        <footnote id="F1">All Common Stock numbers, common stock prices, and Preferred Stock conversion price have been adjusted to reflect the issuer's 1-for-10 reverse stock split effective on December 23, 2003.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Reflects the automatic conversion of 1,250 shares of Preferred Stock directly owned by Global Capital Funding Group, L.P. (&quot;Global&quot;) based on the conversion price of $1.00. The reporting person is an equity owner of the sole general partner of Global and, therefore, may be deemed to share voting and investment power with respect to such securities. The filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of such securities. Conversion was determined by dividing the liquidation price with respect to the Preferred Stock (which is equal to the issuance price of $1,000 per share plus any accrued, but unpaid dividends) by the conversion price. The conversion reflects accrued, but unpaid dividends of $153.33 per share with respect to the 1,250 shares of Preferred Stock owned by Global.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">The warrant, which was issued in connection with the purchase of Preferred Stock, was waived and terminated by Global effective as of February 26, 2004 in connection with the automatic conversion of the Preferred Stock and the issuer's private placement of Common Stock on February 26, 2004.</footnote>
