PART II
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: 1996 AND 1995 FISCAL YEARS COMPARED
PLAN OF OPERATION
Over the past two fiscal years, the Company opened 66 new offices which
represents 56% of all offices at June 30, 1996. The Company plans to continue
its expansion and open new offices during the next year (although no specific
target has been set), recruit successful financial planners and acquire existing
tax preparation practices. The Company anticipates funding this growth through
operating profits and use of its short-term line of credit but anticipates the
availability of additional funds through the exercise of outstanding options and
warrants because the sale and/or resale of the common stock underlying such
securities is currently being registered pursuant to this registration. However,
there can be no assurance that the offering will be consummated or that any of
such options or warrants will be exercised.
The Company anticipates that opening new offices will increase its
revenues, but will involve a substantial increase in costs. The Company has no
basis to predict whether its new offices will have a material effect on its net
income. The Company believes that its new offices can ultimately be operated
profitably, but expansion may initially reduce the Company's profits or result
in an overall loss in future years.
During the Company's 1996 fiscal year, the Company commenced operations
of a direct mail division in order to control the substantial costs of
advertising its many offices. The Company believes that the direct mail division
will eventually result in lower advertising costs on per-office basis, as the
Company takes advantage of economies of scale. The Company intends for its
direct mail division to operate as an independent division and solicit its own
customers for its direct mail services.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1996 and 1995 Fiscal Years Compared
The Company's revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 were
$16,509,677 as compared to revenues of $9,932,161 for the prior fiscal year. The
increase in revenues for its 1996 fiscal year from its 1995 fiscal year is
attributable to: (1) the Company's opening of forty four new offices in January
1996 (the "1996 New Offices") and the acquisition of ten customer lists which
resulted in increased revenues from tax preparation services of $1,041,000; (2)
continued growth of the existing offices which resulted in increased revenues
from tax preparation services, of approximately $450,000; (3) increased
financial planning revenues of approximately $2,400,000 over all offices; and
(4) revenues of approximately $2,690,000 from its direct mailing services which
were not offered by the Company in its 1995 fiscal year.
The Company's total revenues for the year ended June 30, 1996 consist of
$8,147,986 for tax preparation services, $5,671,905 for financial planning
services and $2,689,786 for direct mailing services. The Company's total
revenues for the year ended June 30, 1995 consist of $6,657,520 for tax
preparation
1
<PAGE> 3
services and $3,274,541 for financial planning services; and $0 for direct
mailing services, which were not offered by the Company in its 1995 fiscal year.
The rapid growth in financial planning revenues compared to tax return
preparation services is primarily the result of the acquisition of Gilbert
Financial Services, Inc. ("Gilbert Financial"), which accounted for $1,200,000
of the growth in financial planning revenues. Gilbert Financial, the business of
which is now conducted in one of the Company's pre-1996 Offices, is the only
company that the Company has acquired in the past three years that concentrated
on financial planning services. The Company plans to continue to expand this
segment of the business because the Company believes that this segment has the
most earnings potential.
The remaining growth in financial planning revenues is a result of the
Company's benefiting from a year of rapidly rising equity security prices in the
marketplace, which induced clients to invest funds with the Company, generating
commission revenues for the Company. Any reduction in the rate of increase of
equity securities' prices in the marketplace could reduce the increase in
investments that the Company's clients make through the Company, and falling
market prices of securities could result in a reduction that would offset other
sources of growth in the Company's financial planning revenues. The 1996 growth
of the financial planning services was not significantly affected by the opening
of the 1996 New Offices. The Company has normally experienced a 6 to 12 month
delay after the opening of a new office before such office generates significant
financial planning revenues.
The Company's operating expenses for the 1996 fiscal year were
$15,915,148 as compared to operating expenses of $9,348,997 for the 1995 fiscal
year. The increase of 70.2% in the Company's operating expenses for its 1996
fiscal year from its 1995 fiscal year was attributable to $2,774,128 in salaries
and commissions; $791,916 in general and administrative expenses; $539,947 in
advertising; $1,682,108 for direct mail costs; $590,223 in rent; and $312,829 in
depreciation and amortization, offset by a reimbursement of financial planning
expenses of $125,000.
