Explanation of Responses:
(1) Pursuant to a Voting Trust Agreement among the several holders of all
of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock of the
Company, the Voting Trust is the direct beneficial owner of all of the
issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. On April 7,
1997, 322,229 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr.
Anselmo that were held by such Trust were voluntarily converted at no
cost into 322,229 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
(2) Each share of Class A Common Stock is convertible at no cost into one
share of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share.
(3) The 355,802 shares of Class A Common Stock for which Mr. Anselmo claims
beneficial ownership are held for the benefit of Mr. Anselmo by the
Voting Trust, of which Mr. Anselmo is a joint Voting Trustee. The
Voting Trust holds all of the 21,231,415 issued and outstanding shares
of Class A Common Stock of the Company, for which, other than the
355,802 shares held for the direct benefit of Mr. Anselmo, Mr. Anselmo
disclaims beneficial ownership. On April 7, 1997, 322,229 shares of
Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Anselmo were voluntarily
converted into 322,229 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
