</TABLE>


(1)      Value is calculated on the basis of the  difference  between the option
         exercise  price and $2.563,  the closing  sale price for the  Company's
         Common  Stock at  December  31,  1997 as quoted on the Nasdaq  SmallCap
         Market, multiplied by the number of shares underlying the option.

Compensation of Directors

         Directors' Fees. The Company's directors receive no fees for attendance
at meetings of the Board of Directors, but they are reimbursed for out-of-pocket
expenses relating to attendance at the meetings;  provided,  however, Mr. Brochu
is paid an annual fee of $30,000 for his  services as Chairman of the Board,  as
well as out-of-pocket expenses.

         Stock Option Grants to Non-Employee Directors. The Director Option Plan
has  provided for the  automatic  option  grants to each  director who is not an
employee of the Company (a "Non-Employee Director") as follows: (i) 25,000 share
option upon initial election and (ii) 5,000 share option on March 1 of each year
thereafter. The per share option price is equal to 100% of the fair market value
of the  Common  Stock on the date of grant.  The  options  vest to the extent of
one-fourth of the shares  immediately and on each of the first three anniversary
dates of the date of grant; provided,  however, that the option may be exercised
as to the vested shares  during the term of the option  beginning six months and
one day after the date of grant.  The  options  expire on the  earlier of (i) 10
years after the date of grant  (provided,  however,  that  options  granted to a
Non-Employee  Director  who is a  party  to a  partnership  or  other  agreement
requiring a reduction in  compensation  pursuant to such agreement  based on the
value of options  granted under the Plan,  shall have a five-year term) and (ii)
one year after the Non-Employee Director ceases to be a director for any reason.

         On  December  11,  1997,  the Board  adopted,  subject  to  shareholder
approval,  the 1997 Stock Option  Plan,  which  provides  for similar  automatic
grants to Non-Employee Directors.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment Arrangements

         In  August  1996,  the  Company  entered  into  a  two-year  employment
agreement  with Joy  Solomon,  former  President  and Chief  Executive  Officer,
pursuant to which Ms.  Solomon  received  an annual base salary of $171,000  and
certain other benefits. Pursuant to a Separation Agreement and Release of Claims
("Separation  Agreement") entered into between the Company and Ms. Solomon,  Ms.
Solomon's employment with the Company terminated on December 31, 1997. Under the
Separation  Agreement,  Ms. Solomon will receive her base salary as in effect on
December  31, 1997 for the period  January 1, 1998  through  June 30,  1999.  In
addition,  the  Separation  Agreement  amended Ms.  Solomon's  stock  options to
provide that such options shall continue to vest  according to their  respective
vesting  schedules  until June 30, 1999 and shall be  exercisable  to the extent
vested  until the  options  expire in  accordance  with the terms of the  option
agreements.  The Separation Agreement contains mutual releases and is subject to
confidentiality provisions.
