Committee does not use a quantitative method or mathematical formula to set the elements of compensation for the executive officers. The Compensation and Benefits Committee uses discretion and considers all elements of an executive&#146;s
compensation package when setting each portion of compensation. The principal factors that the Compensation and Benefits Committee considered with respect to each executive officer&#146;s compensation package for 2004 are summarized below. The

individual performance, contribution to the Company&#146;s performance, level of responsibility, duties and functions, salary levels in effect for comparable positions within and without the Company&#146;s industry, and internal base salary
comparability considerations. These base salaries are reviewed periodically and may be adjusted in the discretion of the Compensation and Benefits Committee, based upon the factors discussed in the previous sentence, as well as upon individual
performance during the previous fiscal year, changes in the duties, responsibilities and functions of the executive officer, general changes in the compensation peer group in which the Company competes for executive talent, and the Company&#146;s
financial performance generally. The relative weight given to each of these factors differs from individual to individual, as the Compensation and Benefits Committee deems appropriate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

acquire shares of Common Stock at a fixed price per share (typically, and never less than, the closing stock price of the Common Stock on the date of grant) for a fixed period (usually ten years). Each option generally becomes exercisable after
three years, contingent upon the executive officer&#146;s continued employment with the Company. Accordingly, the stock option grant will provide a return to the executive officer only if the executive officer remains employed by the Company during
the vesting period, and then only if the market price of the underlying Common Stock appreciates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The number of shares subject to each stock option grant is subjectively determined by the Compensation and Benefits Committee or the Board of Directors
primarily related to the executive officer&#146;s anticipated contributions to the Company&#146;s future success, the size of comparable awards made to individuals in similar positions within the industry, the individual&#146;s potential for
increased responsibility and promotion over the option term and the individual&#146;s personal performance in recent periods. The Compensation and Benefits Committee also considers the number of unvested stock options held by the executive officer
in order to maintain an appropriate level of equity incentive for that individual. However, the Compensation and Benefits Committee does not adhere to any specific guidelines as to the relative stock option holdings of the Company&#146;s executive
officers. The Company granted options to purchase a total of 12,000 shares of Common Stock to four executive officers during 2004. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
