remuneration, recognize individual initiatives and achievements, link executive compensation to corporate performance and align the interests of our executives with the interests of our stockholders. Our executive compensation program is comprised
of salary, annual cash incentives and long-term, stock-based incentives. The principal method for long-term incentive compensation is option grants under our 2002 Long Term Incentive and Stock Award Plan. These grants are designed to promote the
convergence of long-term interests between our key employees and our stockholders, since the value of options granted will increase or decrease with the value of our common stock. Because performance most significantly influences an individual
executive&#146;s compensation level, compensation levels in any particular year may be above or below those of our competitors, depending upon company and individual performance. The following is a discussion of each of the elements of the executive
compensation program along with a description of the decisions and actions taken by the Compensation Committee with regard to fiscal 2005 compensation: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

and relationships to other corporate positions. Existing base salaries and any annual merit-based increases for the named executives were established based on the foregoing factors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

individual initiatives which contributed to the attainment of targeted goals relating to product sales, product margins, return on capital employed, earnings per share and stockholder return. If the Compensation Committee determines that corporate
results are such that a bonus program is warranted, then each executive&#146;s accomplishments are assessed as to their impact on corporate results. The chief executive officer consults with Compensation Committee members to review corporate
results, the individual executive&#146;s contributions and his recommendations as to annual incentive payments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

(1)&nbsp;attracting and retaining executives and other key employees of outstanding ability; (2)&nbsp;strengthening our capability to develop, maintain and direct a competent management team; (3)&nbsp;motivating executives and other key employees,
by means of performance-related incentives, to achieve longer-range performance goals; (4)&nbsp;providing incentive compensation opportunities which are competitive with those of other comparably situated corporations; and (5)&nbsp;enabling such
employees to participate in our long-term growth and financial success. During our fiscal year ended June&nbsp;30, 2005, stock option grants were made broadly within the Company pursuant to the 2002 Plan. In determining award levels, consideration
was given to individual performance, potential for future responsibility and promotion and competitive total compensation targets for the individual&#146;s position and level of contribution. </FONT></P> <P
