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.
