8,616,936 shares of Class A Common outstanding and 36,000,000 shares of Class B

holders of common stock shall be entitled to vote, each holder of Class A Common
shall be entitled to vote one (1) vote per share and each holder of Class B
Common shall be entitled to vote three (3) votes per share; provided, however,
that in certain circumstances, as fully set forth in a Stockholders Agreement
dated as of October 31, 1999 between the Issuer and Network Associates, Inc.,
and as amended from time to time, each holder of Class B Common shall be
entitled to one (1) vote per share. Reporting Persons understand that pursuant
to a 13G filed by Networks Associates Inc. on February 10, 2000 that all Class B
Common are held by Networks Associates Inc. Each share of Class B Common shall
automatically convert into Class A Common immediately upon any sale, conveyance,
assignment or other transfer of such share.

**       The filing of this Schedule 13G shall not be construed as an admission
         that the reporting person or any of its affiliates is, for the purposes
         of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
         beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13G. In
         addition, the filing of this Schedule 13G shall not be construed as an
         admission that the reporting person or any of its affiliates is the
         beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13G for any
         other purposes than Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
         1934.

***      Assuming that the Class B Common has not been converted to Class A
         Common, the number of votes represented by the Issuer Common Stock on
         all matters for which the Class B Common is entitled to 3 votes per
         share would be 116,616,936 which the Reporting Persons 937,773 Class A
         Common represents 0.8% of the outstanding votes. Assuming all Class B
         Common were converted into Class A Common or assuming the Class B
         Common were entitled to 1 vote per share on a particular matter, the
         aggregate number of votes represented by the Issuer Common Stock would
         be 44,616,936 votes of which the Reporting Persons 937,773 Class A
         Common represents 2.1%.
