in the open market:

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
None of the Reporting Persons or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting
Persons, the other persons named in Item 2, is a party to any contract,
arrangement, understanding or relationship with respect to any securities of
the Issuer, including but not limited to the transfer or voting of any
securities of the Issuer, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option
arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or
loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, except (i) as previously
disclosed, or (ii) as noted above, BLUM L.P. has voting and investment power
of the shares held by it for the benefit of The Common Fund.
