ITEM 1.  BUSINESS


GENERAL

Moore Medical Corp. (the "Company") is a national distributor of health-care
products.  It was incorporated in Delaware in 1969 and its business is in its
fiftieth year of operation.

The Company sells and distributes health-care products to over twenty targeted
customer groups serving health-care needs in various business settings.  Its
health-care products comprise approximately 13,000 items consisting of
pharmaceuticals and medical/surgical supplies.  It sells to approximately 90,000
customers who are typically either professional health-care practitioners or
wholesale customers purchasing products for resale.  The Company sells through
direct mail, telemarketing, and a small field sales force.  Most customer orders
are processed by telemarketing representatives.  The Company fulfills orders,
nation-wide, from four regional distribution centers located in Connecticut,
Florida, Illinois, and California and ships orders by common carriers.


RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

In 1995, the Company continued to direct its marketing and sales initiatives
toward customers ordering the higher gross margin products, namely
medical/surgical supplies and generic pharmaceuticals.  Sales of
medical/surgical supplies increased 22% during the year with most of this
increase coming from health-care practitioner customers.  The number of health-
care practitioner customers grew over 20% in 1995, primarily as a result of
additional catalog advertising in 1994 and 1995.  In its wholesale markets, the
Company experienced continuing competitive pressures on pharmaceutical prices
throughout 1995.  As a result, sales of brand-name pharmaceuticals decreased
slightly in 1995 and gross profit decreased on both brand-name and generic
pharmaceuticals.

In March, 1995, the Company opened a new distribution center in Jacksonville,
Florida.  This 60,000 square foot leased facility enables the Company to better
serve customers in the Southeast with more rapid delivery, and it also increases
company-wide distribution capacity.

In January, 1996, the Company entered into a new three-year revolving credit
agreement which will result in lower interest rates than under the prior
agreement.


DISTRIBUTION OF HEALTH-CARE PRODUCTS

Health-care product distributors purchase a wide range of products from numerous
manufacturers and sell them to a variety of customers in health-care businesses.
Distributors provide the convenience of product availability to customers by
stocking thousands of different products, manufactured by hundreds of different
manufacturers.  Distributors provide the service of efficiently and economically
moving products from large and concentrated inventories at separate
manufacturers to smaller quantities of much more varied product selections
required by their customers.  Distributors also offer customers prompt delivery,
competitive prices and a variety of other services.

PRODUCTS

The Company distributes approximately 13,000 health-care products consisting of
pharmaceuticals and medical/surgical supplies.  The majority of the products
comprise consumables and disposables.  The Company also sells some small-dollar
medical equipment.  The Company does not manufacture any products but purchases
all its products, primarily direct from manufacturers.  Brand-name
pharmaceuticals offered by the Company generally consist of a selection of the
faster moving items and sizes.  The Company also offers a full line of generic
pharmaceuticals which it sells under its H.L. Moore label and Valumed trademark.
The Company carries an extensive selection of medical/surgical supplies
consisting of disposable supplies, diagnostic tests, instruments and related
equipment.  Some of the medical/surgical supplies are sold under the Moore
private label.


The following table shows net sales and the percentage of total sales for each
major category of products for the past three years.

</TABLE>

CUSTOMERS

The Company's customers serve health-care needs in various business settings.
The Company sells to targeted customer groups in over twenty separate types of
health-care businesses.  These customer groups generally align into two broad
categories:  (1) professional health-care practitioners and (2) wholesale
customers purchasing products for resale. The professional health-care
practitioners use the products in their profession, generally in non-hospital
settings.  In this customer category, the Company's most significant customer
groups are emergency medical services, occupational health practitioners,
physicians, podiatrists, school health-care staffs, and surgeons.  Most of the
Company's medical/surgical supplies are sold to professional health-care
practitioners, and most of its pharmaceuticals are sold to wholesale customers.
In the wholesale customer category, the Company's most significant customer
groups are independent pharmacies, mail order prescription providers,
medical/surgical dealers, nursing home prescription providers, pharmaceutical
wholesalers, and pharmacy chains. Pharmacy businesses have been undergoing
consolidation of independent pharmacies into pharmacy chains.  The Company's ten
largest customers are wholesale customers and they account for approximately 20%
of total sales.  No individual customer accounts for 10% or more of sales. While
the Company is not dependent on any single customer, the loss of its largest
customer, or a few of its largest customers, could materially reduce the
Company's future earnings.

