        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%.

                                  Legal Issues

   
- -    The Delaware Court must consider all relevant factors to determine 
     fair value.
    

   
- -    Delaware law compels inclusion of control premium when valuing controlled
     subsidiaries, [Rapid-American Corporation vs. Harris 
     (Supreme Court of Delaware 1992)].

Project Thoroughbred

                              Valuation Methodoloy

         -    Fair Value Concept:

              -  "Going concern"

              -  Common Equity - Control Basis - No Discounts

              -  Price at which Company would change hands between willing
                 buyer/willing seller, neither under any compulsion to 
                 buy/sell, both having knowledge of relevant facts.


              -  Three Primary Quantitative Valuation Methodologies:

              -  Comparable publicly traded company approach

              -  Comparable merger and acquisition transaction approach

              -  Discounted cash flow approach

              -  Consideration of Qualitative Aspects
