No. I mean, I was -- from the

disappointed. But by the time the deal was

2 other value plays has been an absolutely

3 horrble area to invest in in the past few
4 years, whether you are talking about nursing

5 homes, you know, home care, you name it,

6 hospitals. So it's been a horrible IPO market
7 for heaIthcare, and a bad IPO market in general

8 and bad for healthcare.
9 Q. Did you consider, in the time

10 period beginning after Crowley came aboard in

17 A. Prior to Dan coming on board, Don

A. In July of 1999, we had altered it. Q~ Tell me about the alteration.

that I would have a three-year rolling contract,

that I would receive $80,000 a month plus expenses,

16

that I would be eligible to purchase some of his
position in companies in which we worked together, that I could bring companies tö him to look at,

17 18 19

that he would bring all of his companies that he

worked on to me to look at and that those companies
in which I worked, in which I improved the

20 21

23

companies, that I could participate in the upside

generally at 20 percent of his net gain after a

preferred return and his own expenses were taken
out and - - I mean, that's the general idea of what

we struck back in July of ' 99.

Q.

Mr. Crowley, what is your understanding

A.
They own 70 percent of the debt and

A.

30 percent was owned by Gordon Brothers,

17 which is now Stepping Stone Capital. Both sides

Q.

Is Stepping Stone Capital just a new

20 name for Gordon Brothers or is it new ownership
