Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. Operating capital of NTOF was used to purchase the shares of Series D Preferred Stock and Warrants issued to NTOF pursuant to the transaction described in Item 4 below. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction On August 14, 2001, NTOF, the Issuer and certain other parties executed a Securities Exchange and Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") whereby NTOF would invest $5 million in cash in exchange for 50,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Issuer and warrants ("Warrants") to purchase an aggregate of 84,100,980 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 50% of the Issuer's fully diluted Common Stock. The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement were effective as of September 5, 2001, subject to certain post-closing conditions. Although the Warrants are immediately exercisable, the Company currently does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to issue upon exercise of the Warrants. Therefore, before the Warrants may be exercised by NTOF, shareholder approval must be obtained to, among other things, approve an amendment to the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and decrease the stated par value of the Common Stock. A copy of the Purchase Agreement and Post-Closing Agreement related thereto are attached hereto as Exhibits B and F, respectively. A copy of the Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Certificate of Designations for the Series D Preferred Stock of the Issuer provides, among other things, for special voting rights upon failure to receive shareholder approval in connection with the matters contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. These voting rights provide that upon failure to receive the requisite shareholder approval by December 31, 2001, then, from and after January 1, 2002, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled (i) except as otherwise provided by applicable law, to vote as a separate class on all matters on which any shareholder of the Issuer are entitled to vote or to consent: and (ii) to vote together with the holders of Common Stock on all matters on which any holder of Common Stock is entitled to vote or to consent, with each share of Series D Preferred Stock being entitled to 250 votes per share. A copy of the Certificate of Designation for the Series D Preferred Stock is attached hereto as Exhibit E. NTOF, the Issuer and certain other parties also executed a Shareholders Agreement ("Shareholders Agreement") on August 14, 2001 which, among other things, provides that for so long as NTOF owns any capital stock of the Issuer, NTOF shall have the right to designate three of the five directors of the Issuer. In addition, under certain circumstances, NTOF may have the right to designate one additional director to the Board. The Shareholders Agreement also contains a voting agreement whereby NTOF and certain other shareholders have agreed to vote all shares owned or later acquired by such shareholders so that at all times the persons designated to serve as members of the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement will be elected and remain members of the Board of Directors. A copy of the Shareholders Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C. On September 4, 2001, as a material inducement to consummating the transactions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, NTOF and Larry Martin, a shareholder of the Issuer ("Martin"), executed a Voting Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy ("Martin Voting Agreement") whereby Martin has agreed (i) not to transfer or otherwise dispose of the 3,166,694 shares of Common Stock presently owned by him, as well as any shares of Common Stock purchased by him after the date of execution of the Martin Voting Agreement, and (ii) to vote such shares of Common Stock so as to facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the approval of the amendment to the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and decreasing the stated par value of the Common Stock. Martin has granted an irrevocable proxy to Hollingsworth and Sweetser to vote Martin's shares of Common Stock in connection with and in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Martin Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. On September 10, 2001, as a material inducement to consummating the transactions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, NTOF and Gruber & McBaine Capital Management, a beneficial owner of the Issuer's Common Stock ("Gruber & McBaine"), executed a Voting Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy ("Gruber & McBaine Voting Agreement") whereby Gruber & McBaine has agreed (i) not to transfer or otherwise dispose of the 767,400 shares of Common Stock over which it has disposition power, as well as any shares of Common Stock that it purchases after the date of execution of the Gruber & McBaine Voting Agreement, and (ii) to vote such shares of Common Stock so as to facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the approval of the amendment to the Issuer's Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and decreasing the stated par value of the Common Stock. Gruber & McBaine has granted an irrevocable proxy to Hollingsworth and Sweetser to vote its shares of Common Stock in connection with and in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

Interest in Securities of Issuer (a) The Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of 3,934,094 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.
