<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted a charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which was included in the Company's Proxy Statement prepared in
connection with the 2001 annual shareholders' meeting. The charter charges the Committee with the responsibility for, among other things, reviewing the Company's audited financial statements and the
financial reporting process. In carrying out that responsibility, the committee has reviewed and discussed the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards 61, as amended, with
the independent auditors. In addition, the Committee has reviewed the written disclosures required by Independence Standards Board Standard No.&nbsp;1, which were received from the Company's
independent accountants, and has discussed the independent accounts' independence with them. Based on these reviews and discussions, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the
Company's audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the Company's fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001. </FONT></P>

<BR></FONT><FONT SIZE=2><B>REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION    <BR>  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Compensation Committee is composed of the independent outside directors whose names appear following this report. The Committee considers a variety of issues
in establishing compensation policies for executive officers, with the primary basis for compensation being the financial performance of the Company. Compensation for executive officers includes three
elements: base salaries, bonuses, and options to acquire Common Stock. Salaries are based on factors such as the individual's level of responsibility and the amount of salary paid to executives with
similar responsibilities in comparable companies. Stock options are designed to increase the incentive for an executive's interest in the Company's long-term success as measured by the
market value of its stock. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
chief executive officer's compensation for 2001 was based on the policies described above, with particular emphasis upon the Company's excellent financial performance. Further, it
was determined that the compensation of the chief executive officer was comparable to compensation of chief executive officers of comparable companies. The compensation of the other executive officers
was set at the level necessary to attract and retain executives performing the functions being performed by such executives. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Base
salaries for executive officers are determined by evaluating the responsibilities of the position held and the experience and performance of the individual. Reference is also made
to the competitive marketplace for executive talent. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Committee decided not to grant any stock options to its executive officers in 2001. </FONT></P>
