               Without the prior consent of the Company, the Named
     Executives may not sell or otherwise transfer the shares of Common
     Stock acquired upon the exercise of any option listed in the above
     table for seven months following the date that a participant exercises
     such option. If at any time during the first six months of such seven-
     month period, the optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company,
     the Company will have the right to repurchase, at the exercise price
     therefor, the shares of Common Stock which the optionee had acquired
     upon such option exercise. Unexercised options will automatically
     terminate on the date that an optionee ceases to serve as an employee
     of the Company unless such termination of the optionee's employment
     with the Company results from his or her retirement, death or
     disability.

                               STOCK OPTION PLANS

               In 1984, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board")
     adopted, and the stockholders approved, the 1984 Employee Stock Option
     Plan of the Company (the "1984 Plan"). The 1984 Plan was developed to
     provide an incentive to officers and employees of the Company by
     making available to them an opportunity to acquire a proprietary
     interest or to increase their proprietary interest in the Company. In
     1994, the 1984 Plan was amended and restated (the "Amended 1984 Plan")
     to extend the 1984 Plan until April 20, 2004 and to increase the
     aggregate number of shares available under the 1984 Plan. Under the
     Amended 1984 Plan, the Compensation Committee is authorized to grant
     options to officers and employees of the Company and certain of its
     subsidiaries for up to an aggregate of 1,589,997 shares of Common
     Stock. The maximum term of options granted under the Amended 1984 Plan
     is ten years. As of March 1, 1996, the Company has granted options to
     purchase 1,361,468 shares to officers and employees of the Company
     under the Amended 1984 Plan. The Amended 1984 Plan is construed,
     interpreted and administered by the Compensation Committee and the
     terms of exercise of specific options are determined by the Board.

               In 1994, the Company terminated the 1992 Plan and adopted
     the 1994 Plan. The 1992 Plan was adopted as a one-time grant of
     options for 800,000 shares of Common Stock that vest over a three year
     period to certain members of senior management of the Company. Under
     the 1994 Plan, each holder of options under the 1992 Plan was granted
     new options at a fixed exercise price equal to the fair market value
     of the Common Stock on the date of grant and also issued shares of
     Common Stock in order to compensate such holder for forfeiting his or
     her existing gain under such canceled option, measured by the
     difference between the market price and the exercise price of the
     options on the date on which the options were canceled. The maximum
     term of options granted under the 1994 Plan is ten years. Options
     granted under the 1994 Plan are to be non-qualified stock options
     under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

               The Company adopted the 1995 Non-Employee Directors' Stock
     Option Plan (the "1995 Plan") in June 1995. The 1995 Plan was
     developed to attract, retain and motivate non-employee directors and
     to encourage non-employee directors to acquire an equity interest or
     increase their stock ownership in the Company. Under the 1995 Plan,
     the Compensation Committee is authorized to grant options to non-
     employee directors for up to 160,000 shares of the Company's Common
     Stock. The maximum term of options granted under the 1995 Plan is ten
     years. Options granted are to be non-qualified stock options under the
     Code. Under the 1995 Plan, non-employee directors are automatically
     granted an option to purchase 2,000 shares of Common Stock on January
     1 of each calendar year. Options were also granted pursuant to the
     1995 Plan on July 1, 1995.<PAGE>
<PAGE>

     As of March 1, 1996, the Compensation Committee has granted options to
     purchase 32,000 shares of Common Stock under the 1995 Plan. The 1995
     Plan is construed, interpreted and administered by the Compensation
     Committee.

                      SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS WITH MANAGEMENT

               On October 27, 1994, the Company entered into a severance
     agreement (the "Severance Agreement") with Mark Goldman, effective as
     of July 13, 1994. The Severance Agreement sets forth severance
     benefits which are payable if Mr. Goldman's employment is terminated
     for various reasons, including termination by him of his employment
     following a change in control of the Company, as follows (the
     "Severance Payment"):

               (i) If Mr. Goldman is terminated without cause (as defined
     in the Severance Agreement) prior to a Change in Control (as defined
     in the Severance Agreement), or if Mr. Goldman terminates his
     employment for good reason (as defined in the Severance Agreement)
     prior to a Change in Control, the Severance Agreement provides that
     the Company shall pay to Mr. Goldman a lump sum payment equal to (a)
     two times Mr. Goldman's annualized current base compensation and (b)
     the greater of (1) two times the greater of (x) the incentive
     compensation bonus (excluding stock options or shares issued pursuant
     to a stock option, restricted stock or similar plan or long-term
     incentive bonuses) paid to Mr. Goldman for the previous year's
     performance or (y) the incentive compensation bonus (excluding stock
     options or shares issued pursuant to a stock option, restricted stock
     or similar plan or long-term incentive bonuses) that would be payable
     to Mr. Goldman if performance relative to plan for the current year
     was the same as performance relative to plan year-to-date (such
     performance is to be measured by the ratio of year-to-date actual
     performance divided by year-to-date plan performance; the index(es) of
     performance shall be the same as the most recent annual cash incentive
     compensation plan approved by the Board of Directors) (the amount
     equal to the greater of the amounts described in clauses (x) and (y)
     shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Annual Bonus"); or (2) five
     hundred thousand dollars ($500,000).

               (ii) If Mr. Goldman is terminated by the Company within
     twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control (as defined in
     the Severance Agreement), or if Mr. Goldman terminates his employment
     for good reason (as defined in the Severance Agreement) within twenty-
     four (24) months following a Change in Control, the Severance
     Agreement provides that the Company shall pay to Mr. Goldman a lump
     sum payment equal to (a) three times Mr. Goldman's annualized current
     base compensation, (b) the greater of (1) three times the Annual Bonus
     or (2) five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) and (c) three times
     the car allowance in effect for Mr. Goldman at the time of termination
     and a lump sum amount equal to three times the insurance and
     maintenance cost incurred for said vehicle during Mr. Goldman's last
     full year of employment with the Corporation. Furthermore, the
     Severance Agreement provides that the Company shall continue to
     provide Mr. Goldman with certain fringe benefits for a period of three
     years following the date of Mr. Goldman's termination, subject to
     mitigation by Mr. Goldman.

               (iii) If Mr. Goldman is terminated for cause, or if Mr.
     Goldman terminates his employment other than for good reason (as
     defined in the Severance Agreement), the Severance Agreement provides
     that the Company must pay to Mr. Goldman his unpaid compensation for
     services prior to termination and the value of any accrued unused
     vacation pay to the date of termination.

               The maximum Severance Payment that the Company would have
     been required to make under the Severance Agreement if such amount

     Chief Executive Officer without an employment agreement. The Company
     has purchased a life insurance policy in a $2,000,000 face amount for
     Mr. Goldman who designated the beneficiary of such insurance policy.

     for cause the executive is entitled to continue to receive his salary
     and certain benefits (excluding bonus) for a period of up to twelve
     (12) months. These severance payments may be reduced in the event that
     the executive commences regular full-time employment during such
     period. In addition, if there is a change in control and the
     executive's employment is terminated or the executive resigns under
     certain circumstances, the executive shall instead receive a lump sum
     payment equal to a multiple of such executive's salary, bonus and
     certain benefits, plus the continuation of certain benefits for a
     specified period of time. None of the Named Executives has an
     employment agreement with the Company.
