Explanation of Responses:
(1) On February 6, 2001, the reporting person filed a Form 4 mistakenly reporting the Amount of Securities
Beneficially Owned as 165,220. As of January 31, 2001, the reporting person owned only 150,220 shares of
common stock. All acquisitions and dispositions were reported properly, the mistake was simply an error
in the reported total number of securities beneficially owned.
(2) Options vest 50% after one year and the remaining 50% after the second year from date of grant.
