Such discussions have not yet been resolved, and the Company has therefore determined that it should delay the filing of its Form 10-Q for such fiscal quarter so that such filing can reflect the results of such discussions.

Excluding the effect of the adoption of SFAS 143, the Company would have reported a net loss in the first quarter of 2003 of $(7.6) million.