The increases in operating expenses are primarily the result of the
commencement of operations of the Company's Progressive Mailing division
("Progressive"), which accounted for the direct mail costs of $1,682,000,
salaries of direct mail division personnel of $626,000 and other expenses of the
division of approximately $384,000. Such expenses were incurred by Progressive
in performing services for third parties. The Company, however, began a direct
mail division in order to eventually reduce its own mailing costs for
advertising at its many offices by obtaining those services at direct cost from
its own division. As the Company continues to add offices, the Company believes
that the operation of Progressive will decrease its advertising costs on a per
office basis.
Other reasons for the increases in operating expenses are the increase in
financial planning services, the addition of the 1996 New Offices and having a
full year of operating expenses for the 22 offices opened in January of 1995.
The increase in salaries and commissions is due to increased financial
planning activities (which generates commissions that are generally shared with
the Company's employees and independent contractors) in the amount of
approximately $950,000, a non-cash compensation charge of approximately $437,000
related to the issuance of stock options, the amortization of advances to
financial planners and the forgiveness of officers' loans, $626,000 in salaries
for the direct mailing division and approximately $530,000 in salaries and
commissions for personnel working at the 1996 New Offices. The increase in
salaries and commissions that resulted from increased financial planning
activities is predominantly the result of increased investments by clients that
resulted in increased commissions.
The increase in depreciation and amortization is due primarily to the
acquisition of ten customer lists for approximately $730,000 and the capital
expenditures the Company made during the last two fiscal years. The increase in
advertising is primarily due to the 1996 New Offices. The increase in rent is
due to approximately $247,000 for the 1996 New Offices, approximately $94,000
for the direct mail division
2
<PAGE> 4
(which did not operate in the Company's 1995 fiscal year) and approximately
$249,000 in existing offices.
The increase of $791,916 in general and administrative expenses from the
Company's 1995 to its 1996 fiscal years resulted from the Company's expansion of
operations. Such increase was primarily the result of the inclusion of six
months of expenses for the 44 new offices opened in January 1996, as well as a
full year of expenses for the 22 new offices opened in January 1995. These
offices generated increases of approximately $72,000 in office supplies,
$147,000 in office expenses and $118,000 in telephone charges. In addition,
increased financial planning activities resulted in an increase of approximately
$151,000 in clearing fees, and the direct mail division (which had no operations
during the Company's 1995 fiscal year) incurred $250,000 of general and
administrative expenses during the Company's 1996 fiscal year.
Such increase in general and administrative expenses of approximately 35%
was significantly less than the approximately 66% increase in revenues between
the two fiscal years. The reasons for the discrepancy are, one, that the
revenues increased based on the inclusion of the high tax season revenues from
44 1996 New Offices but only half (January through June) of the annual expenses
associated with such offices, and, two, while the Company realized significant
growth in revenues related to Gilbert Financial, the increase in general and
administrative expenses related to such growth was nominal.
The increase in other income of $242,475 or 481% is due to the Company's
investment in partnership and an increase in realized gains of approximately
$76,000 on the sale of marketable securities. In July 1995, the Company,
together with an officer of the Company and one of its former officers, formed
an investment partnership, which yielded income of approximately $198,000 during
the Company's 1996 fiscal year. In addition, during the Company's 1996 fiscal
year, the Company liquidated marketable securities of $2,095,750 to fund its
expansion resulting in a realized gain of approximately $91,000.
The Company's income before provision for income taxes for its 1996
fiscal year is $887,373 as compared to $633,533 for its 1995 fiscal year. The
increase of 40.1% is primarily attributable to income from the investment in
partnership of approximately $198,000 and an increase in the realized gain from
sale of marketable securities of approximately $76,000. The income before
provision for income taxes of the Company's tax preparation and financial
planning segments remained approximately constant and the Company's direct mail
division operated on a break-even basis in the Company's 1996 fiscal year.
Taxes on income decreased as a percentage of income before taxes as a
result of the Company's filing consolidated tax returns for its 1996 fiscal
year. During the Company's 1995 fiscal year, the Company and JT Securities filed
separate tax returns. The Company changed its tax reporting year from a calendar
year to a fiscal year which resulted in two tax closings during its 1995 fiscal
year.
