(1)The aggregate of 182,900 shares of the Common Stock owned by the Reporting
 Persons constitutes a portion of an aggregate of 575,049 shares of Common Stock
 which were purchased on March 9 and 10, 1995 in participation with the
 acquisition by Messrs. Stephen C. Swid ("SCS") and Stephen D. Weinroth ("SDW")
 of beneficial ownership of such 575,049 shares of Common Stock in two block
 trades over the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").   On March 21, 22, and 25 and
 April 2, 1996, the Reporting Persons sold an aggregate of 53,100 shares of
 Common Stock in participation with the sale by SCS and SDW of an aggregate of
 271,000 shares of Common Stock in four block trades over the NYSE.  The Common
 Stock so acquired by SCS and SDW, together with the Common Stock beneficially
 owned by them and acquired prior to March 9, 1995, represented approximately
 6.4% of the outstanding Common Stock as reported in a statement on Schedule 13D
 filed by SCS and SDW.  Solely by virtue of the participation by the Reporting
 Persons in the purchase of Common Stock with SCS and SDW in the two block
 purchases described above, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be part of
 a "group" together with SCS and SDW within the meaning of Rule 13d-5.However, 
 no agreement exists between either of the Reporting Persons and either of SCS
 and SDW with respect to any further acquisitions of the Common Stock or the
 holding, voting or disposing of the Common Stock.  Each Reporting Person
 disclaims (i) beneficial ownership of the Common Stock beneficially owned  by
 SCS or SDW and (ii) being part of a "group" together with SCS and SDW within
 the meaning of Rule 13d-5.  The Reporting Persons have been informed by SCS and
 SDW that SCS and SDW have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission an
 amendment to their statement on Schedule 13D with respect to their beneficial
 ownership of the Common Stock and the transactions described in this Note (1). 
 Such amendment to SCS and SDW's Schedule 13D states that SCS and SDW have
 ceased to beneficially own 5% of the Common Stock.
