with an option to renew for an additional five years. Under the agreement, Mr. Segal&#146;s base compensation is $300,000 per year with annual increases based on a Consumer Price Index formula. In addition, there is a profit bonus under which Mr.
Segal will receive 5% of the consolidated pre-tax earnings of the Company. The agreement also provided an option whereby Mr. Segal could require the Company to purchase all of his common stock in the Company on the date his employment terminated, at
the greater of fair market value or $10 per share (prior to adjustment). In 1997, in order to avoid the classification of the shares owned by Mr. Segal as &#147;mezzanine&#148; capital and the reduction to future earnings per share (or increase to
future loss per share) which would result with such classification, Mr. Segal agreed to relinquish his contractual right to require the Company to purchase his shares, in exchange for options, granted in 1998, to purchase 1,900,000 Class A and

the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, of: (a) 250,000 shares of the Company&#146;s Class B common stock; (b) options to purchase an aggregate of 1,900,000 shares of the Company&#146;s Class A
common stock; and (c) options to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of the Company&#146;s Class B common stock. This performance award was approved on April 24, 2003 by certain members of the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee,
i.e., Messrs. Fishman, Perlmutter and Remington, with Mr. Segal abstaining from the vote and related discussions, subject to stockholder approval. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P

Segal will be fully vested in the 250,000 shares of restricted Class B common stock as of the grant date, April 24, 2003, subject to Stockholder approval. Mr. Segal will also be entitled to vote the shares and to receive all dividends and other
distributions made in respect of the Class B common stock from the date of the grant. Mr. Segal&#146;s shares can not be registered under applicable securities laws and, accordingly, transfer of the shares will be restricted. </FONT></P><P

performance award will also grant Mr. Segal options which will entitle him to purchase 1,900,000 shares of Class A and 100,000 shares of Class B common stock. These options are nonqualified stock options and will be subject to the terms and
conditions of an award agreement to be entered into by the Company and Mr. Segal. Subject to Stockholder approval, the options granted to Mr. Segal will be fully vested and exercisable as of the grant date, April 24, 2003. Mr. Segal may exercise
these options to purchase Class A shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.89 per share, and Class B shares of common stock for a price of $1.15 per share, which was the closing selling price per share on the American Stock Exchange on the
grant date. These options expire on December 31, 2013. </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"
COLOR="#000000">In 1998, Mr. Segal received options to purchase 1,900,000 Class A and 100,000 Class B shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for his agreement to relinquish certain contractual rights that he held under his executive
employment agreement with the Company dated as of October 21, 1994. Those options expired before Mr. Segal exercised such options. The members of Board of Directors and Compensation Committee named above believe that, in order to preserve Mr.
Segal&#146;s financial incentive to further the Company&#146;s future progress and to award Mr. Segal for his role in the Company&#146;s successful acquisition of Newcor, Inc. in January 2003, which acquisition has substantially contributed to the
historical and expected revenues and net income of the Company, it is in the best interest of the Company and its Stockholders to grant Mr. Segal this performance award. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
