        <footnote id="F1">The 2003 Form 3 inadvertently failed to account for 1,500 additional shares of Common Stock, Par Value $0.24 (&quot;Common Stock&quot;), beneficially owned by the Estate of Arch C. Scurlock (the &quot;Estate&quot;).  The 785,922 shares set forth herein includes such 1,500 shares of Common Stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The 2003 Form 3 incorrectly stated that the Estate's ownership form was indirect instead of direct.  The 785,922 shares set forth herein are owned directly by the Estate and indirectly by Nancy M. Scurlock, Executrix of the Estate.</footnote>
    </footnotes>

    <remarks>The Form 3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2003 (the &quot;2003 Form 3&quot;) listed the name of the Reporting Person incorrectly and the address of the Reporting Person has since changed.</remarks>
