CAC, CPCU, Elyo and Lyonnaise may be deemed to form a
group. Lyonnaise owns 98% of the outstanding voting stock
of Elyo. Elyo directly owns 76.9% of the outstanding voting
stock of CAC and may be deemed to own beneficially 89.6% of
the outstanding voting stock of CAC due to its ownership of
stock in certain other entities which are themselves owners
of outstanding voting stock of CAC. CPCU is a subsidiary of
Elyo, which owns 64.5% of the outstanding voting stock of
CPCU. CAC and CPCU will most likely take actions in a
concerted manner.
CAC and CPCU (collectively, the "Companies") and Thomas R.
Casten, Richard E. Kessel, Michael Weiser and Eugene E.
Murphy (collectively., the "Management Stockholders") may be
deemed to have formed a group as a result of the
Stockholders Agreement dated as of August 10, 1994, entered
into among these parties, pursuant to which the Companies
could direct the voting of the Management Stockholders in
certain circumstances. The voting obligations of the
Management Stockholders under the Stockholders Agreement
expired on August 10, 1997. Accordingly, the Management
Stockholders' shares (1,515,745) are no longer beneficially
owned by the Companies.
