PART I
------
Item 1. Description of Business
- ------- -----------------------
General
- -------
Servotronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Registrant"
or the "Company") design, manufacture and market advanced technology products
consisting primarily of control components and consumer products consisting of
knives, various types of cutlery and small household tools.
The Registrant was incorporated in New York in 1959. In 1972, the
Registrant was merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary organized under the laws
of the State of Delaware, thereby changing the Registrant's state of
incorporation from New York to Delaware.
Products
- --------
Advanced Technology Products
----------------------------
The Registrant designs, manufactures and markets a variety of
servo-control components which convert an electrical current into a mechanical
force or movement and other related products. The principal servo-control
components produced include torque motors, electromagnetic actuators,
proportional solenoids, hydraulic valves, pneumatic valves and similar devices,
all of which perform the same general function. These are sold principally to
the commercial, aerospace, missile, aircraft and government related industries.
To fill most of its orders for components, the Registrant must either
modify a catalog model or design a new item in order to satisfy the customer's
particular requirements. The Registrant also produces unique products based on
specifications provided by its customers. During 1994, the Registrant began
production under long-term contracts.
The Registrant also produces metallic seals of various cross-sectional
configurations. These seals fit between two surfaces, usually metal, to
produce a more secure and leak-proof joint. They are generally designed for
use under circumstances in which more conventional seals and gaskets do not
perform adequately, such as exposure to extremes of temperature, high
pressures, vacuums, radiation or corrosive atmospheres. The Registrant
manufactures these seals to close tolerances from standard and special alloy
steels. Ductile coatings are often applied to the seals in order to increase
their effectiveness.
- 2 -
<PAGE> 3
From time to time, the Registrant has also produced other products of
its own and/or of a given design to meet customers' requirements.
The Registrant also designs and/or manufactures for its own use custom
precision metal stampings. These stampings are produced from precision single
stage and/or progressive dies which are also designed and manufactured by the
Registrant. The progressive die performs, in a series of stages in one die,
the stamping of a metal piece which could otherwise require stamping by a
number of separate dies.
Consumer Products
-----------------
The Registrant designs, manufactures and sells a variety of cutlery
products. These products include a wide range of knives such as steak,
carving, bread, butcher and paring knives for household use and for use in
restaurants, government installations, institutions and private industry and
pocket and other types of knives for hunting, fishing and camping. The
Registrant also produces and markets other cutlery items such as carving forks,
sharpeners and various specialty tools such as putty knives, linoleum sheet
cutters and field knives. The Registrant manufactures its cutlery products
from stainless or high carbon steel in numerous styles, designs, models and
sizes. Substantially all of the Registrant's cutlery and cutlery related
products are intended for the medium to premium priced markets.
The Registrant sells many of its cutlery products under its own brand
names including "Old Hickory" and "Queen."
Sales, Marketing and Distribution
- ---------------------------------
Advanced Technology Products
----------------------------
The Registrant's advanced technology products are marketed throughout
the United States and are essentially nonseasonal in nature. These products
are sold to the United States Government, government prime contractors and
commercial manufacturers and end users. Sales are made primarily by the
Registrant's professional staff.
During the Registrant's last fiscal year, sales of advanced technology
products pursuant to subcontracts with prime or subcontractors for various
branches of the United States Government or pursuant to prime contracts
directly with the government accounted for approximately 20% of the
Registrant's total sales. If the Registrant were deemed to be unqualified by
the United States
- 3 -
<PAGE> 4
Government as a contractor or subcontractor, it would lose approximately 39% of
its sales of advanced technology products. Sales of advanced technology
products to the AlliedSignal Corporation and several of its subsidiaries and/or
divisions exceeded 10% of Registrants' total sales in 1995 and 1994, as did
sales to United Technologies through several of its subsidiaries and/or
divisions in 1995 and with Martin Marietta Corporation in 1994. No other single
customer represented more than 10% of the Company's sales in any of these years.
