          EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLANS

          The Company established its 1992 Stock Option Plan (the "1992
          Plan") to enable the Company to recruit and retain selected
          officers and other employees by providing equity participation in
          the Company to such individuals.  Under the 1992 Plan, regular
          salaried employees, including directors who are full time
          employees, may be granted options exercisable at not less than
          100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of
          grant.  The exercise price of any option granted to an optionee
          who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the voting power of
          all classes of stock of the Company must be 110% of the fair
          market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant and the
          duration of the options granted may not exceed five years.  Prior
          to the existence of any public market for the Company's shares,
          the fair market value had been determined from time to time by
          the Board of Directors.  Options generally become exercisable at
          a rate of 33% of the shares subject to an option one year after
          its grant.  The remaining shares generally become exercisable
          over an additional 24 months.  The duration of options may not
          exceed ten years.  Options under the Plan are nonassignable,
          except in the case of death and may be exercised only while the
          optionee is employed by the Company, or in certain cases, within
          a specified period after termination of employment (within three
          months) or death (within twelve months).  The purchase price and
          number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased upon
          exercise of options are subject to adjustment in certain cases,
          including stock splits, recapitalizations and reorganizations.

          Under the 1992 Plan, the Company may grant qualified or non-
          qualified options for the purchase of 880,000 shares of Common
          Stock.  At the year ended September 30, 1997, there were 594,975
          shares reserved for exercise of options granted, of which 431,937
          were exercisable subject to vesting, and 285,025 were available
          for grant under such plan.  Officers and members of the Board of
          Directors hold an aggregate of 778,881 options, subject to
          vesting, having exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.25.

          The amount of options granted and to whom they are granted, is
          determined by the Board of Directors with the recommendation of
          the Compensation Committee, at their discretion.  There are no
          specific criteria, performance formulas or measures applicable to
          the determination of the amount of options to be granted and to
          whom such options are to be granted.

          The Company's 1982 Stock Option Plan (the "1982 Plan") terminated
          on January 29, 1992, The terms and conditions of such Plan were
          in all material respects identical with the 1992 Plan.  As of
          December 31, 1997, 9,805 options remain outstanding under the
          1982 Plan expiring in 2001 at an exercise price of $1.00, and no
          further options may be granted under such Plan.

          SAVINGS AND RETIREMENT PLANS

          In July 1987 the Company instituted a Savings and Retirement Plan
          (the "S&R Plan").  Under the S&R Plan, every full-time salaried
          employee who is 18 years of age or older may contribute up to 15%
          of his or her annual salary to the S&R Plan.  The Company will
          make a matching contribution of $.25 for every $1.00 of the
          employee's contribution for an employee contribution of up to but
          not exceeding 6 percent of the employee's annual salary.  Company
          contributions are 100% vested after 60 months of contributions to
          the S&R Plan.  Benefits are payable under the S&R Plan upon
          termination of a participant's employment with the Company or at
          retirement, The S&R Plan meets the requirements of Section 401(k)
          of the Internal Revenue Code.  Internal Revenue Service
          regulations limit the percentage of tax-deferred contributions
          that can be made by higher-compensated participants.  There are
          restrictions upon withdrawal of tax deferred contributions, but
          participants are permitted to borrow against the value of their
          tax deferred accounts.
