(a) Adjustments to income have been shown net of tax effects which were
    calculated at 34.8% (the Company's effective tax rate) of the gross amounts
    of the adjustments.

(b) This calculation is submitted in accordance with Regulation S-K item 601
    (b)(II) although it is contrary to paragraph 40 of APB Opinion No. 15
    because it produces an anti-dilutive result.
