(e) Neither CERBERONICS nor CERBCO has, nor, to the knowledge of CERBERONICS and CERBCO has any of the persons identified in this Item 2, 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 its 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) Each individual named in this Item 2 is a citizen of the United States of America. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. The aggregate consideration for the acquisitions of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer by CERBERONICS and CERBCO to which this Statement relates was $77,945.15. Those acquisitions are described in more detail in Item 5. The source of such funds was working capital of CERBERONICS. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction From time to time CERBERONICS and CERBCO review the status of their investment in the Issuer with a view to determining how best to maximize the benefits of their investment. The options considered during these periodic reviews include (i) disposing of some or all of the shares, (ii) acquiring additional shares, or (iii) offering to acquire all of the shares not already beneficially owned by CERBERONICS and CERBCO for cash, securities, or a combination of both. In the period from February through July 2000, CERBERONICS and CERBCO purchased 48,400 additional shares of Common Stock because CERBERONICS and CERBCO believed the prices at which the shares were trading to be attractive. All of the purchases were made in open market transactions, executed through brokers on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ"). Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. (a) CERBERONICS directly owns, and CERBCO (as a result of CERBERONICS being its wholly-owned subsidiary) may be deemed to beneficially own, the shares of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of the Issuer, described below. As provided in the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation, shares of Common Stock and shares of Class B Common Stock are identical in their rights, entitlements and preferences except that (i) each Common Stock share carries one vote whereas each Class B Common Stock share carries ten votes; and (ii) the Common Stock shares are entitled to elect as a class 25% of the authorized number of members of the Issuer's Board of Directors and the Class B Common Stock shares are entitled to elect as a class the remaining number of members of the Board. After giving effect to the acquisitions described below in this Item 5, CERBCO and CERBERONICS beneficially own 1,414,850 shares of Common Stock and 296,141 shares of Class B Common Stock. In the aggregate, these shares represent the right to cast 4,376,260 (or 62.2%) of the 7,035,226 votes eligible to be cast by the holders of both classes of common stock. Shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible at any time into shares of Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. By reason of this conversion privilege, CERBCO and CERBERONICS are deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock into which the Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by CERBCO and CERBERONICS are convertible. Therefore, for purposes of this Statement, CERBCO and CERBERONICS are deemed to beneficially own in the aggregate 1,710,991 shares of Common Stock. George Wm. Erikson, President, General Counsel and Director of CERBERONICS, and Chairman, General Counsel and Director of CERBCO, is the beneficial owner of 16,500 shares of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer. In addition to being Directors of CERBCO, Robert W. Erikson, George Wm. Erikson, Webb C. Hayes, IV, and Paul C. Kincheloe, Jr. are Directors of the Issuer. As such, each has been granted options to purchase 75,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock pursuant to its 1994 and 1999 Directors' Stock Option Plans. (b) Each of the beneficial owners set forth in paragraph (a) has sole voting and dispositive power over their respective shares referred to in paragraph (a). (c) Since February 2, 2000, CERBERONICS and CERBCO have made the following open market purchases of the Common Stock of the Issuer:
