WE ARE THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF SHARES HELD BY US FOR YOUR ACCOUNT. A TENDER
OF SUCH SHARES CAN BE MADE ONLY BY US AS THE HOLDER OF RECORD AND PURSUANT TO
YOUR INSTRUCTIONS. THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL IS FURNISHED TO YOU FOR YOUR
INFORMATION ONLY AND CANNOT BE USED TO TENDER SHARES HELD BY US FOR YOUR

We request instructions as to whether you wish to tender any or all the
Shares held by us for your account, pursuant to the terms and conditions set
forth in the Offer.
Your attention is invited to the following:
1. The tender price is $19.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash,
without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
the Offer.
2. The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously approved the
Offer and the Merger (as defined below) and determined that the Offer and
the Merger, taken together, are fair to, and in the best interests of, the
stockholders of the Company and recommends that the stockholders of the
Company accept the Offer and tender their Shares.
3. The Offer is being made for 8,704,238 Shares (approximately 51% of
the outstanding Shares on a fully diluted basis). Upon the terms and subject
to the conditions of the Offer, if more than 8,704,238 Shares are validly
tendered prior to the expiration of the Offer and not properly withdrawn in
accordance with Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase, such Shares will be
accepted for payment on a pro rata basis (with appropriate adjustments to
avoid the purchase of fractional Shares) according to the number of Shares
validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by the expiration of the Offer.

4. The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger
dated as of October 19, 1998 (the "Merger Agreement"), among Parent, the
Purchaser and the Company pursuant to which, following the consummation of
the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, the
Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company
surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger").
In the Merger, each outstanding Share (other than Shares owned by (i)
Parent, the Purchaser, the Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of
Parent or the Company or (ii) stockholders, if any, who are entitled to and
who properly exercise dissenters' rights under Delaware law) will be
converted into the right to receive $19.00 per Share, without interest, as
set forth in the Merger Agreement and described in the Offer to Purchase.
5. Parent and the Purchaser have entered into a Stock Tender Agreement
dated as of October 19, 1998 (the "Stock Tender Agreement") with certain
stockholders of the Company who beneficially own 2,968,350 Shares in the
aggregate (not including 324,000 Shares issuable under presently exercisable
options), representing approximately 17.4% of the outstanding Shares. Under
the Stock Tender Agreement, those stockholders have agreed to tender their
Shares pursuant to the Offer.
6. The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, there being
validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer
8,704,238 Shares.
7. The Offer, Proration Period and withdrawal rights will expire at
12:00 Midnight, New York City time, on Friday, November 20, 1998, unless the
Offer is extended by the Purchaser. In all cases, payment for Shares
accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made only after timely
receipt by the Depositary of certificates for such Shares (or timely
Book-Entry Confirmation of a transfer of such Shares as described in Section
2 of the Offer to Purchase), a properly completed and duly executed Letter
of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof) or an Agent's Message (as defined in
the Offer to Purchase) in connection with a book-entry delivery and any
other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal.
8. The Purchaser will pay any stock transfer taxes with respect to the
transfer and sale of Shares to it or its order pursuant to the Offer, except
as otherwise provided in Instruction 6 of the Letter of Transmittal.
