and clearing  fees).  The portion of such funds provided by margin  borrowing is
not  readily  determinable  and varies  from time to time as a result of varying
margin account  availability  and other unrelated,  ongoing  transactions in the

                  the Issuer solely by reason of its position as General Partner

                  Metropolitan Capital Advisors,  Inc. and KJ Advisors, Inc. Mr.
                  Schwarz  may  also  be  deemed  the  beneficial  owner  of  an
                  additional  39,625  shares  of  Common  Stock by virtue of his
                  position as a director, executive officer and stockholder of a
                  corporation which, through an affiliate, may be deemed to have
                  beneficial   ownership  over  securities  held  by  a  foreign

                  of Common Stock of the Issuer, 70,000 of which may be acquired
