(1) The options expire ten years from grant date and vest 20% annually over five
    years.

(2) The total number of options granted to OCC employees in 2000 was 2,611,500.

(3) On Command used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine grant
    date present values using the following assumptions for the year 2000: stock
    price volatility of 47.7%, a five year option term, a risk-free rate of
    return range from 4.99% to 6.71%, and no dividend yield. Forfeitures are
    reflected as they occur. The use of this model is in accordance with SEC
    rules; however the actual value of an option will be measured by the
    difference between the stock price and the exercise price on the date the
    option is exercised.

EMPLOYMENT AND SEVERANCE ARRANGEMENTS

        In September 1996, the Company and Mr. Steel entered into an employment
agreement that was to expire on September 11, 2000. Pursuant to the agreement,
Mr. Steel's initial base salary was $290,000 per year, subject to increases at
the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company. Under the agreement,
Mr. Steel was eligible for annual bonuses based on performance measures
determined by the Compensation Committee with a target bonus equal to 70% of Mr.
Steel's base salary for achieving 100% of the target level for the performance
measures. In addition, Mr. Steel was granted options to purchase 385,312 shares
of On Command Common Stock, exercisable at the following per-share prices: (i)
80% of such options at a per-share price equal to $15.33 and (ii) 20% of such
options at a per-share price equal to $16.40. The options vested 25% on
September 11, 1997 and an additional 25% on September 11, 1998, and the
remaining 50% were to vest on September 11, 1999. The agreement provided that
the options would expire at the earlier of (i) three months after the date upon
which Mr. Steel is terminated for "cause" (as defined in the employment
agreement); (ii) one year after Mr. Steel's employment agreement is terminated
as a result of death; or (iii) on September 11, 2006.

        In addition, the employment agreement for Mr. Steel provides that upon a
"Change of Control Event" (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Steel will be
entitled to elect to terminate his employment with the Company and, for the
longer of (a) the remainder of the term of his employment agreement as if such
agreement had not been terminated and (b) one year following the date of such
termination (such period being the "Duration Period"), will receive: (i) his
then current base salary; (ii) an annual bonus equal to 70% of his then current
base salary for each year during the Duration Period; and (iii) all other
benefits provided pursuant to the employment agreement. A "Change of Control
Event" is defined in the employment agreement as an affirmative determination,
either jointly by Mr. Steel and the Board of Directors or pursuant to an
arbitration which Mr. Steel has the right to invoke, that any "change of
control" of the Company (defined as an event as result of which (i) a single
person or entity other than Ascent or its affiliates owns 50% or more of the
voting stock of the Company or (ii) a single person or entity other than COMSAT
Corporation ("COMSAT") or its affiliates (which as of the date of the employment
agreements held approximately 80% of the outstanding Common Stock of Ascent, but
which consummated the distribution of its 80.67% ownership interest in Ascent to
the COMSAT shareholders on June 27, 1997) owns directly or indirectly 50% or
more of the voting stock of Ascent) or prospective change of control would be
reasonably likely to have a materially detrimental effect on either the
day-to-day circumstances of Mr. Steel's employment, or the compensation payable
to Mr. Steel under his employment agreement.

        On December 28, 1998, On Command and Mr. Steel entered into an amendment
to Mr. Steel's employment agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, Mr. Steel
assumed the title of President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company
through September


                                       7
<PAGE>   8
11, 2000, while reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and Board of
Directors of the Company, and if there was no Chief Executive Officer, then to
the Chairman. In addition, under the terms of the amendment (i) Mr. Steel's base
salary was increased to $375,000 per year and (ii) if the Company failed to
review Mr. Steel's compensation prior to June 1, 1999 or revise such
compensation prior to August 1, 1999, then Mr. Steel would be entitled to
terminate his employment with the Company and receive (a) his then base salary
for a year from such termination, and (b) a pro-rated annual bonus for the year
in which employment was terminated, and (iii) if Mr. Steel terminated his
employment pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii), then a pro-rated portion of
the options previously granted to Mr. Steel under the Company's stock option
plans that were scheduled to vest during the year of such termination, would
vest as of the date of such termination and would expire on the first
anniversary of such termination. Although the Company and Mr. Steel entered into
negotiations regarding his position and compensation at the Company during the
above time periods, Mr. Steel's compensation was not revised prior to August 1,
1999 and on August 6, 1999, Mr. Steel resigned from the Company pursuant to the
terms of his amended employment agreement.

