Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Directors, executive officers and greater-than-ten-percent shareholders are required by Commission regulations to furnish Infinity with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file.
Based solely on the written and oral representations of its directors and executive officers and a review of copies of Forms 3, 4 and 5 that were filed with the Commission, Infinity believes that all filing requirements pursuant to Section 16(a) were complied with during 2004 with the exception of Messrs.