The Company's business is highly seasonal, with the majority of its
revenue earned in the first four months of the calendar year. The effect of
inflation has not been significant to the Company's business in recent years.
The segment financial information in this Prospectus should not be
construed to imply that the Company's financial planning business could be
operated as a stand alone business without the Company's tax return preparation
business as a lead in. The Company's tax return preparation business and its
financial planning business are closely linked together in that such various
lines of business generally use the same employees, assets, marketing and
facilities and can not be easily separated. The Company believes that its tax
return preparation business is inextricably intertwined with, and a necessary
adjunct to, its financial planning activities and that the two segments can be
viewed meaningfully only as a whole.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
1996 and 1995 Fiscal Years Compared
The Company's cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities was
$2,621,862 and ($2,512,849) for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The increase of approximately $5,134,711 is due primarily to an
increase in net income plus non-cash adjustments of approximately $667,000 and
an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities
of approximately $1,011,000 as a result of the Company's expansion,
approximately $2,200,000 in proceeds from the sale of marketable securities and
a decrease in the purchase of marketable securities of approximately $2,100,000.
These increases were offset by approximately $654,000 in advances to financial
planners and an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $168,000 as a
result of the Company's expansion. The increase in net income plus non-cash
adjustments consists primarily of increases in depreciation and amortization of
approximately $313,000 as a result of customer list acquisitions totaling
approximately $730,000, capital expenditures of approximately $900,000 and
increased compensation expense recognized in connection with the issuance of
stock and stock options of approximately $202,000.
Net cash used in investing activities was $2,420,386 and $1,134,377 for
the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase of
approximately $1,286,000 is primarily due to increases in capital expenditures
of approximately $282,000 and acquisitions of intangible assets of approximately
$546,000 and an investment in partnership of approximately $448,000.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $3,122,006 from
$3,806,563 to $684,557 due to proceeds of approximately $3,900,000 in connection
with the consummation of the Company's IPO in December 1994 and additional
issuances of stock.
The Company has two credit facilities with a bank. The first facility is
a line of credit for up to $2,500,000 which expires on October 31, 1997.
Borrowings under this line are in the form of short-term notes with interest
charged monthly at the bank's prime lending rate plus 1 1/2 %. At June 30, 1996,
the Company had an outstanding principal balance of $500,000.
The second credit facility is an installment note in the principal amount
of $1,000,000. The note is payable in 36 equal monthly installments of
approximately $28,000, plus interest at the bank's prime lending rate plus 1
3/4%. The final installment is due December, 1999. At June 30, 1996, the note
had an outstanding principal balance amounting to $180,556.
In July 1996, the Company acquired a building to house one of its offices
in Babylon, NY for approximately $221,000.
The Company believes that it could continue to operate without any
additional financing (other than its seasonal bank loans) during the next 12
months. The Company anticipates that it will not pay dividends on its Common
Stock in the foreseeable future, but will apply any profits to fund the
Company's expansion.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting For the
Impairment of Long Lived Assets and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed Of",
which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The
Company's adoption of SFAS No. 121 as of July 1, 1996, did not have a material
impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In October 1995, FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", which is effective for transactions entered into for fiscal years
that begin after December 15, 1995. SFAS
4
<PAGE> 6
No. 123 establishes a fair value method for accounting for stock-based
compensation plans either through recognition or disclosure. The Company's
adoption of the employee stock-based compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123 as
of July 1, 1996 will require disclosure of the pro forma net income and pro
forma net income per share amounts assuming the fair value method was adopted
July 1, 1995. The adoption of this standard will not impact the Company's
consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Business
Gilman & Ciocia, Inc. (the "Company"), which is incorporated in Delaware,
is a provider of income tax preparation and financial planning services
to individuals and businesses. The Company also provides direct mail
services through its Progressive Mailing Services ("Progressive")
division. The Company has three wholly-owned subsidiaries. They are as
follows:
JT Securities, Inc. ("JT") is a registered broker-dealer and investment
advisor, pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, respectively.
