Acquisitor was formed in 2002 and endeavors to achieve a high rate of capital growth for its shareholders by acquiring significant holdings in companies which the members of its Board of Directors consider to be fundamentally sound but which are valued at a discount to the Directors' estimate of their private market value. Acquisitor is managed by its Board of Directors. 2. J O Hambro Capital Management Group Limited ("J O Hambro Group") is a corporation organized under the laws of England with its principal office and business at Ryder Court, 14 Ryder Street, London SW1Y 6QB England. J O Hambro Group functions as the ultimate holding company for J O Hambro Capital Management Limited. 3.

American Opportunity Trust is a corporation organized under the laws of England with its principal office and business at Ryder Court, 14 Ryder Street, London SW1Y 6QB England.

Control Relationships: J O Hambro Capital Management is a wholly-owned subsidiary of J O Hambro Group. Christopher Harwood Bernard Mills serves as a director of J O Hambro Group, J O Hambro Capital Management and Acquisitor, and as executive director of American Opportunity Trust. III. Executive Officers and Directors: In accordance with the provisions of General Instruction C to Schedule 13D, information concerning the executive officers and directors of the Filing Parties is included in Schedule A hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. (d) Criminal Proceedings During the last five years, neither the Filing Parties (or a controlling entity thereof) nor any executive officer or director of any of the Filing Parties (or a controlling entity thereof) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). (e) Civil Securities Law Proceedings During the last five years, neither the Filing Parties (or a controlling entity thereof) nor any executive officer or director of any of the Filing Parties (or a controlling entity thereof) has 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. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. Page 8 of 22 The aggregate purchase price of the 157,400 shares of Common Stock beneficially held by Acquisitor is $485,468 (exclusive of brokerage fees and commissions). All of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Acquisitor were paid for using its working capital funds. The aggregate purchase price of the 415,000 shares of Common Stock beneficially held by American Opportunity Trust is $1,335,767 (exclusive of brokerage fees and commissions). All of the shares of Common Stock beneficially held by American Opportunity Trust were paid for using its working capital funds. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. The Filing Parties presently have no plans or proposals which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein. Following a review of a shareholder derivative action filed against the officers of the Company on December 2, 2002, the Filing Parties believe that the current corporate governance of the Company relating to its officers falls well short of acceptable practice. Consequently, the Filing Parties now intend to consider means by which some or all of the directors may be removed from the Board. In addition, the Filing Parties believe it is in the interest of all shareholders if either the current Board or a new Board immediately appoint an independent firm of investment bankers to find ways to maximize shareholder value.

(a)-(b) The aggregate number and percentage of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned (i) by each of the Filing Parties, and (ii) to the knowledge of the Filing Parties, by each other person who may be deemed to be a member of the group, is as follows: Page 9 of 22
