trustee of the Alexander Trust, has sole voting and dispositive power with

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to
Securities of the Issuer.

      Pursuant to (i) a Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, dated the
Stock Closing Date between the Company and each of Mona Kalimian, Mark Kalimian
and Linda Berley and (ii) a Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, dated the
Warrant Closing Date between the Company and each of the Caroline Trust,
Alexander Trust and Candlewood Trust (collectively, the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (the
"Registration Statement"), which was declared effective on July 11, 1996 by the
Commission, covering the shares of Common Stock and shares underlying the
Warrants held by the Reporting Persons ("Registrable Securities"). The Company
has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the
earlier of (i) two (2) years from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement
or (ii) the date all of the Registrable Securities have been sold. In addition,
each of the Caroline Trust, Alexander Trust and Candlewood Trust were afforded
"piggy-back" registration rights commencing two (2) years from the date of the
Registration Rights Agreement in the event any of their respective shares of
Common Stock underlying the Warrants had not been resold pursuant to the
Registration Statement. The Reporting Persons agreed, on a collective basis,
that they will not sell, pursuant to the Registration Statement, during any
period of 90 consecutive days, more than 30,000 shares of Common Stock, i.e.,
10% of the shares of Common Stock acquired in the Private Placement (the "10%
Limitation"); provided, however, that the 10% Limitation will lapse two (2)
years from the date of the Registration Rights Agreement; and provided, further,
that the 10% Limitation does not apply to the shares of Common Stock underlying
the Warrants. The 10% Limitation is cumulative, such that in the event the
Reporting Persons Mona Kalimian, Mark Kalimian and Linda Berley collectively
sell less than 30,000 shares of Common Stock during any period of 90 consecutive
days, the unutilized portion of the 10% Limitation may be carried forward to the
next period of 90 consecutive days on a cumulative and successive basis.

      In addition, pursuant to the Put Agreement dated the Stock Closing Date by
and between Mona Kalimian, Mark Kalimian and Linda Berley (in such capacities,
collectively the "Put Holders"), and Martin J. Sergi ("Sergi") and Nicholas
Menonna, Jr. ("Menonna" and with Sergi, the "Principals"), who are principal
shareholders, officers and directors of the Company, during the period
commencing on November 1, 1995 and which expired on July 11, 1996, the Put
Holders, collectively, had the right to sell (the "Put") and the Principals
unconditionally agreed to purchase, up to 60,000 shares of Common Stock (the
"Put Shares") tendered to the Principals by the Put Holders.
