             of an aggregate of 6,639,603 shares of Common Stock, which is

             reporting such securities as if they were members of a group,
             the filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an
             admission by any reporting person that it is a beneficial
             owner of any securities other than those directly held by
             such reporting person.

                       Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" in
             Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, it is
             also possible that the individual general partners,
             directors, executive officers, members, and/or managers of
             the foregoing entities might be deemed the "beneficial
             owners" of some or all of the securities to which this
             Schedule relates in that they might be deemed to share the
             power to direct the voting or disposition of such securities. 
             Neither the filing of this Schedule nor any of its contents
             shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of such
             individuals is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any
             of the securities to which this Schedule relates, and such
             beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.<PAGE>