        On January 7, 2000, On Command and Allan Goodson entered into an
employment agreement that expires on January 7, 2002. Pursuant to the agreement,
Mr. Goodson's initial base salary under the agreement is $300,000 per year,
subject to increases at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.
Under the agreement, Mr. Goodson is eligible for annual bonuses based on
performance measures determined by the Company's Compensation Committee with a
target bonus equal to 70% of Mr. Goodson's base salary for achieving 100% of the
target level for the performance measures. In addition, Mr. Goodson has been
granted options to purchase 100,000 shares of On Command Common Stock,
exercisable at a per-share price equal to $15.90625. The options vest 50% on
January 7, 2001 and 50% on January 7, 2002. The options will expire at the
earliest of: (i) three months after the date upon which Mr. Goodson is
terminated for "cause" (as defined in the employment agreement); (ii) one year
after Mr. Goodson's employment agreement is terminated as a result of death; or
(iii) on January 7, 2010. Mr. Goodson's agreement does not contain
"change-of-control" provisions.

        In addition, Mr. Goodson's agreement provides that if Mr. Goodson is
terminated without "cause" (as defined in the agreement) or upon any substantial
reduction (except in connection with the termination of his employment
voluntarily by Mr. Goodson, or by the Company for "cause") by the Company of Mr.
Goodson's responsibilities as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating
Officer of the Company, or the Company is in material default of the agreement,
then: (i) there shall be no forfeiture of any rights or interests related to
fringe benefits granted under the agreement, including, without limitation, the
SARs and any other stock-based incentives, except that half of his 100,000
options will vest, to the extent not previously vested, and the other half of
which will be canceled, immediately upon such termination becoming effective and
final; (ii) the executive shall receive current base salary, fringe benefits and
the annual bonus outlined in the agreement for the longer of (a) the remainder
of the employment period under the agreement or (b) one year following the date
of such termination, with no obligation to seek other employment and no offset
to the amounts paid by the Company if other employment is obtained; and (iii)
all other benefits provided pursuant to the agreement shall be received by the
executive. In May 2000, Mr. Goodson's employment was terminated.

        In February 1999, the Company adopted a change of control severance plan
for the Company's executive officers at or above the level of vice president
(the "Severance Plan"). Under the Severance Plan, such employees are eligible
for certain payments and benefits, if within one year of a Change of Control,
such employee's employment is either terminated by the Company for any reason
other than death, disability or cause, or is terminated by the employee for good
reason. "Change of Control" is defined as any event as a result of which any
single entity or "group" (as defined in Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) other
than Ascent or a group of which Ascent is a part owns more than fifty percent
(50%) of the voting stock of the Company.

        Under the Severance Plan eligible employees would be entitled to salary
continuation of from six months to twelve months depending upon the employee's
length of service, an annual bonus prorated to the effective date of
termination, and during the relevant period of salary continuation, continued
participation in the Company's benefit plans. In addition, stock options held by
an eligible employee would become 100% vested immediately and remain exercisable
for one year.

