         There are no family relationships between any of the nominees and
executive officers of the Company. There are no arrangements or understandings
between any director and any other person pursuant to which any of the nominees
has been nominated.

SECTION 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
         Securities and Exchange Commission Rules under Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 require the Company's officers and directors,
and persons who own more than 10% 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 "Commission") and the National
Association of Securities Dealers and to furnish the Company with copies of all
Section 16(a) forms they file.


<PAGE>   3

         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 1996 fiscal
year, all filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors, and
greater-than-10% beneficial owners were complied with on a timely basis.

compensation earned by the Company's chief executive officers from 1994 to 1996

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

         Mr. Christman, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, served as a 
member of the Executive Compensation Committee in 1996. He does not participate
in any discussions or decisions regarding his own compensation.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

         Three of the five director nominees are not employees of the Company.
In order to attract and retain highly qualified independent directors through
an investment interest in the Company's future success, the Company enacted in
l985 a non-qualified Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the
"Director's Plan").

         Each director eligible under the Directors Plan annually receives an
option to purchase 9,000 shares of Common stock. Typically options are granted
on the first business day of each calendar year, at an option exercise price
per share equivalent to a price such that the aggregate fair market value on
the date of grant for all shares subject to the options exceeds the aggregate
option exercise price by the amount of $l0,000. Options granted under the
Director's Plan are immediately exercisable and expire five years from the date
of grant.

         On January 1, 1997 options were granted to Directors Gray and
Glickstein for the purchase of 9,000 shares each at a purchase price of $.01
per share. Since the price of the stock was $.5938 on January 2, 1997, the
Company granted an additional 8,130 shares to each eligible director at a
purchase price of $.01 per share so that the market value of all options
granted in 1997 exceeded the option exercise price by $10,000.

         Directors who are full-time employees of the Company receive $100 for
each Board of Directors meeting attended. Directors who are not employees of
the Company receive a fee of $500 for each Board of Directors meeting attended.
No fees are awarded directors for attendance at meetings of the Audit or
Executive Compensation Committees of the Board of Directors.

         The Company has entered into a one-year consulting agreement with Mr.
Martin, a director of the Company, in connection with his retirement as an
officer of the Company, for a retainer of $13,500 and continued medical and
other insurance benefits. Under the consulting agreement, Mr. Martin also
agreed not to take certain actions to compete with the Company or to interfere
with its 


<PAGE>   5

business relationships for a period of two years after termination of
the consulting agreement. If the consulting agreement is terminated by the
Company "without cause" (as defined in such agreement), the Company must pay
the balance of any consulting fee for the remaining term of the agreement.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

         In December 1996, the Company extended until June 19, 1998 its
employment agreement with Lewis E. Christman, Jr., providing for continued base
compensation of $130,000 per year, in addition to medical, disability and other
benefits in accordance with Company policy, such stock options as may be
granted by the Board of Directors from time to time and a bi-annual automobile
allowance. The agreement further provides that Mr. Christman will be entitled
to receive, in a lump sum, the salary due for the remaining term of the
agreement upon the Company's termination of his employment "without cause" (as
defined in such agreement).
