     Messrs. Swift and Harrison received cash bonuses during 2005 as part of the Company’s quarterly incentive bonus plans. The quarterly cash bonuses paid to Mr. Swift during 2005 were based on an EBITDA percentage of capital employed in operations for which he was responsible, without any limits as a percentage of his salary. The quarterly cash bonuses paid to Mr. Harrison during 2005 under a corporate-level bonus plan were based on consolidated net income returned on capital employed, subject to a limit of 25% of his quarterly salary. The actual total 2005 quarterly bonus plan payments to Messrs. Swift and Harrison were $90,068 and $35,000, respectively.
     The Company is currently reviewing, and intends to establish targets with respect to, quarterly bonus plans for division managers and corporate staff level vice presidents for 2006.