DIRECTORS COMPENSATION

        In May 1997 the Company adopted a compensation plan for Independent
Directors (defined as directors who are not employees of the Company).
Independent Directors are entitled to receive an annual retainer of $6,000 in
cash, payable quarterly; $500 for each Board meeting attended; and $500 for each
meeting of a Committee of the Board attended. Each Independent Director who is
also a chairman of a Committee of the Board is entitled to receive an additional
annual fee of $2,000, payable in equal quarterly amounts. In addition, pursuant
to the 1997 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan, as amended (the "Directors
Plan"), each Independent Director is entitled to (a) an annual award of 400
shares of the Company's Common Stock, awarded immediately following the
Company's annual meeting of stockholders and (b) a one-time grant of an option
to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (an "Option"). Any
Independent Director who receives a grant of an Option will not be eligible to
receive an additional grant of an Option until the fifth annual meeting after
the original grant. The Options vest 25% on the first anniversary of grant, and
25% and 50%, respectively, on the second and third anniversaries, or 100% upon a
change in control of the Company, as defined in the Directors Plan.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        On February 22, 2000, Ascent entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Liberty and Liberty AEG Acquisition, Inc.
("Merger Sub"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty. Prior to Ascent
entering into the Merger Agreement, the Company's Board of Directors approved
Liberty's indirect acquisition of shares of Common Stock through its acquisition
of Ascent in such Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub commenced
a tender offer (the "Offer") offering Ascent stockholders $15.25 in cash for
each share of Ascent common stock. Liberty commenced the Offer on February 29,
2000 and under its terms and subject to its conditions, the Offer expired on
March 27, 2000, Pursuant to the Offer, Merger Sub purchased 85% of the common
stock of Ascent. Pursuant to Merger Agreement, on June 8, 2000, Merger Sub
merged with and into Ascent (the "Merger") with Ascent as the surviving entity.
As a result of the Merger, Liberty acquired beneficial ownership of the shares
of Common Stock held by Ascent and succeeded to certain of Ascent's rights with
respect to the Company as described below.

        Through its ownership of Ascent, Liberty indirectly owned approximately
56.13% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Stock at December 31,
2000. For so long as Liberty continues to own more than 50% of the outstanding
voting stock of the Company, it will be able, among other things, to approve any
corporate action requiring majority stockholder approval, including the election
of a majority of the Company's directors, effect amendments to the Company's
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and approve any
other matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders without the consent of the
other stockholders of the Company. In addition, through its representation on
the Board of Directors, Liberty is able to influence certain decisions,
including decisions with respect to the Company's dividend policy, the Company's
access to capital (including the decision to incur additional indebtedness or
issue additional shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock), mergers or other
business combinations involving the Company, the acquisition or disposition of
assets by the Company and any change in control of the Company.

        The Company and Ascent were previously parties to a Management Services
Agreement (the "Services Agreement") pursuant to which Ascent provided certain
management services, including insurance, administration, coordination and
advisory services regarding corporate financing, employee benefits
administration, public relations and other corporate functions to the Company
and made available certain of its employee benefit plans to the Company's
employees. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, Ascent was entitled to the
payment of (i) an annual fee of $1.2 million, (ii) the actual cost to Ascent of
the benefits provided to the Company's employees and (iii) certain of Ascent's
actual out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the Services Agreement (not
including overhead and the cost of its personnel). Further, the Company agreed
to indemnify Ascent from all damages from Ascent's performance of services under
the Services Agreement unless such damages are caused by willful breach by
Ascent or willful misconduct or gross negligence by Ascent's employees in
fulfilling its obligations under the Services Agreement. Ascent agreed to
indemnify the Company from damages arising from willful breach by Ascent or
gross negligence or willful misconduct by Ascent's employees in the performance
of the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was for an initial term
through December 31, 1999, renewable for additional one-year terms by Ascent
upon notice to On Command which election Ascent could exercise as long as it and
its subsidiaries owned at least 50% of the outstanding Common Stock. The
Services Agreement was terminated in August 2000. No charges were incurred by
the Company or billed by Ascent pursuant to the Services Agreement during its
term.

        The Company and Ascent also were parties to a Corporate Agreement
governing certain other relationships and arrangements between the Company and
Ascent. Pursuant to the Corporate Agreement, for so long as Ascent beneficially
owned, directly or indirectly, the largest percentage (and at least 40%) of the
outstanding securities of the Company entitled to be cast for the election of
directors, Ascent could propose, at each election of directors, a slate of
directors, or in the case of vacancies, individual directors, for election so
that at all times during the term of the Corporate Agreement, a majority of the
Board of Directors of the Company would be comprised of persons designated by
Ascent. In addition, pursuant to the Corporate Agreement, as amended, for so
long as Ascent owned the largest percentage (and at least 40%) of the
outstanding Common Stock (i) the Company agreed not to incur any indebtedness,
other than that under its existing Credit Facility (and refinancings thereof)
and indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business which together
would not exceed $200 million in the aggregate through June 30, 2000, or issue
any equity securities or any securities convertible into equity securities
without Ascent's prior consent, (ii) the Company agreed not to amend its
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws without Ascent's prior consent, and (iii)
the Company agreed to utilize reasonable cash management procedures and use its
reasonable best efforts to minimize the Company's excess cash holdings. The
Corporate Agreement was terminated in August 2000.

