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

    (1)  Each of the 1,300 Series B convertible preferred shares is convertible
         into five shares of common stock. On the mandatory conversion date of
         April 1, 1996, each of the Company's 6,500,000 depositary shares, each
         representing 1/5 of a Series B convertible preferred share was
         converted into one share of the Company's common stock.

    (2)  If, for purposes of calculating primary and fully diluted earnings per
         share, the Series B convertible preferred shares were excluded from the
         weighted average shares outstanding and the related dividends deducted
         from net income, the computations would have resulted in both primary
         and fully diluted earnings per share of $.05 for the three months ended
         February 29, 1996 and loss per share of $.06 for the three months ended
         February 28, 1995.

    (3)  Fully diluted earnings per share is not disclosed in the Company's
         consolidated financial statements since the maximum dilutive effect is
         not material.