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
SELLING METHODS AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

The Company sells, nation-wide, to existing and prospective customers on a
business-to-business basis through direct mail, telemarketing and a small field
sales force.  A variety of catalogs and other product literature are mailed on a
periodic basis to all health-care practitioner customers and most wholesale
customers.  Catalogs and other product literature are specifically designed for
each customer group and feature different products for each specialty area.
Catalogs and product literature are mailed to prospective customers using
mailing lists and to current customers based on buying patterns.

Telemarketing representatives receive most customer orders through toll-free
calls.  Most specialize in one or several customer groups and all are trained on
product features and sales techniques to effectively process orders, respond to
customer inquiries, and sell products.  Each telemarketing representative is
supported by an advanced phone system and is equipped with a computer terminal.
Some telemarketing representatives make outbound calls to solicit sales.

A small number of field sales representatives build relationships and negotiate
sales terms with the Company's larger customers.  These customers place orders
through telemarketing representatives, facsimile terminals and electronic data
interchange (EDI).

The Company fulfills orders from four regional distribution centers located in
Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, and California.  Customer orders are directed
from telemarketing via computer to the distribution center closest to the
customer.  There, orders are picked, packed and shipped to customers by common
carriers.  The Company's sales, marketing, distribution, and purchasing
processes are information intensive, making its computer systems essential to
efficient operations.


SUPPLIERS

The Company distributes the products of approximately 750 manufacturers,
including most brand-name pharmaceutical manufacturers and a representative
selection of manufacturers of generic drugs and medical/surgical products.

A comparatively small number of pharmaceutical manufacturers account for a large
share of the Company's purchases.  The Company's largest suppliers of brand-name
pharmaceuticals in 1995 were Bristol Myers Squibb, Glaxo, Pfizer, Schering
Laboratories and SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals.  The Company's largest
suppliers of generic pharmaceuticals in 1995 were Barr Laboratories, Biocraft
Laboratories, Inwood Laboratories, Sidmak Laboratories and Zenith Laboratories.
Management believes that the Company is a significant customer of many of its
generic pharmaceutical suppliers.  The Company has several competing sources for
generic pharmaceuticals and medical/surgical supplies, and it is not dependent
on any single supplier.  The Company does not have any significant long-term
purchase commitments with its suppliers, nor does it have any exclusive rights
for a territorial area.

COMPETITION

Generally, the Company competes with other distributors on price, delivery
speed, breadth of product lines, order completion rates, and other customer
service factors.


In the Company's wholesale markets, the Company competes with national and
regional distributors, direct-selling manufacturers, specialty distributors and
other mail order catalogers.  Many of these competitors are larger and have
substantially greater resources than the Company.  According to a national
securities research firm, the Company's sales volume accounts for less than 1%
of the United States wholesale drug distribution market while the six largest
wholesale drug distributors account for over 80% of this market.  Most wholesale
customers either use one of these six large distributors as their primary
distributor or buy directly from manufacturers.  The Company serves these
customers as a secondary supplier on selected brand-name pharmaceuticals and
medical/surgical supplies, principally by offering favorable prices.  For the
Company's full line of generic pharmaceuticals, the Company also offers
favorable prices and it is a primary supplier of these products to some of its
customers.  In generic pharmaceuticals, the Company also competes by providing a
single source of supply for a broad product line, product consistency, and
administrative efficiencies in tracking regulatory product drug control numbers.


Competition in the Company's health-care practitioner markets is highly
fragmented.  In these markets, competitors consist largely of regional and local
distributors and other mail order catalogers.  The strongest competitors in each
market area generally compete with the Company in only one or a few of its
market areas.  In most of these markets, the Company offers a broad selection of
products, including pharmaceuticals, which are offered by few competitors.  The
Company also competes by offering favorable prices, particularly on Moore-brand
medical/surgical products and on generic drugs.  In addition, the Company
provides prompt delivery of within one-to-two days for most of the country, high
order-completion rates, technical support, and easy-to-use catalogs and ordering
procedures.


REGULATION

Pharmaceutical distribution is subject to regulation by federal, state and local
governmental agencies.  The Company is licensed to distribute pharmaceutical
products and certain controlled substances.  Its operating and security
practices must comply with statutes and regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration, the federal Drug Enforcement Agency and state boards of pharmacy
and health.  The Company believes that it is in material compliance with the
applicable statutes and regulations.


