issuable upon the exercise of warrants owned by Greenway, and (vi) 680 shares issuable upon the

by the Company in the Rights Offer. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to have direct beneficial
ownership of Shares as set forth in the following table. In such table, pursuant to Rule 13d-3,
(a) the Greenbelt 2005 Consulting Shares and the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants
owned by Greenbelt are deemed outstanding for determining the percentage ownership of Shares by
Greenbelt, (b) the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants owned by Greenway are deemed
outstanding for determining the percentage ownership of Shares by Greenway, (c) the shares issuable
upon the exercise of the warrants owned by Mr. Kingsley are deemed outstanding for determining the

Shares which Greenway may be deemed to possess direct beneficial ownership. Each of Messrs.
Kingsley and Duberstein, and Greenbrook and Greenmint, through their ability to control Greenhouse,
may be deemed to beneficially own Shares which Greenhouse may be deemed to beneficially own. Each
of Messrs. Kingsley and Duberstein, and Greenbrook and Greenmint, disclaims beneficial ownership of
such Shares for all other purposes.
(b) If Greenbelt were to exercise in full the warrants it owns, which are all presently
exercisable, and when the 135,000 Greenbelt 2005 Consulting Shares are issued, it would have the
sole power to vote or direct the vote of 1,791,330 Shares, and the sole power to dispose or direct
the disposition of such Shares. Each of Messrs. Kingsley and Duberstein, as executive officers and
directors of Greenbelt, may be deemed to share with Greenbelt the power to vote or to direct the