The Registrant's prime contracts and subcontracts with the Government
are subject to termination for the convenience of the Government. In the event
of such termination, the Registrant is ordinarily entitled to receive payment
for its costs and profits on work done prior to termination. Since the
inception of the Registrant's business, less than 1% of its government
contracts have been terminated for convenience.
Consumer Products
- -----------------
The Registrant's consumer products are marketed throughout the United
States. Consumer sales are moderately seasonal. Sales are to hardware,
supermarket, variety, department, discount, gift and drug stores. The
Registrant also sells its cutlery products (principally machetes, survival
knives and kitchen knives) to various branches of the United States Government.
The Registrant sells its products through its own sales personnel and through
independent manufacturers' representatives.
Industry Segments
- -----------------
Industry segment information is presented in Note 11 of the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.
Patents
- -------
In the view of management, the Registrant's competitive position is not
dependent on patent protection. The Registrant has rights under a number of
patents.
Research Activities
- -------------------
The amount spent by the Registrant in research and development
activities during its
- 4 -
<PAGE> 5
1995 and 1994 fiscal years was not significant.
Environmental Compliance
- ------------------------
The Registrant does not anticipate that the cost of compliance with
current environmental laws will be material.
Manufacturing
- -------------
The Registrant manufactures its consumer products in Franklinville, New
York and Titusville, Pennsylvania and its advanced technology products in Elma,
New York.
Raw Materials and Other Supplies
- --------------------------------
The Registrant purchases raw materials and certain components for its
products from outside vendors. The Registrant is not generally dependent upon
a single source of supply for any raw material or component used in its
operations.
Competition
- -----------
Although no reliable industry statistics are available to enable the
Registrant to determine accurately its relative competitive position with
respect to any of its products, the Registrant believes that it is a
significant factor with respect to certain of its servo-control components.
The Registrant's share of the overall cutlery market is not significant.
The Registrant encounters active competition with respect to its
products from numerous companies, many of which are larger than it in terms of
manufacturing capacity, financial resources and marketing organization. Its
principal competitors vary depending upon the customer and/or the products
involved. The Registrant believes that it competes primarily with more than 20
companies with respect to its consumer products, in addition to foreign
imports. To the Registrant's knowledge, its principal competitors with regard
to cutlery include ECKO Housewares, Inc., Russell Harrington Cutlery, Inc., W.
R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company, Imperial Schrade Corporation and Camillus
Cutlery Company.
- 5 -
<PAGE> 6
The Registrant has many different competitors with respect to
servo-control components because of the nature of that business and the fact
that these products also face competition from other types of control
components which, at times, can accomplish the desired result.
The Registrant markets most of its products throughout the United
States. The Registrant believes that it competes in marketing its consumer
products primarily on the basis of price, quality and delivery, and its control
products primarily on the basis of operating performance, adherence to rigid
specifications, quality, price and delivery.
Employees
- ---------
The Registrant at December 31, 1995 had approximately 251 employees of
which approximately 234 are full time. In excess of 80% of its employees are
engaged in production, inspection, packaging or shipping activities. The
balance are engaged in executive, engineering, administrative, clerical or
sales capacities.
The Registrant considers its relationship with its employees to be good
and the Registrant has never experienced a significant labor work stoppage.
Item 2. Description of Properties
- ------- -------------------------
The Registrant's executive offices are located on premises leased by the
Registrant at 1110 Maple Street, Elma, a suburb of Buffalo, New York. The
Registrant owns and/or leases real property as set forth in the following

<PAGE> 7
During 1994, the Registrant relocated it's corporate
headquarters/Advance Technology operation to a new facility in Elma, New York.
The Registrant leases approximately 38.4 acres of land and a facility from a
local industrial development agency. The lease is accounted for as a capital
lease and entitles the Registrant to purchase the property at a nominal amount
at the end of the lease term. The former corporate headquarters/Advanced
Technology facility in Cheektowaga, New York is being marketed.
See the consolidated financial statements, including Note 8 thereto, for
further information with respect to the Registrant's lease commitments.
