1 EXHIBIT 99(b)(2) THE FOLLOWING REPORT WAS PRESENTED TO THE BOARDS ON AUGUST 12, 1997. DURING THE COURSE OF THIS PRESENTATION, PIPER JAFFRAY ORALLY CORRECTED THE FOLLOWING ERRORS: (a) On page 4-3 of the report in the "Summation of the Flow of Values in the Company Sale Scenario", the "Total" column should have included as the sum of the "Taxes and Expenses" line item, $31.8 million. (b) An error in the calculation of the weighted average cost of capital presented in the appendix incorrectly resulted in a weighted average cost of capital of 13.0% when the correct percentage was actually 16.1%. This error was caused by using a 0.6 beta factor in the cost of equity calculation instead of the correct beta factor of 1.31. (c) An incorrect return on equity of 17% was used in the calculation of the present value of the dividend stream in the long-term dividend model. The correct return on equity was 19%. This error was caused by using the incorrect beta factor discussed in (b). (d) The premium calculated for the per share value for the BULB Common Stock in the deemed sale model was incorrectly reported as 121% due to a clerical error instead of the correct premium of 58%. 2 PROJECT THOROUGHBRED Piper Jaffray Inc.
