February 10, 2003, the Company entered into a 90-day engagement letter with Mr. James Irish to serve as Chief Executive Officer. Upon completion of the 90-day term the Company and Mr. Irish will enter into a formal three-year employment contract.
The three-year employment contract will expire on May 11, 2006. The engagement letter provides for a base salary of $12,500 per month, subject to review by the Board of Directors from time to time in its discretion. The engagement letter also
provides that Mr. Irish will participate in bonus, benefit and other incentives at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Mr. Irish was granted 100,000 options under the Company&#146;s 2002 Stock Option Plan. These options vest at a rate of 25
percent at date of grant and 25 percent annually thereafter. The Compensation Committee will consider performance related criteria in connection with the three-year employment agreement to be entered into in May 2003. </FONT></P><P

of an incentive stock option, the amount of the deduction that the Company would otherwise be entitled may be limited to the extent the ordinary income recognized by the Covered Employee upon such exercise or disqualifying disposition, together with
all other compensation in a given taxable year, exceeds $1 million. The Compensation Committee intends to attempt to qualify as performance-based compensation future stock option grants to persons who are or may become Covered Employees. However,
the Committee may in its discretion award stock options to existing or potential future Covered Employees which do not qualify as performance-based compensation, and the exercise or subsequent disposition of stock acquired from such options may
