  The Company owns life insurance on the life of Leonard A. Rosenbaum in the
  amount of $2,000,000.  The Company is the sole beneficiary of said policy.

  In June 1989, the shareholders approved a non-qualified stock option plan
  covering key employees, officers and directors.  Options are awarded by the
  Board of Directors or by a committee appointed by the Board.

  Under the plan an aggregate of 700,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par
  value of the Company are reserved for issuance or transfer upon the exercise
  of options which are granted.  Unless otherwise provided in the Option
  Agreement, an option granted under the plan shall become exercisable in 25%
  installments commencing one year from the anniversary date of the grant. On
  June 4, 1999 an amendment to the plan was adopted by the Board of Directors,
  extending the plan for a period of 5 years and the plan expires on June 30,
  2004. The plan was amended to reflect I.R.S. code section 152(M) providing
  that the exercise price of the option will be set at the time of the
  granting the option at a price no lower than the closing price of the stock
  on the day of the granting of the option. The stock options generally expire
  between five and seven years after the date of grant.  The stock option plan
  shall terminate on June 30, 2004.

  In 1996 a total of 84,000 options were granted which did not vest until 1999
  at which time they vested 100%.  In 1998, 140,000 options were granted to
  employees other than executive officers or directors. The options vest at
  25% per year starting in 1999. In 1999 a total of 52,500 options were
  granted to employees other than executive officers or directors. The options
  vest at varying rates starting in 2000. In 2000 a total of 325,500 options
  were granted to employees, executive officers and directors. These options
  vest at varying rates. To date 82,250 options have been exercised under this
  plan.

  Other than the non-qualified 1989 Stock Option Plan, the Company has no
  pension or profit sharing plan or other contingent forms of remuneration.
  The Company does have a 401K plan, however the company does not contribute
  to the plan. The plan is funded only by employee contributions.

  Compensation of Directors

  Directors of the Company are not compensated for being on the Board of
  Directors. However, during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2000, 10,000
  non-qualified options were issued to Messrs. Rosenbaum, Temple, Teitelbaum,
  and Gunther. These options were issued to the directors on August 1, 2000 at
  a grant price of $2.00. The vesting of these options is at 25% for each of
  the next four years.

  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

  During 2000, the Company incurred approximately $26,000. in legal fees to
  Martin J. Teitelbaum.  Mr. Teitelbaum, a director of the Company, is the
  principal attorney for the law offices of Martin J. Teitelbaum.
