During the last 5 years, neither CRASTECOM nor any of CRASTECOM's managing partners has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). During the last 5 years, CRASTECOM has not been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction which resulted in CRASTECOM or any of its managing partners being subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

0 shares


                    The number of shares reported above includes 9,090,909 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer which are immediately convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder. In addition, if shares of Class B Common Stock are transferred to any persons other than a "Permitted Transferee" (as defined in the Issuer's Second Restated Articles of Incorporation), such shares are automatically converted on a share-for-share basis into shares of Class A Common Stock. Shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer have the same attributes as shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer except that each share of Class B Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to ten votes on all matters upon which shareholders have a right to vote and each share of Class A Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on such matters.

                    If all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer were converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, CRASTECOM B Limited Partnership may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 6.2% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock.

                    CRASTECOM has had no transactions in Class A or Class B Common Stock during the past 60 days. The managing partners are Thomas Crawford, Sr. and William P. Crawford.
