               2.   16,000 shares are held by Mr. Feinstein's children. Mr.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
          with Respect to the Securities of the Issuer
          --------------------------------------------------------

          Pursuant to the terms of an employment agreement, as amended,
          effective as of August 27, 1992, Ronald Feinstein became the Executive
          Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company on October
          1, 1992, and the President and Chief Executive Officer on January 1,
          1993. Mr. Feinstein receives a base salary of not less than $200,000
          annually. Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Feinstein's agreement, on
          September 1, 1992, the Company sold to Mr. Feinstein 83,333 shares of
          the Company's Common Stock at a price of $3.00 per share (which
          represented the fair market value of the Common Stock on August 27,
          1992) for an aggregate price of $250,000. The Company loaned $250,000
          to Mr. Feinstein for seven years at an annual interest rate of 5.98%
          pursuant to the terms of a promissory note (the "Note") which is
          secured by the Common Stock that Mr. Feinstein purchased. The Note
          will accelerate and become immediately due and payable on the
          twentieth business day following a determination (the "Determination
          Date")

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
          by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, with the approval of
          the Chairman of the Compensation Committee, that the value of 40,000
          shares of Common Stock (based on the average of the high and low trade
          prices reported on the Nasdaq National Market for the 15 consecutive
          trading days prior to the Determination Date) exceeds (i) the sum of
          $450,000 plus (ii) the federal and state taxes on a gross-up basis in
          effect on the Determination Date, determined as if 40,000 shares, with
          a total cost of $200,000, were bought and sold on the Determination
          Date and resulted in a net profit after applicable taxes of $250,000.
          Until the Note is paid in full, but in no event later than April 15,
          1999, the Company will pay Mr. Feinstein a bonus equal to the lesser
          of (x) the annual interest due on the Note and (y) 1% of the Company's
          pre-tax profit (a) in the first year that the Company achieves a
          specified level of after-tax net profit, and (b) in subsequent years,
          in the event that the Company achieves certain percent increases in
          net profit from the previous year.

          Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Feinstein also received a
          nonstatutory stock option to purchase up to 150,000 shares of Common
          Stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share (which represented the
          fair market value on the date of grant), vesting one-fifth on the date
          of grant and one-fifth on each of the next four anniversary dates. The
          original expiration date of this stock option was the fifth
          anniversary of the date of grant; on December 6, 1995, the Stock
          Option Plans Committee extended the exercise period of the option for
          an additional five years, so that the option will expire on August 27,
          2002. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Feinstein was also
          granted a stock option to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Common
          Stock at $3.00 per share (which represented the fair market value on
          the date of grant), subject to a vesting schedule that originally
          provided for vesting in three equal annual installments commencing
          April 15 in the year following the achievement of certain financial
          goals. On September 27, 1995, the Stock Option Plans Committee amended
          this option to provide for vesting on the earlier of the six-year
          anniversary of the date of grant or in three equal annual installments
          commencing April 15 in the year following the achievement of certain
          financial goals. Upon a change in control of the Company, (i) the
          stock option for 150,000 shares described above would be accelerated
          and deemed to be

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
 
          vested, and (ii) the stock option for 100,000 shares described above
          would also be accelerated and deemed to be vested, provided that the
          Company has achieved a certain level of profitability for the four
          quarters preceding such change in control.

          The Company also granted to Mr. Feinstein the following options for
          his service as a director of the Company: options to purchase 1,001
          shares at $2.42 per share granted on January 1, 1990, which were
          exercised on February 13, 1995; options to purchase 4,500 shares at
          $10.00 per share granted on January 9, 1991, which options are
          currently fully-vested; and options to purchase 3,000 shares at
          $14.375 per share granted on January 9, 1992, which options are
          currently fully vested.