EMPLOYEES

As of February, 1996, the Company employed approximately 400 people, most of
whom work in its sales, marketing and distribution operations.

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

The Company owns no real property and it leases all its operating facilities.
Its distribution centers are located in New Britain, Connecticut (92,000 square
feet), Jacksonville, Florida (60,000 square feet), Lemont, Illinois (42,000
square feet), and Visalia, California (50,000 square feet).  The Jacksonville,
Visalia, and Lemont facilities are less than six years old, and are well
equipped and laid out for operating efficiencies.  The older New Britain
facility is well equipped and maintained, but less favorably arranged for
operating efficiencies.  Management considers all of the distribution centers to
be in satisfactory condition.

Telemarketing centers (13,000 square feet in total) are located in Connecticut
and California.  These centers are outfitted with modern telecommunications and
computerized order entry equipment. Centralized marketing and administrative
functions are performed in a well maintained facility in New Britain,
Connecticut (26,000 square feet).  Office space for telemarketing and
administration is adequate for the Company's present needs but is approaching
full occupancy.  An additional 5,000 square feet of office space is planned for
1996.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

See Note 9 - Litigation to Financial Statements.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matter was submitted to a vote of shareholders during the fiscal fourth
quarter of 1995.

beneficial holders) of the Company's common stock as of March 4, 1996 was
approximately 3,000.

The Company has paid no cash dividends and has no plans to do so in the
foreseeable future.  Its loan agreement contains restrictions on dividend
payments.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1995 COMPARED WITH 1994


Net sales of $289.1 million increased 6% from 1994.  Sales of pharmaceuticals,
comprising brand-name and generic products, increased 2% to $220.1 million.
Generic pharmaceutical sales increased in 1995 while sales of brand-name
pharmaceuticals decreased slightly.  Sales of medical/surgical supplies
increased 22% in 1995 to $69.0 million.  The Company's change in the product mix
of sales continued, as planned, to be toward medical/surgical supplies and
generic pharmaceuticals and away from brand-name pharmaceuticals.

Gross profit increased 6% to $41.5 million in 1995.  Gross profit benefited
significantly from the increased sales of medical/surgical supplies, which have
higher gross margin rates than pharmaceuticals.  Partially offsetting this
benefit were decreases in gross profit on both brand-name and generic
pharmaceuticals as a result of continuing competitive pressures on
pharmaceuticals throughout 1995.  Overall, the Company ended 1995 with a gross
margin rate of 14.4%, which was comparable to the prior year's rate.  The
Company's sales prices generally reflect changes in product cost, and,
therefore, the effects of inflation and deflation on the gross profit margin is
not significant.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year 1995 increased 12%.
The largest factor giving rise to the increase was added costs for marketing and
distribution, primarily associated with the increased sales of medical/surgical
supplies, especially to health-care practitioners.  The Company estimates that
the number of health-care practitioner customers and sales to this customer
group grew over 20% in 1995, primarily as a result of additional catalog
advertising.  The rate of increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses was lower in the last half of 1995 than in the first half of the year.
The higher rate of increase in the first half of the year was due primarily to
the $330,000 pre-opening start-up costs for the Company's Jacksonville, Florida,
distribution center, higher catalog advertising expense and increased
expenditures to enhance information systems in the first half.

<PAGE>
 
Operating income in 1995 decreased from 1994, primarily attributable to a
decrease in gross profit on pharmaceuticals due to competitive pressures and, to
a lesser extent, to expenses related to opening the new distribution center.
For 1995 the contribution to profits of medical/surgical supplies increased, but
the contribution to profits of pharmaceuticals decreased due to pharmaceutical
pricing pressures in the Company's wholesale markets.

Interest expense increased 28% in 1995. Higher interest rates accounted for most
of the increase. Interest rates, which had increased significantly during 1994
and into early 1995, remained relatively stable through the middle of 1995 and
decreased slightly during the last half of 1995. In January 1996, the Company
entered into a new three-year banking agreement which will result in lower
interest rates than under the prior agreement.

The effective income tax rate of 33.5% was slightly lower than the federal
statutory tax rate due primarily to realization of tax carryforwards which
resulted in a reduction of the tax valuation allowance.  Management estimates
the 1996 effective income tax rate will be approximately 35%.

The 34% decrease in net income in 1995 was primarily attributable to a decrease
in gross profit on pharmaceuticals due to competitive pressures, higher interest
expense and expenses related to opening the new distribution center.