        The Company has made arrangements for the use of an airplane owned by a
limited liability company of which Jerome H. Kern is the sole member. When that
airplane is used for purposes related to the conduct of the Company's business,
the Company reimburses the limited liability company for such use at market
rates. On Command reimbursed that limited liability company an aggregate of
approximately $437,000 during the year ended December 31, 2000.


                                       13
<PAGE>   14
        At a meeting of the Board held on April 6, 2000, Jerome H. Kern was
appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company. Also at that meeting, the Board approved the principal terms of a
purchase by Mr. Kern from the Company of 2,700,000 shares of Common Stock at a
per share price of $15.625, which price was less than the closing price for a
share of Common Stock on that date. Thereafter, Mr. Kern and representatives of
the Company engaged in discussions relating to the structure of Mr. Kern's
equity purchase. On August 4, 2000, following the approval of the Board of
Directors, the Company and Mr. Kern entered into a Stock Purchase and Loan
Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") relating to the purchase by Mr. Kern
of 13,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase
Agreement, on August 10, 2000, Mr. Kern purchased 13,500 shares of Series A
Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $1,562.50 per share, or an aggregate of
$21,093,750. Mr. Kern paid the purchase price for these shares of Series A
Preferred Stock by payment of $13,500 in cash and the execution of a promissory
note, dated August 10, 2000 (the "Secured Note"), payable to the order of the
Company and bearing an initial principal amount of $21,080,250. The payment of
principal of and interest on the Secured Note is secured by a pledge of the
13,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued to Mr. Kern, and any proceeds
thereof, pursuant to the terms of a Pledge and Security Agreement, dated August
10, 2000 (the "Pledge and Security Agreement"), between the Company and Mr.
Kern.

        Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations for the Series
A Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designations"), each share of Series A
Preferred Stock may be converted at any time, at the option of the holder, into
100 shares of Common Stock (subject to certain customary adjustments) (the
"Conversion Rate"). In addition, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will,
subject to the receipt of any required governmental consents and approvals,
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the then effective
Conversion Rate upon the satisfaction of all of Mr. Kern's obligations under the
Secured Note. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will participate in any
dividends or distributions on the Common Stock on an as-converted basis, but
otherwise are not entitled to receive any regular dividends. Shares of Series A
Preferred Stock are entitled to a preference on liquidation equal to $.01 per
share, and thereafter will participate with the shares of Common Stock in any
liquidating distributions on an as-converted basis. Shares of Series A Preferred
Stock vote together with the Common Stock on all matters presented to a vote of
the stockholders of the Company, and holders of Series A Preferred Stock are
entitled to one vote per share of Series A Preferred Stock held. Pursuant to the
terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Kern has agreed that if the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock held by him become entitled to vote as a separate class
on any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company he will cause such
shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be voted for or against such matter in the
same proportion as the holders of shares of Common Stock vote upon such matter.

        The Secured Note has an initial principal amount of $21,080,250 and,
unless accelerated earlier, will mature and become payable, together with
accrued interest, on August 1, 2005. Interest on the Secured Note will accrue at
a rate of 7% per annum, compounded quarterly. Upon the occurrence of certain
events of default, the interest rate will increase to 9% per annum. The Secured
Note is nonrecourse against Mr. Kern personally except for an amount equal to
25% of the principal of and accrued interest on the Secured Note. In determining
Mr. Kern's personal liability under the Secured Note, the Company must first
proceed against the shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or proceeds thereof)
held as collateral for the Secured Note, with such proceeds being applied first
to the obligations for which Mr. Kern is personally liable. Except in connection
with the repurchase by the Company of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof, as described below,
neither the principal of nor interest on the Secured Note may be prepaid. In the
event of such a repurchase, the proceeds thereof will be applied to the
repayment of principal of and interest on the Secured Note.