During the fourth quarter of 1994, a fire occurred at one of the
Registrant's Titusville, Pennsylvania buildings. As a result, certain consumer
products manufacturing operations are temporarily being performed at the
Registrant's Cheektowaga, New York facility. Property damaged by the fire and
other related losses are covered by the Registrant's insurance policies. See
further discussion in Item 6 (Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
Operation) and Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements.
The Registrant possesses modern precision manufacturing and testing
equipment suitable for the development, manufacture, assembly and testing of
its high technology products. The Registrant designs and makes substantially
all of the tools, dies, jigs and specialized testing equipment necessary for
the production of the high technology products. The Registrant also possesses
automatic and semi-automatic grinders, tumblers, presses and miscellaneous
metal and wood finishing machinery and equipment for use in the manufacture of
consumer products.

Management Discussion
- ---------------------
During the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the comparable period
ended December 31, 1994, approximately 23% and 32%, respectively, of the
Company's revenues were derived from contracts with agencies of the U.S.
Government or their prime contractors. The Company's business is performed
under fixed price contracts. It is noted that the many uncertainties in
today's global economy, the growth of the national deficit and the difficulty in
predicting defense appropriations (both actual and proposed) preclude any
guarantees or even assurances that current programs will be continued or that
programs in the prototype stages will ultimately result in production
applications. It is because of volatile uncertainties and because
adverse occurrences may not be counterbalanced with new programs or otherwise
that cyclical downturns in operational performances are realistic expectations.
See also Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for information
concerning business segment operating results.
Results of Operations - Year 1995 as Compared to 1994
- -----------------------------------------------------
The Company's consolidated results of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1995 showed an approximate 3.5% increase in net sales and a
decrease in net income of approximately 58.8% when compared to the year ended
December 31, 1994. The overall increase in sales is due to increased shipments
at the Advanced Technology operations offset by a decrease in sales at the
Consumer Product operations because of a decrease in customer demands. The
decrease in profit is primarily attributable to lower margins, due to expensing
of certain start-up costs, and product mix.
The respective amounts of funded and unfunded sales backlog at March 21,
1996 and 1995 for the Advanced Technology Group (ATG) were approximately
$31,597,000 and $23,649,000 of which $25,648,000 and $16,487,000 were unfunded
in the respective comparable periods. Approximately $22,533,000 of the March
21, 1996 unfunded backlog is for product deliveries beyond 1999. The unfunded
portion of the backlog is based on the Company's customers' estimated
quantities for multi-year agreements for which the Company has not received
firm orders.
- 10 -
<PAGE> 11
Operating profit as a percentage of net sales for the year ended
December 31, 1995 decreased to 6.7% from 9.9% as reported for the year ended
December 31, 1994. The decrease in operating profit as a percentage of net
sales is as described above. During the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company
suffered damages caused by a fire at one if its subsidiaries. The Company
maintained property and business interruption insurance and during 1995 has
recognized approximately $130,000 as miscellaneous income and $150,000 as
reductions of expenses incurred for losses due to business interruption.
Selling, general and administrative costs decreased for the year ended
December 31, 1995 primarily because of moving costs incurred and expensed in
1994 which were not applicable in 1995. Interest expense decreased because of
obtaining long-term financing at lower interest rates. Depreciation expense for
the period primarily increased as a result of the move to the Company's new
corporate headquarters/Advanced Technology facility (see discussion under
liquidity on Capital Resources.)
Income taxes for the year ended December 31, 1995 decreased as a
percentage of income before taxes when compared to the year ended December 31,
1994 due primarily to variable state income tax rates and changes made by the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1994.