1994 COMPARED WITH 1993

Net sales of $271.8 million decreased slightly from 1993.  The decrease occurred
during the first three quarters of the year, while sales showed a 3% increase in
the fourth quarter of 1994.  For the year, sales increases of medical/surgical
supplies and generic pharmaceuticals largely offset a decrease in sales of
brand-name pharmaceuticals.

The gross profit margin rate increased for the fourth consecutive year and was
14.3% compared with 13.1% in 1993. Gross profit dollars increased 8% to $39.0
million.  The improved gross profit resulted primarily from the planned change
in sales mix toward medical/surgical supplies and generic drugs, both of which
have higher gross margin rates than brand-name pharmaceuticals.  Gross profits
in 1994 were negatively affected by a decrease in the gross margin rate on
brand-name pharmaceuticals.  The Company's sales prices generally reflect
changes in product costs, and, therefore, the effects of inflation and deflation
on the gross profit margin is not significant.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Company's business are
generally higher as a percent of sales for products having higher gross margins.
Therefore, changes in these expenses tend to correlate more with changes in
gross profit than with sales.  Such expenses in 1994 increased by 10%, a rate
moderately greater than the 8% increase in gross profit.  Approximately half of
the increase in these expenses was for employee compensation and related
benefits and for freight to deliver more shipments.  In addition, catalog
advertising expense increased 65% for the year, with most of the increase
occurring in the second half.  This added expense of $1.1 million resulted
primarily from mailing significantly more catalogs to expanded mailing lists of
health-care practitioners in an effort to build a larger customer base.  The
number of health-care practitioner customers increased 11% in 1994, with all the
growth coming in the second half of the year.

<PAGE>
 
Operating income in 1994 decreased slightly from 1993, attributable primarily to
increased advertising expenses which were not fully recovered through increased
sales by the end of 1994.  As a percent of sales, operating income remained at
the six year high rate reached in 1993.

Although the prime rate and LIBOR increased during 1994, the Company's effective
weighted average interest rate during the year remained the same as 1993 at
7.3%.  This was achieved through negotiating a more favorable financing
agreement near the beginning of 1994.  The 24% decrease in interest expense in
1994 resulted from a similar decrease in average debt levels which was
accomplished through earnings and working capital management, particularly
inventory management.  As interest rates increased during 1994, interest expense
generally increased throughout the year.  At the end of 1994, the Company's
effective interest rate was 8.6%.

The effective income tax rate of 35.1% was higher than the federal statutory tax
rate due principally to state income tax provisions.

Net income increased 13% in 1994 as a result of higher gross profits and lower
interest expense exceeding greater costs for selling, general and administrative
expenses.


FINANCIAL CONDITION

During 1995, the financial condition of the Company continued several years of
progressive improvement.  Debt at the end of 1995 was lower than equity for the
first time in eight years.  Net cash provided by operating activities in 1995
was $4.3 million, of which $2.1 million was used to pay down debt and $2.2
million was used for capital expenditures, primarily investments in equipment
and leasehold improvements.  Most of these capital expenditures were incurred in
connection with the opening of a new distribution center in Jacksonville,
Florida.  Net cash provided by operating activities of $4.3 million was greater
than net income of $2.3 million due to depreciation and amortization of $1.7
million and deferred income taxes of $0.3 million.

Debt financing has been provided by a secured, revolving line of credit.  In
January, 1996, the Company entered into a new revolving line of credit financing
agreement with a bank.  This $45 million secured line of credit extends through
December 31, 1998.  The facility provides for funding limited by a formula using
accounts receivable balances and inventory levels as the primary variables.
Interest on loans is charged at the prime rate or, at the option of the Company,
at the Eurodollar rate plus a rate in a range of 1% to 2% depending on the
financial leverage of the Company.  In addition the Company pays a 1/4%
commitment fee on the unused line of credit.  Substantially all assets of the
Company have been pledged as collateral and the agreement contains covenants and
restrictions relating to asset protection, financial condition, dividends,
investments, acquisitions and certain other matters.  Under the prior financing
facility that was in effect for 1995, interest on loans was charged at the prime
rate plus a 1/4% premium or, at the option of the Company, at LIBOR plus 2 1/2%.
The Company has purchased two interest rate caps, a form of derivative, which
are used to reduce the potential impact of increases in interest rates on
floating-rate debt.  The Company does not use derivatives for trading purposes.
(See also Note 4 to the Financial Statements.)


