</TABLE>
(1) Effective April 1, 1996, the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors set Mr. Santry's annual base salary at $350,000. Mr. Santry is
also entitled to receive bonus compensation up to $125,000 upon the
achievement of certain financial objectives for the 1997 fiscal year.
(2) Mr. Bijou was paid $150,000, $125,000 and $175,000 in bonus compensation
in fiscal 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, pursuant to the achievement
of certain operating results at ATC for the 1995, 1994 and 1993 calendar
years.
(3) In 1994 Mr. Bijou was granted fully vested options to purchase 10% of the
common stock of Advanced Telemarketing Corporation at an option price of
$.01 per share. In management's opinion, the option price approximated
the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. With such grant
Mr. Bijou held fully vested options to purchase 15% of the common stock
of Advanced Telemarketing Corporation. In March 1995, Mr. Bijou
surrendered such options in exchange for stock options to purchase a
total of 2,410,880 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $0.8125 per
share, the market price at the date of grant. The options granted became
fully exercisable on August 1, 1995 and are exercisable for ten years
from the date of grant.
(4) Mr. Marinaro's compensation is derived from commissions earned on
revenues at Advanced Telemarketing Corporation. Mr. Marinaro serves as
an account representative for Advanced Telemarketing Corporation's
largest customer. His compensation is derived from commissions earned on
revenues generated by such customer. Because Mr. Marinaro is not an
officer or director of the
Page 4
<PAGE> 5
Company and therefore does not participate in policy making decisions for
the Company, the Company disclaims that Mr. Marinaro is an "executive
officer" of the Company.
(5) In February 1993 the Company's shareholders approved the the Company's
1992 Stock Option Plan (the "1992 Plan") to grant options to purchase up
to 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock to key employees, officers, and
directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. Options may be granted at
any time prior to December 11, 2002. In 1996, Mr. Santry was granted
950,000 options to purchase shares at the market price on the date of
grant pursuant to the 1992 Plan. To date no options have been granted
pursuant to the 1992 Plan to other executive officers named in the table
above. In March 1995, the Company's Board of Directors approved the
Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan") to grant options to
purchase up to 2,410,880 shares of Common Stock to key employees of the
Company and its subsidiaries. Options to purchase all 2,410,880 shares
were then granted to Mr. Bijou. See also Note 3 above.
Advanced Telemarketing Corporation and Thomas Bijou are parties to an
employment agreement which provides for an employment term through December
31,1997 at an annual base salary of $262,500. The employment agreement also
contains confidentiality and non-competition provisions.
