Compensation of Directors
No fees are paid to Directors of the Company who are also
officers or employees of the Company for their services as members of
the Board of Directors. Harry Shuster and Ivan Berkowitz both of whom
resigned as Board of Director members on July 22, 1997 had been issued
five year stock options to acquire 25,000 shares at an exercise price
of $2.00 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 and paid $250 for
work on the audit committee. The Company reimbursed all Directors for
reasonable travel and lodging expenses incurred in attending meetings
of the Board of Directors.
Concurrently with his election as a Director and Chairman of the
Board of the Company on July 22, 1997, Christopher T. Dahl was
appointed the Company's President. Mr. Dahl presently receives an
annual salary of $75,000 for his services as President.
On August 1, 1997 the Company entered into an independent
contractor agreement with William Cameron, a Director of the Company.
Under the agreement Mr. Cameron will be providing non-exclusive
services to the Company including, without limitation, the initiation,
promotion, development and maintenance of business and investment
contacts relating to increasing the Company's sales , marketing and
investment opportunities. The contract is at will and compensation
under the contract is $3,000 for every month that it is in force.
COMPENSATION REPORT
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, the Company did
not have a Compensation Committee and therefore, the entire Board acted
on the matters that would have been acted on by Compensation Committee.
The Compensation Report set forth below described the compensation
policies of the Board of Directors for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1997 and reflects the salaries and bonuses paid during that fiscal
year. The current Board of Directors assumed their positions in July
1997 and established a Compensation Committee in October 1997.
Accordingly, the policies described below may not reflect the policies
of the Compensation Committee or the current Board of Directors. The
Compensation Report shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by
any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement
into any filing under the Securities Act 1933 or the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent that the Company
specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not
otherwise be deemed filed under such act.
Overview and Philosophy
The Board of Directors establishes the general compensation
policies of the Company, determines the compensation levels for the
Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and other senior Company officers, and
administers and/or provides oversight on all short-term (annual)
incentive plans, all long-term incentive plans, including the Stock
Option Plan, and approves any grants of stock options, stock and/or
stock warrants to Company officers.
The Company applies a consistent philosophy to compensation
for all employees, including the officers. This philosophy is based
upon the premise that the achievements of the Company result from the
coordinated efforts of all individuals working toward common, defined
objectives. The Company strives to attain these objectives through
teamwork that is focused upon meeting the expectations of customers and
stockholders.

Compensation Policy
The Company's compensation policy is to ensure that a
substantial portion of potential aggregate annual compensation be
contingent upon the performance of the Company. The goals of the
compensation programs are to align compensation with performance and to
enable the Company to attract, retain and reward personnel who
contribute to the success of the Company. The Company's compensation
program for officers is based on the same guidelines that apply to all
Company employees.
The Company is committed to providing incentive opportunities
that, together with base salaries (where appropriate), provide for
competitive and equitable total cash compensation opportunities.
Additionally, future base salary increases or incentive pay
opportunities are directly linked to the achievement of key financial
objectives.
The variable compensation plans focus respective employees on
the immediate objectives of the business and their job; encourage
employees to work together as a team to achieve Company success; and,
recognize and reward the sustained contribution of outstanding
performers within the Company.
Components of Compensation
The Company has compensation programs that include both cash
and equity components. The Board has established base salary, short and
long-term incentive compensation mix targets for each officer and for
all employees, where applicable, of the Company. The compensation mix
targets define the desired percentage for each component of total
compensation.
With respect to cash compensation for officers, the Company
sets base salaries and target incentive opportunities for each officer
by reviewing the cash compensation provided to comparable positions and
through assessing the internal equity of cash compensation
opportunities based on position responsibilities, the performance of
each incumbent, and overall levels of contribution to the Company. When
considering competitive pay practices, the Board reviews compensation
levels in both the entertainment industry and general industry at firms
comparable in size and revenue to the Company.
With regard to equity-based compensation for officers, the
Company considered and granted stock options for the reported year.
Stock option grants were based on relative position, responsibilities
and/or historical and expected contribution to the Company.
Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer
Mr. Bibicoff has been Chief Executive Officer of the Company
since January 19, 1996. Based on a thorough review, it was determined
that Mr. Bibicoff's base salary was within a competitive range of pay,
as compared with companies of similar size and scope. In determining
Mr. Bibicoff's compensation, the Board considered various factors
particularly Mr. Bibicoff's guidance in the Company=s turnaround. See
"Employment Agreements" herein.
The Board of Directors (at June 30, 1997):
Harvey Bibicoff
Ivan Berkowitz
Harry Shuster
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, the Company had no
Compensation Committee or other Board Committee performing equivalent
functions. Mr. Bibicoff, the Company=s Chief Executive Officer, served
as a Director of the Company until July 22, 1997 and participated in
deliberations of the Board concerning the compensation of all executive
officers other than himself.

Company, which contract expires on December 31, 1998. Under the

Officer upon furnishing ten days written notice. Commencing September 20,
1997, Mr. Bibicoff also obtained the right to resign his obligations and
authority as the Company's Chief Executive Officer upon furnishing ten days
written notice. Upon either event Mr. Bibicoff would continue to receive
all remuneration due him for the remaining term of the agreement. On

written notice to resign his obligations and authority as the Company's
Chief Executive Officer.
