(b) The address of the principal business offices of Box Hill is 161 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10013.

(f) To Box Hill's best knowledge, all of the directors and executive officers of Box Hill named in Schedule I to this Schedule 13D are citizens of the United States. ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION To facilitate the Merger (as defined in Item 4 below) and as an inducement to Box Hill entering into the Merger Agreement (as defined in Item 4 below), certain stockholders of the Issuer have entered into "Voting Agreements" with Box Hill as described in Item 4. These Voting Agreements do not contemplate a purchase by Page 3 of 13 Pages 4 Box Hill of either the Common Stock of the Issuer ("Issuer Common Stock") or the Series A Preferred Stock of the Issuer ("Issuer Preferred Stock", and together with the Issuer Common Stock, collectively referred to herein as the "Issuer Capital Stock"). ITEM 4.PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION (a)-(b) On April 30, 1999, Box Hill announced that it has signed a merger agreement with the Issuer, in connection with a tax-free, stock-for-stock transaction in what is intended to be accounted for as a pooling of interests (the "Merger"). Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 29, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement") among Box Hill, BH Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub"), and the Issuer, each outstanding share of Issuer Common Stock will be converted into 0.40 (the "Exchange Rate") of a fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock of Box Hill ("Box Hill Common Stock"). In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, outstanding options to purchase Issuer Common Stock will be assumed by the Box Hill in the Merger and will become options to purchase Box Hill Common Stock. The exercise price and number of shares underlying such options will be adjusted to give effect to the Exchange Rate. Unless converted in accordance with their terms prior to the consummation of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of the Issuer Preferred Stock will be converted into the right to receive that number of shares of Box Hill Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i)(1) $4,988,318, divided by (2) the closing sales price of Box Hill Common Stock as traded on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape on the last trading day immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, by (ii) 2,494,159. The holders of the Issuer Preferred Stock have the right to vote with the holders of the Issuer Common Stock and are entitled to that number of votes as they would have shares of Issuer Common Stock if the Issuer Preferred Stock was converted on the date of the vote. The Issuer Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, without the payment of additional consideration, at any time after January 1, 1999, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Issuer Common Stock determined by dividing two dollars ($2.00) by the greater of (A) $6.00 and (B) the then applicable Conversion Price. "Conversion Price" is the average of the closing price per share of Issuer Common Stock as traded on the National Market System of the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. under the ticker symbol "ARTE". The Issuer Common Stock is the subject of a separate Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the date hereof. The Merger was approved unanimously by the boards of directors of both Box Hill and the Issuer. If the Merger Agreement is approved by the shareholders of each of Box Hill and the Issuer and the other conditions contained in the agreement are timely satisfied or waived, the Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer being the surviving corporation. After giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Box Hill will be the sole shareholder of the Issuer. Page 4 of 13 Pages 5 The Merger is subject to customary closing conditions as well as certain regulatory approval and approval by the shareholders of both the Issuer and Box Hill. The parties anticipate the transaction to close by the third quarter of 1999. The Merger Agreement may be terminated by Box Hill or the Issuer under certain circumstances. If the Merger Agreement is terminated by Box Hill or the Issuer pursuant to Section 7.1(e) therein, the Issuer will pay Box Hill a cash fee equal to 120% of all out-of-pocket expenses and fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses payable to all investment banking firms structuring the Merger and related transactions and all reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, experts and consultants to Box Hill and Merger Sub) incurred or accrued by Box Hill and Merger Sub in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and performance of the Merger Agreement (not to exceed, in the aggregate, $2,500,000). If the Merger Agreement is terminated by Box Hill or the Issuer pursuant to Section 7.1(d) therein, Box Hill will pay the Issuer a cash fee equal to 120% of all out-of- pocket expenses and fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses payable to all investment banking firms structuring the Merger and related transactions and all reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, experts and consultants to the Issuer) incurred or accrued by the Issuer in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and performance of the Merger Agreement (not to exceed, in the aggregate, $2,500,000). If the Merger Agreement is terminated by Box Hill pursuant to Section 7.1(f)(ii) therein or by the Issuer pursuant to Section 7.1(h) therein, the Issuer shall pay Box Hill a cash fee in the amount of $2,500,000. If the Merger Agreement is terminated by the Issuer pursuant to Section 7.1(i) or by Box Hill pursuant to Section 7.1(i), Box Hill shall pay the Issuer a cash fee in the amount of $2,500,000.

Stockholder has the sole right to dispose of the Company Shares and shares the right to vote the Company Shares with Artecon pursuant to the proxy granted to Artecon in connection with the Merger. (b) Stockholder is the holder of options to purchase the number of shares of common stock of the Company set forth beneath Stockholder's signature on the signature page hereof (the "Company Options"), and Stockholder has good and valid title to the Company Options, free and clear of any liens, pledges, security interests, adverse claims, equities, options, proxies (other than that certain proxy granted to Artecon in connection with the Merger), charges, encumbrances or restrictions of any nature. The Company Shares and the Company Options are referred to herein collectively as the "Company Securities." 1 2 (c) Stockholder does not own, of record or beneficially, directly or indirectly, any securities of the Company other than the Company Securities and any other securities of the Company that Stockholder may acquire after the date hereof. (d) Stockholder has carefully read this Affiliate Agreement and, to the extent Stockholder felt necessary, has discussed with counsel the limitations imposed on Stockholder's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or reduce the Stockholder's interest in or risk related to the Company Securities. Stockholder fully understands the limitations this Affiliate Agreement places upon Stockholder's ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or reduce the Stockholder's interest in or risk related to the securities of the Company. (e) Stockholder understands that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Affiliate Agreement will be relied upon by the Company and its counsel and accountants for purposes of determining the Company's eligibility to account for the Merger as a "pooling of interests" and for purposes of determining whether Artecon and the Company should proceed with the Merger. 2. PROHIBITIONS AGAINST TRANSFER.