        The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that Mr. Kern and the Company will
enter into a mutually acceptable registration rights agreement having customary
terms and conditions and providing Mr. Kern with two demand registration rights
(each of which may be a "shelf" registration) in respect of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, but will
not provide any rights to participate in registrations initiated by the Company
or others. If Mr. Kern's employment with the Company is terminated before April
6, 2005 by the Company for cause (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) or
by Mr. Kern without good reason (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement),
the Company will have the right to repurchase all or a specified portion
(depending upon the date on which Mr. Kern's employment is terminated) of the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or shares of Common Stock issued upon
conversion thereof, for a purchase price that is equivalent to the amount of Mr.
Kern's indebtedness related thereto under the Secured Note. The Company will be
entitled to offset the purchase price of any such shares of Series A Preferred
Stock or Common Stock against the principal of and interest on the Secured Note.

        The Stock Purchase Agreement and the Pledge and Security Agreement
provide that Mr. Kern may not directly or indirectly sell, exchange or otherwise
dispose of, or grant any option or other right with respect to, or create or
suffer any lien or other encumbrance on, any of the collateral under the Pledge
and Security Agreement (including the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued
to Mr. Kern or shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) except
that (a) to the extent that the Company's repurchase right under the Stock
Purchase Agreement has expired, Mr. Kern may direct the Company to effect a sale
of the portion of the collateral with respect to which such repurchase right has
expired, provided that the proceeds of any such sale are held in an


                                       14
<PAGE>   15
escrow account pending the date all amounts under the Secured Note become due
and owing and (b) Mr. Kern is entitled to assign his rights to the pledged
collateral to an entity if (i) Mr. Kern holds at least 50% of the equity
interests of such entity, (ii) Mr. Kern "controls" (as that term is defined in
the Stock Purchase Agreement) such entity, (iii) the financial obligations of
such entity under the Secured Note and the Pledge and Security Agreement have
been personally guaranteed by Mr. Kern and (iv) such entity becomes a party to
and bound by Mr. Kern's obligations under the Pledge and Security Agreement. In
addition, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued to Mr. Kern are
"restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
and accordingly may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless
such sale, transfer or other disposition is effected pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to a valid exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

        On March 5, 2001, the Company 15,000 shares of the Company's Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $.01 per share (the "Series B
Preferred Stock"), to Ascent in consideration of $15,000,000 in cash, pursuant
to a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated March 5, 2001 (the "Ascent
Purchase Agreement"), between the Company and Ascent.

        The liquidation preference (the "Liquidation Preference") of each share
of the Series B Preferred Stock as of any date of determination is equal to the
sum of (a) the stated value per share of $1,000, plus (b) an amount equal to all
dividends accrued on such share which have been added to and remain a part of
the Liquidation Preference as of such date, plus (c) for purposes of the
liquidation and redemption provisions of the Series B Preferred Stock, an amount
equal to all unpaid dividends accrued on the sum of the amounts specified in
clauses (a) and (b) above during the period from and including the immediately
preceding dividend payment date to but excluding the date in question.

        The holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive
cumulative dividends, when and as declared by the Company, in preference to
dividends on junior securities, including the common stock and the Series A
Preferred Stock. Dividends accrue on the Series B Preferred Stock on a daily
basis at the rate of 8.5% per annum of the Liquidation Preference from and
including March 5, 2001 to but excluding April 15, 2001 and at the rate of 12%
per annum of the Liquidation Preference from and including April 15, 2001 to but
excluding the date on which the Liquidation Preference is made available
pursuant to a redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock or a liquidation of the
Company. Accrued dividends are payable monthly, commencing on April 15, 2001, in
cash. Dividends not paid on any dividend payment date are added to the
Liquidation Preference on such date and remain a part of the Liquidation
Preference until such dividends are paid. Dividends added to the Liquidation
Preference shall accrue dividends on a daily basis at the rate of 12% per annum.
Accrued dividends not paid as provided above on any dividend payment date
accumulate and such accumulated unpaid dividends may be declared and paid at any
time without reference to any regular dividend payment date, to holders of
record of Series B Preferred Stock as of a special record date fixed by the
Company. Subject to certain specified exceptions, the Company is prohibited from
paying dividends on any parity securities or any junior securities (including
common stock) during any period in which the Company is in arrears with respect
to payment of dividends on Series B Preferred Stock.

        Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the
holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive from the assets of
the Company available for distribution to stockholders an amount in cash per
share equal to the Liquidation Preference of a share of Series B Preferred
Stock, after payment is made on any senior securities and before any
distribution or payment is made on any junior securities, which payment will be
made ratably among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of
any parity securities. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled
to no other or further distribution of or participation in the remaining assets
of the Company after receiving the Liquidation Preference per share. Series B
Preferred Stock is not convertible into any other security of the Company.

        Shares of Series B Preferred Stock are redeemable at the option of the
Company at any time after March 5, 2001 at a redemption price per share payable
in cash equal to the Liquidation Preference of such share on the redemption
date. Any redemptions by the Company are required to be made pro rata if less
than all shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be redeemed.

        At any time on or after April 15, 2001, or prior to that date if an
event described as a "default" below has occurred and is continuing, any holder
of Series B Preferred Stock has the right to require the Company to redeem all
or any portion of such holder's shares for a redemption price per share payable
in cash equal to the Liquidation Preference of that share on the redemption
date. The Company will redeem shares at the option of the holder out of funds
that are legally available for that purpose and not restricted pursuant to the
Company's Credit Agreement. If the legally available funds are insufficient for
that purpose, the Company will redeem the maximum number possible of the shares
requested to be redeemed on the redemption date and will redeem the balance of
such shares as additional funds become legally available.


                                       15
<PAGE>   16
        If and so long as the Company fails to redeem all shares of Series B
Preferred Stock required to be redeemed on a particular redemption date, the
Company may not redeem or discharge any sinking fund obligation with respect to
any shares of Series B Preferred Stock or any parity securities or junior
securities or pay any dividends on any junior securities, and neither the
Company nor any of its subsidiaries may purchase or otherwise acquire any shares
of Series B Preferred Stock, parity securities or junior securities unless all
shares of Series B Preferred Stock required to be redeemed are redeemed. The
foregoing prohibitions do not apply to certain purchase or exchange offers made
to all holders of Series B Preferred Stock.

        Series B Preferred Stock will not rank junior to any other capital stock
of the Company in respect of rights of redemption or rights to receive dividends
or liquidating distributions. The Company may not issue any senior securities
without the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the number of shares
of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding.

        Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any
matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, except as
required by law and except that without the consent of the holders of at least
66 2/3% of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding,
the Company may not take any action, including by merger, to amend any of the
provisions of the certificate of designations of the Series B Preferred Stock
(the "Certificate of Designations") or amend any of the provisions of the
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company so as to
adversely affect any preference or right of the Series B Preferred Stock Any
provision of the Certificate of Designations which, for the benefit of the
holders of Series B Preferred Stock, prohibits, limits or restricts actions by,
or imposes obligations on, the Company may be waived in whole or in part by the
affirmative vote or with the consent of the holders of record of at least 66
2/3% of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding.
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock do not have any preemptive right to purchase
any class of securities that may be issued by the Company.

        A default under the Certificate of Designations occurs if any of the
following occur: (1) the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the
Company under any Bankruptcy law or the appointment of a Receiver of the Company
or of any substantial part of its properties, or ordering the winding up or
liquidation of the affairs of the Company or the filing of an involuntary
petition and the entry of a temporary stay and such petition and stay are not
diligently contested or continue undismissed for a period of 60 consecutive
days; or (2) the filing by the Company of a petition, answer or consent seeking
relief under any Bankruptcy Law or the consent by the Company to the institution
of proceedings under any Bankruptcy Law or to the filing of any such petition or
to the appointment or taking of possession of a Receiver of the Company or any
substantial part of its properties or the Company failing generally to pay its
respective debts as they become due or taking any action in furtherance of any
such action.

        In the event of any action at law or suit in equity with respect to the
Series B Preferred Stock, the Company may be required to pay reasonable sums for
attorneys' fees incurred by the holder thereof in connection with such action or
suit and all other costs of collections.
