(i)     from time to time, the purchase of Issuer common stock by various

ITEM 4.    PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Subject to and depending upon the availability of prices deemed favorable by any
Reporting Person, such Reporting Person may choose to purchase additional shares
of common stock from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated
transactions with third parties, by exercising options or warrants, or
otherwise. In addition, depending upon prevailing conditions,


                                       10




such Reporting Person may determine to dispose of shares of common stock held by
them in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions with third
parties, or otherwise.

On December 6, 2002, the Issuer issued a press release stating that SRA had
indicated that it intends to exercise its warrant with respect to 735,000 shares
of Issuer common stock covered by such warrant in the near future but not to
sell such Issuer common stock upon exercise. A copy of the Company's Press
Release is attached as EXHIBIT 99.1 to this Amendment.

As Chairman, CEO, and a director of the Issuer, Mr. Atkins considers plans and
proposals submitted by management with respect to business combinations aimed at
improving the operating efficiencies of the Issuer, acquiring complementary
properties, and/or entering new market regions. These business combinations may
include mergers and acquisitions, asset purchases and sales, as well as
strategic ventures and marketing alliances. Depending on the facts and
circumstances, Mr. Hewitt may also consider such plans or proposals in his
capacity as Vice President of the Issuer. As a director, Mr. Atkins also may,
depending on the facts and circumstances, consider any plans and proposals with
respect to other transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of
Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

No Reporting Person has any independent present plans or proposals which relate
to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a)
through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

ITEM 5.    INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

Items 3 and 4 are incorporated herein by reference.

(a)     Mr. Atkins beneficially owns and has the sole power to vote and dispose
        of (A) 28,325 shares of Issuer common stock held by him, (B) 232 shares
        of Issuer common stock held by his minor children, and (C) options to
        acquire an additional 12,000 shares of Issuer common stock (of which
        options with respect to all 12,000 shares of Issuer common stock are
        reportable at this time).

(b)     Mr. Hewitt beneficially owns and has the sole power to vote and dispose
        of 87,401 shares of Issuer common stock and warrants to acquire an
        additional 545 shares of Issuer common stock.

(c)     Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt are each one of five directors of RRTC which
        beneficially owns 69,803 shares of Issuer common stock, as trustee of
        various Hewitt family trusts. RRTC is an Illinois chartered trust
        company with a principal business address at 4709 44th Street,
        Suite 5, Rock Island, IL 61201. RRTC has not, during the last five
        years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding nor been party to a
        civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent
        jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is 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.
        Neither Mr. Atkins nor Mr. Hewitt vote on any matters before the RRTC
        board of directors regarding the acquisition, voting, or disposition
        of such stock. Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt disclaim beneficial ownership
        in such shares.


                                       11





(d)     Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt are each one of four directors of and a
        shareholder in SRC. SRC owns 75,828 shares of Issuer common stock.

(e)     Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt are each one of four directors of and a
        shareholder in SRC, that is the former general partner of SRP. Upon
        SRP's dissolution on December 31, 2002, SRP distributed its 259,685
        shares of Issuer common stock to its creditor (SI), its limited
        partners (including among others, Mr. Hewitt; various trusts for which
        RRTC is trustee; and SRC), and its general partner (SRC). Upon such
        distribution, SRP ceased to be the beneficial owner of any Issuer
        common stock.

(f)     Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt are each co-manager of SD, the manager of SI.
        SI owns 1,286,018 shares of Issuer common stock.

(g)     Mr. Atkins is a co-manager of SRA. SRA owns 89,400 shares of Issuer
        common stock, and warrants that are presently exercisable to purchase
        an additional 735,000 shares of Issuer common stock.

(h)     Mr. Atkins, therefore, has sole voting power and sole investment power
        over 40,557 shares of common stock and shared voting power and shared
        investment power over 2,256,049 shares of common stock, representing
        in the aggregate 21.0% of the sum of, pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i),
        (A) 10,980,834 outstanding shares of the Issuer, and (B) options to
        acquire 12,000 shares of Issuer common stock.

(i)     Mr. Hewitt, therefore, has sole voting power and sole investment power
        over 87,946 shares of common stock and shared voting power and shared
        investment power over 1,431,649 shares of common stock, representing
        in the aggregate 13.8% of the sum of, pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i),
        (A) 10,980,834 outstanding shares of the Issuer, and (B) warrants to
        acquire 545 shares of Issuer common stock.

(j)     SI, therefore, has sole voting power and sole investment power over
        1,286,018 shares of common stock, representing 11.7% of 10,980,834
        outstanding shares of the Issuer.

(k)     SD, therefore, has sole voting power and sole investment power over
        1,286,018 shares of common stock, representing 11.7% of 10,980,834
        outstanding shares of the Issuer.

(l)     SRC, therefore, has sole voting power and investment power over 75,828
        shares of common stock, representing approximately 0.0% of 10,980,834
        outstanding shares of the Issuer.

(m)     SRA, therefore, has sole voting and investment power over 824,400
        shares of common stock, representing 7.0% of the sum of, pursuant to
        Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i), (A) 10,980,834 outstanding shares of the Issuer and
        (B) warrants to acquire 735,000 shares of Issuer common stock.

ITEM 6.    CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
           RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

(a)     Mr. Atkins and Mr. Hewitt are business associates. Because their
        acquisition, voting, and disposition activities could cause them to be
        deemed to be a "group" (as defined in Section 13 of the Securities
        Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Mr. Atkins and


                                       12





        Mr. Hewitt have entered into an agreement evidencing that, unless and
        until either person decides otherwise, each will conduct his
        activities with respect to the Issuer's securities as if the two of
        them are a "group" (as defined in Section 13 of the Securities
        Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).

(b)     On June 25, 2001, SI entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with
        the Issuer in connection with the receipt of Issuer stock in exchange
        for SI's interest in an office building.

(c)     Other than these agreements, there are no contracts, arrangements,
        understandings or relationships between the filing persons and any
        other party with respect to any of the Issuer common stock owned by
        Mr. Atkins, Mr. Hewitt, RRTC, SI, SD, SRC, SRP, SRA, or any other
        party.
