         (1) Computation based on the term beneficial ownership as used in the
         regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission which, for
         purposes of the computation of ownership by the named holder, deems
         outstanding shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options
         and convertible securities exercisable or convertible on the date, and
         within sixty days following the date, of determination of beneficial
         ownership. As of April 1, 1999, 2,384,000 shares of common stock were
         actually issued and outstanding.

         (2) The indicated trust (the "Trust") was created pursuant to a Trust
         Agreement, dated as of September 11, 1992, between Milton Nevitt, as
         grantor, and Stephen Nevitt and David B. Newman, as trustees. Such
         trustees have the sole power to vote the shares held by the Trust. The
         children of Milton Nevitt, including Stephen Nevitt, are the
         beneficiaries under the Trust.

         (3) Includes 506,103 shares held by the Trust, for which such
         beneficial owner acts as trustee.

         (4) Includes 681,974 shares issuable upon exercise of options granted
         pursuant to the Plan. Stephen Nevitt, pursuant to exercise of a power
         granted in the subscription agreement covering the issuance of the
         Company's Preferred Shares (as described in Footnote (9) below), has
         the power to direct the voting of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
         conversion thereof for the election of a majority of the directors of
         the Company through October 2000. The table does not include shares of
         Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Preferred Shares.

         (5) Includes 68,026 shares issuable upon exercise of options granted
         pursuant to the Plan.

         (6) Includes 50,000 shares issuable upon exercise of options granted
         pursuant to the Plan.

         (7) Includes 15,000 shares issuable upon exercise of options granted
         pursuant to the Plan.

         (8) Represents shares issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrant
         which entitles the holder to purchase such number of shares at an
         exercise price of $5.50 per share at any time prior to September 30,
         2001.

         (9) Includes 750,000 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants granted
         to RBB. RBB is the registered owner of 7,500 shares of Series A 6.5%
         Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A Stock"), 7,500 shares of Series
         B 6% Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Stock") and 7,500 shares of
         Series C 6% Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series C Stock"; collectively
         with the Series A Stock and the Series B Stock, the "Preferred Shares")
         of the Company. Such Preferred Shares is presently convertible into
         shares of Common Stock of the Company at a price determined by dividing
         the stated value of the series ($7,500,000 for each) by a price equal
         to the lower of (i) $5.50 in the case of the Series A Stock, $6.75 in
         the case of the Series B Stock and $8.25 in the case of the Series C
         Stock, and (ii) 80% of the average market price (as defined) for the
         ten consecutive trading days ending three days prior to the notice of
         conversion. As of April 1, 1999, the average market price for the ten
         previous consecutive trading days was approximately $0.65 per share.
         The above computation of beneficial ownership excludes shares of Common
         Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. See "Legal
         Proceedings" and "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."

         (10) Such information was set forth in a Schedule 13D, dated October
         24, 1997. Such Schedule 13D also stated that the spouse of Mr. Fox owns
         an additional 600 shares of Common Stock and that Mr. Fox disclaims
         beneficial ownership with respect to those shares.

         (11) Includes 815,000 shares issuable upon exercise of options granted
         to pursuant to the Plan and 506,103 shares of the Company's Common
         Stock held by the Trust, with Stephen Nevitt and David B. Newman as
         trustees.
