<FN>

Note - Net income (loss) per share has been computed on the average number of
common shares outstanding, including common stock equivalents.  The assumed
conversion of the Company's 6 percent convertible debentures was not included
in average shares outstanding because the effect of the inclusion would be
anti-dilutive.