Results of Operations - Year 1994 as Compared to 1993
- -----------------------------------------------------
The Company's consolidated results of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1994 showed an approximate 26.6% increase in net sales and a
decrease in net income of approximately 25.8% when compared to the year ended
December 31, 1993. The increase in sales occurred in both the Advanced
Technology and Consumer Products operations. Increased sales at the Advanced
Technology operations is primarily due to revenue recognized under long-term
contracts and increased shipments. Increased sales at the Consumer Products
operations is due to increased shipments and price increases. The decrease in
profit is primarily attributable to lower margins, product mix, higher interest
and depreciation, and expenses associated with the move of the Advanced
Technology Operation to a new facility, partially offset by the gain from an
involuntary property conversion due to a fire at the Company's Titusville,
Pennsylvania Consumer Products operation and profit contribution from
production under new long-term contracts. The respective amounts of funded and
unfunded sales backlog at December 31, 1994 and 1993 for the Advanced
Technology Group (ATG) were approximately $6,639,000 of funded and $16,487,000
of unfunded and approximately $5,567,000 of funded and $13,598,000 of unfunded.
Approximately $9,578,000 of the December 31, 1994 of unfunded backlog is for
product deliveries beyond 1998. The unfunded portion of the backlog is based
on the Company's customers' estimated quantities for multi-year agreements for
which the Company has not received firm orders.
- 11 -
<PAGE> 12
Operating profit as a percentage of net sales for the year ended
December 31, 1994 decreased to 9.9% from 12.7% as reported for the year ended
December 31, 1993. The fluctuations in operating profit as a percentage of net
sales is a result of lower margins and product mix, partially offset by the
gain from an involuntary conversion due to a fire at the Company's Titusville,
Pennsylvania Cutlery operation and profit contributions from production under
new long-term contracts, and as described above.
Selling, general and administrative costs increased for the year-ended
December 31, 1994 due to an increase in sales and professional costs. Further,
interest expense and depreciation expense for the same period increased as a
result of an increase in institutional debt and as a result of the move to the
Company's new corporate headquarters/Advanced Technology facility. (See
discussion under liquidity and Capital Resources.)
Income taxes for the year ended December 31, 1994 increased as a
percentage of income before taxes when compared to the year ended December 31,
1993 due primarily to variable state income tax rates changes made by the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Certain contracts of the Advanced Technology Group require development
and engineering costs in addition to hardware and the maintenance of inventory
for replacement and/or overhaul. The replacement and/or overhaul units are
billed at the time of shipment. The inventories at December 31, 1995 include
costs associated with the initiation and maintenance of certain programs and
costs in anticipation of increased demands upon the Company to support new
programs and the request of customers' for shorter production lead-time.
During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company expended $126,000
on capital expenditure. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company
expended $1,607,000 on
- 12 -
<PAGE> 13
capital expenditures. The Company moved into its new corporate
headquarters/Advanced Technology facility during 1994 and as previously noted
has an agreement with a government agency to lease approximately 38 acres of
land and facility in Elma, New York. The financing of certain construction and
related costs of the new facility is government assisted. Nonetheless, the new
facility has resulted in an increase in long-term debt and a substantial
increase in depreciation expense. This facility is approximately 82,000 square
feet and it is anticipated that this new facility will enable the Company to
improve its competitive position and enhance its ability to meet customer needs.
The Company also has a $1,000,000 line of credit at December 31, 1995 on which
no amount is outstanding at December 31, 1995.
There are no material commitments for capital expenditures at December
31, 1995.
In 1991, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the purchase by the
Company of up to 250,000 additional shares of its common stock in open and
privately negotiated transactions for a total authorized purchase of up to
350,000 shares, of which 257,317 shares have been purchased. No shares were
purchased in 1995.

financial position of Servotronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31,
1995 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
two years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable

supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
1. Summary of significant accounting policies
------------------------------------------
The principal accounting policies of Servotronics, Inc. (the Company)
and subsidiaries are as follows:
Principles of consolidation
---------------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Servotronics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Revenue recognition
-------------------
The Company incurred costs for certain contracts which are long term.
These contracts are accounted for under the percentage of completion
method (cost-to-cost) which recognizes revenue as the work progresses
towards completion. Revenues on the remaining contracts are recognized
when the terms of purchase orders are met.
Included in accounts receivable is $43,000 of unbilled revenues which
represents revenue earned under the percentage of completion method
(cost-to-cost) not yet billable under the terms of the contracts.
