- -----------

(1)  Based on the modified treasury stock method pursuant to paragraph 38 of
     Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15. No amounts are presented for
     the nine month periods ended October 31, 1996 and 1995 or the fiscal years
     ended January 31, 1996 and 1995 as the net effect is antidilutive for both
     the primary and fully diluted computations.

(2)  Represents common stock equivalent shares for stock granted since
     March 6, 1996 using the treasury stock method and the $13.00 estimated
     initial public offering price per share pursuant to Staff Accounting
     Bulletin No. 83.

(3)  There is no difference between the number of weighted average shares used
     in the fiscal year 1994 primary and fully diluted computations as the
     average fair value of the Company's Common Stock exceeded its fair value at
     the end of the fiscal year.

(4)  This computation is submitted in accordance with Regulation S-K Item
     601(b)(11) although not required by Accounting Principles Board Opinion
     No. 15 because it results in dilution of less than 3%.
