("HCC") and as a result may each be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
3,918,100 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by HCC. However, pursuant
to Rule 16a-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended

          PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
                    TO INCREASE THE AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK

         The Company's Certificate of Incorporation currently provides for
20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.000025. The Board of Directors
has adopted a resolution approving an amendment to the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock from 20,000,000
to 50,000,000 shares. The form of such amendment is set forth on Exhibit A
hereto.

   
         At August 4, 1995, 15,683,265 shares of Common Stock were issued and
outstanding or were reserved for issuance under the Company's existing
compensation plans, leaving a balance of 4,316,735 shares of Common Stock
available for other purposes.
    

         The Company has not made any decision respecting the issuance of
additional shares of Common Stock. However, management believes that it is in
the best interests of the Company to increase the number of authorized shares of
Common Stock at this time, because, in its opinion, it is important that
management have available to it the means and flexibility to take advantage of
any opportunities that may occur without incurring the expense or delay involved
with holding a special meeting of stockholders to increase the authorized number
of shares. Some or all of such additional shares would be available for issuance
in the event that the Company acquired a business for consideration which was
payable in whole or in part in shares of Common Stock. Further authorization for
the issuance of such Common Stock by a vote of stockholders would not be
solicited prior to such issuance unless otherwise required by law. In the event
shares of such Common Stock were issued (other than pursuant to a stock split or
stock dividend), the percentage ownership of the Company of each stockholder
would be proportionately reduced. No other rights of stockholders would be
affected. Stockholders have no pre-emptive rights to subscribe for or purchase
any additional shares issued by the Company.

         THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THIS PROPOSAL.
         PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
               TO AUTHORIZE A CLASS OF BLANK CHECK PREFERRED STOCK

                                       4
<PAGE>   6

         The Board of Directors has adopted a resolution approving an amendment
to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to authorize a class of preferred
stock commonly known as "blank check" preferred stock. The form of such
amendment is set forth on Exhibit A hereto.

   
         The amended Certificate of Incorporation will authorize 10,000,000
shares of preferred stock, par value $.00001 per share (the "Preferred Stock").
The amended Certificate of Incorporation will provide that Preferred Stock may
be issued in one or more series as may be determined from time to time by the
Board of Directors. All shares of any one series of Preferred Stock will be
identical except as to the date of issue and dates from which dividends on
shares of the series issued on different dates will cumulate, if cumulative.
The amended Certificate of Incorporation will grant the Board of Directors the
power to authorize the issuance of one or more series of Preferred Stock, and
to fix by resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of each such series
the voting powers (but no greater than one vote per share), designations,
preferences, and relative, participating, optional, redemption, conversion,
exchange or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions
of such series, and the number of shares in each series, to the full extent now
or hereafter permitted by law.
    
         
         While it is not contemplated that any shares of Preferred Stock will be
issued by the Company in the foreseeable future, the Company believes that this
class of securities will provide greater flexibility for financing of the 
Company's activities in the future. Since no Preferred Stock has been issued,
and the issuance of the same is not currently contemplated, it is not possible
to know whether such Preferred Stock, if ever issued, would have preference
over the holders of Common Stock in the distribution of any assets in the event
of a liquidation.

         The existence of authorized and unissued Preferred Stock may enable the
Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to
obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest
or otherwise. For example, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations,
the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal is not in the
Company's best interests, the Board of Directors could cause shares of Preferred
Stock to be issued without stockholder approval in one or more private offerings
or other transactions that might dilute the voting or other rights of the
proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group or create a
substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to
support the position of the incumbent Board of Directors. In this regard, the
amended Certificate of Incorporation will grant the Board of Directors broad
power to establish the designations, powers, preferences and rights of each
series of Preferred Stock.

         THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THIS PROPOSAL.
                                      
   
                 PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE
                OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE SPLIT OF
                          THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK
    

   
         The Board of Directors has adopted a resolution approving a proposal
to amend the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a one for eight
reverse split of the Common Stock (the "Reverse Split"). Such amendment is set
forth on Exhibit A hereto.
    

   
    


                                       5
<PAGE>   7

   
REASONS FOR THE REVERSE SPLIT
    

   
         The purpose of effecting the Reverse Split is to increase the
marketability of, and investor interest in, the Common Stock. The Board of
Directors believes that a decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding resulting from the Reverse Split may increase the market price of
the Common Stock and anticipates that an increased market price will encourage
investor interest in the Common Stock. Although the Company does not believe
that it has experienced significant problems in the marketability of its Common
Stock, the Board of Directors believes that the current market price of the
Common Stock (the closing price of the Common Stock on the American Stock
Exchange as of August 14, 1995 was $1.06 per share) may limit the marketability
of the Common Stock due to the reluctance of many brokerage firms and
institutional investors to recommend lower-priced stocks to their clients or to
hold them in their own portfolios. The Company believes that such reluctance is
due in part to certain common policies and practices in the securities industry
that may discourage individual broker-dealers within certain brokerage firms
from dealing in lower-priced stocks by making trading lower-priced stocks
time-consuming and therefore less economically attractive. In addition, the
policies of many brokerage firms generally do not allow investors to margin
stock with a market value of less than $5.00 per share. The Board of Directors
anticipates that the Reverse Split will increase the likelihood of the Common
Stock being marginable. There can, however, be no assurances that the foregoing
effects will occur or be maintained for any period of time.
    
