On November 27, 2001, Marc Kaysen filed a purported class action in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned KAYSON V.
CROSS, ET AL., 01 Civ. 10707 (HB), allegedly on behalf of himself and all
purchasers of the Company's stock pursuant to or traceable to the Company's
initial public offering (the "Offering"). The complaint names as defendants the
Company, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and
Chairman of the Board of Directors, and the underwriters of the Offering. The
complaint alleges causes of action for violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and
15 of the Securities Act of 1933, based on, among other things, supposed
materially false and misleading statements and omissions in the Offering's
registration statement and prospectus. The complaint seeks rescission of
plaintiffs' purchases and other unspecified damages. Although the Company has
not yet been served with the complaint, the Company believes that the
complaint's allegations lack merit and intends to defend the action vigorously.
