SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's directors and executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of
a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership of such securities with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Directors, executive officers and greater than 10%
beneficial owners are required by applicable regulations to furnish the Company
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they have filed.
Based solely upon a review of the copies of these forms furnished to the
Company and representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were
required, the Company believes that during 1999 all directors, executive
officers and greater than 10% beneficial owners complied with all applicable
filing requirements.

matter will be included in the calculation of the presence of a quorum, but will
not be counted as votes cast for or against the action to be

officers of the Company are provided under employment agreements dated
September 14, 1993. Both employment agreements are on an "at-will" basis

salary determined and reviewed by the Company at least annually, the same types
of benefits accorded to other executives of the Company and continuance of a
split dollar insurance plan during the period of employment and thereafter on
specified conditions. If termination of employment results from death, the
deceased executive's legal representative will be entitled to receive the earned
obligations under the employment agreements, including (i) full base salary

representative or designated beneficiary. If employment is terminated for any
reason other than death, disability or retirement, the executive will have no

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
SPLIT DOLLAR INSURANCE PLAN
The Company is a party to split dollar insurance plans effective
June 11,1993, which provide additional compensation to Edward Joseph Hussey and
to Michael F. Hussey in the form of cash compensation and in assisting certain
trusts established by them to pay premiums on certain policies of life insurance
owned by the trusts. Under the split dollar insurance plans, the Company and the
trusts each pay part of the premium for those insurance policies. Upon the death
of the insureds, each trust has agreed to pay the Company an amount equal to all
premium payments made by the Company. Upon termination of either of the split
dollar insurance plans by the respective trust's surrender of the insurance
policy, delivery of notice of termination to the Company or failure to make a
required premium contribution, each trust has agreed to pay to the Company the
cash surrender value of the insurance policy, but not more than an amount equal
to all premium payments made by the Company relating to that policy.
COMPENSATION PRINCIPLES
The foundation of the executive compensation program is based on beliefs and
guiding principles designed to align compensation with business strategy,
Company values and management initiatives. The program:
- Integrates compensation programs with both the Company's annual and
long-term strategic planning and measurement processes.
- Supports a performance-oriented environment that rewards performance not
only with respect to Company goals but also with respect to Company
performance as compared to that of industry performance levels.
- Attracts and retains key executives critical to the long-term success of
the Company.

KEY EMPLOYEE BONUS PLAN
The Company's key employee bonus plan covers all key employees, including
all executive officers, of the Company. Participants are eligible to receive a
bonus established as a percentage of their base salary, which percentage may
depend upon the extent to which certain financial results are attained. Bonuses
are determined quarterly, on a cumulative basis, for each calendar year. Each
participant receives part of his bonus payment at the time the Company's
earnings reports for the applicable quarter are released to the public. The
balance of a participant's bonus is paid at the time the Company's annual
earnings are released to the public. Payments are made only if such participant
is employed by the Company on that date. Amounts paid and accrued under the Key
Employee Bonus Plan during 1999 are included in the compensation table above.
COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND PRESIDENT
The compensation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President,
Mr. Edward J. Hussey, is based upon the Compensation Principles and Key Employee
Bonus Plan described above. Mr. Hussey's base salary is determined by
considering the salaries of CEOs in similar sized businesses and competitor
companies. The remaining portion of his compensation is tied to the Company's
annual performance.