         
   
EFFECT OF THE REVERSE SPLIT
    

   
         The Reverse Split will be effected by an amendment to the Certificate
of Incorporation in the form set forth on Exhibit A hereto. Such amendment,
assuming approval by the stockholders at the Special Meeting, will be filed
with the Secretary of State of Delaware as soon as practicable after the date
of the Special Meeting. Without any further action on the part of the Company
or the stockholders, the Reverse Split will become effective on the date (the
"Effective Date") of such filing.
    

   
    

   
         The effects of the proposed Reverse Split on the holders of Common
Stock are as follows: (i) holders of record of fewer than eight shares of
Common Stock on the Effective Date will have their shares automatically
converted in the Reverse Split into the right to receive one full share in lieu
of any fractional share, and (ii) holders of record of eight or more shares of
Common Stock on the Effective Date will have their shares automatically
converted in the Reverse Split into the number of whole shares equal to the
number of their shares divided by eight and the right to receive one full share
in lieu of any fractional share.

<PAGE>   8
   
    

   
         As of August 4, 1995, the number of issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock was 14,330,755. Based upon the Company's best estimates, the
number of issued and  outstanding shares of Common Stock that will result from
the proposed Reverse Split is approximately 1,791,344. Assuming approval of the
proposal to approve an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
to increase the authorized Common Stock to 50,000,000 shares, the Company will
have 48,208,656 shares of authorized and unissued Common Stock.   
    

   
    

         Proportionate voting rights and other rights of stockholders will not
be altered by the Reverse Split, with the exception of stockholders who receive
a full share of Common Stock in lieu of a fractional share.

   
         The Board of Directors desires to effect the Reverse Split without
changing the capital accounts of the Company. The proportionate adjustment to
the par value of the Common Stock will prevent any such changes resulting from
the Reverse Split.   
    

EXCHANGE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES

   
         As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Company will send
letters of transmittal to all stockholders of record on the Effective Date for
use in transmitting stock certificates to Securities Transfer Corporation, the
Company's transfer agent. Upon proper completion and execution of the letter of
transmittal and return thereof to Securities Transfer Corporation, together with
old certificates, each stockholder of record will receive new certificates
representing the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which their shares
of Common Stock have been converted as a result of the Reverse Split.
    

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

<PAGE>   9

   
         The Company believes that the proposed Reverse Split will not result
in taxable income, gain, or loss to be recognized by the Company or its
stockholders under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")
as a result of the exchange of shares. However, if a stockholder receives a
whole share in lieu of a fractional share, the stockholder may realize a
taxable gain based on the value of the additional fraction of a share received.
    

         THE SUMMARY OF FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES SET FORTH ABOVE IS FOR
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE TO STOCKHOLDERS WHO ARE
SUBJECT TO SPECIAL TREATMENT UNDER THE CODE. ALL STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT
THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THIS TRANSACTION
TO THEM, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY OF STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS.

GENERAL

   
    

   
         This proposal may be abandoned by the Board  or Directors at any time
before or after the Special Meeting and prior to the Effective Date if for any
reason the Board of Directors deems it advisable to do so. 
    


         THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THIS PROPOSAL.

                 OTHER MATTERS THAT MAY COME BEFORE THE MEETING

         Management of the Company knows of no matters other than those stated
above which are to be brought before the meeting. However, if any such other
matters should be presented for consideration and voting, it is the intention of
the persons named in the proxy to vote thereon in accordance with their
judgment.

By Order of the Board of Directors,


Kevin B. Halter, Jr.
Secretary

                                    EXHIBIT A

PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE 
AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK

         The first part of the first sentence of Article V of the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation will be amended to read as follows:

         "The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall have
         the authority to issue is 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, with par
         value of $.000025, all of the same class...."

   
         It should be noted that the par value of the Common Stock will be
proportionately adjusted as a result of the Reverse Split set forth below.   
    

PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO AUTHORIZE A 
CLASS OF BLANK CHECK PREFERRED STOCK

         The second part of the first sentence of Article V of the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation will be added as follows:

   
         "... and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, with par value of
$.00001.
    

         The second paragraph of Article V of the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation will be added as follows:

         "Preferred Stock may be issued in one or more series as may be
         determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. All shares of
         any one series of Preferred Stock will be identical except as to the
         date of issue and the dates from which dividends on shares of the
         series issued on different dates will cumulate, if cumulative.
         Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors to
         authorize the issuance of one or more series of Preferred Stock, and to
         fix by resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of each such
         series the voting powers (but no greater than one vote per share),
         designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional,
         redemption, conversion, exchange or other special rights,
         qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such series, and the
         number of shares in each series, to the full extent now or hereafter
         permitted by law."

   
PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO
EFFECT A REVERSE SPLIT OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK
    

         The following two sentences will be added to the first paragraph of
Article V of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation:

   
    

   
         "The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall have
         the authority to issue is 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, with par
         value of $.0002, all of the same class and 10,000,000 shares of
         Preferred Stock, with par value of $.00001. Each one share of the
         Corporation's Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to
         the effective date of this amendment shall be and hereby is
         automatically changed without further action into 1/8 of a fully paid
         and nonassessable share of the Corporation's Common Stock, provided
         that no fractional shares shall be issued pursuant to such change. The
         Corporation shall issue to each stockholder who would otherwise be
         entitled to a fractional share as a result of such change one full
         share of the Corporation's Common Stock."

approval of the other two proposals contained in the Proxy Statement.
