charter that is not available on the Company&#146;s website, but that was attached as an appendix to the Company&#146;s proxy statement for the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr.&nbsp;Guerin is an
&#147;audit committee financial expert,&#148; as that term is used in Item&nbsp;407 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act. The Board of Directors has also determined that Mr.&nbsp;Guerin is independent even though he falls outside the
&#147;safe harbor&#148; definition set forth in Rule 10A-3(e)(1)(ii) under the Exchange Act because he owns in excess of 10% of the Company&#146;s common stock. Among other things, the Board considered Mr.&nbsp;Guerin&#146;s history of service and
the percentage of common stock held by others, and it determined that he is not an &#147;affiliated person&#148; of the Company who would be ineligible to serve on the audit committee. The Board of Directors believes that each of Messrs. Guerin,
Good and Kaufman is independent under NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200, meets the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and satisfies the other audit committee membership requirements specified in NASDAQ Marketplace

recommend director candidates, but Messrs. Guerin, Good and Kaufman will certainly consider candidates recommended by shareholders. A shareholder wishing to submit such a recommendation should send a letter to the Secretary of the Company at 915
East First Street, Los Angeles, California 90012. The mailing envelope must contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a &#147;Director Nominee Recommendation.&#148; The letter must identify the author as a shareholder and
provide a brief summary of the candidate&#146;s qualifications, as well as contact information for both the candidate and the shareholder. At a minimum, candidates for election to the Board must meet the independence requirements of NASDAQ
Marketplace Rule 4200 and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Candidates should also have relevant business and financial experience, and they must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements. Candidates recommended by
shareholders will be evaluated in the same manner as candidates recommended by anyone else, although Messrs. Guerin, Good and Kaufman may prefer candidates who are personally known to the existing directors and whose reputations are highly regarded.

fiscal 2009 replaced an earlier awarded certificate which terminated with a final payment in fiscal 2008.) Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s 2009 certificate resulted in a payment of $179,000 for fiscal 2009. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P

officer, consists of three elements: base salary, year-end bonus and participation in the Management Incentive Plan. Salary and bonus payments are primarily designed to reward current and past performance, while awards granted pursuant to the
Management Incentive Plan are aimed at providing incentives for long-term future profitability of the Company. In determining the amount and form of compensation to be paid or awarded in 2009, the compensation committee considered the Company&#146;s
overall performance over a period of years, rather than constructing a guideline or formula based on any particular performance measured in a single year. The compensation committee also recognized that Mr.&nbsp;Salzman serves in several executive
capacities. Mr.&nbsp;Salzman currently serves as the Company&#146;s chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, chief accounting officer, treasurer and assistant secretary. </FONT></P> <P

and by Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s personal performance. While the compensation committee did not undertake a comparison of Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s compensation to amounts paid by other companies to
their chief executive officers, the committee members did utilize in their determination of Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s compensation their collective current and past experience as directors and executive officers of numerous companies, and their
subjective judgments about the performance of the Company and Mr.&nbsp;Salzman in light of the highly competitive market conditions in the publishing and case management software businesses. </FONT></P> <P

compensation plans, disability insurance programs or traditional perquisites (other than health insurance and a life insurance policy, which are offered to all full-time employees). It instead maintains the Management Incentive Plan, which is
designed to link compensation to the performance of the Company by granting to Mr.&nbsp;Salzman and other participating employees a percentage of income before taxes, workers&#146; compensation expenses and supplemental compensation expenses in the
current year and each of the next nine years subsequent to the grant, provided they remain employed by the Company or are retired (and not competing with any of the Company&#146;s businesses) and have worked for the Company until age 65. If a
participant dies while any of his or her certificates remain outstanding, future payments under those certificates will be made to the deceased participant&#146;s beneficiaries. The Management Incentive Plan has three different kinds of certificates
entitling participants to a share of the Company&#146;s earnings related to their core responsibilities. Employees who work in the Company&#146;s traditional publishing business are eligible to receive &#147;Daily Journal Non-Consolidated
Certificates,&#148; while those working for Sustain are eligible to receive &#147;Sustain Certificates.&#148; Mr.&nbsp;Salzman and other employees with responsibilities for the entire business are eligible to receive &#147;Daily Journal Consolidated
Certificates.&#148; The compensation committee recognizes that a significant portion of the compensation paid pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan relates to &#147;certificates&#148; earned under the Plan in prior years, with future payments
entirely dependent on earnings. Non-negotiable certificates specifying the designated share of earnings are given to employees as evidence of their participation in the Management Incentive Plan. Certificates are awarded on the basis of employee
performance. The aggregate supplemental compensation awarded under the Management Incentive Plan to all participants in fiscal 2009 was $1,942,225. That compares to an aggregate of $1,800,900 awarded under the plan in fiscal 2008. </FONT></P> <P

preferable to a conventional stock option plan. As a mechanism for compensation, a stock option plan is capricious, as employees awarded options in a particular year would ultimately receive too much or too little compensation for reasons unrelated
to employee performance. Such variations could cause undesirable effects, as employees receive different results for options awarded in different years. In addition, a conventional stock option plan would fail to properly weigh the disadvantage to
shareholders through dilution. The Management Incentive Plan was implemented in combination with repurchases of the Company&#146;s stock, and therefore the Company&#146;s per share earnings have not been diluted by grants under the Management
Incentive Plan. At December&nbsp;11, 2009, 67,500 units for Daily Journal Non-Consolidated Certificates, 53,500 units for Sustain Certificates and 148,000 units for Daily Journal Consolidated Certificates were outstanding under the Management
Incentive Plan, while 424,307 shares of the Company&#146;s common stock (including Treasury Shares) have been repurchased since the commencement of the Management Incentive Plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Company. Certificates awarded to Mr.&nbsp;Salzman in earlier years of the Management Incentive Plan began to expire after fiscal 1997, and those certificates expiring in fiscal 2009 were for
1.11% of earnings. Accordingly, the award in fiscal 2009 essentially replaced an identical expiring award and maintained Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s interest in the earnings of the Company at 8.2% ($1,324,600 in fiscal 2009), where it has been since
fiscal 1997. The compensation committee has awarded Mr.&nbsp;Salzman a certificate for fiscal 2010 equal to approximately 1.39% of the Company&#146;s earnings in 2010 and in each of the next nine years (again, replacing an identical expiring award),
subject to the discretion of the committee to reduce that percentage prior to the payout for 2010. The compensation committee will continue to examine the appropriate amount of future grants to Mr.&nbsp;Salzman in light of the Company&#146;s
financial performance and the expiration, or expected expiration, of a substantial portion of the certificates Mr.&nbsp;Salzman currently holds. Absent substantial changes in Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s performance or the performance of the Company, the
compensation committee&#146;s working assumption is that it will make future grants that maintain Mr.&nbsp;Salzman&#146;s interest in the earnings of the Company at 8.2%. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;
