In each  case,  the  purchaser  paid  cash in the  amount  of $3 per  share  and
delivered  a note in the amount  $17.50 per share.  Each note is a  non-recourse
note due May 15,  2002 and bears  interest at 8% per annum,  payable  quarterly.
Each note is secured by a pledge of the purchased shares to the Price Charitable
Remainder Trust under a Stock Pledge and Security  Agreement dated May 21, 1998.
Each Stock  Pledge  and  Security  Agreement  provides  that the shares  will be
pledged to the Price Charitable  Remainder Trust and held in a brokerage account
for so long as the  applicable  note  remains  outstanding;  provided  that  the
borrower may instruct the holder of the brokerage  account to sell the shares at
any time and pay to the  Price  Charitable  Remainder  Trust  the  lesser of the
proceeds of the sale or the amount  borrowed  under the note. All cash dividends
and distributions  paid on the pledged shares will be paid to the borrower,  but
all  stock  dividends  and   distributions   will  become  pledged   securities.
Accordingly,  the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued in the  Distribution
on such  shares of Common  Stock have become  subject to the  pledge.  The Price
Charitable  Remainder  Trust  does not have the right to vote or  dispose of the
pledged shares under any of the pledge  agreements  prior to a default under the
applicable note.

On September 29, 1998, The Price Family  Charitable Trust, of which Sol Price is
a trustee, loaned $11,200,000 to the San Diego Foundation to be used exclusively
for the purpose of purchasing  shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The San Diego
Foundation  purchased  800,000  shares  and has  pledged  all of such  shares as
security  for the  loan.  The loan  bears  interest  at the rate of 9% per year.
Interest is payable quarterly  beginning  November 20, 1998. The loan matures on
September 30, 1999. The Price Family Charitable Trust does not have the right to
vote or dispose of the pledged shares under any of the pledge  agreements  prior
to a default under the applicable note.

For  information  regarding  shares of Common  Stock  beneficially  owned by Sol
Price,  see the separate  Schedule 13D, as amended from time to time,  regarding