Management believes that the funding needs of the Company will continue to be
met through income from operations, working capital management and financing
under it's line of credit.  Capital expenditures for 1996 are expected to be
between $1.5 million and $2.0 million.

MOORE MEDICAL CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GENERAL - The Company is a national distributor of health-care products. The
Company sells and distributes health-care products to over twenty targeted
customer groups serving health-care needs in various business settings.  Its
health-care products comprise approximately 13,000 items consisting of
pharmaceuticals and medical/surgical supplies.  It sells to approximately 90,000
customers who are typically either professional health-care practitioners or
wholesale customers purchasing products for resale.  The Company sells through
direct mail, telemarketing, and a small field sales force.  Most customer orders
are processed by telemarketing representatives.  The Company fulfills orders,
nation-wide, from four regional distribution centers located in Connecticut,
Florida, Illinois, and California and ships orders by common carriers.

FISCAL YEAR - The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December
31.  The fiscal years ended December 30, 1995, December 31, 1994 and January 1,
1994 and comprised 52 weeks each.

INVENTORIES - Inventories, consisting of products purchased for resale, are
stated at the lower of average cost or market value.  Market values are based on
estimated sales prices of products.

EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS - Equipment is recorded at cost.
Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives (3-7 years) of the assets.  Leasehold improvements are depreciated over
the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Major improvements to equipment are capitalized.  The cost of assets sold or
retired and the related amounts of accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts in the year of disposal, and any resulting gain or loss is included in
income.

SALES AND CUSTOMERS - Sales are recorded upon shipment of products to customers.
While the Company is not dependent on any single customer, the loss of its
largest customer, or a few of its largest customers, could materially reduce the
Company's future earnings.  Accounts receivable have been reduced by estimated
amounts for allowances related to future charges for uncollected accounts,
product returns and customer rebates.

ADVERTISING - The cost of direct response catalog advertising is deferred and
amortized over the expected revenues.  Direct response catalog advertising
consists primarily of catalog production expenses.  Catalogs are effective for
varying time periods but the largest catalogs are generally effective for less
than a year.  At December 31, 1995 and December 30, 1994, $534,000 and $310,000,
respectively, of direct response catalog advertising expenses were deferred.
Catalog advertising expense totaled $3,150,000, $2,676,000 and $1,616,000 in
1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

INCOME TAXES - The liability method is used to calculate deferred income taxes.
Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized on
temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets
and liabilities, using applicable tax rates, and on tax carryforwards.

NET INCOME PER SHARE - Net income per share of common stock is based on the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive
common stock options (2,900,000 shares in 1995, 2,908,000 shares in 1994 and
2,887,000 shares in 1993).

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", is effective in 1996.  This statement
does not require the Company to change accounting methods, but the Company may
elect to change and is reviewing its choices for future financial reporting.

                                       16
<PAGE>
 
ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Subsequent actual outcomes could differ from those estimated
and assumed.

RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform
with the current year presentation.

NOTE 4 - REVOLVING CREDIT FINANCING

In January, 1996, the Company consummated a new revolving line of credit
financing agreement with a bank.  This $45 million secured line of credit
extends through December 31, 1998.  The facility provides for funding limited by
a formula using accounts receivable balances and inventory levels as the primary
variables.  Interest on loans is charged at the prime rate or, at the option of
the Company, at the Eurodollar rate plus a rate in a range of 1% to 2% depending
on the financial leverage of the Company.  In addition the Company  pays a 1/4%
commitment fee on the unused line of credit.  Substantially all assets of the
Company have been pledged as collateral and the agreement contains covenants and
restrictions relating to asset protection, financial condition, dividends,
investments, acquisitions and certain other matters.  Under the prior financing
facility that was in effect for 1995, interest on loans was charged at the prime
rate plus a 1/4% premium or, at the option of the Company, at LIBOR plus 2 1/2%.
The fair value of the revolving credit debt as of December 30, 1995 approximated
its reported balance because the debt agreement was cancelable and renegotiable
at any time at the sole option of the Company and interest rates were based on
short-term variable rates.