Gilbert Financial Services, Inc. ("Gilbert"), which was acquired
effective November 1, 1994, is also in the business of providing
financial services. The Company acquired the outstanding common stock of
Gilbert in exchange for 203,428 shares of the Company. Gilbert is
presently inactive.
B.T. Telemarketing, Inc. ("BT") is a telemarketing company. BT is
presently inactive.
The majority of the Company's revenues are earned from January through
June.
(b) Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its three wholly-owned subsidiaries JT, BT and Gilbert, and have been
prepared as if the entities had operated as a single consolidated group
since their respective dates of incorporation. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The investment in partnership has been accounted for under
the equity method.
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

GILMAN & CIOCIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
(c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts
receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings,
approximated fair value as of June 30, 1996, because of the relatively
short-term maturity of these instruments.
(d) Impairment of Loans
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
("SFAS") No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -
Income Recognition and Disclosures", as of July 1, 1995. The adoption of
SFAS No.118 did not have a material impact on its results of operations,
financial position or cash flows.
(e) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and
amortization is calculated using straight-line or accelerated methods
over the estimated useful lives of the assets or, for leasehold
improvements, over the lease terms which range from one to seven years.
(f) Advances to Financial Planners
The Company entered into three year agreements with independent financial
planners ("Planners"), which require the Planners to become captive
agents of the Company. In connection therewith, the Company advances
funds to financial planners. The agreements require the advances to be
forgiven in three years as long as the Planners remain independent
contractors of the Company. As such, all advances are amortized on a
straight-line basis over three years.
(g) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include the costs of $1,223,102 to acquire lists of
customer accounts and non-competition agreements.
Amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over a period of five
years and amounted to $190,817 and $1,465 for the years ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively.

GILMAN & CIOCIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
The Company's operational policy for the assessment and measurement of
any impairment in the value of the intangible assets acquired which is
other than temporary is to evaluate the recoverability and remaining life
of the intangible assets and determine whether the intangible assets
should be completely or partially written-off or the amortization period
accelerated. The Company will recognize an impairment in the value of the
intangible assets if the estimated future operating cash flows of the
intangible assets are determined to be less than their carrying amount.
If the Company determines that impairment has occurred, the measurement
of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the carrying amount of
the intangible assets over the amount of the undiscounted estimated
operating cash flows.
(h) Deferred Rent
The Company recognizes rent expense on a straight line basis over the
minimum term of the lease. The effect of such adjustment for the years
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, was approximately $54,000 and $0,
respectively.
(i) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes all revenues upon completion of the services
associated with income tax preparation and direct mail services.
Securities transactions and related commission revenue and expenses are
recorded on a trade date basis.
JT utilizes financial planners that are independent contractors of the
Company pursuant to which the Company receives a portion of the
commission revenues generated by these individuals in exchange for
providing client referrals, office space, and clerical and secretarial
support.
(j) Advertising
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.
(k) Reimbursement of Financial Planning Expenses
Based on an employment agreement between the Company and one of its
managers, the manager is required to reimburse the Company for certain
expenses incurred on behalf of the Company should he fail to achieve
certain gross revenue criteria. Based on these criteria, the Company is
entitled to be reimbursed for $125,000 of these expenses in fiscal 1996.
The Company will offset the manager's future earnings by this amount by
December 31, 1996.

================================================================================
(l) Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future
tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the basis of
assets and liabilities recorded for financial and tax reporting purposes
(Note 11).
(m) Net Income Per Share
Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are computed using the
treasury stock method, modified for stock options and warrants
outstanding in excess of 20% of the total outstanding shares of common
stock. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares outstanding
reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of
the outstanding options and warrants, unless the effect on earnings is
anti-dilutive. The assumed proceeds are used to repurchase shares of
common stock at the average market value during the period to a maximum
of 20% of the shares outstanding. The balance of the proceeds, if any,
are used to reduce outstanding debt with the assumed interest expense
savings being added to the results of operations for the reported period.
Fully diluted earnings per share also reflects the assumed use of
proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of options and warrants to
purchase common stock at the ending market price for the reported period.
