(the "Company"). The Reporting Persons own, in aggregate, 105,000 Shares. In addition, the Reporting Persons own, in aggregate, 70,195 Warrants (the "Warrants") issued by the Company pursuant to that certain Warrant Agreement dated June 19, 2001 between the Company and Jefferies & Company, Inc. (the "Warrant Agreement"). Each Warrant is immediately exercisable and represents the right to purchase 98 Shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. In addition, pursuant to Section 4.28 of that certain Indenture dated as of June 19, 2001 (the "Indenture") for $140,000,000 of the Company's Senior Secured Increasing Rate Notes due 2003 and Senior Secured Increasing Rate Notes due 2003, Series B (together, the "Notes"), the Reporting Persons are entitled to receive (but have not yet received) certain additional Warrants in the event the Notes are outstanding on each of March 15, 2002, June 15, 2002 and each month thereafter (together, the "Step-up Warrants"). As of the date of this filing, the Notes remain outstanding. The Reporting Persons therefore believe that, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, they were entitled to receive Step-up Warrants on March 15, 2002, June 15, 2002 and monthly thereafter through November 15, 2002. The Reporting Persons are unable to determine or confirm the number of Warrants they will receive upon the issuance of these Step-up Warrants. The Reporting Persons have therefore noted on their cover pages that they are the deemed beneficial owner of certain additional Shares through the ownership of additional Warrants but have not provided the amount of these additional Shares. Such additional Shares could materially increase the beneficial ownership of the Shares held by the Reporting Persons; provided, however, that the Reporting Persons' deemed beneficial ownership of the percentage of Shares outstanding on any given date Page 19 of 25 Pages (through their ownership of any of the Warrants discussed in this Schedule 13G) will also be affected by the number of Warrants that other Warrant holders may have exercised as of such date. The Reporting Persons are filing this Schedule 13G to report their direct ownership of the 105,00 Shares, their deemed beneficial ownership, through the 70,195 Warrants issued to them to date, of an additional 6,879,110 Shares and their deemed beneficial ownership of additional Shares (in an undetermined amount) due to their entitlement to certain Step-up Warrants. All numbers and percentages contained in this Schedule 13G represent Shares (including Shares owned directly and Shares deemed to be beneficially owned through the 70,195 Warrants owned by the Reporting Persons) and not Warrants, unless stated otherwise. All percentages are based on the 50,984,607 Shares outstanding as of November 11, 2002 (as reported by the Company) plus the additional Shares that would be issued if the Reporting Persons exercised the 70,195 Warrants issued to them to date. The percentages do not assume the exercise of Warrants held by any other persons or entities. For information regarding the Warrants and the "step-up" provisions discussed above, see the Indenture filed as Exhibit 99.10 to the Company's Form 8-K filed on July 3, 2001 and the Warrant Agreement filed as Exhibit 99.13 to the Company's Form 8-K filed on July 3, 2001.