Cash payments for interest on revolving credit financing totaled $2,634,000,
$2,022,000 and $2,768,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

Interest rate caps, a form of derivative, are used to reduce the potential
impact of increases in interest rates on floating-rate debt.  The Company does
not use derivatives for trading purposes.  In December, 1993, the Company
purchased a five-year, $10 million, 5.5% LIBOR cap and in January, 1996, it
purchased a three-year, $5 million, 7.0% LIBOR cap. Purchase prices are deferred
(included in "Other assets") and amortized to interest expense over the terms of
the caps and proceeds from these instruments, if any, are credited to interest
expense when earned. The unamortized cost of the interest rate caps approximates
fair value.

NOTE 5 - LEASE COMMITMENTS

The Company leases its distribution centers, office facilities and certain
equipment.  The operating lease agreements expire at various dates through 2003.
Future minimum lease payments, as of December 30, 1995, under all leases are as
follows:  1996, $1,366,000; 1997, $1,135,000; 1998, $1,005,000; 1999, $482,000;
2000, $413,000; 2001 and later years, $681,000.  Rental expense amounted to
$1,426,000, $1,258,000 and $1,137,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

NOTE 6 - RETIREMENT PLANS

All employees meeting eligibility requirements participate in the Company's
defined benefit pension plan under which pension benefits are based on the
employee's highest consecutive five year average annual compensation.  The
Company's funding policy is to comply with the minimum funding requirements set
by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
 
The components of net pension expense are as follows:

</TABLE>

The present value of the projected benefit obligation was determined using a
discount rate of 7.5% in 1995, 8.0% in 1994 and 7.0% in 1993.  The present value
of the projected benefit obligation is based on actuarial assumptions and on
estimates, including an assumed discount rate which may change in the future and
significantly affect the amount of this obligation. The effect of changes in the
discount rate for the past three years has been to increase (decrease) this
obligation by $390,000, $(780,000) and $388,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

The compensation rate increase assumption for all years was 5%.  The assumed
long-term rate of return on plan assets, which consist of a balanced fund and a
fixed income investment contract, was 9% for all years.

In addition to the pension plan, the Company has a 401(k) defined contribution
retirement plan available to employees meeting eligibility requirements.  This
plan provides for Company contributions of up to 3% of employees' compensation
plus additional Company contributions to partially match employee contributions.
Plan expense for the years 1995, 1994 and 1993 amounted to $537,000, $437,000
and $445,000, respectively.

In 1989, the Company adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan and declared a dividend
distribution  of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right (the "Rights") for each
outstanding share of common stock.  The Rights will become exercisable, with
certain exceptions, only if a party acquires 15% or more of the Company's common
stock or announces an offer to acquire 30% or more.  When exercisable, with some
exceptions, each Right will entitle its holder (other than the party acquiring
15% or more or offering to acquire 30% or more of the common stock) to buy one
one-hundredth of a share of a Series I Junior Participating Preferred Stock at a
purchase price of $75.00.  Upon the occurrence of certain events, Rightsholders
(other than such party) will be entitled to purchase either preferred stock of
the Company or shares of the acquiring company at half of their market value.
The Company will generally be entitled to redeem the Rights at $.01 per Right at
any time prior to the earlier of the expiration of the Rights in March,1999 or
ten days following the acquisition of 15% of the Company's common stock.

NOTE 8 - STOCK OPTIONS

The 1992 Incentive Stock Option Plan authorizes stock option grants for ten
years.  Stock option grants under a predecessor 1982 Incentive Stock Option Plan
were concluded in 1992.  Features under both plans are substantially the same.
Under both plans, options may be granted at prices not less than 100% of the
fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.  The options are
exercisable as determined by the Stock Option Committee of the Board of
Directors at the time of grant and are typically exercisable in four or five
cumulative annual installments beginning one year after the date of grant and
expiring five to ten years from the date of grant.

There were 200,000 shares authorized under each plan.  Under the 1992 and 1982
plans, respectively, 87,575 shares and 20,125 shares were outstanding;  and
48,150 shares and 14,100 shares were exercisable at the end of 1995.

The table below summarizes share activity and price per share under these plans.

NOTE 9 - LITIGATION

As previously reported, in 1991, a class action lawsuit was commenced against
the Company and certain of its present and former officers and directors.  On
August 1, 1995, Judge Shira A. Scheindlin of the United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York granted defendants' Motion for Summary
Judgment and dismissed the lawsuit.  Plaintiffs appealed the decision.  The
appeal was dismissed and the lawsuit was terminated by agreement of the parties
pursuant to which defendants reimbursed plaintiffs' lawyers for their out-of-
pocket expenses incurred during the lawsuit.  The Company's share of such
reimbursement was $35,000.
