(a) (b) The beneficial ownership and voting and dispositive power of

hereof is as follows:

Metropolitan Capital has purchased no shares of Common
Stock of the Issuer for its own account. However,
Metropolitan Capital may be deemed to have indirect
beneficial ownership of the 825,043 shares of Common Stock
purchased for the account of Bedford Falls.
(ii) Metropolitan International owns 1.3% of Common Stock of
the Issuer. Metropolitan Capital III, Inc. has purchased
no shares of Common Stock of the Issuer solely for its own
account. However, by reason of its position as General
Partner of Metropolitan Capital Partners III, L.P., which
has discretionary voting and dispositive power over the
assets of Metropolitan International, Metropolitan Capital
III, Inc. may be deemed to have shared voting and
dispositive power over the 90,000 shares of Common Stock
owned by Metropolitan International.
(iii) KJ Advisors, Inc. owns .59% of Common Stock of the Issuer
solely by reason of its position as General Partner of
Metropolitan Capital Partners II, L.P., which has
discretionary voting and dispositive power over assets
held in the Managed Account. Thus, by virtue of being the
General Partner of Metropolitan Capital Partners II, L.P.,
KJ Advisors, Inc. may be deemed to have shared voting and
dispositive power over the 39,215 shares of Common Stock
of the Issuer held in the Managed Account.
(iv) Jeffrey E. Schwarz may be deemed the beneficial owner of
1,155,254 shares of Common Stock which represents 17.4% of

officer and controlling stockholder of Metropolitan

Advisors, Inc., and a Managing Member of BGN. In addition,
Jeffrey Schwarz may be deemed an indirect beneficial owner
of 15,000 shares held by two separate trusts, the Schwarz

of which certain family members are beneficiaries. Mr.
Schwarz disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares. Mr.
Schwarz individually and solely owns for his own account
38,940 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
(v) Karen Finerman may be deemed the beneficial owner of
1,101,314 shares of Common Stock which represents 16.5% of

director and executive officer of Metropolitan Capital, a
director, executive officer and stockholder of
