The Reporting Entities may be deemed to be a "group" under the Federal

-5-
<PAGE> 6
e. None of the Reporting Entities nor, to the best of their
knowledge, any of the directors, executive officers or general partners
referred to in paragraph (a) above has, during the last five years, been
a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is
subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations
of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state
securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
f. Except as otherwise indicated on Schedule I hereto, each of
the individuals referred to in paragraph (a) above is a United States
citizen.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Compensation.
The total amount of funds required by Ventures to purchase the
Shares (as defined below) was $1,421,252, and was furnished from the working
capital of Ventures.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
On October 8, 9, 16 and 22 of 1996, Ventures purchased in the open
market 73,000, 23,000, 102,400 and 62,500 shares of Common Stock of the Company,
respectively, (the "Shares"), at a price per share of $5.13, $5.50, $5.63 and
$5.50, respectively, for an aggregate of 260,900 shares (collectively, the
"Purchase"). Such purchases represent three and one-third percent (3.3%) of the
Company's total outstanding Common Stock. Prior to the Purchase, the Reporting
Entities owned 3,278,864 shares of, or forty one and one-half percent (41.5%)
of, the Company's Common Stock.
The Purchase was effected because of the Reporting Entities'
belief that the Company represents an attractive investment. As a result of
the Purchase, the Reporting Entities are the Company's largest stockholders
and, hence, may be deemed to be "control persons." Following the Purchase, Ms.
Elizabeth H. Weatherman, who is affiliated with E.M. Warburg, will continue
serving on the Company's Board of Directors. Ms. Weatherman disclaims
beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act)
of the Common Stock owned by Ventures. The Reporting Entities presently expect
to limit their involvement in the management of the Company to representation
on the Board of Directors.
The Reporting Entities may from time to time acquire
additional shares of Common Stock or dispose of shares of Common Stock through
open market or privately negotiated transactions, tender offer or otherwise,
depending on existing market conditions and other considerations discussed
below. The Reporting Entities intend to review their investment in the Company
on a continuing basis and, depending upon the price and availability of shares
of Common Stock, subsequent developments affecting the Company, the Company's
business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available
to the Reporting Entities, general stock market and economic conditions, tax
considerations and other factors considered relevant, may decide at any time
not to increase, or to decrease, the size of their investment in the Company.
Except as set forth herein or in Item 6, none of the Reporting
Entities nor, to the best of their knowledge, any person listed in Schedule I
hereto, has any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the
acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the
disposition of securities of the Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a
-6-
<PAGE> 7
merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its
subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of
Directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to
change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the
board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy
of the Company; (f) any other material change in the Company's business or
corporate structure; (g) changes in the Company's charter, By-Laws or
instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the Company by any person; (h) causing a class of
securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or
to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of
the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to any of those
enumerated above.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
a. Ventures beneficially owns 3,539,764 shares of Common Stock.
By reason of their respective relationships with Ventures, each of the
Reporting Entities may be deemed under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act
to own beneficially all of the shares of Common Stock which Ventures
beneficially owns. Based on information contained in the Company's Form
10Q (File No. 0-27588), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on June 30, 1996, the shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting
Entities represent approximately 44.8% of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock.
b. The Reporting Entities together share the power to vote or to
direct the vote, and to dispose or to direct the disposition of the
Shares held by them.
c. None of the Reporting Entities nor, to the best of their
knowledge, any person listed in Schedule I hereto, has effected any
transactions in the Common Stock during the preceding 60 days.
d. Except as set forth in this Item 5, no person other than each
respective record owner referred to herein of securities is known to have
the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends
from, or the proceeds from the sale of, such securities.
e. Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer.
Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act,
the Reporting Persons have entered into an agreement with respect to the joint
filing of this statement, and any amendment or amendments hereto, which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Except as described herein, there are no contracts,
arrangements, understandings or relationships among the persons named in Item 2
or between such persons and any other person with respect to any securities of
the Company.
-7-
<PAGE> 8
By virtue of the relationships among the Reporting Entities as
described in Item 2, the Reporting Entities may be deemed to be a "group" under
the Federal securities laws. Lionel I. Pincus disclaims any beneficial
ownership of the Shares reported herein as being beneficially owned by the
Reporting Entities.
