(1) No SAR's were granted in 1995. Individual option grants become
exercisable in installments over a three year period subject to the attainment
of certain Company financial performance standards. Options can become
immediately exercisable upon the occurrence of certain corporate events,
including a change in control of the Company or delivery of written notice of a
stockholder's meeting to consider a merger, sale of assets or similar
reorganization. All options granted in 1995 have ten year terms.
(2) All grants were made at or above 100% of fair market value as of
the date of grant.
(3) The dollar amounts under these columns are the result of calculations
using the February 3, 1996 closing market price of $2.94 per share at the 5% and
10% rates set by the SEC and therefore are not intended to forecast possible
future appreciation, if any, of the Company's stock price. No gain to optionees
is possible without an increase in stock price, which will benefit all
shareholders commensurately.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Under rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Company is required to provide certain data and information regarding the
compensation and benefits provided to the Company's Chief Executive Officer
("CEO") and the four other most highly compensated executive officers during
Fiscal 1995. The disclosure requirements for these individuals (the "named
executive officers") includes the use of tables and a report explaining the
rationale and considerations regarding the executive compensation decisions
affecting those individuals. In fulfillment of these requirements, the
Compensation Committee consisting of Mr. Burden and Mr. Feltenstein has
prepared the following report. The Compensation Committee is composed entirely
of directors who have never been employees of the Company.
COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY
This report reflects the Company's compensation philosophy as endorsed by
the Board of Directors and the Committee and resulting actions taken by the
Company. With regard to compensation actions affecting the CEO Mr. Pennacchio,
the Committee acts as the approving body.
Executive compensation has been designed to:
- Support a pay for performance policy that provides compensation amounts
based both on overall corporate results and individual performance;
- Motivate executives to achieve business initiatives and reward them for
their achievement;
- Provide total compensation opportunities which allow the Company to
compete for and retain talented results oriented executives who will contribute
to the Company's short-term and long-term success; and
- Align the interests of executives with the long-term interests of
stockholders through award opportunities based on stock performance.
At present, executive compensation is comprised of base salary, annual
bonus cash incentive opportunities based on subjective analysis, and long-term
incentive opportunities in the form of grants of stock options.
As an executive's level of responsibility increases, a greater portion of
his or her potential total compensation opportunity is generally based on
performance incentives and less on base salary, causing greater variability in
the individual's absolute compensation level from year-to-year. Incentive
compensation (all pay other than base salary) comprises a significant
compensation opportunity and is tied to the Company's short term earnings and
long term stock performance.
In reviewing or administering the individual elements of executive
compensation, the Company and the Committee strive to balance short and
long-term incentive objectives and utilize prudent judgment in reviewing
performance matters and incentive payments. While the Company has not yet
established a policy with respect to qualifying compensation paid to executive
officers for deductibility under new Internal Revenue Code provisions relating
to over $1 million compensation packages, the Company is continuing to review
the regulations and will generally seek to structure compensation to provide for
maximum deductibility, recognizing that there may be circumstances in which the
Company's interests are best served otherwise.
8
<PAGE> 9
ANNUAL COMPENSATION PROGRAM
Annual total cash compensation for senior management consists of base
salary and discretionary bonuses of up to 40% of base salary. Accordingly,
total annual cash compensation varies each year based on achievement of Company
performance and profitability and a subjective evaluation of each executive's
contribution to that performance. Base salaries for the named executive
officers are set forth in employment agreements and were not changed in Fiscal
1995.
No discretionary bonuses were paid in Fiscal 1995.
LONG-TERM INCENTIVES -- STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company's Stock Option Plan is designed to align a significant portion
of the named executive compensation with shareholder interests. In determining
the number of options to be awarded, the amount and terms of options previously
granted are generally not considered. The stock options are a right to
purchase shares of common stock generally over a ten-year period at the fair
market value per share as of the date the option is granted and vesting in
increments over a three year period, so the options provide value to the
recipient only when the stock price increases above the option grant price and
the option has become exercisable. The vesting and exercisability of options
granted to the named executives are subject to the Company achieving certain
profitability levels in each year.
The Committee has typically granted stock options on an annual basis to
executive officers pursuant to shareholder approved plans as well as options at
the time an executive commences employment. The Committee granted options in
Fiscal 1995 to the named executives as set forth on page 6 of this filing.
The particular allocation for each person including the CEO was determined in
relation to management level and a subjective assessment of individual
performance.
SUBMITTED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE COMPANY'S
BOARD OF DIRECTORS: JOHN BURDEN AND SIDNEY FELTENSTEIN.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
The Company has from time to time engaged the services of Dr. Anthony
Armstrong, an employee of Delheim & Worcester, a U.K. based international
finance company, to perform certain financial consulting services. Dr.
Armstrong's services have consisted primarily of preparing merchandising and
inventory reports and sales sensitivity analyses. Mr. Arguetty serves as a
director to and is principal shareholder of Delheim & Worcester. During the
fiscal year ended February 3, 1996, fees paid by the Company to Delheim &
Worcester totalled

$201,966. The Company believes that the terms of the arrangement with Delheim &
Worcester are no less favorable than those that could be obtained from an
unaffiliated third party for comparable services.
Mr. Epstein has served as a financial and investment banking consultant to
the Company since February 1995. Under his present consulting arrangement which
is terminable at will by either party, Mr. Epstein receives $5,000 each month
and reimbursement of reasonable expenses. During the fiscal year ended February
3, 1996, Mr. Epstein received a total of $90,000 for his consulting services.
Effective as of the time that Mr. Arguetty was appointed the Co-Chairman
of the Board in May 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with Mr.
Arguetty to pay him $150,000 annually and to reimburse him for his reasonable
expenses in performing his duties. On August 11, 1995, Mr. Arguetty was
granted options to purchase 90,000 shares at a price of $2.4375 per share,
which was the fair market value of such shares on such date. The options
generally become vested and exercisable in equal installments as of the first
three fiscal year ends after the date of grant; provided that no vesting shall
occur unless certain goals as to Company performance for the relevent fiscal
years are achieved.
The Company has engaged Mr. Edelstein to perform certain consulting
services for the Company, primarily relating to retail expansion. Mr.
Edelstein is to be paid $2,500 per day for his services, subject to an annual
cap of $150,000. During the fiscal year ended February 3, 1996, Mr. Edelstein
received a total of $128,750 for his consulting services. On May 4, 1995, Mr.
Edelstein was granted options under the Company's Stock Option Plan to purchase
270,000 common shares at a price of $2.63 per share, which was the fair market
value of such shares on such date. On August 11, 1995, Mr. Edelstein was
granted options to purchase 72,000 shares at a price of $2.4375 per share,
which was the fair market value of such shares on such date. The options
generally become vested and exercisable in equal installments as of the first
three fiscal year ends after the date of grant, provided that the consulting
arrangement remains in effect, and provided, further, that no vesting shall
occur unless certain goals as to Company performance for the relevant fiscal
years are achieved. The Company believes that the terms of the arrangement
with Mr. Edelstein are no less favorable than those that could be obtained from
an unaffiliated third party for comparable services.
