SRA owns 89,400 shares of Issuer common stock, and warrants that are presently exercisable to purchase an additional 735,000 shares of Issuer common stock. (h) Mr. Atkins, therefore, has sole voting power and sole investment power over 40,557 shares of common stock and shared voting power and shared investment power over 2,256,049 shares of common stock, representing in the aggregate 21.0% of the sum of, pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i), (A) 10,980,834 outstanding shares of the Issuer, and (B) options to acquire 12,000 shares of Issuer common stock.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. (a) Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt are business associates. Because their acquisition, voting, and disposition activities could cause them to be deemed to be a "group" (as defined in Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Mr. Atkins and 12 Mr. Hewitt have entered into an agreement evidencing that, unless and until either person decides otherwise, each will conduct his activities with respect to the Issuer's securities as if the two of them are a "group" (as defined in Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). (b) On June 25, 2001, SI entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Issuer in connection with the receipt of Issuer stock in exchange for SI's interest in an office building.
