Additional Information (a)(5) On June 19, 2002, a purported class action complaint was filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery against the Company, each of the Company's directors, Parent and Purchaser (the "Complaint"). The Complaint purports to assert claims on behalf of all public stockholders of the Company. The Complaint alleges, among other things, that (i) the individual defendants breached a fiduciary duty of disclosure by failing to disclose certain allegedly material information in publicly-filed documents and (ii) Parent and Purchaser are acting in violation of Section 203 of Delaware General Corporations Law by purportedly failing to obtain the approval of the Company's board of directors before becoming an "interested stockholder" (as that term is defined under Section 203) of the Company. The Complaint seeks, among other things, (1) certification of this action as a class action, plaintiff as the class representative and the attorneys as class counsel; (2) to enjoin the Offer; (3) an award of recissory and/or monetary damages; and (4) such other relief as the Court deems equitable and just, including attorneys' fees and costs. The foregoing summary of the Complaint is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Complaint, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(C) hereto and incorporated by reference herein. On June 26, 2002, the parties to the Complaint entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with respect to a proposed settlement of the purported stockholder class action stockholder. The Memorandum of Understanding provides for certain additional disclosure set forth in the Company's Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 14D-9 to be filed with the SEC and for full releases of the defendants and certain related or affiliated persons and extinguishes all claims that have been, could have been or could be asserted by or on behalf of any member of the class against the defendants and/or any related or affiliated persons which in any manner relate to the allegations, facts or other matters raised in the lawsuits or which otherwise relate to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Offer and the Merger. The Memorandum of Understanding provides for the payment of up to $175,000 of fees and expenses for the plaintiff's counsel upon final approval of the settlement of the actions. The final settlement of the Complaint, including the amount of attorneys' fees to be paid, is subject to court approval and there can be no assurance that such approval will be obtained. The defendants to the lawsuits have denied that they have engaged in any wrongdoing whatsoever, and have agreed to the Memorandum of Understanding to eliminate the burden and expense of further litigation and to permit the Offer and Merger to proceed as scheduled. The foregoing summary of the Memorandum of Understanding is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Memorandum of Understanding, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(D) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
