DNL Partners, Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), to request that DNL cause
the distribution to M&A of shares of the capital stock of Carson, Inc. (the
"Issuer") in an amount representing the constructive interest in the Issuer held
by M&A through its interest in the Partnership. As a result of this request, on
November 16, 1998 M&A received, and as of the date of this Amendment No. 1,

and Class C Common Stock outstanding as of November 1, 1998, as set forth in the
Issuer's Form 10-Q dated as of September 30, 1998, (i) M&A may be deemed to
beneficially own approximately 9.07% of outstanding Common Stock and (ii) NIIHCC
may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 2.48% of outstanding Common
Stock.

         (b) M&A has sole power to vote or to direct the vote of, and to dispose
or to direct the disposition of, all shares beneficially owned by M&A described
in subsection (a) of this Item 5, and NIIHCC has sole power to vote or to direct
the vote of, and to dispose or to direct the disposition of, all shares
beneficially owned by NIIHCC described in subsection (a) of this Item 5.

         (c) Except as described in subsection (a) of this Item 5, no
transaction in Common Stock was effected during the past sixty days by M&A or
NIIHCC.
