          the Company and Messrs. Joseph M. Ochman, Sr., Thomas J. Auchter
          and John A. Borden, who act as trustees of the plan ("Trustees").

          the Trust were unallocated and 137,638 shares had been allocated

          ESOP in accordance with the instructions of the participating
          employees.  Unallocated shares held in the ESOP will be voted by
          the ESOP Trustees in the same proportion for and against
          proposals to stockholders as the ESOP participants and
          beneficiaries actually vote shares of Common Stock allocated to
          their individual accounts.   Any allocated shares which either
          abstain on the proposal or are not voted will be disregarded in
          determining the percentage of stock voted for and against each
          proposal by the participants and beneficiaries.