(n) Reclassifications
Certain amounts as previously reported have been reclassified to conform
to the June 30, 1996 representation.
(o) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 121, "Accounting For the Impairment of Long Lived Assets and for
Long Lives Assets to the Disposed Of", which is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Company will adopt SFAS No.
121 as of July 1, 1996 and does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 121
to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.
F-15
<PAGE> 22
GILMAN & CIOCIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
In October 1995, FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", which is effective for transactions entered into for
fiscal years that begin after December 15, 1995. SFAS No. 123 establishes
a fair value method for accounting for stock-based compensation plans
either through recognition or disclosure. The Company intends to adopt
the employee stock-based compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123 as of
July 1, 1996 by disclosing the pro forma net income and pro forma net
income per share amounts assuming the fair value method was adopted July
1, 1995. The adoption of this standard will not impact the Company's
consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
2. ACQUISITIONS
(a) Intangible Assets
During fiscal 1996 and 1995, the Company acquired customer lists and
entered into non-competition agreements for approximately $730,000
and $459,000, respectively. Included in the intangibles acquired
during fiscal 1995 was a customer list and a non-competition
agreement with the former principal stockholder of Progressive.
Pro forma financial information for these acquisitions has not been
provided because they were not deemed to be material to the
consolidated results of operations of the Company.
(b) Gilbert
On February 10, 1995, the Company acquired all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of Gilbert in exchange for 203,428 shares
of the Company's common stock. The acquisition was effective as of
November 1, 1994 and has been accounted for as a pooling of
interests.

agreements for office space contain escalation clauses based
principally upon real estate taxes, building maintenance and utility
costs. The following is a schedule by year of future minimum rental

(b) Internal Revenue Code Provisions for Penalties of Tax Preparers
The Company's business of preparing income tax returns subjects it to
potential civil liabilities under the Internal Revenue Code. Although
the Company believes it complies with all applicable laws and
regulations, no assurance can be given that the Company will never
incur any material fines or penalties.
F-19
<PAGE> 26
GILMAN & CIOCIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
(c) Professional Liability or Malpractice Insurance
The Company does not maintain any professional liability or
malpractice insurance policy. Although the Company believes it
complies with all applicable laws and regulations, no assurance can
be given that the Company will not be subject to professional
liability or malpractice suits.
(d) Clearing Agreement
All securities transactions are introduced and cleared on a fully
disclosed basis through a correspondent broker that is a member of
the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "Broker") pursuant to a
clearing agreement (the "Agreement"). Accordingly, JT operates under
the exemptive provisions of Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC")
Rule 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii).
The Agreement provides the Broker with liens upon all cash and
receivables held by the Broker which totalled approximately $46,000
at June 30, 1996. These liens secure the liabilities and obligations
of the Company to the Broker.
(e) Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts
receivable. The Company maintains its temporary cash investments with
high quality financial institutions. The highly seasonal nature of
the Company's business results in the periodic accumulation of cash
in amounts in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. The Company
utilizes several financial institutions at these times to minimize
the exposure for potential losses.
(f) Net Capital Requirements
JT is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule of the SEC, which
requires the maintenance of minimum regulatory net capital and
requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital,
both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At June 30, 1996, JT had
net capital of $1,861,884 and a net capital requirement of $25,000.
F-20
<PAGE> 27
GILMAN & CIOCIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
(g) Financial Instruments with Off-balance Sheet Risk
In the normal course of business, JT executes, as an agent,
transactions on behalf of customers. If the agency transactions do
not settle because of failure to perform by either the customer or
the counterpart, JT may be obligated to discharge the obligation of
the nonperforming party and, as a result, may incur a loss if the
market value of the security is different from the contract amount of
the transactions.
JT does not anticipate nonperformance by customers or counterparties
in the above situation. JT's policy is to monitor its market exposure
and counterpart risk. In addition, JT has a policy of reviewing, as
considered necessary, the credit standing of each counterpart and
customer with which it conducts business.
(h) Litigation
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits which are in the early
stages of discovery and therefore no conclusion can be made by legal
counsel as to the outcome. It is the opinion of management that the
outcome of the pending lawsuits will not materially affect the
operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.
