- ------- -----------------------
On March 25, 1998, the Reporting Persons, as represented by Kass,
furnished a letter to management of the Company for the purpose of seeking
appropriate responses from such management with respect to the concerns of the
Reporting Persons relating to the poor performance of the Company. On April 3,
1998, management of the Company issued a letter to Kass purportedly in response
to the concerns contained in the letter of March 25, 1998. Based on that
response, Curators Partners has, as of the date hereof, requested a list of the
Company's stockholders from the Company so that the Reporting Persons, as
represented by Kass, may communicate their concerns and address appropriate
action with certain of such stockholders.
The Reporting Persons, depending upon the outcome of such
communications, may or may not acquire additional shares of Common Stock or take
other actions. Alternatively, the Reporting Persons may determine to sell or
otherwise dispose of some or all of the shares of the Common Stock owned by
them, depending upon a continued assessment of such communications or other
developments. In making any such determinations, the Reporting Persons will
consider their goals and objectives, other investment opportunities available to
them, as well as other factors.
The foregoing actions may be taken by one or more of the Reporting
Persons and, while currently there are no plans to do so, possibly in
combination with others. The Reporting Persons may also consider whether or not
other stockholders of the Company will become members of their group.
