Table I: Item 4 (additional disclosure)
James W. Giddens (the "Trustee") was appointed trustee for the liquidation

United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, dated July
11, 1996 (the "Court Order") under section 78eee(6)(3) of the Securities
Investor Protection Act. By operation of law, the Trustee is in possession and
effective control of the assets of ARB. Consequently, the Trustee believes that
for the purposes of Rule 13d-3(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Trustee may be the beneficial owner of a total of 311,000 shares of (the
"Shares") of Common Stock, no par value, of The Jockey Club, Inc. As of the date
of the Court Order, 236,000 of the Shares were directly owned by A.R. Baron &
Co., Inc. ("ARB") and 75,000 of the Shares (the "Pledged Shares") were pledged
to ARB by Eric Broadley (the "Note Obligor") pursuant to a Secured Demand Note
Collateral Agreement for Equity Capital dated September 7, 1995 (the "Security
Agreement") by the Note Obligor in favor of ARB as security for the Note
Obligor's obligations pursuant to a Secured Demand Note dated September 4, 1995
by the Note Obligor in favor of ARB. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the
Pledged Shares are held of record by Bear Stearns as nominee for ARB and ARB has
the right under certain conditions to liquidate the Pledged Shares.
