The New Note replaces the prior $20,000,000 Senior Fixed Rate Convertible Note that was issued by MMCI and held by MassMutual. The dollar amount of principal of the New Note is convertible into an equivalent dollar amount of MMCI's common shares based upon the average price of MMCI's common shares for ten business days prior to MassMutual's notice of conversion. The ten business day average closing market price of MMCI's common shares for =================== ================= CUSIP No. 576292106 13G PAGE 4 OF 6 PAGES =================== ================= the ten-day period ended November 30, 2007 was $30.60 and as such the New Note would have converted into approximately 980,392 common shares if the New Note had been converted as of November 30th. Since the conversion rate is based on the market price of MMCI's common shares, MassMutual's beneficial ownership may be slightly greater than or less than 10% at the end of any given month. Total shares of common shares owned directly and indirectly: 980,392 (subject to change with market). Additionally, Cornerstone Real Estate Advisers LLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of MassMutual is the beneficial owner of 27,009 common shares of MMCI.
