investment and voting power over securities  owned of record by these investment
companies.  However,  despite their delegation of investment and voting power to
TCA, these investment  companies may be deemed to be the beneficial owners under
Rule 13d-3 of the Act, of the  securities  they own of record  because they have
the right to acquire  investment  and voting power through  termination of their
investment  advisory  agreement  with TCA. Thus, TCA has reported that it shares
voting power and dispositive  power over the securities owned of record by these
investment  companies.  TCA may be deemed the beneficial owner of the securities
covered by this  statement  under Rule 13d-3 of the Act. None of the  securities
listed  below  are  owned of record by TCA,  and TCA  disclaims  any  beneficial
interest in such securities.

         (a) Amount beneficially owned: 1,122,185