8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
(a) Public Offering
In December 1994, the Company consummated its initial public offering
("IPO") of 507,926 units, including the underwriter's overallotment
option, of its securities to the public for $7.00 per unit. Each unit
consisted of two shares of the Company's common stock and a warrant
to purchase another share of common stock at $4.67 per share.
Proceeds of the offering less underwriting discounts of approximately
$278,000 were approximately $3,277,000. Expenses for the IPO totaled
approximately $190,000, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of
approximately $3,087,000.
In connection with the IPO, the Company issued warrants to purchase
50,783 units of common stock to the underwriter.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
(b) Warrants
(i) 239,975 Class B warrants outstanding were originally issued in
connection with a private placement financing that took place
in fiscal 1994 and are held by the Company's warrantholders.
Each warrant grants the holder the right to purchase one share
of common stock at an exercise price of $3.13 per share and
expires in September 2003.
(ii) The remaining 507,926 and 50,783 warrants outstanding consist
of those issued to the public and the underwriter,
respectively, in connection with the IPO. Each warrant issued
to the public grants the holder the right to purchase one share
of common stock at an exercise price of $4.67 and expires in
September 1997. The warrants issued to the underwriter grant
the holder the right to purchase two shares of common stock and
a warrant to purchase another share of common stock at a
exercise price of $4.67 and expire in September 1999. These
warrants are to be registered in connection with the Company's
outstanding Registration Statement with the SEC (Note 8(f)).
(c) Stock Option Agreements and Stock Option Plan
The Company has granted 695,000 options to purchase shares of the
Company's common stock to three individuals and two consultants. The
vesting period of such options ranges from upon grant to 8.5 years
from the date of grant. The options expire 3 - 14.5 years from the
date of grant. Of these options, 571,000 options were exercisable at
June 30, 1996.
In September 1993, the Company's Board of Directors and Stockholders
adopted the Company's Joint Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option
Plan, (the "Option Plan"). The Option Plan provides for the granting,

STOCK OPTION PLAN
On September 14, 1993, the Company adopted the Company's 1993 Joint
Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, as amended October 14, 1993 (the
"Plan"), pursuant to which the Company may grant options to purchase up to an
aggregate of 816,000 shares. Such options may be intended to qualify as
"incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or they may be intended not to qualify under
such Section ("Non-Qualified Options").
The Plan is administered by Seth Akabas and Louis Karol, the committee of
independent directors of the Board of Directors of the Company, which has
authority to determine the persons to whom the options may be granted, the
number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each option, the time or times
at which the options may be granted or exercised, whether the options will be
Incentive Options or Non-Qualified Options, and other terms and provisions of
the options. The exercise price of the Incentive Stock Options granted under the
Plan may not be less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on
the date of grant (110% of such value if granted to a person owning in excess of
ten percent of the Company's securities). Options granted under the Plan may not
have a term longer than 10 years from the date of grant (five years if granted
to a person owning in excess of ten percent of the Company's securities) and may
not be granted more than ten years from the date of adoption of the Plan.
INDEMNIFICATION
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that
eliminates or limits the personal financial liability of the Company's
directors, except in situations where there has been a breach of the duty of
loyalty, failure to act in good faith, intentional misconduct or violation of
the law.
In addition, the Company's By-laws include provisions to indemnify its
officers and directors and other persons against expenses, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement in connection with threatened, pending or completed
suits or proceedings against such persons by reason of serving or having served
as officers, directors or in other capacities, except in relation to matters
with respect to which persons shall be determined to have acted not in good
faith, unlawfully or not in the best interests of the Company. With respect to
matters as to which the Company's officers and directors and others are
determined to be liable for misconduct or negligence in the performance of their
duties, the Company's By-laws provide for indemnification only to the extent
that the Company determines that such person acted in good faith and in a manner
not opposed to the best interests of the Company.

ACT OF 1933 MAY BE PERMITTED TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR PERSONS

CONTROLLING THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, THE COMPANY HAS
BEEN INFORMED THAT IN THE OPINION OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION,
