Name of Person Filing:

       (I) Pichin Corp. Master Trust for TWA Retirement Plans
       (II) ACF Industries, Incorporated Master Trust
       (III) New Generation Advisers, Inc.

Shares of Salant owned by Pichin Corp. Master Trust for TWA Retirement Plans and
ACF  Industries,  Incorporated  Master Trust are  indirectly  controlled  by New
Generation  Advisers,  Inc.,  a  Massachusetts  Corporation  and SEC  registered
investment  adviser, by virtue of the fact that New Generation has the authority
to vote and dispose of the Salant  shares,  but the parties are of the view that
the parties are not acting as a "group" for purposes of Section  13(d) under the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934 (the "1934  Act") and that the parties are not
otherwise  required to attribute  to each other the  "beneficial  ownership"  of
securities  "beneficially  owned" under Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act. Therefore
the parties are of the view that shares held by them need not be aggregated  for
purposes of Section 13(d). However, Pichin Corp. Master Trust for TWA Retirement
Plans and ACF Industries,  Incorporated Master Trust are making this filing on a
voluntary basis as if all of the shares are beneficially owned by the parties on
a joint  basis.  As a result of their  respective  authority  to  terminate  New
Generation Advisers, Inc. as investment manager with respect to the Pichin Corp.
Master Trust and the ACF Industries, Incorporated Master Trust, Pichin Corp. and
ACF Industries,  Incorporated,  respectively, may also be viewed as beneficially
owning the  securities  which are held by the Pichin Corp.  Master Trust and the
ACF Industries, Incorporated Master Trust.
