          Court of California on March 28, 2001.  The petition was denied             
          on May 16, 2001.                                                            
               The arbitrator issued a final award in the arbitration                 
          proceedings on August 29, 2001.  He found that:  (1) O’Dowd’s               
          purchase of petitioner’s Green Hills stock for $41,585,388                  
          complied with the partial final award and was effective on                  
          October 13, 2000; (2) the payment belongs to petitioner without             
          restriction; (3) petitioner’s acceptance of the payment on                  
          October 13, 2000, terminated his interest in Green Hills; (4)               
          petitioner is entitled to an additional $52,783;3 (5) O’Dowd is             
          entitled to $604,105.30 for attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses;           
          and (6) the net amount petitioner owes O’Dowd is $551,322.30.               
               On December 11, 2001, petitioner petitioned the Superior               
          Court to vacate the arbitration award.  On December 21, 2001, the           
          Superior Court entered a judgment confirming and substantially              
          repeating the findings in the arbitrator’s final award.                     
               Petitioner appealed the Superior Court’s decision.  On July            
          31, 2003, the Court of Appeal filed its opinion rejecting                   
          petitioner’s appeal and affirming the decision of the Superior              
          Court.  Petitioner filed a motion for rehearing on August 15,               
          2003.  Petitioner’s motion was denied on August 20, 2003.                   
          Petitioner filed a petition for review in the Supreme Court of              

               3  This adjustment was made to correct an error in the                 
          calculation of the offsets to the purchase price.
