Note 1:  This calculation is submitted in accordance with the Securities
         Exchange Act of 1934 although not required by footnote 2 to paragraph
         14 of APB Opinion No. 15 because the calculation of primary and
         fully diluted net income (loss) per common and common equivalent share
         results in a dilution of less than 3% or is anti-dilutive.
