(1)  The securities to be registered include options to acquire Common Stock.

(2)  The Plan provides for the possible adjustment of the number, price and kind
     of shares covered by options granted or to be granted in the event of
     certain capital or other changes affecting Registrant's Common Stock. This
     Registration Statement therefore covers, in addition to the above-stated
     shares, an indeterminate number of shares that may become subject to the
     Plan by means of any such adjustment.

(3)  Pursuant to Rule 457(h), estimated solely for the purpose of computing the
     registration fee, based upon (i) the aggregate exercise price of $3.6812
     for the 1,385,597 shares underlying outstanding options, and (ii) as to the
     remaining 764,403 shares available, $5.75 per share, which is the average
     of the high and low sales prices of Registrant's Common Stock on April 22,
     2002 as reported in the Nasdaq National Market.

(4)  The actual offering price will be determined in accordance with the terms
     of the Plan. However, with respect to an incentive stock option, in no
     event shall such price be less than 100% of the fair market value of
     Registrant's Common Stock on the date on which the option is granted.
