&#147;Company&#148;), for use at its 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Thursday, August 15, 2002, at 10:00 A.M., at the executive offices of the Company, 350 Woodview Avenue, Morgan Hill, California 95037. It is contemplated that
this solicitation of proxies will be made exclusively by mail; however, if it should appear desirable to do so in order to ensure adequate representation at the meeting, directors, officers and employees of the Company may communicate with
stockholders, brokerage houses and others by telephone, telegraph or in person to request that proxies be furnished and may reimburse banks, brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy
materials to the beneficial owners of the shares held by them. All expenses incurred in connection with this solicitation shall be borne by the Company. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">Holders of shares of common stock of the Company (&#147;stockholders&#148;) who execute proxies retain the right to revoke them at any time before they are voted. Any proxy given by a stockholder may
be revoked or superseded by executing a later dated proxy, by giving notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company, 350 Woodview Avenue, Morgan Hill, California 95037, in writing, prior to or at the meeting or by attending the meeting and
voting in person. A proxy, when executed and not so revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions given in the proxy. If a choice is not specified in the proxy, the proxy will be voted &#147;FOR&#148; the election of John W. Casey as a
director of the Company and &#147;FOR&#148; the reduction in the authorized number of the Company&#146;s shares. This Proxy Statement is first being mailed to stockholders on or about July
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;, 2002. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000"><B>VOTING SECURITIES </B></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">The shares of common stock constitute the only class of outstanding voting securities of the Company. Only the stockholders of
the Company of record as of the close of business on July 1, 2002 (the &#147;Record Date&#148;), will be entitled to vote at the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. As of the Record Date, there were 4,390,864 shares of common stock
outstanding and entitled to vote. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held as of the Record Date. Abstentions and broker non- votes are each included in the determination of the number of shares present and voting
for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">All stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual
Meeting of Stockholders are entitled to cumulate votes in the election of directors. With cumulative voting, each stockholder is entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of shares of
common stock held by such stockholder, and those votes may be cast for a single candidate for director or distributed among as many candidates as such stockholder desires. However, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Company&#146;s
Certificate of Incorporation, no stockholder may cumulate votes for any candidate for director unless the name of such candidate is placed in nomination before the voting and any stockholder gives notice, at the Annual Meeting and before the voting,
of such stockholder&#146;s intention to cumulate his or her votes. If such notice is given by any stockholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, then every stockholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be entitled to cumulate his or
her votes in the election of directors. However, since only one director is being elected at the Annual Meeting in 2002, all votes can be cast for no more than a single nominee and, therefore, cumulative voting will have no effect on the outcome of
the election. </FONT></DIV> <P></P>

arises, the Company strives to offer salaries and health care and other employee benefit programs to its executives and other key employees which are comparable to those offered by competing businesses. In establishing salaries for executive
officers, the Compensation Committee reviews (i) the historical performance of the executives; and (ii) available information regarding prevailing salaries and compensation programs offered by competing businesses. Another factor which is considered
in establishing salaries of executive officers is the cost of living in Northern California where the Company is headquartered, as such cost generally is higher than in other parts of the country. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT

COLOR="#000000">The Compensation Committee believes that, as a general rule, annual compensation in excess of base salaries should be made dependent primarily on the Company&#146;s performance. Accordingly, at the beginning of each fiscal year, the
Compensation Committee establishes an incentive compensation program for executive officers and other key management personnel under which they may earn bonuses, in amounts ranging from 5% to 100% of their annual salaries, provided the Company
achieves or exceeds the earnings goal established for the year. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">The earnings goal is established on the basis of
the annual operating plan that is initially developed by management, submitted to the Board of Directors for its review, possible modification and approval. The annual operating plan, which is designed to maximize profitability within the
constraints of prevailing economic and competitive conditions, some of which are outside the control of the Company, is developed on the basis of (i) the Company&#146;s performance in the prior year; (ii) estimates of sales revenue for the plan year
based upon recent market conditions and trends and other factors which, based on historical experience, are expected to affect the level of sales that can be achieved; (iii) historical operating costs and cost savings that management believes can be
realized; and (iv) competitive conditions faced by the Company. By taking all of these factors into account, the earnings goal in the annual operating plan, which is also the basis on which bonus awards are determined under the incentive plan, is
fixed at what is believed to be a realistic level so as to make the incentives meaningful to executives and to avoid penalizing executives and other key management personnel for conditions outside of their control. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT
SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">In certain instances, bonuses under the incentive plan are awarded not only on the basis of the Company&#146;s overall profitability, but
also on the achievement by an executive of specific objectives within his or her area of responsibility. For example, a bonus may be awarded for an executive&#146;s efforts in achieving greater than anticipated cost savings, or establishing new or
expanding existing markets for the Company&#146;s products. Typically, the maximum bonus that may be awarded for achievement of specific objectives is determined early in the year to provide the requisite incentive for such performance.

stock options to its senior executives and other key employees on a periodic basis and makes contributions to an employee stock purchase plan under which officers and employees may elect to have a portion of their salaries withheld and used,
together with the Company&#146;s contributions, to purchase common stock of the Company. Stock option grants, in particular, reward senior executives and other key employees for performance that results in increases in the market price of the
Company&#146;s common stock, which directly benefits all stockholders. Moreover, generally options are granted on terms which provide that the options become exercisable in cumulative annual installments, generally over a three-to-five-year period.
The Compensation Committee believes that these features of the option grants not only provide an incentive for senior executives to remain in the employ of the Company, but also makes the Company&#146;s earnings performance and longer term growth in
share prices important for the executives who receive stock options. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">Consistent with the foregoing policies,

authorized number of shares of Common Stock to 10,000,000 shares from the currently authorized 20,000,000 shares and the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock to 2,000,000 shares from the currently authorized 5,000,000 shares. </FONT></DIV>

on the number of its authorized shares. The Company estimates that it will save approximately $25,000 per year in franchise taxes if this Amendment is approved. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">As of June 30, 2002, a total of 4,390,864 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, and 1,082,768 shares were reserved for future issuance pursuant to the Company&#146;s employee stock option
and stock purchase plans. As a result, if the share reduction is approved, the Company will still have 4,526,368 authorized shares of Common Stock available that can be issued from time to time in the future for any number of corporate purposes,
including acquisitions of other companies or assets, sales of stock or securities convertible into stock, possible stock splits or stock dividends, and issuances of additional options or rights to purchase common stock. Currently no shares of
Preferred Stock are issued or outstanding and, accordingly, if the proposed reduction is approved and implemented the Company will still have 2,000,000 Preferred shares available for future issuance. The Company has no current plans, arrangements or
understandings with respect to the issuance of any additional shares of Common Stock or any shares of Preferred Stock. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"
COLOR="#000000"><I>Possible Effects of Adoption of Proposal.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;One consequence of this proposed reduction is that the Company would be required to seek the approval of the stockholders for an issuance of shares that would
cause the outstanding shares to exceed the number that are then authorized and unissued. This could delay the completion, and possibly increase the costs, of a transaction requiring the issuance of such shares, as it could take as many as 45 to 60
days to obtain that approval. However, we believe that, even after giving effect to the proposed reduction, there will be sufficient shares available for the Company&#146;s requirements for at least the next two or three years and, if there were a
significant reduction in the number of available shares due to additional issuances of shares in the meantime, it would be our intention to seek stockholder approval for an increase in the authorized number of shares at that time, rather than to
wait until additional shares were needed for a particular transaction. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000"><B>Vote Required and Recommendation of the Board of Directors
