(1) Reporting Person is a trustee and beneficiary with others of this trust.

(3) The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of all securities held by his children and this report should not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other reason.
(4) The Reporting Person owns 805,130 options with various exercise prices and various expiration dates.
(5) The amount of securities in the Reporting Person's 401(k) is derived by combining the value of contributions by Reporting Person to his 401(k) plus the Company matches to the Reporting Person's 401(k) and dividing this account balance by the Issuer's stock price as of 12/31/03 - this equals the reported number of shares in the Reporting Person's 401(k) account.
