     Average annual compensation is based upon the participant's annual
compensation (including bonuses and similar special pay), as more fully defined
in the Pension Plan, over the number of years of participation up to a maximum
of 35 years. During fiscal 1994, the maximum amount of annual compensation 
which may be included for Pension Plan purposes is $150,000. The figures 
shown above apply for new participants under the Pension Plan as of December 
31, 1994. Estimated annual benefits are determined in part by the average 
Social Security wage base during the 35 years ending in the year of Social 
Security Normal Retirement Age. The benefit amounts listed are not subject 
to any deduction for Social Security or other offset amounts. As a result 
of limitations imposed under Federal income tax law, the maximum annual 
benefit payable under the Pension Plan is $118,800, although the amount will 
be actuarially adjusted in accordance with Federal income tax regulations 
if payments commence prior to or following the date that unreduced Social 
Security benefits become payable. As of December 31, 1994, Messrs. Korman, 
Gleklen and Sandler had 20, 10 and 6 years of service credited, 
respectively, under the Pension Plan. Mr. Rotko has not participated in the 
Pension Plan.
