2 In Amendments Nos. 7 and 8 to the Schedule 13D, the Shares held by FCIP
II were inadvertently included in Rows 8, 10, 11 and 13 of the cover page for
FCMLLC rather than in Rows 8, 10, 11 and 13 of the cover page for FPLLC. On
December 2 and 3, 1997, the dates when such amendments were filed, FCMLLC and
FPLLC each could be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 24,000 Shares and
619,146 Shares, respectively. The amount of Shares reported for each of the