Included in other accrued liabilities is $200,000 of deferred revenue
which represents billings under the terms of the contracts in excess of
revenue earned under the percentage of completion method.
Inventories
-----------
Inventories are stated generally at the lower of standard cost, which
approximates actual cost (first-in, first-out), or market.
Property, plant and equipment
-----------------------------
Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost; expenditures for new
facilities and equipment and expenditures which substantially increase
the useful lives of existing plant and equipment are capitalized;
expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged directly to cost or
expenses as incurred. The cost of property, plant and equipment is
offset by a
F6
<PAGE> 26
$199,000 capital grant received in 1994 and grants received in 1995
totaling $300,000. Upon retirement or disposal of properties, the
related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
respective accounts and any profit or loss on disposition is included in
income.
Depreciation is provided on the basis of estimated useful lives of
depreciable properties, primarily by the straight-line method for
financial statement purposes and by accelerated methods for tax
purposes. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of capital
lease assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable properties are
generally as follows:
Buildings and improvements 5-39 years
Machinery and equipment 5-15 years
Tooling 3-5 years
Income taxes
------------
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax
return and separate state income tax returns.
The Company follows the asset and liability approach to account for
income taxes. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of
temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of
assets and liabilities.
Employee stock ownership plan
-----------------------------
Contributions to the employee stock ownership plan are determined
annually by the Company according to plan formula.
Income per share
----------------
Income per share is based on weighted average outstanding shares of
1,511,750 for 1995 and 1,477,462 in 1994. All shares owned by the
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) which are unallocated are not
deemed to be outstanding for purposes of calculating income per share.
F7
<PAGE> 27
Use of estimates
----------------
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Significant estimates employed by management include those used in
revenue recognition, amortization of engineering and other support costs
included in inventory (See Note 2) and calculating amounts receivable
under an insurance claim (See Note 10). Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
2. Inventories

Engineering and other support costs are incurred in fulfilling certain
contracts which have a production cycle longer than one year. A portion
of these costs will therefore not be realized within one year.
During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company revised estimates on
certain contracts and the periods during which engineering and other
support costs in inventory would be amortized. The effect of the change
in these estimates was a charge to cost of sales of $200,000.

<PAGE> 29
Industrial Development Revenue Bonds were issued by a government agency
in 1994 to replace an interim construction loan related to the
construction of the Company's new headquarters/Advanced Technology
facility. Annual sinking fund payments of $170,000 commence December 1,
2000 and continue through 2013, with a final payment of $2,620,000 due
December 1, 2014. The Company has agreed to reimburse the issuer of the
letter of credit if there are draws on that letter of credit. The
Company pays the letter of credit bank an annual fee of 1% of the amount
secured thereby and pays the remarketing agent for the bonds an annual
fee of .25% of the principal amount outstanding. The Company's interest
under the facility capital lease has been pledged to secure its
obligations to the government agency, the bank and the bondholders.
The letter of credit reimbursement agreement, the unsecured term note
agreement and a secured term note contain, among other things, covenants
relative to maintenance of working capital and tangible net worth and
restrictions on capital expenditures, leases and additional borrowings.
The secured term notes are secured by certain property and equipment and
contain, among other things, covenants restricting loan proceeds for use
in the construction of the Company's new headquarters/Advanced
Technology facility.
Principal maturities of long-term debt are as follows: 1996 - $226,000;
1997 - $246,000; 1998 - $248,000; 1999 - $249,000; 2000 and thereafter
$6,147,000.
The Company also has a $1,000,000 line of credit on which there was no
amount outstanding at December 31, 1995.
