("SPI"). The reporting person is the President, the sole director and the sole stockholder of SFSC. The reporting person is the President, director and the owner of a majority of the outstanding shares of the voting stock of SPI. Because of these relationships, for purposes of Regulation 13D, the reporting person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock and other securities owned by SFSC and SPI. In addition, SFSC is the holder of seven partially convertible subordinated notes (the "1997 CONVERTIBLE NOTES") in the aggregate principal amount of $15,000,000 issued by the Issuer to SFSC as of June 12, 1997. SFSC has the right to convert an aggregate of $3,000,000 of the principal of the 1997 Convertible Notes into 252,949 of Common Stock (a conversion price of $11.86 per share) on June 12, 2004 (the maturity date of such notes) or, if earlier, the date on which such notes are prepaid. The shares subject to the conversion rights under the 1997 Convertible Notes are not included in the Beneficially Owned Shares because such rights are not exercisable within 60 days of the date of this Amendment. (c) No transactions in the Common Stock were effected in the past 60 days by the reporting person, except as described in this filing. (d) Certain of the Beneficially Owned Shares are pledged, as described in Item 6, below.

SFSC has also pledged 103,500 shares of Common Stock to the law firm of Lurie, Zepeda, Schmalz & Hogan ("LZS&H") to secure the payment of legal fees incurred in connection with certain pending litigation. Because defaults have occurred under the applicable documents governing the pledges, (i) each of Sovereign Bank and PNC/BOCP has the right to vote the shares pledged to it and (ii) B of A will have the right to vote the shares pledged to it, if it gives the pledgors thereof written notice of the default and of its intention to exercise the voting rights. LZS&H does not have voting rights with respect to the shares pledged to it. ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
