      <footnote id="F1"> One July 10, 2001 and on August 7, 2001, the reporting person inadvertently reported the indirect beneficial ownership of 60,385 shares of the issuer's common stock as a result of the execution of a power-of-attorney on June 28, 2001. The reporting person does not now, nor did he ever, have any direct or indirect pecuniary interest in the shares subject to the power-of-attorney, and his current beneficial ownership is 83,360 shares.</footnote>

      <footnote id="F2"> Option exercisable in increments of 7,142 shares on each of October 6, 1997, January 5, 1998, January 5, 1999, January 5, 2000 and January 4, 2001.</footnote>
