EXHIBIT 1
The following table indicates total percentage of voting power of
outstanding shares of the Issuer possessed by any group member who has sole or
shared voting power of any shares and by the group as a whole. Due to the fact
that each share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters
submitted to stockholders and each share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to
ten votes on all such matters, equity percentage is not equivalent to voting
percentage.
Stockholder Voting Percentage

Timothy P. Horne 73.9%
George B. Horne 0.1%
-----------------------------------
Group 73.9%
The following table indicates the percentage of the outstanding shares of
Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by each group member and by the entire
group as a whole. The percentages were determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

EXHIBIT 2
All Class B Common Stock shares beneficially owned by members of the group
are held individually by or in trust for the benefit of Timothy P. Horne, George
B. Horne, Daniel W. Horne, Deborah Horne, Tara V. Horne, Tiffany R. Horne and
Peter W. Horne, and any voting trust certificates representing such shares, are
subject to an Amended and Restated Stock Restriction Agreement (the
"Agreement"). Upon any proposed voluntary transfer or transfer by operation of
law of Class B Common Stock or voting trust certificates representing such
shares by any of the above stockholders, or upon the death of such a stockholder
holding such shares or voting trust certificates, the other parties to the
Agreement (other than George B. Horne) have a pro rata right of first refusal to
purchase such shares (including a second opportunity to elect to purchase any
shares not purchased under the first right of refusal).
The purchase price per share is the 15-day average trading price of the
Issuer's Class A Common Stock while publicly traded, except in the case of
certain involuntary transfers, in which case the purchase price is book value.
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the
Agreement which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 2 to the Issuer's
Current Report on Form 8-K dated October 31, 1991, and to the text of Amendment
No. 1 to the Agreement which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit
10.21 to the Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K dated September 16, 1997.

The 1,651,220 shares of Class B Common Stock held by Timothy P. Horne,
individually, 1,210,840 shares of Class B Common Stock held by a trust for the
benefit of Daniel W. Horne, 1,210,840 shares of Class B Common Stock held by a
trust for the benefit of Deborah Horne, 1,924,600 shares of Class B Common Stock
held by a trust for the benefit of George B. Horne, 1,085,840 shares of Class B
Common Stock held by a trust for the benefit of Peter W. Horne, and 22,600 and
20,200 shares of Class B Common Stock held for the benefit of Tiffany Rae Horne
(Mr. Horne's daughter) and Tara V. Horne (Mr. Horne's daughter), respectively,
under irrevocable trusts for which Mr. Horne serves as trustee, (7,273,880
shares of Class B Common Stock in the aggregate) are subject to the terms of The
George B. Horne Voting Trust Agreement-1997 (the "1997 Voting Trust"). Under the
terms of the 1997 Voting Trust, the trustee (currently Timothy P. Horne) has
sole power to vote all shares subject to the 1997 Voting Trust.
Under the terms of the 1997 Voting Trust, in the event Timothy P. Horne
ceases to serve as trustee of the 1997 Voting Trust, then David Dietz, whose
professional corporation is a partner in the law firm of Goodwin Procter LLP,
and Walter J. Flowers, a partner in the law firm of Flowers and Manning, LLP
(each, a "Successor Trustee" and collectively, the "Successor Trustees"), shall
thereupon become co-trustees of the 1997 Voting Trust if such individuals are
willing and able to succeed. At any time, Timothy P. Horne, if then living and
not subject to incapacity, may designate up to two additional persons, one to be
designated as the primary designee (the "Primary Designee") and the other as the
secondary designee ("Secondary Designee"), to serve in the stead of any
Successor Trustee who shall be unable or unwilling to serve as a trustee of the
1997 Voting Trust. Such designations are revocable by Timothy P. Horne at any
time prior to the time at which such designees become a trustee. If any of the
Successor Trustees is unable or unwilling or shall otherwise fail to serve as a
trustee of the 1997 Voting Trust, or after becoming a co-trustee shall cease to
serve as such for any reason, then a third person shall become a co-trustee with
the remaining two trustees, in accordance with the following line of succession:
first, any individual designated as the Primary Designee, next, any individual
designated as the Secondary Designee, and then, an individual appointed by the
holders of a majority in interest of the voting trust certificates then
outstanding. In the event that the Successor Trustees shall not concur on
matters not specifically contemplated by the terms of the 1997 Voting Trust, the
vote of a majority of the Successor Trustees shall be determinative. No trustee
or Successor Trustee shall possess the Determination Power unless it is
specifically conferred upon such trustee pursuant to the provisions of the 1997
Voting Trust.
The 1997 Voting Trust expires on August 26, 2021, subject to extension on
or after August 26, 2019 by stockholders (including the trustee of any trust
stockholder, whether or not such trust is then in existence) who deposited
shares of Class B Common Stock in the 1997 Voting Trust and are then living or,
in the case of shares in the 1997 Voting Trust the original depositor of which
(or the trustee of the original depositor of which) is not then living, the
holders of voting trust certificates representing such shares. The 1997 Voting
Trust may be amended by vote of the holders of a majority of the voting trust
certificates then outstanding and by the number of trustees authorized to take
action at the relevant time. Shares may not be removed from the 1997 Voting
Trust during its term without the consent of the trustees. The 1997 Voting Trust
CUSIP No. 942749 10 2 13G Page 17 of 17
expires on August 26, 2021, subject to extension on or after August 26, 2019 by
stockholders (including the trustee of any trust stockholder, whether or nor
such trust is then in existence) who deposited shares of Class B Common Stock in
the 1997 Voting Trust and are then living or, in the case of shares in the 1997
Voting Trust the original depositor of which (or the trustee of the original
depositor of which) is not then living, the holders of voting trust certificates
representing such shares. The 1997 Voting Trust may be amended by vote of the
holders of a majority of the voting trust certificates then outstanding and by
the number of trustees authorized to take action at the relevant time. Shares
may not be removed from the 1997 Voting Trust during its term without the
consent of the trustees.
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 1997 Voting
Trust which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 9.2 of the Issuer's
Annual Report on Form 10-K dated September 28, 1999 filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
