EXHIBIT 11
COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding and the dilutive common share
equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents include
options granted under the Company's stock option plan, options granted pursuant
to an employment agreement with the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
warrants outstanding convertible into shares of common stock of the Company
using the treasury stock method.
