independent  public  accountants  for the Company with regard to the adequacy of
internal  controls and the plan of audit,  as well as reviewing the audit report
and management letter and matters concerning financial reporting, accounting and
audit procedures and policies  generally.  The Audit Committee held six meetings
during the fiscal year ending June 30,  2000.  No member of the Audit  Committee
attended  fewer than 100% of the meetings.  For the ensuing year,  the Committee
will be comprised of Messrs. Hogg, Macintyre, and Sullivan, with Mr. Hogg having

The Board of Directors has a standing  Executive  Compensation  and Stock Option
Committee  currently  chaired by Russell E. Hogg.  During the fiscal  year ended

During  the fiscal  year  ended June 30,  2000,  the  Nominating  Committee  was
composed  of  Messrs.   Hogg  and  Kamerschen.   The  Nominating  Committee  is
responsible for selection for nomination of candidates to serve on the Company's

The Board of Directors held seven meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30,

written consent of the Board of Directors. During the fiscal year ended June 30,
2000,  no director  attended  fewer than 100% of the  aggregate of (i) the total
number of  meetings  of the  Board of  Directors  and (ii) the  total  number of
meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which each director
served.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, each director who is not an employee
of the Company  received an annual  retainer of $20,000 and a fee of $10,000 for
attending  all board and  committee  meetings held during the year. In addition,
each committee  chairperson  received an annual fee of $3,000. All directors are
reimbursed for travel and other expenses incurred in attending such meetings. In
connection  with his election as Chairman of the Board in May, 1997, the Company
agreed to pay Mr.  Hogg the  following  additional  compensation  for serving as
Chairman:  (i) during each year of service in such capacity, a consulting fee of
$1,500 per each day of work on Company  business,  with a maximum cap of $50,000
for the year; (ii) a grant of non-statutory stock options covering 30,000 shares
with an exercise price of $6.00 per share,  granted as of Mr. Hogg's election in
June 1997,  pursuant to the Company's Option Plan, vesting ratably over a period
of four years from the date of grant and (iii)  additional  non-statutory  stock
option grants,  each covering 5,000 shares,  in each of the years 1998 and 1999,
and for the year 2000  vesting  over a period of four (4) years from the date of
grant.

All  non-employee  directors are eligible to  participate  in the Company's 1995
Director Option Plan (the "1995 Director Plan"). The 1995 Director Plan provides
that on each  October  1,  after the  completion  of one year of  service,  each
eligible  director  will be entitled  to receive an option for 10,000  shares of
Common  Stock at an exercise  price equal to the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the date of grant.  Each option  granted  under the 1995  Director Plan
becomes  exercisable  at the  rate  of 25%  per  year  commencing  on the  first
anniversary  of the date of grant.  During the fiscal year ended June 30,  2000,
Mr. Hogg was the only eligible  director to receive a grant of options  covering
10,000  shares of  Common  Stock  with an  exercise  price of $1.91  per  share,
representing  the closing  price of the  Company's  stock as of October 2, 2000,
pursuant to the terms of the 1995 Director Plan.



                                       5

The  shareholders  at the 1997  Annual  Meeting  approved  a  proposal  to grant
non-employee directors the ability to substitute  non-statutory options for cash
fees that reduced the cash cost to the Company  associated with  compensation of
its non-employee directors.  The proposal provided that such options (unlike the
annual grants) would not expire upon  termination  of a non-employee  director's
board  service,  but would  continue in effect for a term of five years from the
date of grant.  The plan  requires that each  non-employee  director must make a
semi-annual  irrevocable  election  prior to April 1 and October 1 (the  "Option
Election  Dates") of each year to  participate in this feature for the six month
period following each Option Election Date. Options granted in lieu of cash fees
are granted at the rate of $2.00 in option  value  (using  present  value of the
grant at date of grant under the  Black-Scholes  option  pricing model) for each
$1.00 of cash  director's  fees  which  would  otherwise  be  paid,  and have an
exercise  price equal to the fair market value of the Company's  Common Stock on
the Option Election Date of each semi-annual period in question,  exercisable in
increments  of 25% per year for a term of five years.  During  fiscal year 2000,
under the stock-in-lieu of compensation provisions, Mr. More received options to
purchase  10,030  shares with an exercise  price of $5.50.  The  amendment  also
provided for immediate  vesting of all  unexercisable  options granted under the
1995 Director Plan upon the occurrence of certain  events  resulting in a change
in control of the Company.

SECTION 16(A) COMPLIANCE

Section  16(a) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  (the  "Exchange  Act")
requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten
percent  of a  registered  class of the  Company's  equity  securities,  to file
reports of ownership and changes in ownership  with the  Securities and Exchange
Commission  (the  "SEC").  Officers,  directors  and  greater  than  ten-percent
shareholders  are required by SEC  regulation to furnish the Company with copies
of all Section  16(a) forms they file.  Based solely on its review of the copies
of such forms received by it, or written  representations from certain reporting
persons that no Forms 5 were required for those  persons,  the Company  believes
that,  during the  fiscal  year ended  June 30,  2000,  all filing  requirements
applicable to its officers,  directors,  and greater than ten-percent beneficial
owners were complied with.

     circumstances  set forth in the Stock  Option Plan,  including  retirement,
     termination in the event of a change in control, death or disability.
