                    shares of Common Stock by virtue of his position as (1) an
                    individual holder of Common Stock (1,065,200 shares of
                    Common Stock or 4.6%), (2) one of the two managers and the

                    minor child's investment account (90,000 shares of Common
                    Stock or 0.4%). Such shares represent 7.6% of the issued and
                    outstanding Common Stock. Mr. Lattanzio has sole voting

                    in (2) above with Mr. Linn and LG.

                    (ii) LG had beneficial ownership of 600,600 shares of Common

                    manager to the Managed Accounts (other than Mr. Lattanzio's
                    minor child's managed account) holding such shares of Common
                    Stock. Such shares represent 2.6% of the issued and
                    outstanding Common Stock. LG shares voting power and
                    dispositive power over such shares with Mr. Lattanzio and
                    Mr. Linn.

                    dispositive power over such shares with Mr. Lattanzio and
                    LG.
