          Group, petitioner was listed as a member of the support team                
          responsible for organizing and obtaining financing for Kirshner             
          Content.                                                                    
               On or about February 22, 1996, State Street Capital Markets            
          Corp. offered a confidential private placement memorandum for the           
          purpose of raising capital for Kirshner Content.  Investors would           
          invest a maximum of $1.5 million for 30 units, which would be               
          convertible into a promissory note, common stock, and common                
          stock purchase warrants in Kirshner Content.  Petitioner was                
          listed as the executive vice president, chief financial officer,            
          treasurer, and director of Kirshner Content.                                
               On or about April 17, 1996, in connection with an attempt to           
          obtain interim financing, Kirshner Content issued a promissory              
          note in the amount of $279,440 to C&C Partners, LLC, a New York             
          limited liability company,8 which petitioner and Thurmond                   
          personally guaranteed.  Petitioner and Thurmond’s guaranties were           
          subject to four separate conditions.  Another guaranty was made             
          on April 24, 1996, by Martin Licht, secretary and counsel for               
          Kirshner Content.9  Under the terms of the promissory note, it              



               8 The record sometimes refers to “C&C Investments” in                  
          connection with the promissory note.  For this purpose, C&C                 
          Investments and C&C Partners, LLC, are treated as one and the               
          same.                                                                       
               9 Although not specified in the record, Licht apparently was           
          a business associate of Kirshner.