5. Employee benefit plans
----------------------
Employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)
------------------------------------
Under the Company's ESOP adopted in 1985, participating employees are
awarded shares of the Company's common stock based upon salary levels
and minimum service requirements. Upon inception of the ESOP, the
Company borrowed $2,000,000 from a bank and lent the proceeds to the
trust established under the ESOP to purchase shares of the Company's
common stock. The Company's loan to the trust is at an interest rate
approximating the prime
F10
<PAGE> 30
rate and is repayable to the Company over a 40-year term ending in
December 2024. During 1987 and 1988, the Company loaned an additional
$1,942,000 to the trust under terms similar to the Company's original
loan. Each year the Company makes contributions to the trust which the
plan's trustees use to repay the principal and interest due the Company
under the trust loan agreement. Shares held by the trust are allocated
in the aggregate to participating employees in proportion to the amount
of the loan repayment made by the trust to the Company. Since inception
of the ESOP, approximately 271,000 shares have been allocated, exclusive
of shares distributed to ESOP participants. At December 31, 1995 and
1994, approximately 644,000 and 677,000 shares, respectively, purchased
by the ESOP remain unallocated, after adjustment for the 6% stock
dividend declared in 1995.
Related compensation expense associated with the Company's ESOP, which
is equal to the principal reduction on the loans receivable from the
trust, amounted to $101,000 in 1995 and 1994. Included as a reduction
to shareholders' equity is the employee stock ownership trust commitment
which represents the remaining indebtedness of the trust to the Company.
Employees are entitled to vote allocated shares and the ESOP trustees
are entitled to vote unallocated shares.
Defined benefit plan
--------------------
A Consumer Products division subsidiary of the Company maintains a
noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all
its employees. Plan benefits are based on stated amounts for each year
of service; funding is in accordance with statutory requirements.
Pension cost of $36,000 and $37,000 was recognized in 1995 and 1994,
respectively, calculated using a weighted-average discount rate and
weighted-average expected rate of return on plan assets of 8%. The
projected benefit obligation under the plan at December 31, 1995 was
$160,000, net of $72,000 of plan assets at fair value. Included in the
December 31, 1995 consolidated balance sheet is $21,000 of prepaid
pension cost related to the plan.
Deferred compensation plan
--------------------------
The Company maintains a deferred compensation program designed to
achieve, among other things, benefit parity for an officer of the
Company. No amount was accrued under this
F11
<PAGE> 31
program in 1995 or 1994. No amounts under this plan have been paid
since its inception and accrued in the December 31, 1995 consolidated
balance sheet is $230,000.
6. Income taxes

The provision for income taxes included in the consolidated statement of
income consists of the following:

Stock Dividend

On June 30, 1995, the Board of Directors declared a 6% stock dividend to
Shareholders of record on July 21, 1995, payable August 11, 1995.
F13
<PAGE> 33
Stock options
-------------
Under the Servotronics, Inc. 1989 Employees Stock Option Plan (the
Option Plan) and other separate agreements authorized by the Board of
Directors, the Company has granted options to its Chairman, directors
and/or officers. At December 31, 1995, 30,740 shares of common stock
are available under the Option Plan. Options may be granted at the
fair market value of the Company's stock on the date of the grant with
durations of ten years.
At December 31, 1995, the number of shares subject to and the exercise
price of options granted to its Chairman, directors and/or officers, as
adjusted for the 1995 stock dividend, are 34,980 at approximately
$ 2.83 per share, 11,660 at $2.76 per share, 23,320 at $2.24 per share
and 15,900 at approximately $6.23 per share. At December 31, 1995, all
of the 85,860 shares granted under options are exercisable.
Shareholders' rights plan
-------------------------
During 1992, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a shareholders'
rights plan (the "Rights Plan") and simultaneously declared a dividend
of one Right for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock
outstanding at August 28, 1992. The Rights do not become exercisable
until the earlier of (i) the date of the Company's public announcement
that a person or affiliated group other than Dr. Nicholas D. Trbovich
or the ESOP trust (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired, or obtained the
right to acquire, beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the Company's
common stock (excluding shares held by the ESOP trust) or (ii) ten
business days following the commencement of a tender offer that would
result in a person or affiliated group becoming an Acquiring Person.
The exercise price of a Right has been established at $30.00. Once
exercisable, each Right would entitle the holder to purchase one
one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred
Stock. In the event that any person becomes an Acquiring Person, each
Right would entitle any holder other than the Acquiring Person to
purchase common stock or other securities of the Company having a value
