this limitation on deductibility. Compensation qualifies as performance-based only if it is payable on account of the attainment of one or more performance goals and certain other requirements are satisfied. One of these other requirements is that
the plan under which the compensation is paid be approved by the stockholders and state a limit on the maximum number of option shares that can be granted to any individual in one year. The 1999 Plan is already in compliance with the other
requirements of Section 162(m), but did not previously place a limit on the number of options that could be granted to an individual in any one year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

disposition of shares will be taxable as long term capital gain. A &#147;disqualifying disposition&#148; means any disposition of shares acquired on the exercise of an incentive stock option where such disposition occurs within two years of the date
the option was granted or within one year of the date the shares were transferred to the option holder. The use of the shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option to pay the option exercise price under another incentive

the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the option exercise price. In the case of a disqualifying disposition, if the amount realized on disposition of the shares exceeds the fair market value of the shares on

integration with the Company, and to provide such persons an incentive for them to achieve long-range performance goals, and to enable them to participate in Company long-term growth. In general, under the 2000 Plan, only employees, consultants and
advisors who are not officers or directors of Company are eligible to participate in the 2000 Plan. The 2000 Plan is administered by the Board or, at its option, a committee consisting of at least three members of the Board appointed by the Board of
Directors. Participants in the 2000 Plan are eligible to receive non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and performance shares. A total of 1,000,000 shares of the Company&#146;s Common Stock were reserved for
issuance under the 2000 Plan. Of the shares reserved for issuance under the 2000 Plan, as of September 27, 2003, options to purchase 362,644 shares had been granted and were outstanding and 463,196 shares remained available for grant. Effective
December 17, 2003, the Board of Directors voted to decrease the number of shares available for issuance under this Plan from 1,000,000 shares to 800,000 shares. As of December 17, 2003, after taking into account the decreased number of shares
available for issuance, there were options to purchase 391,251 shares granted and outstanding and 221,424 shares that remained available for grant. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

Company and the following named executive officers: Messrs. Cumming and Muir and Dr. Stein. The agreements are intended to encourage the executives to continue to carry on their duties in the event of a change of control of the Company. The
agreements provide that 30 days after a change of control, the Company shall pay the executive a lump sum in cash equal to the sum of the executive&#146;s annual salary for the fiscal year immediately preceding the change of control plus the
executive&#146;s highest annual bonus, multiplied by three. In addition, the agreements provide that, upon a change of control, all unvested stock options or stock appreciation rights held by the executive shall become immediately exercisable for a
one year period following the executive&#146;s termination date. These severance agreements confer no benefits prior to a change of control. In the event that any payments received by the executive in connection with a change of control are subject
to the excise tax imposed upon certain change of control payments under federal tax laws, the agreements provide that the Company&#146;s auditing firm immediately preceding the change of control shall compute the excise tax imposed on the executive
and the Company shall pay that amount to the executive to provide the executive with a payment that is economically equivalent to the payment he would have received but for the imposition of the excise tax. Under the terms of these severance
agreements, if the executive remains employed through the one year anniversary of a change of control, then the executive will receive a special bonus (the &#147;special bonus&#148;) equal to the sum of the executive&#146;s annual salary and highest
annual bonus (as defined in the agreements). In addition, if termination of an executive&#146;s employment occurs within the three-year period following a change of control of the Company and such termination is by the Company (or its successor)
without cause or termination is by the executive for good reason, then the executive will be entitled to receive, among other things, in a lump sum in cash: (i) the executive&#146;s accrued salary; (ii) a pro rata portion of such executive&#146;s
highest annual bonus; (iii) to the extent not previously paid, the special bonus; (iv) continued welfare benefits for a period of one year; and (v) any compensation previously deferred by the executive and any accrued bonus amounts or vacation pay.

of the stockholders. Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. These options generally vest at the rate of 20% or 25% per year, with the first installment vesting either
at the end of one or two years, respectively, from the date of employment (for options granted upon initial employment) or the date of grant and are exercisable within ten years from the date of grant. The restricted stock grants are awards of
shares of Common Stock. These awards are generally subject to repurchase by the Company for a two year period from the date of grant. The size of individual option and stock grants are based upon the Committee&#146;s subjective review of the job
responsibility and individual contribution to the Company&#146;s success. Previous option and stock grants are considered when awards are determined. These equity awards are designed to provide incentives for the creation of long-term value for the

Chief Executive Officer and a director, in the purchase of a local primary residence in connection with his initial relocation to Danbury, Connecticut to take on the position of Senior Vice President and President of Lorad, the Company loaned
Mr.&nbsp;Cumming the principal amount of $300,000 pursuant to a promissory note. In August 2001, in connection with Mr. Cumming&#146;s move to the Company&#146;s Massachusetts headquarters in order to assume the position of Chief Executive Officer
and President, the Company loaned Mr. Cumming an additional principal amount of $200,000. This additional $200,000 loan has been consolidated with the original loan into one $500,000 promissory note on the same terms as the original loan. The
promissory note bears interest at the rate of 7.0% per year. In April 2002, the Board of Directors deferred the payment obligations under the note by one year, such that the note is now required to be repaid in quarterly installments of $41,666 plus
interest, commencing April 1, 2003 until paid in full no later than April 1, 2006. In the event that the Company undergoes a change of control, the balance of the note will be forgiven. In the event Mr. Cumming&#146;s employment with the Company is
terminated, either voluntarily or for cause, Mr. Cumming has agreed to repay the balance of the note. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

approved a special bonus program to provide Mr. Cumming with the funds necessary to pay the quarterly installments due under the loan. Under the special bonus program, for so long as Mr. Cumming remains an officer of the Company and there are
amounts remaining to be repaid under the loan, the Company will pay Mr. Cumming a special quarterly bonus equal to the amount due under the loan, including interest due, plus an additional payment equal to the taxes due as a result of the special
bonus and such additional payment, such that the net-after-tax special quarterly bonus to be received by Mr. Cumming will equal the principal and interest then due under the loan. During fiscal 2003, the Company paid Mr. Cumming $283,995 under this
special bonus program. As of the date of this proxy statement, an aggregate of $333,332 of principal on this loan remains outstanding. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
