<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This report is provided
by the Committee to assist stockholders in understanding the Committee&#146;s
philosophy in establishing the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and
all other Executive Officers of the Company for the year ended June&nbsp;30,
2005.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p align="left" style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Compensation
Philosophy</font></i>.&#160;
Historically, executive compensation has been designed to link rewards
with business results and stockholder returns consistent with (a)&nbsp;the
executive&#146;s level of responsibility, (b)&nbsp;compensation paid to the
executive in the prior year, (c)&nbsp;the Company&#146;s performance for the year
and the prior year, (d)&nbsp;the executive&#146;s individual performance for the
year and the prior year, (e)&nbsp;salary levels for executives in comparable
positions in comparable enterprises, (f)&nbsp;inflation, and (g)&nbsp;a variety
of other factors.&#160; The components of
Executive Compensation which reflect this philosophy may consist of (i)&nbsp;annual
base salary, (ii)&nbsp;annual cash bonuses, (iii)&nbsp;annual stock bonuses, (iv)&nbsp;stock
options or other stock incentives, and (v)&nbsp;equity-based retirement
compensation, which is reflected in the Company&#146;s Employee Stock Ownership Plan
and 401(k) Plan.&#160; In formulating its
compensation recommendations, the Committee considered information and
recommendations provided by management and by Arthur J. Gallagher&nbsp;&amp;
Company, a nationally known and recognized firm of management consultants.</p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p align="left" style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Base
Salary</font></i>.&#160; The past
practice of the Committee has been to establish base salaries of all executives
prior to the beginning of the fiscal year based on the various factors
described in the preceding paragraph.&#160; In
fiscal 2005, the Committee increased base salaries of the named executive
officers to the levels indicated in the Summary Compensation Table to keep
salary levels reasonably consistent with inflation and salary levels for
executives in comparable positions in comparable enterprises.&#160; These increases were based in large part on
studies conducted by Arthur J. Gallagher&nbsp;&amp; Company.</p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

Cash Bonuses</font></i>.&#160; For
fiscal 2005, the Committee determined that each officer would have an
opportunity to receive a cash bonus equal to a percentage of base salary
ranging from a minimum of 30% at target level performance to 80% at maximum
level performance (50% to 100% in the case of the Chief Executive Officer),
depending upon position and the extent to which certain Company performance
measures were met.&#160; The Company&#146;s
performance measures were not met and no bonuses were paid under this program
with respect to fiscal 2005.</p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Committee has
authorized a $50,000 bonus pool that may be paid, based upon the recommendation
of the Chief Executive Officer, to reward superior performance by any employee
of the Company other than the CEO.&#160; This
bonus pool was utilized in fiscal 2005.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p align="left" style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><i><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">Stock
Incentives</font></i>.&#160; The
Committee recognizes the need to provide medium term incentives for the
retention and motivation of Senior Executives, consistent with the desire to
conserve cash.&#160; From 1996 through fiscal
2003, the Committee granted stock options to Senior Executives on an annual
basis.&#160; In fiscal 2004, after
consultation with Pearl Meyer&nbsp;&amp; Partners, a compensation consultant,
the Committee determined to award performance accelerated restricted shares
instead of stock options with a view to, among other matters, promoting
increased financial performance over the long-term, increasing management
ownership of stock so as to better motivate performance and matching of
management and stockholder interests.&#160;
Restricted shares were awarded in fiscal 2004 and 2005 based on salary
levels of recipients and generally will vest after seven years, subject to
accelerated vesting in three years if the Company meets a specified earnings
per share performance target set by the Committee. &#160;All options and restricted share awards were
granted under either the Stock Incentive Plan of 1996 or the Stock Incentive
Plan of 2004, both of which were approved by stockholders.</p>

Based Retirement Compensation</font></i>.&#160; The final component of executive compensation
consists of equity based retirement compensation through participation in the
Company&#146;s employee stock ownership plans for salaried and certain hourly
employees (&#147;Salaried ESOP&#148;) and 401(k) Plan.&#160;
The amount of the Company&#146;s contributions to the Salaried ESOP and the
401(k) Plan is determined by the Board each year based upon the recommendation
of the Committee.&#160; The Committee bases
its recommendation primarily upon Company performance for the year.</p>

amounts contributed by the Company are invested in shares of the Company&#146;s

compensation (as defined).&#160; Generally,

permanent disability or retirement.&#160; In

maintained a 401(k) Plan for the benefit of employees for several years but
prior to fiscal 2001 had not made a contribution to it.&#160; During fiscal 2001, the Board determined to
reduce the Company&#146;s contribution to the Salaried ESOP and to contribute an
amount equal to the reduction to the 401(k) Plan.&#160; Five years service is required for full vesting
in the amount of the Company contribution.&#160;
In fiscal 2005, the Company contributed an amount equal to 4-1/2% of
eligible compensation to the 401(k) Plan.</font></p>
