    The Company has a Management Compensation Plan based upon earnings of the
    Company. As a guideline, the plan provides that participants may share in an
    incentive fund equal to 12% of pretax earnings, provided such pretax
    earnings amount to at least a 10% return on the Company's equity. However,
    both the participants and the amount of bonus are discretionary. In
    addition, the Company may offer separate incentives and commissions on an
    individual basis.
 
(B) Options were granted for ACMAT Class A Stock and Common Stock.
 
(C) The amounts shown in this column represent contributions made by the Company
    to the Company's Thrift, Profit Sharing and Retirement Plan ("Plan"). The
    Plan provides that all nonunion employees employed on a full time or part
    time salaried basis are eligible to participate on the first day of January
    or July after twelve consecutive months of employment. The Company
    contributes amounts, as determined by the Board of Directors, to be
    allocated among the participants according to a formula based upon the
    employee's years of service and compensation. A participant becomes vested
    at the rate of 20% per year commencing after two years of service.
 
     Directors who are not employees of the Company are paid an annual fee of
$4,000. Certain directors and officers of the Company also serve as directors
and officers of United Coasts Corporation ("United Coasts") and have been
granted options to purchase United Coasts stock. These options are set forth in
the table of year-end 1995 option values, except for 10,000 options exercised by
Mr. John C. Creasy during 1995.
 
     The following table provides information on options exercised during 1995

            REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
 
     The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is composed of a
non-employee director. The Committee makes recommendations to the Board of
Directors as to policies which govern both annual compensation and stock
ownership programs for the Chief Executive Officer and certain other executive
 
                                        5
<PAGE>   8
 
officers. Each year, salaries are determined and awards are made, if warranted,
under the Management Compensation Plan.
 
     The Committee annually evaluates the Company's corporate performance, and
its executive compensation and incentive programs compared with our own industry
and with a broader group of companies.
 
     The Company's compensation programs are designed to reward executives for
long-term strategic management and the enhancement of shareowner value, and are
leveraged on the basis of performance in terms of both cash compensation and
incentive plans, paying more with good performance and less when it is below
standard. The Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers received 5%
salary increases during 1995. There were awards made under the Management
Compensation Plan based on the Company's performance in 1995.
 
     During 1996, the Compensation Committee will continue to carefully consider
executive compensation in relation to the Company's performance compared to that
of industry performance levels.
 
     The Company has no formal employment agreements.

                                    GENERAL

anticipated are those ordinarily incurred in connection with the preparation and

by telephone by certain directors, officers and regular employees of the Company
in the ordinary course of the performance of their duties and without extra
