Explanation of Responses:

* On June 9, 2002, the Meyers Family Limited Partnership ("MFLP") acquired 620,806 shares of Class A common stock for $7.85 per share, and 873,709 shares of Class B common stock for $6.30 per share. Prior to the transaction, the MFLP owned 190,035 shares of Class B common stock. The Reporting Person owns 22.55% of the MFLP, and his spouse owns 7.12% of the MFLP, and the beneficial interest of the Reporting Person is calculated as the Reporting Person's and his spouses pro rata interest in the securities owned by the MFLP based on their percentage ownership therein. The Reporting Person denies beneficial ownership of any securities owned by the MFLP except to the extent of this percentage beneficial interest therein.

** The Reporting Person owns a remainder interest in 154,801 shares of Class A common stock, and 205,331.67 shares of Class B common stock. The life estate is determined by the life of the Reporting Person's mother. The Reporting Person's mother owns the life estate with respect to 36,000 shares of Class A common stock, and the life estate interest in the balance of the Class A and Class B common shares was transferred to the MFLP in the June 9, 2002 conveyance described above.

*** The Reporting Person's share ownership differs from prior reports as result of the inclusion of additional shares of Class B common stock that had been distributed in stock dividends on the Class A and B shares, but which were only recently issued in certificate form.

**** The Reporting Person may have the right to additional shares of Class A or Class B common stock as the result of the distribution of shares that may still be titled in his deceased father's name. An additional or amended Form 4 or 5 will be filed which the amount of such shares is known to report any additional ownership interest acquired as result of the administration of the estate.

If the Form is filed by more than one Reporting Person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
